Currently I've included a display name and a phone number as shown in the code. But when I'm showing the message to the user it should show @displayName, and when sending the message to the server it should go as @phoneNumber. How to have this functionality?
I'm returning a text and a context with AutoCompletion object in autocompleteManager, how do I retrieve this context and send it to server
current autocompleteManager function
func autocompleteManager(_ manager: AutocompleteManager, autocompleteSourceFor prefix: String) -> [AutocompleteCompletion] {
if prefix == "@" {
return self.contactsArray
.map { user in
return AutocompleteCompletion(text: user.displayName,
context: ["id": user.phoneNumber,"text":user.displayName])
}
}else if prefix == "#" {
return self.tasks
.map { task in
return AutocompleteCompletion(text: task.title, context: ["id":task.documentID])
}
}
return []
}
input bar didPressSendButtonWith
func inputBar(_ inputBar: InputBarAccessoryView, didPressSendButtonWith text: String) {
if let text = inputBar.inputTextView.text {
guard let id = serviceManager?.discussionService?.addMessage() else { return }
let textWithNumber = replaceUserName(text: text)
let message = DisscussionMessage(text: textWithNumber, user: (serviceManager?.authService?.getCurrentUser())!, messageId: id, date: Date(), groupId: self.group?.documentID ?? "")
self.saveMessage(message)
}
inputBar.inputTextView.text = ""
messagesCollectionView.scrollToBottom()
}
In the replaceUserName() function I'm taking the text and replacing the name which has an @ in the beginning.
