Invariant Violation: [14,"<<-Infinity>>",1573709572775,false] is not usable as a native method argument

I’m using snoowrap in react native, and got the module to import without errors by importing the required modules according to @danhab99 here https://github.com/not-an-aardvark/snoowrap/issues/48#issuecomment-417948299

I ended up with this package.json

My snoowrap object is instanced successfully with these params

import snoowrap from 'snoowrap';
// later in componentDidMount
const r = new snoowrap({
            userAgent: 'RedditAgent',
            clientId: 'my-id',
            clientSecret: 'my-secret',
            refreshToken: 'my-token',
        });
r.config({debug: true, proxies: false});
console.log('getting hot', r);
r.getHot('AskReddit', {limit: 100}).then(res => console.log('res', res)).catch(err => console.error(err));

I get the following output.

I think this might be related to the snoowrap printed property _nextRequestTimestamp: -Infinity, but I’ve been on this a few days and I’m not sure what else to try. Thanks!

[bibyzan]

I was able to resolve the error by adding

r._nextRequestTimestamp = -1;

and then

npm i -S base-64

and then adding these lines at the top of my project index.js

import {decode, encode} from 'base-64'

if (!global.btoa) {
    global.btoa = encode;
}

if (!global.atob) {
    global.atob = decode;
}

And I finally have some json data to work with! Thanks so much!!

[SpyTec]

That is a normal JavaScript function, which you can google for help as it’s not so specific to snoowrap. Try this https://stackoverflow.com/a/51525605
