Profile, participants, and typing events are not managed with store implementation and the app should register appropriate listeners for relevant events.
You can register listeners from client instance:
/* add events listener:
* ProfileListener - changes to user profile details
* ParticipantsListener - changes to participant list in conversation
* TypingListener - user started/stopped typing in a conversation
*/
client.addListener(listener);
// remove events listener
client.removeListener(listener);
or set them up in a configuration when initialising:
ComapiConfig config = new ComapiConfig()
.participantsListener(listener /* extends ParticipantsListener */)
.profileListener(listener /* extends ProfileListener */)
.typingListener(listener /* extends TypingListeners */);
Listeners classes are abstract with empty implementation of onEventName
methods. You can override some or all of them to receive socket events from the foundation SDK.
Real-time events are available only when the application is in the foreground; visible to the user. If the app is put to the background, you can use FCM to communicate messages to the user and update the internal state after the app is put back to foreground using services APIs.
