Conversation Mark

Marking a conversation

Note:
1. When a user marks a conversation, the SDK simply records the mark value and does not change the underlying logic of the conversation. For example, marking a conversation as CONV_MARK_TYPE_UNREAD does not alter the unread count at the underlying layer.
2. The SDK provides four default marks ("favorite", "collapsed", "hidden", and "unread"). If they cannot meet your requirements, you can customize extended marks, which must meet the following conditions:
The value of an extended mark cannot be the same as that of an existing one.
Custom mark values must be Math.power(2, n) (32 <= n < 64, meaning n must be greater than or equal to 32 and less than 64), for instance, a custom Math.power(2, 32) mark value represents "iPhone Online".
APIAPI
chat.markConversation(options);
Parameters
The options parameter is of the Object type. It contains the following attribute values:
Name
Type
Description
conversationIDList
String
List of conversation IDs
markType
Number
Conversation mark type. The SDK provides four default marks ("favorite", "collapsed", "hidden", and "unread"). If they cannot meet your requirements, you can customize extended marks, which must meet the following conditions: The value of an extended mark cannot be the same as that of an existing one. The value of an extended mark must be Math.power(2, n) (32 ≤ n < 64, indicating that n must be equal to or greater than 32 and less than 64). For example, Math.power(2, 32) indicates "Online on an iPhone".

Boolean
true: Mark. false: Unmark
Response
Promise
Sample
// Mark a conversation as "favorite"
let promise = chat.markConversation({
  conversationIDList: ['GROUPtest', 'C2Cexample'],
  markType: TencentCloudChat.TYPES.CONV_MARK_TYPE_STAR,
  enableMark: true
});
promise.then(function(imResponse) {
  // Marked the conversation as "favorite" successfully
  const { successConversationIDList, failureConversationIDList } = imResponse.data;
  // successConversationIDList - List of conversations that were marked successfully
  // Get the conversation list
  const conversationList = chat.getConversationList(successConversationIDList);

  // failureConversationIDList - List of conversations that failed to be marked as "favorite"
  failureConversationIDList.forEach((item) => {
    const { conversationID, code, message } = item;
  });
}).catch(function(imError){
  console.warn('markConversation error:', imError);
});

Listening for the notification of a conversation mark change

After a conversation is marked or unmarked, the markList field in Conversation will change. You can listen for such a change notification through the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.CONVERSATION_LIST_UPDATED event.
Sample
let onConversationListUpdated = function(event) {
  console.log(event.data); // Array that stores Conversation instances
};
chat.on(TencentCloudChat.EVENT.CONVERSATION_LIST_UPDATED, onConversationListUpdated);

Pulling a specified marked conversation

Call the getConversationList API to pull a specified marked conversation.
Sample
// Obtain all conversations that are marked as "favorite"
let promise = chat.getConversationList({ markType: TencentCloudChat.TYPES.CONV_MARK_TYPE_STAR });
promise.then(function(imResponse) {
  const conversationList = imResponse.data.conversationList; // Conversation list
});
// Obtain all one-to-one conversations that are marked as "collapsed"
let promise = chat.getConversationList({
  markType: TencentCloudChat.TYPES.CONV_MARK_TYPE_FOLD,
  type: TencentCloudChat.TYPES.CONV_C2C
});
promise.then(function(imResponse) {
  const conversationList = imResponse.data.conversationList; // Conversation list
});
