Ranges and Limits

Some requests take an optional RequestRange parameter. This parameter should be used to specify the range of IDs to get and the number of entities to fetch. The possible options are:

• .since(id: Int, limit: Int?): Gets a list with IDs greater than this value. Note: Passing nil as limit asks Mastodon to return the default number of entities for that endpoint.
• .max(id: Int, limit: Int?): Gets a list with IDs less than or equal this value. Note: Passing nil as limit asks Mastodon to return the default number of entities for that endpoint.
• .limit(Int): Sets the maximum number of entities to get.
• .default: Applies the default values.

Omitting the range paramater on the method call has the same effect of passing .default.

Examples:

// Since + limit
let request = Timelines.home(range: .since(id: 42, limit: 30))

// Limit
let request = Timelines.home(range: .limit(30))

// Max + default limit
let request = Timelines.home(range: .max(id: 42, limit: nil))

// Default range and limit
let request = Timelines.home()
let request = Timelines.home(range: .default)
