Chat API is built on top of real-time (XMPP) protocol. In order to use it, you need to setup real-time connection with QuickBlox Chat server and use it to exchange data. By default real-time Chat works over secure TLS connection.
Connect to Chat server
To connect to the Chat server use the code snippet below.
// Chat connection configuration
QBChatService.ConfigurationBuilder configurationBuilder = new QBChatService.ConfigurationBuilder();
configurationBuilder.setSocketTimeout(300);
configurationBuilder.setUseTls(true);
configurationBuilder.setKeepAlive(true);
configurationBuilder.setAutojoinEnabled(false);
configurationBuilder.setAutoMarkDelivered(true);
configurationBuilder.setReconnectionAllowed(true);
configurationBuilder.setAllowListenNetwork(true);
configurationBuilder.setPort(5223);
QBChatService.setConfigurationBuilder(configurationBuilder);
QBChatService chatService = QBChatService.getInstance();
chatService.login(qbUser, new QBEntityCallback() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Object o, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
// Chat connection configuration
val configurationBuilder = QBChatService.ConfigurationBuilder()
configurationBuilder.socketTimeout = 300
configurationBuilder.isUseTls = true
configurationBuilder.isKeepAlive = true
configurationBuilder.isAutojoinEnabled = false
configurationBuilder.setAutoMarkDelivered(true)
configurationBuilder.isReconnectionAllowed = true
configurationBuilder.setAllowListenNetwork(true)
configurationBuilder.port = 5223
QBChatService.setConfigurationBuilder(configurationBuilder)
val chatService = QBChatService.getInstance()
chatService.login(qbUser, object : QBEntityCallback<Void> {
override fun onSuccess(o: Void?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
| setSocketTimeout | Chat socket read timeout in seconds. Default: 60. |
| setUseTls | TLS security mode used when making the connection. Default: true . |
| setKeepAlive | Keep-alive option for a socket connection. Keep-alive is the option allowing to detect a stale connection. Default: true. |
| setAutojoinEnabled | Automatically join dialogs loaded or created on the server. Default: false. |
| setAutoMarkDelivered | Automatically mark the received messages as delivered. Default: true . |
| setReconnectionAllowed | Android SDK reconnects automatically to the Chat server when the connection to the server is lost. Default: true. |
| setAllowListenNetwork | Allow SDK to listen to changes of network states. Default: true. |
| setPort | Chat connection port number. Default: 5223. |
Check if connected to Chat server
Check the connection state using ConnectionListener.
ConnectionListener connectionListener = new ConnectionListener() {
@Override
public void connected(XMPPConnection xmppConnection) {
}
@Override
public void authenticated(XMPPConnection xmppConnection, boolean b) {
}
@Override
public void connectionClosed() {
}
@Override
public void connectionClosedOnError(Exception e) {
}
@Override
public void reconnectionSuccessful() {
}
@Override
public void reconnectingIn(int i) {
}
@Override
public void reconnectionFailed(Exception e) {
}
};
QBChatService.getInstance().addConnectionListener(connectionListener);
val connectionListener = object : ConnectionListener {
override fun connected(xmppConnection: XMPPConnection) {
}
override fun authenticated(xmppConnection: XMPPConnection, b: Boolean) {
}
override fun connectionClosed() {
}
override fun connectionClosedOnError(e: Exception) {
}
override fun reconnectionSuccessful() {
}
override fun reconnectingIn(i: Int) {
}
override fun reconnectionFailed(e: Exception) {
}
}
QBChatService.getInstance().addConnectionListener(connectionListener)
Disconnect from Chat server
Disconnect from the Chat server using the snippet below.
final QBChatService chatService = QBChatService.getInstance();
boolean isLoggedIn = chatService.isLoggedIn();
if (!isLoggedIn) {
return;
}
chatService.logout(new QBEntityCallback<Void>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid, Bundle bundle) {
chatService.destroy();
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val chatService = QBChatService.getInstance()
val isLoggedIn = chatService.isLoggedIn
if (!isLoggedIn) {
return
}
chatService.logout(object : QBEntityCallback<Void> {
override fun onSuccess(aVoid: Void?, bundle: Bundle?) {
chatService.destroy()
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Autoreconnect to Chat
The SDK reconnects automatically when the connection to the Chat server is lost. There is a way to disable it and then manage it manually.
QBChatService.getInstance().setReconnectionAllowed(false);
QBChatService.getInstance().isReconnectionAllowed = false
Chat in background
When your application goes background, you should disconnect from the Chat server to be able to receive offline messages. When your application goes foreground, you should connect to the Chat server to become online and start sending and receiving messages.
Use androidx.lifecycle.LifecycleObserver to determine when the application goes background.
public class BackgroundListener implements LifecycleObserver {
@OnLifecycleEvent(Lifecycle.Event.ON_PAUSE)
void onBackground() {
QBChatService.getInstance().logout(new QBEntityCallback<Void>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid, Bundle bundle) {
QBChatService.getInstance().destroy();
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
}
}
class BackgroundListener : LifecycleObserver {
@OnLifecycleEvent(Lifecycle.Event.ON_PAUSE)
internal fun onBackground() {
QBChatService.getInstance().logout(object : QBEntityCallback<Void> {
override fun onSuccess(v: Void?, b: Bundle?) {
QBChatService.getInstance().destroy()
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
}
}
Make sure to add an instance of the created lifecycle observer class to the androidx.lifecycle.ProcessLifecycleOwner() to process lifecycle changes within your app.
public class App extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
ProcessLifecycleOwner.get().getLifecycle().addObserver(new BackgroundListener());
}
}
class App : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
ProcessLifecycleOwner.get().lifecycle.addObserver(BackgroundListener())
}
}
Dialogs
All chats between users are organized in dialogs. There are 3 types of dialogs:
- 1-1 dialog - a conversation between 2 users.
- group dialog - a conversation between the specified list of users.
- public dialog - an open conversation. Any user from your app can subscribe to it.
You need to create a new dialog and then use it to chat with other users. You also can obtain a list of your existing dialogs.
Create new dialog
Create 1-1 dialog
You need to pass QBDialogType.PRIVATE as a type and ID of an opponent you want to create a chat with.
ArrayList<Integer> occupantIdsList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
occupantIdsList.add(123);
QBChatDialog dialog = new QBChatDialog();
dialog.setType(QBDialogType.PRIVATE);
dialog.setOccupantsIds(occupantIdsList);
// or just use DialogUtils
//QBChatDialog dialog = DialogUtils.buildPrivateDialog(recipientId);
QBRestChatService.createChatDialog(dialog).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog result, Bundle params) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException responseException) {
}
});
val occupantIdsList = ArrayList<Int>()
occupantIdsList.add(123)
val dialog = QBChatDialog()
dialog.type = QBDialogType.PRIVATE
dialog.setOccupantsIds(occupantIdsList)
// or just use DialogUtils
//QBChatDialog dialog = DialogUtils.buildPrivateDialog(recipientId);
QBRestChatService.createChatDialog(dialog).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog> {
override fun onSuccess(result: QBChatDialog?, params: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(responseException: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Create group dialog
You need to pass QuickBlox DialogType.GROUP as a type and IDs of opponents, you want to create a chat with.
ArrayList<Integer> occupantIdsList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
occupantIdsList.add(123);
occupantIdsList.add(234);
occupantIdsList.add(345);
occupantIdsList.add(456);
QBChatDialog dialog = new QBChatDialog();
dialog.setName("Group chat");
dialog.setType(QBDialogType.GROUP);
dialog.setOccupantsIds(occupantIdsList);
// or just use DialogUtils
// QBChatDialog dialog = DialogUtils.buildDialog("Chat with Friends", QBDialogType.GROUP, occupantIdsList);
QBRestChatService.createChatDialog(dialog).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog result, Bundle params) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException responseException) {
}
});
val occupantIdsList = ArrayList<Int>()
occupantIdsList.add(123)
occupantIdsList.add(234)
occupantIdsList.add(345)
occupantIdsList.add(456)
val dialog = QBChatDialog()
dialog.name = "Group chat"
dialog.type = QBDialogType.GROUP
dialog.setOccupantsIds(occupantIdsList)
// or just use DialogUtils
// QBChatDialog dialog = DialogUtils.buildDialog("Chat with Friends", QBDialogType.GROUP, occupantIdsList);
QBRestChatService.createChatDialog(dialog).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog> {
override fun onSuccess(result: QBChatDialog?, params: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(responseException: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Create public dialog
It's possible to create a public dialog, so any user from your application can subscribe to it. There is no a list with occupants, this dialog is just open for everybody. You need to pass QBDialogType.PUBLIC_GROUP as a type.
QBChatDialog dialog = new QBChatDialog();
dialog.setName("Public group chat");
dialog.setType(QBDialogType.PUBLIC_GROUP);
QBRestChatService.createChatDialog(dialog).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog result, Bundle params) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException responseException) {
}
});
val dialog = QBChatDialog()
dialog.name = "Public group chat"
dialog.type = QBDialogType.PUBLIC_GROUP
QBRestChatService.createChatDialog(dialog).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog> {
override fun onSuccess(result: QBChatDialog?, params: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(responseException: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Retrieve list of dialogs
It's common to request all your conversations on every app login.
QBRequestGetBuilder requestBuilder = new QBRequestGetBuilder();
requestBuilder.setLimit(50);
//requestBuilder.setSkip(100);
//requestBuilder.sortAsc("last_message_date_sent");
QBRestChatService.getChatDialogs(null, requestBuilder).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<ArrayList<QBChatDialog>>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(ArrayList<QBChatDialog> result, Bundle params) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException responseException) {
}
});
val requestBuilder = QBRequestGetBuilder()
requestBuilder.limit = 50
//requestBuilder.setSkip(100);
//requestBuilder.sortAsc("last_message_date_sent");
QBRestChatService.getChatDialogs(null, requestBuilder).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<ArrayList<QBChatDialog>> {
override fun onSuccess(result: ArrayList<QBChatDialog>?, params: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(responseException: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
It will return all your 1-1 dialogs, group dialog, and public dialogs you are subscribed to.
If you want to retrieve only conversations updated after some specific date time, you can pass the filter. For example, you can apply gt filter to updated_at and id fields using requestBuilder. This is useful if you cache conversations somehow and do not want to obtain the whole list of your conversations on every app start. You can use the other filters:
- lt (Less Than operator)
- lte (Less Than or Equal to ...)
- gt (Greater Than operator)
- gte (Greater Than or Equal to ...)
- eq (Equals to ...)
- ne (Not Equal to ...)
- in (Contained IN array ...)
- nin (Not contained IN array)
- all (ALL contained IN array)
- ctn (Contains ...)
Update dialog
Update a group dialog name or photo using QBRequestUpdateBuilder.
QBChatDialog dialog = new QBChatDialog();
dialog.setDialogId("dsfsd934329hjhkda98793j2"); // To make updates - the dialog must contain dialogId
dialog.setName("Team room");
dialog.setPhoto("https://new_photo_url"); // or it can be ID of uploaded File with QBContent
QBRequestUpdateBuilder requestBuilder = new QBRequestUpdateBuilder();
QBRestChatService.updateChatDialog(dialog, requestBuilder).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog updatedDialog, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val dialog = QBChatDialog()
dialog.dialogId = "dsfsd934329hjhkda98793j2" // To make updates - the dialog must contain dialogId
dialog.name = "Team room"
dialog.photo = "https://new_photo_url" // or it can be ID of uploaded File with QBContent
val requestBuilder = QBRequestUpdateBuilder()
QBRestChatService.updateChatDialog(dialog, requestBuilder).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog> {
override fun onSuccess(updatedDialog: QBChatDialog?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Add/Remove occupants
You can add/remove occupants in group and public dialogs.
// To add or remove users you should pass whole QBUser model or it's ID (user.getId)
QBDialogRequestBuilder qbRequestBuilder = new QBDialogRequestBuilder();
qbRequestBuilder.addUsers(usersToAdd.toArray(new QBUser[usersToAdd.size()]));
qbRequestBuilder.removeUsers(usersToAdd.toArray(new QBUser[usersToRemove.size()]));
QBRestChatService.updateChatDialog(qbChatDialog, qbRequestBuilder).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog qbChatDialog, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
// To add or remove users you should pass whole QBUser model or it's ID (user.getId)
val qbRequestBuilder = QBDialogRequestBuilder()
qbRequestBuilder.addUsers(*usersToAdd.toTypedArray())
qbRequestBuilder.removeUsers(*usersToAdd.toTypedArray())
QBRestChatService.updateChatDialog(qbChatDialog, qbRequestBuilder).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog> {
override fun onSuccess(qbChatDialog: QBChatDialog?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Important note
Only group dialog owner can remove other users from a group chat.
Remove dialog
The following snippet is used to delete a conversation.
String dialogId = qbChatDialog.getDialogId();
boolean forceDelete = false;
QBRestChatService.deleteDialog(dialogId, forceDelete).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<Void>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val dialogId = qbChatDialog.dialogId
val forceDelete = false
QBRestChatService.deleteDialog(dialogId, forceDelete).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<Void> {
override fun onSuccess(aVoid: Void?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Or, you can use multiple dialogs deleting.
StringifyArrayList<String> qbDialogsIDs = new StringifyArrayList<>();
for (QBChatDialog dialog : qbChatDialogs) {
qbDialogsIDs.add(dialog.getDialogId());
}
boolean forceDelete = false;
QBRestChatService.deleteDialogs(qbDialogsIDs, forceDelete, null).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<ArrayList<String>>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(ArrayList<String> strings, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val qbDialogsIDs = StringifyArrayList<String>()
for (dialog in qbChatDialogs) {
qbDialogsIDs.add(dialog.dialogId)
}
val forceDelete = false
QBRestChatService.deleteDialogs(qbDialogsIDs, forceDelete, null).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<ArrayList<String>> {
override fun onSuccess(strings: ArrayList<String>?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Pay attention
This request will remove this conversation for a current user, but other users still will be able to chat there. The
forceDeleteparameter is used to completely remove the dialog. Only group dialog owner can remove the group dialog for all users.
Chat history
Every chat conversation stores its chat history that you can retrieve.
QBMessageGetBuilder messageGetBuilder = new QBMessageGetBuilder();
messageGetBuilder.setLimit(100);
// If you want to retrieve messages using filtering:
//messageGetBuilder.gte("date_sent", "508087800");
//messageGetBuilder.lte("date_sent", "1170720000");
//messageGetBuilder.markAsRead(false);
QBRestChatService.getDialogMessages(qbChatDialog, messageGetBuilder).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<ArrayList<QBChatMessage>>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(ArrayList<QBChatMessage> qbChatMessages, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val messageGetBuilder = QBMessageGetBuilder()
messageGetBuilder.limit = 100
// If you want to retrieve messages using filtering:
//messageGetBuilder.gte("date_sent", "508087800")
//messageGetBuilder.lte("date_sent", "1170720000")
//messageGetBuilder.markAsRead(false)
QBRestChatService.getDialogMessages(qbChatDialog, messageGetBuilder).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<ArrayList<QBChatMessage>> {
override fun onSuccess(qbChatMessages: ArrayList<QBChatMessage>?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
If you want to retrieve chat messages using pagination by date or filtering, you can use filters. For example, you can apply gt or lt filters using messageGetBuilder.
Pay attention
All retrieved chat messages will be marked as read after the request. If you decide not to mark chat messages as read, then pass
markAsReadparameter asfalsetomessageGetBuilder.
Send/Receive chat messages
Receive messages
To receive notifications from SDK about all incoming messages from all dialogs, use QBIncomingMessagesManager listener.
QBChatService chatService = QBChatService.getInstance();
QBIncomingMessagesManager incomingMessagesManager = chatService.getIncomingMessagesManager();
incomingMessagesManager.addDialogMessageListener(new QBChatDialogMessageListener() {
@Override
public void processMessage(String dialogID, QBChatMessage qbChatMessage, Integer senderID) {
}
@Override
public void processError(String dialogID, QBChatException e, QBChatMessage qbChatMessage, Integer senderID) {
}
});
val chatService = QBChatService.getInstance()
val incomingMessagesManager = chatService.incomingMessagesManager
incomingMessagesManager.addDialogMessageListener(object : QBChatDialogMessageListener {
override fun processMessage(dialogID: String?, qbChatMessage: QBChatMessage?, senderID: Int?) {
}
override fun processError(dialogID: String?, e: QBChatException?, qbChatMessage: QBChatMessage?, senderID: Int?) {
}
})
You can add a message listener to a particular dialog if needed.
privateDialog.addMessageListener(new QBChatDialogMessageListener() {
@Override
public void processMessage(String dialogId, QBChatMessage qbChatMessage, Integer senderId) {
}
@Override
public void processError(String dialogId, QBChatException e, QBChatMessage qbChatMessage, Integer senderId) {
}
});
privateDialog.addMessageListener(object : QBChatDialogMessageListener {
override fun processMessage(dialogId: String?, qbChatMessage: QBChatMessage?, senderId: Int?) {
}
override fun processError(dialogId: String?, e: QBChatException?, qbChatMessage: QBChatMessage?, senderId: Int?) {
}
})
Pay attention
Messages from group & public chat dialogs will be received in this callback only after you join the dialogs.
1-1 dialog
To send a message to 1-1 dialog, use the code snippet below.
QBChatMessage chatMessage = new QBChatMessage();
chatMessage.setBody("Hello QuickBlox!");
chatMessage.setSaveToHistory(true);
// If you want to use this feature without callbacks:
//try{
// privateDialog.sendMessage(chatMessage);
//} catch (SmackException.NotConnectedException e) {
//
//}
dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage, new QBEntityCallback<Void>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val chatMessage = QBChatMessage()
chatMessage.body = "Hello QuickBlox!"
chatMessage.setSaveToHistory(true)
// If you want to use this feature without callbacks:
//try{
// privateDialog.sendMessage(chatMessage);
//} catch (SmackException.NotConnectedException e) {
//
//}
dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage, object : QBEntityCallback<Void> {
override fun onSuccess(aVoid: Void?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
Note
Make sure to specify the
setSaveToHistoryfield to the message. This field is read by the server, and, consequently, the message is stored in the history. If thesetSaveToHistoryfield is not specified, the message is no longer saved on the server.
Group/public dialog
Join group/public dialog
Before you start chatting in a group/public dialog, you need to join it by calling the join() method.
for (QBChatDialog dialog : qbChatDialogs) {
if (dialog.getType() != QBDialogType.PRIVATE) {
try {
dialog.join(new DiscussionHistory());
} catch (XMPPException e) {
} catch (SmackException e) {
}
}
}
for (dialog in qbChatDialogs) {
if (dialog.type != QBDialogType.PRIVATE) {
try {
dialog.join(DiscussionHistory())
} catch (e: XMPPException) {
} catch (e: SmackException) {
}
}
}
This is a synchronous way to join dialogs, so you need to handle XMPPException and SmackException. But in case of using .performAsync() you will receive onSuccess() or onError() callbacks.
To define if you have already joined to the dialog, you should call the appropriate method from the dialog model.
anyDialog.isJoined();
anyDialog.isJoined()
Please note that there are two ways to send any message to any dialog:
- try-catch
QBChatMessage chatMessage = new QBChatMessage();
chatMessage.setBody("Hello QuickBlox!");
chatMessage.setSaveToHistory(true);
try {
dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage);
} catch (SmackException.NotConnectedException e) {
}
val chatMessage = QBChatMessage()
chatMessage.body = "Hello QuickBlox!"
chatMessage.setSaveToHistory(true)
try {
dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage)
} catch (e: SmackException.NotConnectedException) {
}
- callbacks
QBChatMessage chatMessage = new QBChatMessage();
chatMessage.setBody("Hello QuickBlox!");
chatMessage.setSaveToHistory(true);
dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage, new QBEntityCallback<Void>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val chatMessage = QBChatMessage()
chatMessage.body = "Hello QuickBlox!"
chatMessage.setSaveToHistory(true)
dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage, object : QBEntityCallback<Void> {
override fun onSuccess(aVoid: Void?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
You can use the most convenient for you, according to your application logic.
Note
Make sure to specify the
setSaveToHistoryfield to the message. This field is read by the server, and, consequently, the message is stored in the history. If thesave_to_historyfield is not specified, the message is no longer saved on the server.
Leave group/public dialog
You can leave the group/public dialog by calling the groupDialog.leave() method.
try {
groupDialog.leave();
} catch (XMPPException | SmackException.NotConnectedException e) {
}
try {
groupDialog.leave()
} catch (e: XMPPException) {
} catch (e: SmackException.NotConnectedException) {
}
Unread messages count
To define how many unread messages in particular dialog, use the code snippet below.
// If you have to update dialog from the server
QBRestChatService.getChatDialogById(dialog.getDialogId()).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog qbChatDialog, Bundle bundle) {
// get unread messages count
int unreadMessageCount = qbChatDialog.getUnreadMessageCount();
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
// Or if you have already updated dialog:
int unreadMessageCount = dialog.getUnreadMessageCount();
// If you have to update dialog from the server
QBRestChatService.getChatDialogById(dialog.dialogId).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBChatDialog> {
override fun onSuccess(qbChatDialog: QBChatDialog?, bundle: Bundle?) {
let unreadMessageCount = qbChatDialog.unreadMessageCount
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
// Or if you have already updated dialog:
let unreadMessageCount = dialog.unreadMessageCount
You can also retrieve total unread messages count.
using getTotalUnreadMessagesCount().
Set<String> dialogsIds = new HashSet<String>();
dialogsIds.add("44g9867978v894365tf7g3y4");
dialogsIds.add("47r8738478394ffdi39id493");
QBRestChatService.getTotalUnreadMessagesCount(dialogsIds, null).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<Integer>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Integer totalcount, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onError(QBResponseException e) {
}
});
val dialogsIds = HashSet<String>()
dialogsIds.add("44g9867978v894365tf7g3y4")
dialogsIds.add("47r8738478394ffdi39id493")
QBRestChatService.getTotalUnreadMessagesCount(dialogsIds, null).performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<Int> {
override fun onSuccess(integer: Int?, bundle: Bundle?) {
}
override fun onError(e: QBResponseException?) {
}
})
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
| dialogsIds | IDs of dialogs. - If dialogsIds are not specified, the total number of unread messages for all dialogs of the user will be returned.- If dialogsIds are specified, the total number of unread messages for the specified dialogs will be returned. Also, the total number of unread messages for all dialogs of the user will be returned. |
