client.broadcast.comment does not return a status

[redmrdev]

hi, when I try to post a new post, I use this code:

var dsteem = require('dsteem');
var client = new dsteem.Client('https://api.steemit.com');
....

client.broadcast.comment({
category: "a1",
parent_author:parent_author,
parent_permlink:primaryTag,
author:author,
permlink:permlink,
title:title,
body:body,
json_metadata: JSON.stringify({ tags: ['test', 'test-2', 'test-3'] }),
last_update: "string",
created:new Date().toDateString(),
children: 7,
max_accepted_payout:'1000000.000 SBD',
percent_steem_dollars: 10000,
allow_replies: true,
allow_votes: true,
allow_curation_rewards: true,
//beneficiaries:[{ account: 'gastonve', weight: 1000 }]
extensions: [
[0, {
beneficiaries: [{
account: "gastonve",
weight: 1000
}]
}]
]
},key, (err, steemResponse) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
return res.status(500).send({ message: 'Error:' + err });
}
else {
return res.status(200).send({ message: steemResponse });
}
});

but this does not return any status. what am I missing? please let me know

Hey @RubenMR I've got the same issue. Can you see your content on Steemit?

Hey @SirVeryBritish, I can see the content even though that function does not return anything.
I used another function which run ok, by the way this needs username and password from user:

function post(req,res){
steem.setAccessToken(req.body.access_token);
console.log("access_token: ",req.body.access_token );
var parent_author="".toString();
var author=req.body.author;
var permlink=req.body.permlink;
permlink=permlink.toLowerCase();
var password=req.body.password;
var tag1=req.body.tag1;
var tag2=req.body.tag2;
var tag3=req.body.tag3;
var tags = { tags: [tag1,tag2,tag3] };
var primaryTag=req.body.primaryTag;
let otherTags ="b3";
var title=req.body.title;
var body=req.body.body;
var author_parent="";
var category= "my_Category";
var json_metadata=JSON.stringify({ tags: ['test', 'test-2', 'test-3'] });
var max_accepted_payout='1000000.000 SBD';
var percent_steem_dollars=10000;
var allow_replies=true;
var allow_votes=true;
var allow_curation_rewards=true;
var wif = steem2.auth.toWif(author, password, 'posting');
var STEEM_PLUS_FEED=15;

var beneficiaries = new Array();
beneficiaries.push({
account: 'account_x',
weight: 100*STEEM_PLUS_FEED
});
var operations = [
['comment',
{
parent_author: '',
parent_permlink:primaryTag,
author: author,
permlink: permlink,
title: title,
body: body,
json_metadata : JSON.stringify({
tags: tags,
app: 'apprsd'
})
}
],
['comment_options', {
author: author,
permlink: permlink,
max_accepted_payout: '100000.000 SBD',
percent_steem_dollars: 10000,
allow_votes: true,
allow_curation_rewards: true,
extensions: [
[0, {
beneficiaries: beneficiaries
}]
]
}]
];

steem2.broadcast.send(
{ operations: operations, extensions: [] },
{ posting: wif },
function(e, r) {
if(e)
{
return res.status(500).send({ message: 'Error occurrido al publicar ' + e });
}

	else
	{
		return res.status(200).send({ message: 'Publicado: ' + r });
	}
	
}

);
}

@RubenMR Thanks for the response, I've found that #16 might be related to the issue I've experience with not seeing the new post. I've come to the conclusion that switching to steem-js was the best solution for myself.
