See this post here and here for information around the undocumented time limit on unliking a liked post.

.getTopic({ id })
.then(res => console.log(res)}
.catch(err => console.log(err))Topics have a chunk size of 20, which mean you will only get 20 posts back in one get. This can cause weird problems with nested replies and long threads. You can override this by passing print: true. Note this sets the chunk size to 1000. See API: Getting all posts in a topic

# Clone the repo
$ git clone [email protected]:theworkshop/discourse-js.git
$ cd discourse-js
$ pwd|pbcopy # Copies the current working directory /path/to/discourse-js/
# cd into the directory you want to test locally.
$ npm install /path/to/discourse-js/Why not just use npm link?:
For speed and productivity. Symlinks do not work with React Native 💩📲.
Read more about npm link and why we do this here.
You will also need a Discourse server running. This can be local or running in the cloud.
Bump the version of the package:
yarn version --patch/--minor/--major
Our preversion, version, and postversion will run, create a new tag in git and push it to our remote repository. The updated package will then be published on npm.
