Send Text Message

// Create a text message body
      EMTextMessageBody *body = [[EMTextMessageBody alloc] initWithText:@"content"];
      HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
    [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Send Voice Message

EMVoiceMessageBody *body = [[EMVoiceMessageBody alloc] initWithLocalPath:"local path" displayName:@"diplay name"];
    body.duration = @"length of time";
    HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
    [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Send Picture Message

EMImageMessageBody *body = [[EMImageMessageBody alloc] initWithData:<#imagedata#> displayName:<#image name#>];
     HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
    [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Send Location Message

EMImageMessageBody *body = [[EMImageMessageBody alloc] initWithData:<#imagedata#> displayName:<#image name#>];
     HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
    [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Send Transparent Message ====

// used in "chat with agent" scenarios. The parameter is the specific action
   EMCmdMessageBody *body = [[EMCmdMessageBody alloc] initWithAction:@"TransferToKf"];
   HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
   // The parameter is type. The id and serviceSessionId in the parameters are passed by the server
   ControlType *type = [[ControlType alloc] initWithValue:[weichat valueForKey:@"ctrlType"] ];
   ControlArguments *arguments = [ControlArguments new]; 
   arguments.identity = [ctrlArgs valueForKey:@"id"]; 
   arguments.sessionId = [ctrlArgs valueForKey:@"serviceSessionId"];
   ControlMessage *hcont = [ControlMessage new];
   hcont.type = type; // assign when needed
   hcont.arguments = arguments; // assign when needed
   [message addCompositeContent:hcont];
   [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Send Extended Message

Extended messages are used to implement certain functions, such as specifying a team, specifying an agent, passing a customer profile.

message (HMessage *);
      NSDictionary *dic = @{@"key1":@"value1",
                            @"key2":@"value2"};
      [message addAttributeDictionary:dic];
      [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Pass Customer Profile

When you need to pass customer attributes (nickname, phone, etc.) to Hyphenate Customer Engagement Cloud, you need to put the attributes in an extended message. Example of an extended text message:

// these attributes can be default
HVisitorInfo *visitor = [[HVisitorInfo alloc] init];
visitor.name = @"Jane Doe";
visitor.qq = @"12345678";
visitor.phone = @"13636362637";
visitor.companyName = @"Hyphenate";
visitor.nickName = @"Jane";
visitor.email = @"abv@hyphenate.io";
visitor.desc = @"Hyphenate Customer Engagement Cloud";
HMessage *message = [....];// construct the message
[message addContent:visitor]; // pass the customer profile
[[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
        } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
}];

Send Track Message

EMTextMessageBody *body = [[EMTextMessageBody alloc] initWithText:@""];
  HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
  VisitorTrack *vst = [VisitorTrack new];
  vst.title = title;  // title
  vst.price = price; // price
  vst.desc = desc;// description
  vst.imageUrl = imageUrl; // image URL
  vst.itemUrl = itemUrl; // Link to jump to
  [message addContent:vt];
  [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Send Order Message

EMTextMessageBody *body = [[EMTextMessageBody alloc] initWithText:@""];
  HMessage *message = [[HMessage alloc] initWithConversationID:<#conversationId#> from:<#Hyphenate username#> to:<#IM service ID#> body:body];
  OrderInfo *ord = [OrderInfo new];
  ord.title = title;
  ord.orderTitle = orderTitle;
  ord.price = price;
  ord.desc = desc;
  ord.imageUrl = imageUrl;
  ord.itemUrl = itemUrl;
  [message addContent:ord];
  [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat sendMessage:message progress:^(int progress) {
        // progress of sending the message
    } completion:^(HMessage *aMessage, HError *aError) {
        // message sent. It is successful if aError is empty
    }];

Specify Agent

Specify an agent to serve conversations.

The agent account is the agent's login email address.

HMessage *message = [....];// construct a message
[message addContent:[[HAgentIdentityInfo alloc] initWithValue:@"Agent account"]];

Specify Team

Specify a team to serve conversations.

The name of the team must be exactly the same as the name of the team set on the Hyphenate Customer Engagement Cloud.

HMessage *message = [....];// construct a message
   [message addContent:[[HQueueIdentityInfo alloc] initWithValue:@"Team name"]];

Receive Messages

Receive messages by registering listeners to the messages.

// Add a message listener. The second parameter is the queue to execute the delegate. It is the main queue by default.
[[HChatClient sharedClient].chat addDelegate:self delegateQueue:nil];
// Remove message listener
[[HChatClient sharedClient].chat removeDelegate:self];
- (void)messagesDidReceive:(NSArray *)aMessages{
     // receive a regular message, format: <HMessage *>
}
- (void)cmdMessagesDidReceive:(NSArray *)aCmdMessages{
     // receive a command message, format: <HMessage *>. Command messages are not saved in the database. They are used as system notifications, such as comment updates in notes,
     // and conversations served, transferred, and closed
}
- (void)messageStatusDidChange:(HMessage *)aMessage error:(HError *)aError{
     // message status updated. It is used to refresh the list and display the latest status
}
- (void)messageAttachmentStatusDidChange:(HMessage *)aMessage error:(HError *)aError{
    // Message sent. It is used to refresh the list and display the latest message
}

Detect Message Type

message.body.type == EMMessageBodyTypeText;  // text message
message.body.type == EMMessageBodyTypeImage; // image message
message.body.type == EMMessageBodyTypeVoice; // voice message
message.body.type == EMMessageBodyTypeFile;  // file message
message.body.type == EMMessageBodyTypeCmd;   // command message

// for a text message, you need to check its subtype
[HjudgeTextMessageSubType isTrackMessage:<#HMessage *#>] == YES;   // track message
[HjudgeTextMessageSubType isOrderMessage:<#HMessage *#>] == YES;   // order message
[HjudgeTextMessageSubType isMenuMessage:<#HMessage *#>] == YES;    // menu message
[HjudgeTextMessageSubType isTransferMessage:<#HMessage *#>] == YES;// specify agent
[HjudgeTextMessageSubType isEvaluateMessage:<#HMessage *#>] == YES;// satisfaction ratings

Get Conversation Details

* Retrieve a specified number of messages from the database. The retrieved messages are sorted by time and do not contain the reference message. If the reference message ID is empty, retrieve the latest messages.
*
*  @param aMessageId       reference message ID
*  @param count            number of messages
*  @param aDirection       search direction
*  @param aCompletionBlock callback when completed
_conversation = [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat getConversation:<IM service ID>];

        if (!aError && [aMessages count]) {
            //obtained messages aMessages
        }
    }];

Conversations

Get All Conversations

NSArray<HConversation *> *conversastions = [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat loadAllConversations];

Delete Conversation and History

// delete a conversation. parameter: conversation ID, whether to delete its messages
[[HCHatClient shareClient].chat deleteConversation:<#conversationId#> deleteMessages:YES];
HConversation *conversation = [[HConversation alloc] initWithConversation:<#conversationId#>];
// delete a message from a conversation. parameter: message ID, error pointer
[conversation deleteMessageWithId:<#messageId#> error:<#(HError **)#>];
// delete all messages from a conversation (without deleting the conversation)
[conversation deleteAllMessages:<#(HError **)#>];

Get the Number of Unread Messages

Hconversation *conversation = [[HChatClient sharedClient].chat getConversation:<#IM service ID#>];
int unreadCount = conversation.unreadMessagesCount; // get the number of unread messages in a specified conversation

Clear the Number of Unread Messages
