Product Hunt User Posts API

Q: How do I page a user's posts?

When `data.page.hasMore` is true, send `data.page.nextCursor` as `cursor` with the same username and `kind`. A cursor from one list does not work on another.

Q: Which list does kind select?

`made` is what the user built, `submitted` is what they posted, and `voted` is what they upvoted. The response echoes the list in `data.kind`.

Q: How do I get the full post for one of these rows?

Use the row's `slug` on `GET /v1/product-hunt/posts/{slug}`. A row only carries `id`, `slug` and `name`.

Q: How do I tell a missing user from an empty list?

Check `data.lookupStatus`. A username with no public profile returns `not_found`; a real user with nothing in that list returns `found` with `posts: []`.

One user's made, submitted or voted posts, 20 a page, with a cursor to continue.

About this endpoint

GET /v1/product-hunt/users/{username}/posts returns data.posts, data.username, data.kind, data.totalCount and data.page. Choose the list with kind: made, submitted or voted. Each post is a reference with id, slug and name; pages hold up to 20.

Start from GET /v1/product-hunt/users/{username}, which returns the first page of each list and a nextCursor for it. Send that cursor here with the same username and kind to continue. A cursor belongs to the list it came from. A username with no public profile returns lookupStatus: not_found and an empty list.

Product Hunt pages these lists by position over an order with ties, so a post can appear on two pages and another can be skipped; de-duplicate by id.
