Overview
CometChatGroupMembers is a versatile Component designed to showcase all users who are either added to or invited to a group, thereby enabling them to participate in group discussions, access shared content, and engage in collaborative activities. Group members have the capability to communicate in real-time through messaging, voice and video calls, and various other interactions. Additionally, they can interact with each other, share files, and join calls based on the permissions established by the group administrator or owner.
The CometChatGroupMembers component is composed of the following BaseComponents:
| Components | Description |
|---|
| CometChatListBase | CometChatListBase serves as a container component equipped with a title (navigationBar), search functionality (search-bar), background settings, and a container for embedding a list view. |
| CometChatListItem | This component renders information extracted from a User object onto a tile, featuring a title, subtitle, leading view, and trailing view. experience, facilitating seamless navigation and interaction within the component. |
Usage
Integration
CometChatGroupMembers, as a custom view controller, offers flexible integration options, allowing it to be launched directly via button clicks or any user-triggered action. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates into tab view controllers. With group members, users gain access to a wide range of parameters and methods for effortless customization of its user interface.
The following code snippet exemplifies how you can seamlessly integrate the GroupMembers component into your application.
let group = Group(guid: <#T##String#>, name: <#T##String#>, groupType: <#T##CometChat.groupType#>, password: <#T##String?#>)
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
let naviVC = UINavigationController(rootViewController: cometChatGroupMembers)
self.present(naviVC, animated: true)
If you are already using a navigation controller, you can use the pushViewController function instead of presenting the view controller.
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. SetOnItemClick
This method proves valuable when users seek to override onItemClick functionality within CometChatGroupMembers, empowering them with greater control and customization options.
The setOnItemClick action doesn’t have a predefined behavior. You can override this action using the following code snippet.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setOnItemClick (onItemClick:{ groupMember, indexPath in
//Perform Your Action
})
2. SetOnItemLongClick
This method becomes invaluable when users seek to override long-click functionality within CometChatGroupMembers, offering them enhanced control and flexibility in their interactions.
The setOnItemLongClick action doesn’t have a predefined behavior. You can override this action using the following code snippet.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setOnItemLongClick (onItemLongClick:{ groupMember, indexPath in
//Perform Your Action
})
3. SetOnError
You can customize this behavior by using the provided code snippet to override the On Error and improve error handling.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setOnError (onError:{ error in
//Perform Your Action
})
4. SetOnBack
Enhance your application’s functionality by leveraging the SetOnBack feature. This capability allows you to customize the behavior associated with navigating back within your app. Utilize the provided code snippet to override default behaviors and tailor the user experience according to your specific requirements.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setOnBack (onBack:{
//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.
1. GroupsRequestBuilder
The GroupsRequestBuilder enables you to filter and customize the group list based on available parameters in GroupsRequestBuilder. This feature allows you to create more specific and targeted queries when fetching groups. The following are the parameters available in GroupsRequestBuilder
| Methods | Type | Description |
|---|
| setLimit | Int | Configure the maximum number of groups to fetch in a single request, optimizing pagination for smoother navigation. |
| setSearchKeyword | String | Employed to retrieve groups that match the provided string, facilitating precise searches. |
| scopes | [String] | used for fetching group members based on multiple scopes |
let group = Group(guid: "mrc-uid", name: "", groupType: .public, password: .none)
let groupMembersRequestBuilder = GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(guid: group.guid).set(limit: 2).set(scopes: ["admin"])
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group, groupMembersRequestBuilder: groupMembersRequestBuilder)
let naviVC = UINavigationController(rootViewController: cometChatGroupMembers)
self.present(naviVC, animated: true)
2. SearchRequestBuilder
The SearchRequestBuilder uses GroupsRequestBuilder enables you to filter and customize the search list based on available parameters in GroupsRequestBuilder. This feature allows you to keep uniformity between the displayed Groups List and searched Group List.
Example
let group = Group(guid: "mrc-uid", name: "", groupType: .public, password: .none)
let groupMembersRequestBuilder = GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(guid: group.guid)
.set(searchKeyword: "")
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group, groupMembersRequestBuilder: groupMembersRequestBuilder)
let naviVC = UINavigationController(rootViewController: cometChatGroupMembers)
self.present(naviVC, animated: true)
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.
Events emitted by the Join Group component is as follows.
| Event | Description |
|---|
| onGroupMemberBan | Triggers when the group member banned from the group successfully |
| onGroupMemberKick | Triggers when the group member kicked from the group successfully |
| onGroupMemberChangeScope | Triggers when the group member scope is changed in the group |
// View controller from your project where you want to listen events.
public class ViewController: UIViewController {
public override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Subscribing for the listener to listen events from user module
CometChatGroupEvents.addListener("UNIQUE_ID", self as CometChatGroupEventListener)
}
}
// Listener events from groups module
extension ViewController: CometChatGroupEventListener {
public func onGroupMemberBan(bannedUser: User, bannedGroup: Group) {
// Do Stuff
}
public func onGroupMemberKick(kickedUser: User, kickedGroup: Group) {
// Do Stuff
}
public func onGroupMemberChangeScope(updatedBy: User, updatedUser: User, scopeChangedTo: CometChat.MemberScope, scopeChangedFrom: CometChat.MemberScope, group: Group) {
// Do Stuff
}
}
///emit this when group member is banned from the group by logged in user.
CometChatGroupEvents.emitOnGroupMemberBan(bannedUser: User, bannedGroup: Group, bannedBy: User)
///emit this when group member is kicked from the group by logged in user.
CometChatGroupEvents.emitOnGroupMemberKick(kickedUser: User, kickedGroup: Group, kickedBy: User)
///emit this when group member's scope is changed by logged in user.
CometChatGroupEvents.emitOnGroupMemberChangeScope(updatedBy: User , updatedUser: User , scopeChangedTo: CometChat.MemberScope , scopeChangedFrom: CometChat.MemberScope, group: Group)
public override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
// Uncubscribing for the listener to listen events from user module
CometChatGroupEvents.removeListener("LISTENER_ID_USED_FOR_ADDING_THIS_LISTENER")
}

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 own views, layouts, and UI elements and then incorporate those into the component.
The Join Group component does not provide additional functionalities beyond this level of customization.
ListItemView
Utilize this property to assign a custom ListItem to the GroupMembers Component, allowing for enhanced customization and flexibility in its rendering.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setListItemView (listItemView:{ groupMember in
//Perform Your Action
})
CustomListItemGroupView and pass it inside the setListItemView() method.
import UIKit
import CometChatSDK
import CometChatUIKitSwift
class CustomListItemGroupView: UIView {
// Initialize your subviews
let titleLabel: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
label.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 16)
return label
}()
let statusIndicator: UIView = {
let view = UIView()
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
view.backgroundColor = .green
view.layer.cornerRadius = 5
return view
}()
let groupImageView: CometChatAvatar = {
let imageView = CometChatAvatar(frame: .zero)
imageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return imageView
}()
// Override the initializer
override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
// Add subviews and layout constraints
addSubview(groupImageView)
addSubview(titleLabel)
addSubview(statusIndicator)
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
groupImageView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leadingAnchor, constant: 8),
groupImageView.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: centerYAnchor),
groupImageView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40),
groupImageView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40),
titleLabel.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: centerYAnchor),
titleLabel.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: groupImageView.trailingAnchor, constant: 8),
titleLabel.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: trailingAnchor, constant: -8),
statusIndicator.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 10),
statusIndicator.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 10),
statusIndicator.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: titleLabel.trailingAnchor),
statusIndicator.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: titleLabel.bottomAnchor)
])
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
// Configure the view with a group member
func configure(with groupMember: GroupMember) {
titleLabel.text = groupMember.name
statusIndicator.backgroundColor = groupMember.joinedAt != 0 ? .systemPurple : .gray
if let avatarUrl = groupMember.avatar {
groupImageView.setAvatar(avatarUrl: avatarUrl, with: groupMember.name ?? "")
} else {
}
}
}
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setListItemView (listItemView:{ groupMember in
let customListItemGroupView = CustomListItemGroupView()
customListItemGroupView.configure(with: groupMember!) // pass group member here
return customListItemGroupView
})
Ensure to pass and present CometChatGroupMembers. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.
SubtitleView
You can set your custom Subtitle view using the .setSubtitleView() method. But keep in mind, by using this you will override the default Subtitle view functionality.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setSubtitleView (subtitleView:{ groupMember in
//Perform Your Action
})
- You can customize the subtitle view for each GroupMembers item to meet your requirements
Example
In this example, we will create a Custom_Subtitle_GroupMember_Viewa UIView file.
Custom_Subtitle_GroupMember_View

joinedAtLabel.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bottomAnchor)
])
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
func configure(with groupMember: GroupMember) {
memberNameLabel.text = "Member: \(groupMember.name ?? "")"
let date = Date(timeIntervalSince1970: Double(groupMember.joinedAt))
let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateStyle = .medium
joinedAtLabel.text = "Joined: \(dateFormatter.string(from: date))"
}
}
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setSubtitleView(subtitleView: { groupMember in
let customSubtitleGroupMemberView = CustomSubtitleGroupMemberView()
customSubtitleGroupMemberView.configure(with: groupMember!)
return customSubtitleGroupMemberView
})

let customErrorStateGroupView = CustomErrorStateGroupView
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group, groupMembersRequestBuilder: groupMembersRequestBuilder)
.set(errorView: customErrorStateGroupView)
Ensure to pass and present CometChatGroupMembers. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.
You can set the Custom Menus to add more options to the Groups component.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.set(menus: [UIBarButtonItem])
- You can customize the menus for groups to meet your requirements
Example
In this example, we’ll craft a custom button tailored for CometChatGroupMembers, 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 cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.set(menus: [customMenuButton])
Ensure to pass and present CometChatGroupMembers. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.
TailView
You can set a custom Tailview using .setTailView() to match the TailView view of your app.
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setTailView (tailView:{ groupMember in
//Perform Your Action
})

}
}
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setTailView(tailView: { groupMember in
let customTailGroupView = CustomTailGroupView()
customTailGroupView.configure(with: groupMember!)
return customTailGroupView
})
Ensure to pass and present CometChatGroupMembers. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.
Options
Enhance your GroupsMembers component by setting Custom Options to incorporate additional functionalities when swiping
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setOptions (options:{ group, groupMember in
//Perform Your Action
})
- You can customize the options for group members to meet your requirements
Example
In this example, we’ve enhanced the interface of CometChatGroupMembers by introducing a tailored feature. By adding a custom option, such as “Delete” with a corresponding trash icon, users can now enjoy a more interactive and user-friendly experience.
let customOption = CometChatGroupMemberOption(id: "custom_option_1",
title: "Delete",
icon: UIImage(systemName: "trash.square"),
backgroundColor: .red,
onClick: { groupMember, group, section, option, controller in
print("Custom option clicked!")
})
let cometChatGroupMembers = CometChatGroupMembers(group: group)
.setOptions(options: { group, groupMember in
return [customOption]
})
Ensure to pass and present CometChatGroupMembers. If a navigation controller is already in use, utilize the pushViewController function instead of directly presenting the view controller.
