Google-api-nodejs-client: Gmail API - Users.messages: list - Query Parameters are Ignored

[leecheve]

The optional query parameters for Gmail API documented in Users.messages: list are ignored.

Parameter name | Value | Description
-- | -- | --
labelIds[] | list | Only return messages with labels that match all of the specified label IDs.
maxResults | unsigned integer | Maximum number of messages to return.
q | string | Only return messages matching the specified query.

code sample

  var gmail = google.gmail({auth: auth, version: 'v1'});
  gmail.users.messages.list({
    userId: 'me',
    maxResults: 1,
  }, function(err, res) {
    if (err) {
      console.log('The Gmail API returned an error: ' + err);
      return;
    }

    console.log(res);
  });

The call in the code above should return 1 result at max, but it returns all the messages in the mailbox. The same happens when a query is specified.

Check #469 issue, it seems the same problem

[leecheve]

@inacior Thanks!! I did what bartman did in #469 to set the query parameter manually and it worked.

Greetings folks! Please check your package.json. Are you installing both googleapis and google-auth-library? For a while our docs suggested to do this, but it is very wrong. You should make sure you're only installing googleapis, and following this sample:
https://github.com/google/google-api-nodejs-client/blob/master/samples/gmail/list.js

Can you verify any of this?
