Like what? The feature is probably implemented, you just need to import it.

I think I'll start working on adding some social actions to this. Don't use them badly, this is so that eventually there will be a good CLI interface for Scratch using meowclient.

Meowclient v4 is in progress!
I have changed my focus in Meowclient from just adding the bare minimum to working on something that will hopefully reach 99% of the feature list of the Scratch community.
The source code of v4 is on the main branch at https://github.com/webdev03/meowclient but if you would like to view the source code of v3.1 you can go to https://github.com/webdev03/meowclient/tree/v3.1.0
Unfortunately because of the new features I am adding to meowclient I had to add a few dependencies. Because of them, Meowclient v4 is ESM only. This means that you will have to add
"type": "module"
in your package.json file to successfully import meowclient. There are a lot of technical reasons as to why ESM is superior but this is not what I want to talk about here.

Phew! I can stop talking about the mess of ESM vs CJS. Here is a list of most of the features I have added so far (Including some ones already in 3.1):
  • Love and favourite on projects
  • Comment on projects
  • Search projects
  • Set project thumbnail
  • Follow and unfollow users
  • Follow and unfollow studios
  • Reply to a topic on the forums
  • Topic creation (I have not tested this yet because I don't have an excuse to create a topic)
  • Use Map to store Cloud variables instead of an object
  • Get messages
Any feature requests or breaking changes that you think would be good? Please tell me them now before v4 is out! I don't want to have to go directly from v4 to v5 because there is a slight breaking change.

Thank you everyone for using meowclient (If you use it, there are very little downloads on npm unfortunately)

Earlier I wanted to switch to TypeScript with the strict mode on. Unfortunately there were many errors which stopped me. Now that I am working on meowclient v4 I am almost finished with switching to the strict mode, forcing me to add type guards everywhere

Do you mean using the “typeof” keyword or type hints

https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#strict
When I started meowclient I forgot to enable that option. Now I decided to rework some of the code to make it compatible with the strictest mode of type checking in TypeScript.

You can help me test the alpha version of meowclient v4 by writing some code using the github repository instead of the npm package.
# Instead of running
npm install meowclient
# Run
npm install webdev03/meowclient

I have an idea, before I work on it I would like to ask for your opinion. I think it would be really cool if meowclient made it super easy to do encoding and decoding of cloud data. There would be two modes (First one much easier): a simple stateless mode where you could send and receive little packets of data, for example in a project that got the current weather, and a complex stateful mode like socket.io where each user had their own state, for example in a lichess-connected chess project.

That sounds really interesting! Could you give a code snippet of what each might look like?

Help improve the Advanced Topics (Really!)
Before you create a topic:
Always search for duplicates or other similar topics before making an umbrella topic, e.g., “The Mac Topic”.
  • Is it about something you are planning on making but haven't made yet? If so, please wait to post until you have created a working prototype. This is a key factor to keeping the ATs as clean as possible.
  • The ATs aren't technical support. It is perfectly valid to ask questions about things related to programming, but not issues with external websites, apps, or devices. Most sites have their own support system; try asking there!
  • Is it related to something you are making in Scratch? (This includes OSes and other Scratch projects) If so, please post in Collaboration, Show and Tell, or another similar forum.
  • Is your topic questionably “advanced”? Try browsing the other forums to see if your topic fits better in one of those.
  • Issues with Scratch itself should be put in Bugs and Glitches.
Before you post: Is what you're posting likely to start an argument or derail the thread (e.g., browsers, operating systems)? If so, please re-think your post!

I believe there are Python packages which do this automatically, like scratch2py. You should definitely add it, it would make cloud interactions with servers really easy

Also chess.com is better lole

I know, I don't even use lichess, but I thought that it might be easier to use

Here's some pseudocode, please tell me if you have even a tiny thing to change:
Simple send-receive (stateless):
const cloudConn = new CloudConnection(session, 123);
const pCloud = new PacketCloud(cloudConn);
// There are two options:
pCloud.onRequest((name, value) => {
  if(name === "ping") {
    return "pong! " + (Number(value) + 1);
  } else {
    return "hmm, I don't know what is " + name;
  }
});
// or
pCloud.on("ping", (value) => {
  return "pong!" + (Number(value) + 1);
})
Stateful:
let counter = 0;
const cloudConn = new CloudConnection(session, 123);
const sCloud = new SocketCloud(cloudConn);
// Could be a miniature reimplementation of socket.io, this one will take much longer for me to add
sCloud.on("connection", (socket) => {
  socket.data = {pings: 1};
  socket.on("ping", () => {
    socket.data.pings++;
    return socket.data.pings;
  })
})

The stateful code would make it easier to manage the state of each user
