EN Documented engine.getUserById wasn't found

[Lauriichen]

Hello,
so I'm trying to make a script in js that allows the user to type (example prefix: !) !follow to get the bot into his/her channel.
But Sinusbot don't want to execute my event for that correctly.
Everytime I try to use that command it says "engine.getUserById is not a function" even though it is documented on the Scripting Engine documentation page (https://sinusbot.github.io/scripting-docs/)
Does someone has an idea for a work around?

Here the current script

const ENQUEUE           = 1 << 13;
registerPlugin({
    name: 'follow command',
    version: '1.0',
    backends: ['discord'],
    engine: '>= 0.13.37',
    description: 'Implements the !follow and !goaway command',
    author: 'Lauriichan <[email protected]>',
    vars: [{
        name: 'defaultChannel',
        title: 'Name or ID of the default channel (needed for !goaway)',
        type: 'channel'
    }]
}, function (config) {
    const ENGINE = require('engine');
    const BACKEND = require('backend');
    const EVENT = require('event');

    EVENT.on('message', function (event) {
        var client = event.author();
        if (client.isSelf()) {
            return;
        }
        var id = client.id();
        var user = ENGINE.getUserById(id);

        if((user.privileges() & ENQUEUE) == 0) {
            return;
        }

        var text = event.content();
        if(!text.startsWith(ENGINE.getCommandPrefix())) {
            return;
        }
        text = text.replace(ENGINE.getCommandPrefix(), "");

        switch(text) {
            case "follow": {
                var channel = client.getAudioChannel();
                if(channel == null) {
                    return;
                }
                ENGINE.log('Trying to follow (' + client.name() + ') - moving to (' + channel.name() + ').');
                BACKEND.getBotClient().moveTo(channel);
            }
            case "goaway": {
                var channel = BACKEND.getChannelById(config.defaultChannel);
                ENGINE.log('Going back to my default channel (' + channel.name() + ').');
                BACKEND.getBotClient().moveTo(channel);
            }
        }

    });
});

EDIT:
I just used a array filter now

You want to use BACKEND.getClientByID()
The Engine user functions are for the Sinusbot webinterface user not the teamspeak clients

Still weird that engine.getUserById is not a function - it should be available - even though its doing something different to what you need for your usecase

No I wanted the Sinusbot webinterface user that was absolutely correct but thanks for your answer

 

[Tuetchen]

Well but the Client ID in Teamspeak is a different ID than the User ID in the webinterface

var id = client.id();
var user = ENGINE.getUserById(id);

So this doesnt make sense

 

[Lauriichen]

So even though it makes no sense, that doesn't fix the bug that the function isn't available and I saw that after I looped through the array.
And like I said in my Edit I solved at with a simple Array filter now.
Here the code if you want to see it:

        var users = ENGINE.getUsers().filter(user => user.tsUid() === client.uid());
        if (users.length == 0) {
            return;
        }

        if ((users[0].privileges() & ENQUEUE) == 0) {
            return;
        }

And also, I know it doesn't really matter but that script was (as you can see on the top) for discord not teamspeak c.c
