Qiscus Web SDK Core

This library contains core functionalities needed to create a chat application using qiscus.

Installing

$ npm i qiscus-sdk-core
// or if you're using yarn
$ yarn add qiscus-sdk-core

then you need to import this library into your application.

import QiscusSDK from 'qiscus-sdk-core';

const qiscus = new QiscusSDK();

Init using AppId

qiscus.init({
  // change this into your own AppId through https://dashboard.qiscus.com
  AppId: 'sdksample',
  options: {
    loginSuccessCallback: function() {
      // example: start chatting with another user after successfully login
      qiscus.chatTarget('[email protected]').then(res => {
        console.info('chat with [email protected]', qiscus.selected);
      });
    },
    loginErrorCallback(data) {},
    newMessagesCallback(data) {},
    groupRoomCreatedCallback(data) {},
  },
  mode: 'widget', // widget | wide
  mqttURL: '...', // custom mqtt URL
  baseURL: '...', // custom base URL
});

Init using Custom Server

qiscus.init({
  // change this into your own AppId through https://dashboard.qiscus.com
  AppId: 'sdksample',
  options: { },
  mqttURL: '...', // custom mqtt URL
  baseURL: '...', // custom base URL
});

Authentication with UserId and UserKey

qiscus.setUser(userId, key, displayName, avatarURL); 
// loginSuccessCallback | loginErrorCallback will be triggered by this point

Authentication with JWT

First we need to get nonce from the server first.

let nonce;
qiscus.getNonce().then(res => nonce = res);

Then, we need to get identity token from server, qiscus doesn't handle this thing, it's up to client how then want to handle this. After identity token is retrieved, we need to verify the identity token to qiscus server.

let nonce, identityToken;
qiscus.getNonce().then(res => nonce = res.nonce)

// custom api call to jwt server by using nonce retrieved from previous step
api.getIdentityToken(nonce).then(res => identityToken = res.identity_token);

// verify identity token received to qiscus server
qiscus.verifyIdentityToken(identityToken).then(res => identityToken = res);

Use the token to authenticate

qiscus.setUserWithIdentityToken(identityToken);
// loginSuccessCallback | loginErrorCallback will be triggered by this point

Updating a User Profile and Profile Image

Call another setUser() with new data

qiscus.setUser(userId, key, displayName, avatarUrl)
// this method can only be used to update displayName and avatarUrl

Check is User Logged In

qiscus.isLogin // return true or false

Logout

qiscus.logout();

Send Messages

qiscus.sendMessage(
  roomId:<Number>, 
  message:<String>, 
  uniqueId:<String>, // optional, will be automatically generated if `null`
  type:<String>, // default to text
  payload:<String>, // JSON.stringify(payload object)
  extras:<Object>); // In case we need to attach extra data

Example of sending text message:

qiscus.sendComment(roomId, 'my message', null, 'text', null, null);

Example of sending file attachment:

const filePayload = JSON.stringify({
    url: "https://res.cloudinary.com/qiscus/image/upload/USWiylE7Go/ios-15049438515185.png",
    caption: "Ini gambar siapa?"
});
qiscus.sendComment(roomId, 'check my image', null, 'file_attachment', filePayload, null);

Example of sending custom message:

const customPayload = JSON.stringify({
  type: 'my-awesome-profile-card',
  content: {name, phone, ...}
});
qiscus.sendComment(roomId, 'check my profile card', null, 'custom', customPayload, null);

Example payload of sending carousel:

const carouselPayload = JSON.stringify({
  cards: [{
    image:"http://url.com/gambar.jpg",
    title:"Atasan Blouse Tunik Wanita Baju Muslim Worie Longtop",
    description:"Oleh sippnshop\n96% (666 feedback)\nRp 49.000.00,-\nBUY 2 GET 1 FREE!!!",

        }
      },
      {
