Connection Controllers
ConnectionController
ChatConnectionController
allows you to connect/disconnect the ChatClient
and observe connection events.
Publishers in ChatConnectionController
The connectionStatusPublisher
will emit a new value every time the connection status changes.
Example: Connection Status
Let’s build a simple UIView that shows the current connection status.
class ConnectionStatusView: UIView {
var status = ConnectionStatus.connecting {
didSet {
labelView.text = "Connection status: \(status)"
}
}
var labelView: UILabel = {
var label = UILabel()
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
override public init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
addSubview(labelView)
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
labelView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topAnchor),
labelView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bottomAnchor),
labelView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leadingAnchor),
labelView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: trailingAnchor)
])
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: coder)
}
}
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var controller: ChatConnectionController!
var cancellables: Set<AnyCancellable> = []
var connectionStatusView: ConnectionStatusView = {
var view = ConnectionStatusView()
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return view
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
controller = ChatClient.shared.connectionController()
controller.connectionStatusPublisher.receive(on: RunLoop.main).sink { [weak self] connectionStatus in
self?.connectionStatusView.status = connectionStatus
}.store(in: &cancellables)
navigationItem.titleView = connectionStatusView
}
}
