Basic usage#
A typical use case for the MessageReactions component would be to use in your custom components that will completely override the message component.
@Component({
selector: "app-custom-message",
template: `
<stream-message-reactions
[isSelectorOpen]="isReactionSelectorOpen"
[messageId]="message.id"
[messageReactionCounts]="message.reaction_counts"
[latestReactions]="message.latest_reactions"
[ownReactions]="message.own_reactions"
></stream-message-reactions>
<!-- Other parts of the custom message component -->
`,
})
export class CustomMessageComponent {
@Input() message: StreamMessage;
isReactionSelectorOpen: boolean;
}
