Multiple Files Message

Now we are supporting Multiple Files Message feature!

You can select some multiple files in the message inputs, and send multiple images in one message.

If you select several types of files, only images will be combined in the message and the other files will be sent separately.
Also we have resolved many issues found during QA.

How to enable this feature?

You can turn it on in four places.

  1. App Component
import App from '@sendbird/uikit-react/App'

<App
  ...
  isMultipleFilesMessageEnabled
/>
  1. SendbirdProvider
import { SendbirdProvider } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/SendbirdProvider'

<SendbirdProvider
  ...
  isMultipleFilesMessageEnabled
>
  {...}
</SendbirdProvider>
  1. Channel
import Channel from '@sendbird/uikit-react/Channel';
import { ChannelProvider } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/Channel/context';

<Channel
  ...
  isMultipleFilesMessageEnabled
/>
<ChannelProvider
  ...
  isMultipleFilesMessageEnabled
>
  {...}
</ChannelProvider>
  1. Thread
import Thread from '@sendbird/uikit-react/Thread';
import { ThreadProvider } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/Thread/context';

<Thread
  ...
  isMultipleFilesMessageEnabled
/>
<ThreadProvider
  ...
  isMultipleFilesMessageEnabled
>
  {...}
</ThreadProvider>

Interface change/publish

  • The properties of the ChannelContext and ThreadContext has been changed little bit.
    • allMessages of the ChannelContext has been divided into allMessages and localMessages
    • allThreadMessages of the ThreadContext has been divided into allThreadMessages and localThreadMessages
    • Each local messages includes pending and failed messages, and the all messages will contain only succeeded messages
    • Please keep in mind, you have to migrate to using the local messages, IF you have used the local messages to draw your custom message components.
  • pubSub has been published
    • publishingModules has been added to the payload of pubSub.publish
      You can specify the particular modules that you propose for event publishing
    import { useCallback } from 'react'
    import { SendbirdProvider, useSendbirdStateContext } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/SendbirdProvider'
    import { PUBSUB_TOPICS as topics, PublishingModuleTypes } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/pubSub/topics'
    
    const CustomApp = () => {
      const globalState = useSendbirdStateContext();
      const { stores, config } = globalState;
      const { sdk, initialized } = stores.sdkStore;
      const { pubSub } = config;
    
      const onSendFileMessageOnlyInChannel = useCallback((channel, params) => {
        channel.sendFileMessage(params)
          .onPending((pendingMessage) => {
            pubSub.publish(topics.SEND_MESSAGE_START, {
              channel,
              message: pendingMessage,
              publishingModules: [PublishingModuleTypes.CHANNEL],
            });
          })
          .onFailed((failedMessage) => {
            pubSub.publish(topics.SEND_MESSAGE_FAILED, {
              channel,
              message: failedMessage,
              publishingModules: [PublishingModuleTypes.CHANNEL],
            });
          })
          .onSucceeded((succeededMessage) => {
            pubSub.publish(topics.SEND_FILE_MESSAGE, {
              channel,
              message: succeededMessage,
              publishingModules: [PublishingModuleTypes.CHANNEL],
            });
          })
      }, []);
    
      return (<>...</>)
    };
    
    const App = () => (
      <SendbirdProvider>
        <CustomApp />
      </SendbirdProvider>
    );

Fixes:

  • Improve the pubSub&dispatch logics
  • Allow deleting failed messages
  • Check applicationUserListQuery.isLoading before fetching user list
    • Fix the error message: "Query in progress."
  • Fix missed or wrong type definitions
    • quoteMessage of ChannelProviderInterface
    • useEditUserProfileProviderContext has been renamed to useEditUserProfileContext
      import { useEditUserProfileProviderContext } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/EditUserProfile/context'
      // to
      import { useEditUserProfileContext } from '@sendbird/uikit-react/EditUserProfile/context'
