docs on using JS interface

[dcsan]

I was trying to get at some variables from a JS Object macro and can't seem to find any docs.

basically I used

   let uservars = rs.getUservars();
console.log("uservars", uservars)

but this seems to give a hash using the userID:

uservars { 
  o_IxAuE6Tz2pZMQM95_6buvQLWKY: 
     { topic: 'dev-intro',
       trigger: 'start',
     __initialmatch__: 'start',
     __history__: { input: [Object], reply: [Object] },
     subscribe: 1,
     openid: 'o_IxAuE6Tz2pZMQM95_6buvQLWKY',
     nickname: 'DC | Rikai Labs',
     sex: 1,
     language: 'en',
     city: '',
     province: '',
     country: '中国',
     subscribe_time: 1484794957,
     remark: '',
     groupid: 0,
     tagid_list: [],
     __lastmatch__: 'start',
     hintcount: 31,
     usercolor: 'blue' } }

is this correct? The JS object doesn't just have the uservars directly accessible I would need to find it off the userID hash? that seems odd.
Then, I'm sure there was a method for getUserId() but I can't seem to find that either in the docs.

The one you're looking for is rs.currentUser()

rs.getUservars() with no argument returns the hash of all users + all their vars; by passing a specific username, rs.getUservars(rs.currentUser()) it returns a hash of just that user's variables at the top level.

great, thanks! Are these documented anywhere? otherwise would it help if I made a PR for the wiki?

I added a page to the wiki

getUservars() and currentUser() are documented, but perhaps they could document more info on what the returned structure looks like.

thanks, noted, updated wiki entry. closing.
