Using spect8-ui

For displaying chat from a user using spect-ui some steps have to be followed which are necessary, if you have already authenticated and have the correct channelManager please skip to step 3- .

1- Add Client configuration:

The client has to be configured in order to be use the package. Add following code before logging in.

final spect8Client = Spect8Client(
    config: ClientConfig(
  authURL: 'some-auth-url',
  coreURL: 'some-core-url',
  webSocketURL: 'some-websockets-url',
));

2- Logging In

For differentiating a user from others in chat authentication is necessary. For authenticating a user a demoUserId and a tenantId are required, demoUserId is any Id which will be used to tell a user apart and tenantId is the id provided to you by us. Authentication provides you with a tenantManager which we will use in next steps.

Future<void> main() async {
  TenantManager tenantManager = await spect8Client.connectDemoUser(
      demoUserId: 'some-user-id', tenantId: 'your-tenant-id');
  runApp(MyApp());
}

3- Identifying a Channel

Spect8 supports multiple broadcasts per tenant and multiple channels per broadcast. So every Tenant can have different broadcasts and each broadcast can have different channels. It is important that we select the correct channel for which we want to display the tabs.

4- Get current user manager:

Get an instance of CurrentUserManager which can be used for operations related to current user.

CurrentUserManager currentUserManager = tenantManager.getCurrentUserManager();

5: Get broadcast manager :

To get a broadcast manager which is used for operations related to a specific broadcast.

BroadcastManager broadcastManager = tenantManager.getBroadcastManager(
    broadcastId: 'id-of-a-broadcast');

6- Spect8chat as a widget

class Chatview extends StatelessWidget {
  const Chatview({
    Key key,
  }) : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Column(
        children: <Widget>[
          Expanded(
            child: Spect8Chat(
              currentUserManager: tenantManager.getCurrentUserManager(),
              broadcastManager: tenantManager.getBroadcastManager(
                  broadcastId: 'some-broadcast-id'),),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
