fix: correct request serialization and type drift against the Strava API - #208
Conversation
request-promise handled `form` natively. The axios port never mapped it
onto the request, so activities.update, pushSubscriptions.create and
segments.starSegment each send an empty payload. Strava accepts the
request, changes nothing, and returns the unmodified object, so it fails
silently.
An empty form falls through so an explicit `body` still wins, keeping the
`{ id, body: {...} }` workaround working.
Existing mocks matched only URL and Authorization, never the body, which
is why this shipped green. Update, create and star tests now assert the
decoded body.
Closes #196
Closes #206

Declared in ActivityUpdateArgs but missing from _updateAllowedProps, so it was stripped before the request and silently ignored. Refs #207
The allowed-props arrays and the TypeScript interfaces had drifted from Strava's documented models in both directions: - trainer is accepted by Create Activity and declared in ActivityCreateArgs, but was absent from _createAllowedProps, so it was stripped before the request and silently ignored - private appears in neither UpdatableActivity nor the Create Activity form params, but was sent on both Both arrays now mirror the API exactly. Refs #207
Strava honors only the last occurrence of a repeated query param, so `keys=time&keys=distance` asked for two streams and returned one, with no error. `distance` comes back unconditionally, which masked it. Verified against the live API on a public segment: keys=latlng,altitude -> distance, altitude, latlng keys=latlng&keys=altitude -> distance, altitude keys=altitude&keys=latlng -> distance, latlng Closes #201
Live responses carry more than the published reference documents, so these were absent from both the docs and the types: - DetailedAthlete: id_str, username, bio, badge_type_id, friend, follower - DetailedClub: profile, description, club_type, website, activity_types, activity_types_icon, dimensions, localized_sport_type - DetailedSegment: resource_state, starred, elevation_profile, elevation_profiles, xoms, local_legend Nested shapes were read off live responses rather than inferred: local_legend.effort_count is a string and its destination is a string, while xoms.destination is an object.

Thanks for the work!
I've added some feedback about this. Some types to check & a case where a form contains only undefined properties.
Object.keys treated { name: undefined } as a real form and
overwrote body with "". Filter undefined first; only set
config.data when params remain.
Also mark xoms.overall optional and effort_counts.female
nullable; live dumps omit overall, female can be null.

URL-encoded media type when assigning config.data: retain the populated

I did another check for any blockers. 3 comments left to verify. After tackling those I think we are good to go 👍 |
Non-empty forms replaced body, so mixed updates dropped caller-supplied fields. Merge them; form wins on duplicate keys. Encode null as empty like querystring.stringify. Keep sending private on create so existing JS callers do not regress.

I think this looks good now.

@markstos, hey, we need approval from a reviewer with write access. Can you help supply that to Moritz and get this merged now that it's passed review? |

Five fixes with one shared shape: something the caller supplies never reaches Strava, or something Strava returns is missing from the types. Nothing errors in any of these cases.
Where the evidence comes from: the first three were found by reading the code, the last two by probing the live API with a real token.
1.
formbodies were dropped entirelyrequest/request-promiseunderstoodformas a url-encoded body. The axios port never mapped it, so anything relying onformsent an empty payload. Strava accepts the request, changes nothing, and returns the unmodified object.Body actually sent before this PR:
activities.update({ id, description })""pushSubscriptions.create({ callback_url, verify_token })""segments.starSegment({ id, starred: true })""activities.create({ name, elapsed_time, ... })segments.starSegmentwas never reported but had the same cause.Fixed by mapping
options.formontoconfig.dataas url-encoded inaxiosUtility.httpRequest. Axios already setsContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencodedfor string data. An empty form falls through deliberately, so the{ id, body: {...} }workaround adopted for #206 still works, andpostUpload'sFormDatapath is untouched.2.
hide_from_homewas stripped before the transportDeclared in
ActivityUpdateArgsand supported by Strava, but missing from_updateAllowedProps. Carried over from #207.3. Allowed-props arrays had drifted from the API
trainer(create)private(create)private(update)activities.create({ ..., trainer: 1 })silently droppedtrainer. Both arrays now mirror the API.4. List query params were sent in a form Strava ignores
getQSemitted arrays as repeated params. Strava honors only the last occurrence, anddistanceis always returned, which hid it. Confirmed live against a public segment:Array values are now comma-joined. Fixed in
getQS, so it applies to every endpoint, not just streams.5. Types were missing fields the live API returns
These are absent from Strava's published reference too, so only live traffic surfaces them:
DetailedAthlete:id_str,username,bio,badge_type_id,friend,followerDetailedClub:profile,description,club_type,website,activity_types,activity_types_icon,dimensions,localized_sport_typeDetailedSegment:resource_state,starred,elevation_profile,elevation_profiles,xoms,local_legendNested shapes were read off live responses rather than guessed.
local_legend.effort_countis a string and itsdestinationis a string, whilexoms.destinationis an object.Breaking
privateis removed fromActivityCreateArgs. TypeScript callers passing it toactivities.create()get a compile error. Runtime impact is nil, sinceprivateis not in Strava's create form params and was being sent and ignored.Tests
The existing mocks matched only URL and
Authorization, never the request body, which is how all of this shipped green. Two tells: the sport-type test passedsportType, not a real argument, and the streams test passedkeysas a pre-joined string, never an array.Create, update, push-subscription create, star-segment and streams now assert what actually goes on the wire. Reverting any single production change fails its own tests:
axiosUtilityfails 5, allowed-props fails 2,getQSfails 1. With everything, 88 pass.Notes
Supersedes #207, which resolves #206 by making
bodyrequired. That is breaking for every v3 caller and leaves #196 andsegments.starSegmentbroken. Itshide_from_homefix is included here.The same audit turned up three dead
clubsendpoints, filed separately as #209.Closes #196
