Chat.order is always "0"

Chat.order is always "0"

[ildarsaitkulov]

With limit 20 works fine, but with limit 200 returns only 100 chats.
Correct chats order returns by events updateChatOrder. And paging with them works! Thanks!

[maxvgi]

with limit 200 returns only 100 chats.

Due to the docs,

For optimal performance the number of returned chats is chosen by the library.

Tdlib will not return more then 100 chats because of it's internal limit.

Getting the list of chats is also covered by https://core.telegram.org/tdlib/getting-started#getting-the-list-of-chats.

Seems this and this might help. Can you provide some your code for reproducing? When I try to query getChats it seems works as expected: "{"@type":"chats","chat_ids":[ids],"@extra":1681692777}"

[ildarsaitkulov]

I wanna get all my chats, but tdlib returns last 100. It seems i have to pass pair chat.order and chat.id. But chat.order always equals "0"

Hm, interesting question =)

std::int64_t | order_ Descending parameter by which chats are sorted in the main chat list. If the order number of two chats is the same, they must be sorted in descending order by ID. If 0, the position of the chat in the list is undetermined.

From docs

And if you want to receive more than 100 chats use getChats with limit parameter. Also with offset if needs. Something like: {"@type": "getChats", "limit": 200, "@extra": "1"}
In response you will receive chat_ids, which you can use if need detailed information for each ("@type": "getChat", "chat_id": $id).

[ildarsaitkulov]

"limit": 200 - doesn't work, returns only 100 chats

[ildarsaitkulov]

And i can't paging it, because last chat order is equal "0"

[yaroslavche]

"limit": 200 - doesn't work, returns only 100 chats

try this: {"@type":"getChats","limit":200,"offset_order":9223372036854775807,"offset_chat_id":0}. Same behavior for you? I can't check at this moment because in response I have received empty list =) If yes, you should ask (or find existing) about this in tdlib/td.

And i can't paging it, because last chat order is equal "0"

If the order number of two chats is the same, they must be sorted in descending order by ID

[yaroslavche]

If I correctly understood what you want to achieve, than you need use offset_chat_id. For example, collected first 100. Store last chat_id. For next page you should pass just offset_chat_id. But I don't know if this is correct way. Actually this question more likely related to tdlib/td, not the extension. And I would be happy to help, but that’s all I can say. Please let me know how the problem was solved and whether it was solved at all.

Thanks! It seems bug in tdlib

[yaroslavche]

ping @levlam
Is that bug, or something wrong in this extension? Or we doing something wrong?

I have just tested with limit 20. Works fine. @ildarsaitkulov can you check please? I can't test with limit 200, cause I have just 40 channels =) Seems that not a bug in tdlib/td.
