Real-time updates

Real-time updates are the most important part in building an instant chat messaging application. Stringee provides very simple methods to register and listen for events, as described in Connecting. Listen for StringeeChatEvents.didReceiveObjectChange on the StringeeChat.eventStreamController. The event body is a StringeeObjectChange containing updated StringeeConversation or StringeeMessage objects.

void handleDidReceiveObjectChangeEvent(StringeeObjectChange stringeeObjectChange) {
  print(stringeeObjectChange.objectType.toString() + '\t' + stringeeObjectChange.type.toString());
}

In which:

• objectType: Used to specify the type of updated object.
• objects: A list of updated objects.
  • objectType = conversation -> StringeeConversation.
  • objectType = message -> StringeeMessage.
• type: Used to specify the type of change:
  • changeType = Insert: Notify an object is created or inserted.
  • changeType = Update: Notify the object is updated.
  • changeType = Delete: Notify the object is deleted
