メッセージ送信

Basic Feature Description

The method for sending a message is in the core classes V2TIMManager and V2TIMMessageManager (Android) / V2TIMManager(Message) (iOS and macOS).
It supports sending text, custom, and rich media messages, and all of which belong to the V2TIMMessage type.
V2TIMMessage can contain V2TIMElem sub-types to indicate different types of messages.

API Description

The sendMessage API (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) is one of the core APIs for message sending. It supports sending messages of all types.
Note
The advanced message sending API mentioned below refers to sendMessage.
The API is as described below:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
API prototype:
// V2TIMMessageManager
public abstract String sendMessage(
    V2TIMMessage message,
    String receiver,
    String groupID,
    int priority,
    boolean onlineUserOnly,
    V2TIMOfflinePushInfo offlinePushInfo,
    V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage> callback);

Sending a Text Message

Text messages include one-to-one messages and group messages, which are different in terms of API and parameters.
The ordinary and advanced APIs can be used to send text messages. The latter supports more sending parameters (such as priority and offline push message). The ordinary API is as described below, while the advanced API is sendMessage mentioned above.

One-to-one text message

Basic API

Call the sendC2CTextMessage API (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send a one-to-one text message simply by passing in the message content and receiver's userID.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// `msgID` returned by the API for on-demand use
String msgID = V2TIMManager.getInstance().sendC2CTextMessage("One-to-one text message", "receiver_userID", new V2TIMValueCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The one-to-one text message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the one-to-one text message
    }
});
// `msgID` returned by the API for on-demand use
NSString *msgID = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] sendC2CTextMessage:@"One-to-one text message" 
                                                                 to:@"receiver_userID"
                                                               succ:^{
    // The one-to-one text message sent successfully
} fail:^(int code, NSString *msg) {
    // Failed to send the one-to-one text message
}];
class SendCallback final : public V2TIMSendCallback {
public:
    using SuccessCallback = std::function<void(const V2TIMMessage&)>;
    using ErrorCallback = std::function<void(int, const V2TIMString&)>;
    using ProgressCallback = std::function<void(uint32_t)>;

    SendCallback() = default;
    ~SendCallback() override = default;

    void SetCallback(SuccessCallback success_callback, ErrorCallback error_callback,
                     ProgressCallback progress_callback) {
        success_callback_ = std::move(success_callback);
        error_callback_ = std::move(error_callback);
        progress_callback_ = std::move(progress_callback);
    }

    void OnSuccess(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {
        if (success_callback_) {
            success_callback_(message);
        }
    }
    void OnError(int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) override {
        if (error_callback_) {
            error_callback_(error_code, error_message);
        }
    }
    void OnProgress(uint32_t progress) override {
        if (progress_callback_) {
            progress_callback_(progress);
        }
    }

private:
    SuccessCallback success_callback_;
    ErrorCallback error_callback_;
    ProgressCallback progress_callback_;
};

auto callback = new SendCallback{};
callback->SetCallback(
    [=](const V2TIMMessage& message) {
        // The one-to-one text message sent successfully
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) {
        // Failed to send the one-to-one text message
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](uint32_t progress) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
    });
// `msgID` returned by the API for on-demand use
V2TIMString msgID =
    V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->SendC2CTextMessage("One-to-one text message", "receiver_userID", callback);

Advanced API

The advanced API can be called to send a one-to-one text message in two steps:
1. Call createTextMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to create a text message.
2. Call sendMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send the message.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create a text message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createTextMessage("content");
// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, "userID", null, V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
    }

    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The text message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the text message
    }
});
// Create a text message
V2TIMMessage *message = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] createTextMessage:@"content"];
// Send the message
[V2TIMManager.sharedInstance sendMessage:message
                                receiver:@"userID"
                                 groupID:nil
                                priority:V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL
                          onlineUserOnly:NO
                         offlinePushInfo:nil
                                progress:nil
                                succ:^{
    // The text message sent successfully
}
                                fail:^(int code, NSString *desc) {
    // Failed to send the text message
}];
class SendCallback final : public V2TIMSendCallback {
public:
    using SuccessCallback = std::function<void(const V2TIMMessage&)>;
    using ErrorCallback = std::function<void(int, const V2TIMString&)>;
    using ProgressCallback = std::function<void(uint32_t)>;

    SendCallback() = default;
    ~SendCallback() override = default;

    void SetCallback(SuccessCallback success_callback, ErrorCallback error_callback,
                     ProgressCallback progress_callback) {
        success_callback_ = std::move(success_callback);
        error_callback_ = std::move(error_callback);
        progress_callback_ = std::move(progress_callback);
    }

    void OnSuccess(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {
        if (success_callback_) {
            success_callback_(message);
        }
    }
    void OnError(int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) override {
        if (error_callback_) {
            error_callback_(error_code, error_message);
        }
    }
    void OnProgress(uint32_t progress) override {
        if (progress_callback_) {
            progress_callback_(progress);
        }
    }

private:
    SuccessCallback success_callback_;
    ErrorCallback error_callback_;
    ProgressCallback progress_callback_;
};

// Create a text message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->CreateTextMessage("One-to-one text message");
// Send the message
auto callback = new SendCallback{};
callback->SetCallback(
    [=](const V2TIMMessage& message) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) {
        // Failed to send the text message
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](uint32_t progress) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
    });
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->SendMessage(
    v2TIMMessage, "userID", {}, V2TIMMessagePriority::V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, {}, callback);

Group text message

Basic API

Call sendGroupTextMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send a group message simply by passing in the message content, groupID of the group chat, and message priority.
For message priorities, see the V2TIMMessagePriority definition.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// `msgID` returned by the API for on-demand use
String msgID = V2TIMManager.getInstance().sendGroupTextMessage("Group text message", "groupID", V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, new V2TIMValueCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The group text message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the group text message
    }
});
// `msgID` returned by the API for on-demand use
NSString *msgID = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] sendGroupTextMessage:@"Group text message" 
                                                                   to:@"groupID"  // `groupID` of the group chat
                                                             priority:V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL // Message priority
                                                                 succ:^{
    // The group text message sent successfully
} fail:^(int code, NSString *msg) {
    // Failed to send the group text message
}];
class SendGroupTextMessageCallback final : public V2TIMSendCallback {
public:
    using SuccessCallback = std::function<void(const V2TIMMessage&)>;
    using ErrorCallback = std::function<void(int, const V2TIMString&)>;
    using ProgressCallback = std::function<void(uint32_t)>;

    SendGroupTextMessageCallback() = default;
    ~SendGroupTextMessageCallback() override = default;

    void SetCallback(SuccessCallback success_callback, ErrorCallback error_callback,
                     ProgressCallbackprogress_callback) {
        success_callback_ = std::move(success_callback);
        error_callback_ = std::move(error_callback);
        progress_callback_ = std::move(progress_callback);
    }
    void OnSuccess(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {
        if (success_callback_) {
            success_callback_(message);
        }
    }
    void OnError(int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) override {
        if (error_callback_) {
            error_callback_(error_code, error_message);
        }
    }
    void OnProgress(uint32_t progress) override {
        if (progress_callback_) {
            progress_callback_(progress);
        }
    }

private:
    SuccessCallback success_callback_;
    ErrorCallback error_callback_;
    ProgressCallback progress_callback_;
};

auto callback = new SendGroupTextMessageCallback;
callback->SetCallback(
    [=](const V2TIMMessage& message) {
        // The group text message sent successfully
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) {
        // Failed to send the group text message
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](uint32_t progress) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
    });
// `msgID` returned by the API for on-demand use
V2TIMString msgID = V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->SendGroupTextMessage(
    "Group text message", "groupID", V2TIMMessagePriority::V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, callback);

Advanced API

The advanced API can be called to send a group text message in two steps:
1. Call createTextMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to create a text message.
2. Call sendMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send the message.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create a text message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createTextMessage("content");
// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, null, "receiver_groupID", V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
    }

    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The group text message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the group text message
    }
});
// Create a text message
V2TIMMessage *message = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] createTextMessage:content];
// Send the message
[V2TIMManager.sharedInstance sendMessage:message
                                receiver:nil
                                 groupID:@"receiver_groupID"  // `groupID` of the group chat
                                priority:V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL // Message priority
                          onlineUserOnly:NO   // For online users only
                         offlinePushInfo:nil  // Custom information for offline push
                                progress:nil
                                    succ:^{
    // The text message sent successfully
}
                                fail:^(int code, NSString *desc) {

        progress_callback_ = std::move(progress_callback);
    }

    void OnSuccess(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {

// Send the message
auto callback = new SendCallback{};

        // The group text message sent successfully
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) {
        // Failed to send the group text message
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](uint32_t progress) {
        // The progress is not called back for the text message.
    });
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->SendMessage(
    v2TIMMessage, {}, "receiver_groupID", V2TIMMessagePriority::V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, {}, callback);

Sending a Custom Message

Custom messages include one-to-one messages and group messages, which are different in terms of APIs and parameters. The ordinary and advanced APIs can be used to send custom messages. The advanced API is sendMessage mentioned above (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows), which supports more sending parameters (such as priority and offline push message) than the ordinary API.

Custom one-to-one message

Basic API

Call sendC2CCustomMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send a custom one-to-one message simply by passing in the binary content and receiver's userID.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows

String msgID = V2TIMManager.getInstance().sendC2CCustomMessage("Custom one-to-one message".getBytes(), "receiver_userID", new V2TIMValueCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The custom one-to-one message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the custom one-to-one message
    }
});
NSData *customData = [@"Custom one-to-one message"  dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSString *msgID = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] sendC2CCustomMessage:customData
                                                                   to:@"receiver_userID"  // Receiver's `userID`
                                                                 succ:^{
    // The custom one-to-one message sent successfully
} 
                                                                fail:^(int code, NSString *msg) {

Advanced API

The advanced API can be called to send a custom one-to-one message in two steps:
1. Call createCustomMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to create a custom message.
2. Call sendMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send the message.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create a custom message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createCustomMessage("Custom one-to-one message".getBytes());
// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, "receiver_userID", null, V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {

Custom group message

Basic API

Call sendGroupCustomMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send a custom group message simply by passing in the binary content, groupID of the group chat, and priority. For message priorities, see the V2TIMMessagePriority definition.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
String msgID = V2TIMManager.getInstance().sendGroupCustomMessage("Custom group message".getBytes(), "groupID", V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, new V2TIMValueCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {

    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the custom group message
    }
});

Sending a Rich Media Message

A rich media message can be sent in the following steps:
1. Call createXxxMessage to create a rich media message object of a specified type. Here, Xxx indicates the specific message type.
2. Call sendMessage (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to send the message.
3. Get the callback for message sending success or failure.

Image message

To create an image message, you need to get the local image path first. During message sending, the image is uploaded to the server, and the upload progress is called back. The message is sent after the image is uploaded successfully.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create an image message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createImageMessage("/sdcard/xxx");
// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, "receiver_userID", null, V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {
        // Image upload progress in the range of [0, 100]
    }

    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The image message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the image message
    }
});
// Get the local image path
NSString *imagePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@"png"];
// Create an image message
V2TIMMessage *message = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] createImageMessage:imagePath];
// Send the message
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] sendMessage:message
                                  receiver:@"userID"
                                   groupID:nil

Audio message

To create an audio message, you need to get the local audio file path and audio duration first, the latter of which can be used for display on the receiver UI. During message sending, the audio is uploaded to the server, and the upload progress is called back. The message is sent after the audio is uploaded successfully.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create an audio message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createSoundMessage("/sdcard/xxx", 5);
// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, "receiver_userID", null, V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {
        // Audio upload progress in the range of [0, 100]
    }

    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The audio message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the audio message
    }
});
// Get the local audio file path
NSString *soundPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@"m4a"];
// Get the audio duration (which is only used for UI display)
AVURLAsset *asset = [AVURLAsset assetWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:soundPath]];
CMTime time = [asset duration];
int duration = ceil(time.value/time.timescale);
// Create an audio message
V2TIMMessage *message = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] createSoundMessage:soundPath duration:duration];
// Send the message
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] sendMessage:message
                                  receiver:@"userID"

Video message

To create a video message, you need to get the local video file path, video duration, and video thumbnail first, the latter two of which can be used for display on the receiver UI. During message sending, the video is uploaded to the server, and the upload progress is called back. The message is sent after the video is uploaded successfully.
Below is the sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create a video message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createVideoMessage("/sdcard/xxx", "mp4", 10, "/sdcard/xxx");
// Send the message

File message

To create a file message, you need to get the local file path first. During message sending, the file is uploaded to the server, and the upload progress is called back. The message is sent after the file is uploaded successfully.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create a file message
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createFileMessage("/sdcard/xxx", "Filename");
// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, "receiver_userID", null, V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_NORMAL, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {
        // File upload progress in the range of [0, 100]
    }

    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage message) {
        // The file message sent successfully
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        // Failed to send the file message
    }
});
// Get the local file path
NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@"mp4"];
// Create a file message
V2TIMMessage *message = [[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] createFileMessage:filePath fileName:@"Send the file message"];
// Send the message
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] sendMessage:message
                                  receiver:@"userID"
