Users

Speedrun.com allows you to query for user data, the user class allows you to get this data using this library.
To initialize a user object you use the following code replacing fishin_rod with the username you are trying to look for, and replacing user with the variable name you want associated with the user inputed.
The class takes one parameter, a username stored as a string in a variable or a string, 0 or 2+ parameters entered will give a type error.

user = speedrunapi.User("fishin_rod")

Great! You have set up a user object, now its time to do operations on that user object.
To do opperations on a user, just add one of the supported operations to the user object.
If you do the opperation id to the user it will return the id of the user put into the program.

>>> print(user.id)
jonryvl8

Or you can do it directly to the user object.

>>> print(speedrunapi.User("fishin_rod").id)
jonryvl8
