Call Log Participants - CometChat Docs

Overview

CometChatCallLogParticipants is a Component that shows a separate view that displays comprehensive information about Call. This will enable users to easily access details such as the call participants, call details for a more informed communication experience.

The Call Log Participants component is composed of the following BaseComponents:

Components	Description
CometChatListBase	`CometChatListBase` is a container component featuring a title, customizable background options, and a dedicated list view for seamless integration within your application’s interface.
CometChatListItem	This component displays data retrieved from a CallLog object on a card, presenting a title and subtitle.

Usage

Integration

CometChatCallLogParticipants is a ViewController component that seamlessly integrates into your application. To present the participants of a call, you can instantiate the CometChatCallLogParticipants instance and provide the list of participants using its setter function. This allows for easy customization and efficient display of call participant details within your application’s interface.

let callParticipant = CometChatCallLogParticipant()
.set(participants: [Any]?)

self.navigationController?.pushViewController(callParticipant, animated: true)

Actions

Actions dictate how a component functions. They are divided into two types: Predefined and User-defined. You can override either type, allowing you to tailor the behavior of the component to fit your specific needs.

1. OnItemClicked

The setOnItemClicked action is typically triggered when a participant in the call log is clicked, executing a predefined action. However, by implementing the provided code snippet, you can effortlessly customize or override this default behavior to meet your specific requirements.

let callLogParticipantConfiguration =  CallLogParticipantConfiguration()
.set (onItemClicked:{ callLog, UIViewController in
//Perform Your Action

})

Filters

Filters allow you to customize the data displayed in a list within a Component. You can filter the list based on your specific criteria, allowing for a more customized. Filters can be applied using RequestBuilders of Chat SDK. The Call Log Participants component does not have any exposed filters.

Events

Events are emitted by a Component. By using event you can extend existing functionality. Being global events, they can be applied in Multiple Locations and are capable of being Added or Removed. The Call Log Participants component does not have any exposed events.

Customization

To fit your app’s design requirements, you can customize the appearance of the conversation component. We provide exposed methods that allow you to modify the experience and behavior according to your specific needs.

Style

Using Style you can customize the look and feel of the component in your app, These parameters typically control elements such as the color, size, shape, and fonts used within the component.

1. CallLogParticipant Style

Advanced

For advanced-level customization, you can set custom views to the component. This lets you tailor each aspect of the component to fit your exact needs and application aesthetics. You can create and define your views, layouts, and UI elements and then incorporate those into the component.

EmptyView report

You can set a custom EmptyView using .set(emptyView: UIView) to match the empty view of your app.

let callParticipant = CometChatCallLogParticipant()
.set(emptyView: UIView)      //you can pass your own view

Example In this example, we will create a Custom_Empty_State_GroupViewa UIView file.

import UIKit

class CustomEmptyStateGroupView: UIView {
    // Initialize your subviews
    let imageView: UIImageView = {
        let imageView = UIImageView(image: UIImage(named: "noDataImage"))
        imageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        return imageView
    }()

    let messageLabel: UILabel = {
        let label = UILabel()
        label.text = "No groups available"
        label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        label.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 16)
        label.textColor = .black
        return label
    }()

    // Override the initializer
    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
        // Add subviews and layout constraints
        addSubview(imageView)
        addSubview(messageLabel)
        NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
            imageView.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: centerXAnchor),
            imageView.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: centerYAnchor),
            imageView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 120),
            imageView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 120),

            messageLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: imageView.bottomAnchor, constant: 8),
            messageLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: centerXAnchor)
        ])
    }

    required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
        fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
    }
}

We will be passing a custom empty view to CometChatCallLogParticipants, ensuring a tailored and user-friendly interface.

let customEmptyStateGroupView = CustomEmptyStateGroupView()

let callParticipant = CometChatCallLogParticipant()
            .set(emptyView: customEmptyStateGroupView)

self.navigationController?.pushViewController(callParticipant, animated: true)

Ensure to pass and present CometChatCallLogParticipants. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.

ErrorView report

You can set a custom ErrorView using .set(errorView: UIView) to match the error view of your app.

let callParticipant = CometChatCallLogParticipant()
.set(errorView: UIView)   //you can pass your own view

Example In this example, we will create a UIView file Custom_ErrorState_GroupView and pass it inside the .set(errorView: UIView) method.

Custom_ErrorState_GroupView

import UIKit

let CustomErrorStateGroupView: UIView = {
        // Create main view
        let view = UIView()
        view.backgroundColor = .white

        // Create an imageView and add it to the main view
        let imageView = UIImageView(image: UIImage(systemName: "exclamationmark.triangle"))
        imageView.tintColor = .red
        imageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        view.addSubview(imageView)

        // Create a label with error message and add it to the main view
        let label = UILabel()
        label.text = "An error occurred. Please try again."
        label.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 16)
        label.textColor = .darkGray
        label.numberOfLines = 0
        label.textAlignment = .center
        label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        view.addSubview(label)

        // Create constraints for imageView and label
        NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
            imageView.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor),
            imageView.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor, constant: -50),

            label.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: imageView.bottomAnchor, constant: 20),
            label.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor, constant: 20),
            label.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor, constant: -20)
        ])

        return view
    }()

let customErrorStateGroupView = CustomErrorStateGroupView

let callParticipant = CometChatCallLogParticipant()
.set(errorView: customErrorStateGroupView)

self.navigationController?.pushViewController(callParticipant, animated: true)

Ensure to pass and present CometChatCallLogParticipants. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.

Menus

You can set the Custom Menus to add more options to the CometChatCallLogParticipants component.

let callLogDetails = CometChatCallLogDetails()
.set(menus: [UIBarButtonItem])

You can customize the menus for CometChatCallLogParticipants to meet your requirements

Example

In this example, we’ll craft a custom button tailored for CallLogParticipants, enhancing its interface with a personalized menu for a more user-friendly experience.

let customMenuButton: UIBarButtonItem = {
    let button = UIButton(type: .system)
    button.setImage(UIImage(systemName: "swift"), for: .normal)
    button.setTitle("", for: .normal)
    button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(handleCustomMenu), for: .touchUpInside)
    let barButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
    return barButtonItem
}()

let callParticipant = CometChatCallLogParticipant()
.set(menus: [customMenuButton])

Ensure to pass and present CometChatCallLogParticipants. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.
