Map<String, String> options = new HashMap<>();
options.put("instanceLocator", "YOUR_INSTANCE_LOCATOR");
options.put("key", "YOUR_KEY");

//value in seconds, this is optional, default value is (24 * 60 * 60) seconds means 24 hours
options.put("expireIn", 3600);
ChatKit chatKit = new ChatKit(options);

Authentication

To authenticate a user (a Chatkit client) or you can say AWT token, use the authenticate function.

String userId = "someuser"; //the existing user at chatkit
ApiResponse responseBody = new ApiResponse();
try {
    responseBody = chatKit.authenticate(userId);
}catch(Exception e){
    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}

//just check the response
System.out.println(responseBody.toString());

Get, Create and Update user

To create a user you must provide an id and a name. You can optionally provide an avatar_url (String) and custom_data (Map<String,String>).

String userId = "someuser"; 
Map<String, Object> data = new HashMap<>();
Map<String, String> customData = new HashMap<>();
customData.put("email", "[email protected]");

data.put("name", "Some User");
data.put("avatar_url", "avatar url");
data.put("custom_data", customData);

try{
    ApiResponse apiResponse = chatKit.getUser(userId); //check user already created
    if(apiResponse.getStatus() == 404){
        chatKit.createUser(userId, data);
    }else{
        chatKit.updateUser(userId, data);
    }
}catch(Exception e){
    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}

String userId = "someuser"; 

try{
    ApiResponse apiResponse = chatKit.deleteUser(userId);
}catch(Exception e){
    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}

String createrId = "someuser"; 
Map<String, Object> data = new HashMap<>();
List<String> userIds = new ArrayList<>();
userIds.add("seth");
userIds.add("ritesh");

data.put("name", "Room Name"); //optional
data.put("private", false); //optional
data.put("user_ids", userIds); //optional

try{
    chatKit.createRoom(createrId, data);
}catch(Exception e){
    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}

Get User Rooms (Joinable and joined)

To get a room you must provide the ID.

String userId = "someuser"; 

//Get joinable rooms (means user can join)
try{
    ApiResponse apiResponse = chatKit.getUserJoinableRooms(userId);
}catch(Exception e){
    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}

//Get user rooms 
try{
    ApiResponse apiResponse = chatKit.getUserRooms(userId);

    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
