メッセージの受信

Feature Description

The addSimpleMsgListener API is used to listen for and receive text and custom messages, with the callback defined in the V2TIMSimpleMsgListener protocol.
The addAdvancedMsgListener API is used to listen for and receive all types of messages (text, custom, and rich media messages), with the callback defined in the V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener protocol.

Setting a Message Listener

The SDK provides the V2TIMSimpleMsgListener simple message listener and the V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener advanced message listener. They differ in that:
1. The simple message listener can only receive text and custom messages. You can use it if your business only requires these two types of messages.
2. The advanced message listener can receive all types of messages. You can use it if your business also requires rich media, merged, and other messages.
Note:
1. addSimpleMsgListener and addAdvancedMsgListener are exclusive. Do not use both of them; otherwise, unpredictable logic bugs will occur.
2. A message listener must be added first to receive the following types of messages.

Simple message listener

Adding a listener

The receiver calls the addSimpleMsgListener (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to add the simple message listener. We recommend it be called early, such as after the chat page is initialized, to ensure timely message receiving in the application.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
V2TIMManager.getInstance().addSimpleMsgListener(simpleMsgListener);
// `self` is id<V2TIMSignalingListener>
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] addSimpleMsgListener:self];
class SimpleMsgListener final : public V2TIMSimpleMsgListener {
// Members ...
};

// Note that `simpleMsgListener` should not be released before the IM SDK is uninitialized,
// otherwise the message callback cannot be called.
SimpleMsgListener simpleMsgListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->AddSimpleMsgListener(&simpleMsgListener);

Listener callback event

After adding the simple message listener, the receiver can receive different types of messages in the callback of V2TIMSimpleMsgListener (Android / iOS and macOSWindows), as described below:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
public abstract class V2TIMSimpleMsgListener {
// Received the one-to-one text message
public void onRecvC2CTextMessage(String msgID, V2TIMUserInfo sender, String text) {}

// Received the custom one-to-one (signaling) message
public void onRecvC2CCustomMessage(String msgID, V2TIMUserInfo sender, byte[] customData) {}

// Received the group text message
public void onRecvGroupTextMessage(String msgID, String groupID, V2TIMGroupMemberInfo sender, String text) {}

// Received the custom group (signaling) message
public void onRecvGroupCustomMessage(String msgID, String groupID, V2TIMGroupMemberInfo sender, byte[] customData) {}
}
/// Basic message callback of the IM SDK
@protocol V2TIMSimpleMsgListener <NSObject>
@optional

/// Received a one-to-one text message
- (void)onRecvC2CTextMessage:(NSString *)msgID sender:(V2TIMUserInfo *)info text:(NSString *)text;

/// Received a custom one-to-one (signaling) message
- (void)onRecvC2CCustomMessage:(NSString *)msgID sender:(V2TIMUserInfo *)info customData:(NSData *)data;

/// Received a group text message
- (void)onRecvGroupTextMessage:(NSString *)msgID groupID:(NSString *)groupID sender:(V2TIMGroupMemberInfo *)info text:(NSString *)text;

/// Received a custom group (signaling) message
- (void)onRecvGroupCustomMessage:(NSString *)msgID groupID:(NSString *)groupID sender:(V2TIMGroupMemberInfo *)info customData:(NSData *)data;
@end
class SimpleMsgListener final : public V2TIMSimpleMsgListener {
public:
SimpleMsgListener() = default;
~SimpleMsgListener() override = default;

// Received the one-to-one text message
void OnRecvC2CTextMessage(const V2TIMString& msgID, const V2TIMUserFullInfo& sender,
const V2TIMString& text) override {}

// Received the custom one-to-one (signaling) message
void OnRecvC2CCustomMessage(const V2TIMString& msgID, const V2TIMUserFullInfo& sender,
const V2TIMBuffer& customData) override {}

// Received the group text message
void OnRecvGroupTextMessage(const V2TIMString& msgID, const V2TIMString& groupID,
const V2TIMGroupMemberFullInfo& sender, const V2TIMString& text) override {}

// Received the custom group (signaling) message
void OnRecvGroupCustomMessage(const V2TIMString& msgID, const V2TIMString& groupID,
const V2TIMGroupMemberFullInfo& sender,
const V2TIMBuffer& customData) override {}
};

Removing a listener

To stop receiving messages, the receiver can call removeSimpleMsgListener (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to remove the simple message listener.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
V2TIMManager.getInstance().removeSimpleMsgListener(simpleMsgListener);
// `self` is id<V2TIMSignalingListener>
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] removeSimpleMsgListener:self];
class SimpleMsgListener final : public V2TIMSimpleMsgListener {
// Members ...
};

// `simpleMsgListener` is the instance of SimpleMsgListener
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->RemoveSimpleMsgListener(&simpleMsgListener);

Advanced message listener

Adding a listener

The receiver calls the addAdvancedMsgListener (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to add the advanced message listener. We recommend it be called early, such as after the chat page is initialized, to ensure timely message receiving in the application.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().addAdvancedMsgListener(advancedMsgListener);
// `self` is id<V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener>
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] addAdvancedMsgListener:self];
class AdvancedMsgListener final : public V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener {
// Members ...
};

// Note that `advancedMsgListener` should not be released before the IM SDK is uninitialized,
// otherwise the message callback cannot be called.
AdvancedMsgListener advancedMsgListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->AddAdvancedMsgListener(&advancedMsgListener);

Listener callback event

After adding the advanced message listener, the receiver can receive different types of messages in the callback of V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener (Android / iOS and macOSWindows), as described below:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
public abstract class V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener {
// Received a new message
public void onRecvNewMessage(V2TIMMessage msg) {}

// one-to-one message read notification (a notification is received when the receiver calls `markC2CMessageAsRead`)
public void onRecvC2CReadReceipt(List<V2TIMMessageReceipt> receiptList) {}

// Message read receipt notification (if read receipts are supported, the notification is received when the receiver calls `sendMessageReadReceipts`)
public void onRecvMessageReadReceipts(List<V2TIMMessageReceipt> receiptList) {}

// Received a message recall notification
public void onRecvMessageRevoked(String msgID) {}

// The message content is modified.
public void onRecvMessageModified(V2TIMMessage msg) {}
}
/// Advanced message listener
@protocol V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener <NSObject>
@optional
/// Received a new message
- (void)onRecvNewMessage:(V2TIMMessage *)msg;

/// Message read receipt notification (if read receipts are supported, the notification is received when the receiver calls `sendMessageReadReceipts`)
- (void)onRecvMessageReadReceipts:(NSArray<V2TIMMessageReceipt *> *)receiptList;

/// One-to-one message read notification (a notification is received when the receiver calls `markC2CMessageAsRead`)
- (void)onRecvC2CReadReceipt:(NSArray<V2TIMMessageReceipt *> *)receiptList;

/// Received a message recall notification
- (void)onRecvMessageRevoked:(NSString *)msgID;

/// The message content is modified
- (void)onRecvMessageModified:(V2TIMMessage *)msg;
@end
class AdvancedMsgListener final : public V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener {
public:
AdvancedMsgListener() = default;
~AdvancedMsgListener() override = default;

// Received a new message
void OnRecvNewMessage(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {}

// one-to-one message read notification (a notification is received when the receiver calls `markC2CMessageAsRead`)
void OnRecvC2CReadReceipt(const V2TIMMessageReceiptVector& receiptList) override {}

// Message read receipt notification (if read receipts are supported, the notification is received when the receiver calls `sendMessageReadReceipts`)
void OnRecvMessageReadReceipts(const V2TIMMessageReceiptVector& receiptList) override {}

// Received a message recall notification
void OnRecvMessageRevoked(const V2TIMString& messageID) override {}

// The message content is modified.
void OnRecvMessageModified(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {}
};

Removing a listener

To stop receiving messages, the receiver can call removeAdvancedMsgListener (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to remove the advanced message listener.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().removeAdvancedMsgListener(advancedMsgListener);
// `self` is id<V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener>
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] removeAdvancedMsgListener:self];
class AdvancedMsgListener final : public V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener {
// Members ...
};

// `advancedMsgListener` is the instance of AdvancedMsgListener
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->RemoveAdvancedMsgListener(&advancedMsgListener);

Receiving a Text Message

Using simple message listener

One-to-one text message

The receiver can receive a one-to-one text message by using the simple message listener in the following steps:
1. Call addSimpleMsgListener to set the event listener.
2. Listen for the onRecvC2CTextMessage callback (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to receive text messages.
3. To stop receiving messages, call removeSimpleMsgListener to remove the listener. This step is optional and can be performed as needed.

Receiving a Custom Message

Using simple message listener

Custom one-to-one message

The receiver can receive a custom one-to-one message by using the simple message listener in the following steps:
1. Call addSimpleMsgListener to set the event listener.
2. Listen for the onRecvC2CCustomMessage callback (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to receive custom one-to-one messages.
3. To stop receiving messages, call removeSimpleMsgListener to remove the listener. This step is optional and can be performed as needed.
Sample code:

Using advanced message listener

The receiver can receive a custom one-to-one or group message by using the advanced message listener in the following steps:
1. Call addAdvancedMsgListener to set the event listener.
2. Listen for the onRecvNewMessage callback (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to receive custom messages.
3. To stop receiving messages, call removeAdvancedMsgListener to remove the listener. This step is optional and can be performed as needed.
Sample code:
Android

Windows
// Set the event listener
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().addAdvancedMsgListener(v2TIMAdvancedMsgListener);

// Receive the message
public void onRecvNewMessage(V2TIMMessage msg) {
// Parse the `groupID` and `userID`
String groupID = msg.getGroupID();
String userID = msg.getUserID();

// Determine whether it's a one-to-one chat or group chat

// Note that `advancedMsgListener` should not be released before the IM SDK is uninitialized,
// otherwise the message callback cannot be called.
AdvancedMsgListener advancedMsgListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->AddAdvancedMsgListener(&advancedMsgListener);

Receiving a Rich Media Message

The receiver can receive a rich media message only by using the advanced message listener in the following steps:
1. Call the addAdvancedMsgListener API to set the advanced message listener.
2. Listen for the onRecvNewMessage callback (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to receive the V2TIMMessage message.
3. Parse the elemType attribute in the V2TIMMessage message and then parse the message again according to the type to get the specific content of the elements in the message.
4. To stop receiving messages, call removeAdvancedMsgListener to remove the listener. This step is optional and can be performed as needed.

Image message

The image in an image message can be in three formats: original, large, and thumbnail. The latter two are automatically generated by the SDK during message sending and can be ignored.
Large image: A large image is an image obtained after the original image is proportionally compressed. After the compression, the height or width (whichever is shorter) is equal to 720 pixels.
Thumbnail: A thumbnail is an image obtained after the original image is proportionally compressed. After the compression, the height or width (whichever is shorter) is equal to 198 pixels.
After the image message is received, we recommend you call the SDK's downloadImage (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) to download the image and then render it to the UI layer.
To avoid repeated download and save resources, we recommend you set the uuid attribute value of the V2TIMImage object to the image download path to identify the image.
The following sample code demonstrates how to parse the image content from V2TIMMessage:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
public void onRecvNewMessage(V2TIMMessage msg) {
if (msg.getElemType() == V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_ELEM_TYPE_IMAGE) {
// Image message
V2TIMImageElem v2TIMImageElem = msg.getImageElem();
// The image in an image message can be in three formats: original, large, and thumbnail. The latter two are automatically generated by the SDK during message sending and can be ignored.
// Large image: A large image is an image obtained after the original image is proportionally compressed. After the compression, the height or width (whichever is shorter) is equal to 720 pixels.
// Thumbnail: A thumbnail is an image obtained after the original image is proportionally compressed. After the compression, the height or width (whichever is shorter) is equal to 198 pixels.
List<V2TIMImageElem.V2TIMImage> imageList = v2TIMImageElem.getImageList();
for (V2TIMImageElem.V2TIMImage v2TIMImage : imageList) {
// Image ID, which is an internal ID and can be used as an external cache key
String uuid = v2TIMImage.getUUID();
// Image types, encompassing three distinct varieties: V2TIM_IMAGE_TYPE_ORIGIN (Original), V2TIM_IMAGE_TYPE_THUMB (Thumbnail), and V2TIM_IMAGE_TYPE_LARGE (Large).
int imageType = v2TIMImage.getType();
// Image size (bytes)
int size = v2TIMImage.getSize();
// Image width
int width = v2TIMImage.getWidth();
// Image height
int height = v2TIMImage.getHeight();
// Image download url
String url = v2TIMImage.getUrl();
// Set the image download path `imagePath`. Here, `uuid` can be used as an identifier to avoid repeated download.
String imagePath = "/sdcard/im/image/" + "myUserID" + uuid;
File imageFile = new File(imagePath);
// Determine whether there is a downloaded image file in `imagePath`
if (!imageFile.exists()) {
// Download the image
v2TIMImage.downloadImage(imagePath, new V2TIMDownloadCallback() {
@Override
public void onProgress(V2TIMElem.V2ProgressInfo progressInfo) {
// Callback for download progress. `v2ProgressInfo.getCurrentSize()` indicates the downloaded file size, and `v2ProgressInfo.getTotalSize()` indicates the total file size.
}
@Override
public void onError(int code, String desc) {
// Download failed
}
@Override
public void onSuccess() {
// Downloaded
}
});
} else {
// The image already exists.
}
}
}
}

Video message

After a video message is received, a video preview is displayed on the chat page, and the video is played back after the user clicks the message. Two steps are required:
1. Download the video screenshot. We recommend you call the SDK's downloadSnapshot (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) for download.
2. Download the video. We recommend you call the SDK's downloadVideo (Android / iOS and macOSWindows) for download.
To avoid repeated download and save resources, we recommend you set the videoUUID attribute value of the V2TIMVideoElem object to the video download path to identify the video.
The following sample code demonstrates how to parse the video content from V2TIMMessage:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows

// Video ID, which is an internal ID and can be used as an external cache key
String videoUUID = v2TIMVideoElem.getVideoUUID();
// Video file size
int videoSize = v2TIMVideoElem.getVideoSize();
// Video duration

Emoji message

The SDK provides a passthrough channel only for emoji messages. For message content fields, see the definition of V2TIMFaceElem (Android / iOS and macOSWindows). Here, index and data can be customized.
For example, the sender can set index to 1 and data to x12345 to indicate the smile emoji. The receiver parses the received emoji message as 1 and x12345 and displays the message as the smile emoji according to the preset rules.
The following sample code demonstrates how to parse the emoji content from V2TIMMessage:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
public void onRecvNewMessage(V2TIMMessage msg) {
if (msg.getElemType() == V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_ELEM_TYPE_FACE) {
// Emoji message
V2TIMFaceElem v2TIMFaceElem = msg.getFaceElem();
// Emoji location
int index = v2TIMFaceElem.getIndex();
// Custom emoji data
byte[] data = v2TIMFaceElem.getData();
}
}
- (void)onRecvNewMessage:(V2TIMMessage *)msg {
if (msg.elemType == V2TIM_ELEM_TYPE_FACE) {
V2TIMFaceElem *faceElem = msg.faceElem;
// Emoji location
int index = faceElem.index;
// Custom emoji data
NSData *data = faceElem.data;
NSLog(@"Emoji information: index: %d, data: %@", index, data);
}
}
class AdvancedMsgListener final : public V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener {
public:
void OnRecvNewMessage(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {
if (message.elemList.Size() == 1) {
V2TIMElem* elem = message.elemList[0];
if (elem->elemType == V2TIMElemType::V2TIM_ELEM_TYPE_FACE) {
// Emoji message
auto faceElem = static_cast<V2TIMFaceElem*>(elem);
// Emoji location
uint32_t index = faceElem->index;
// Custom emoji data
V2TIMBuffer data = faceElem->data;
}
}
}
// Other members ...
};

// Note that `advancedMsgListener` should not be released before the IM SDK is uninitialized,
// otherwise the message callback cannot be called.
AdvancedMsgListener advancedMsgListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->AddAdvancedMsgListener(&advancedMsgListener);

Receiving a Broadcast Message

You can only use the Broadcast Message of Audio-Video Group to send broadcast messages to all AVChatRooms under the same AppID, and all online group members in the AVChatRooms can receive this message. The SDK cannot send broadcast messages, it can only receive messages from the REST API. The receiving of messages is still in the onRecvNewMessage notification mentioned earlier. After receiving a message, you can determine whether the message is a broadcast message based on the isBroadcastMessage property.
Note
1. To use this feature, you need to purchase the Premium edition.
2. This feature is available only in SDK enhanced edition v6.5.2803 or later.
3. Only AVChatRoom supports broadcast message, other types of group are temporarily not supported.
Android
iOS & Mac
Windows
public void onRecvNewMessage(V2TIMMessage msg) {
if (msg.isBroadcastMessage) {
// Received the broadcast message
}
}
- (void)onRecvNewMessage:(V2TIMMessage *)msg {
if (msg.isBroadcastMessage) {
// Received the broadcast message
}
}
class AdvancedMsgListener final : public V2TIMAdvancedMsgListener {
public:
void OnRecvNewMessage(const V2TIMMessage& message) override {
if (message.isBroadcastMessage) {
// Received the broadcast message
}
}
// Other members ...
};

// Note that `advancedMsgListener` should not be released before the IM SDK is uninitialized,
// otherwise the message callback cannot be called.
AdvancedMsgListener advancedMsgListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetMessageManager()->AddAdvancedMsgListener(&advancedMsgListener);

Receiving a Message Containing Multiple Elements

1. Parse the first element object through the Message object.
2. Get the next element object through the nextElem method of the first element object. If the next object exists, an element object instance is returned; otherwise, nil or null is returned.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
@Override
public void onRecvNewMessage(V2TIMMessage msg) {
// View the first element
int elemType = msg.getElemType();
if (elemType == V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_ELEM_TYPE_TEXT) {
// Text message
V2TIMTextElem v2TIMTextElem = msg.getTextElem();
String text = v2TIMTextElem.getText();
// Check whether `v2TIMTextElem` is followed by more elements
V2TIMElem elem = v2TIMTextElem.getNextElem();
while (elem != null) {
// Identify the element type. Here, `V2TIMCustomElem` is used as an example.
if (elem instanceof V2TIMCustomElem) {
V2TIMCustomElem customElem = (V2TIMCustomElem) elem;
byte[] data = customElem.getData();
}
// Further check whether the current element is followed by more elements
elem = elem.getNextElem();
}
// If the element is `null`, all the elements have been parsed.
}
}
- (void)onRecvNewMessage:(V2TIMMessage *)msg {
// View the first element
if (msg.elemType == V2TIM_ELEM_TYPE_TEXT) {
V2TIMTextElem *textElem = msg.textElem;
NSString *text = textElem.text;
NSLog(@"Text information: %@", text);
// Check whether `textElem` is followed by more elements
V2TIMElem *elem = textElem.nextElem;
while (elem != nil) {
// Identify the element type
if ([elem isKindOfClass:[V2TIMCustomElem class]]) {
V2TIMCustomElem *customElem = (V2TIMCustomElem *)elem;
NSData *customData = customElem.data;
NSLog(@"Custom information: %@",customData);
}
// Further check whether the current element is followed by more elements
elem = elem.nextElem;
}
// If the element is `nil`, all the elements have been parsed.
}
