createMetaData error?

[shiffman]

Hello! I'm so excited to find this package! I've been using Twit and other node.js implementations for many years and have been hoping to find something up-to-date and actively maintained!

I ran across an issue attempting to add "alt text" to an image, this fails for me with a 400 error:

const mediaId = await client.v1.uploadMedia('rainbow.png', { type: 'png' });
await client.v1.createMediaMetadata(`${mediaId}`, { alt_text: 'Rainbow!' });

However, I am able to get it to work by calling post() directly.

const mediaId = await client.v1.uploadMedia('rainbow.png', { type: 'png' });
await client.v1.post('media/metadata/create.json', {
  media_id: `${mediaId}`,
  alt_text: {
    text: 'Rainbow!',
  },
});

My repo of examples is in progress here: https://github.com/shiffman/Twitter-Bots-F21

Hello! Thank you for your support :)
You're right, the parameters of createMediaMetadata are incorrectly typed.
It should be fixed on the next update that should come in the next few days!

Hi,
1.6.0 version, that fixes the issue, is now available on npm :)
You can safely use .createMediaMetadata again!

Thanks you for the report!
