Banned Members

Overview

CometChatBannedMembers is a crucial Component that showcases users who have been restricted from participating in specific groups or conversations. Once banned, users lose access to content and discussions within the affected group. Administrators or owners wield the authority to ban members from groups they oversee, enabling them to monitor user activity and behavior closely. With CometChatBannedMembers, administrators can take swift and appropriate actions to maintain group integrity and uphold community standards.

The BannedMembers 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.

Usage

Integration

CometChatBannedMembers, as a Composite Component, 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 banned 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 BannedMembers component into your application.

XML

<com.cometchat.chatuikit.bannedmembers.CometChatBannedMembers
    android:id="@+id/banned_members"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

If you’re defining the Group members within the XML code, you’ll need to extract them and set them on the Group object using the appropriate method.

Java

CometChatBannedMembers cometchatBannedMembers = binding.groupMember;
Group group = new Group();
group.setGuid("GROUP_ID");
group.setName("GROUP_NAME");
cometchatBannedMembers.setGroup(group);

Kotlin

val cometchatBannedMembers: CometChatBannedMembers = binding.groupMember
val group: Group = Group()
group.setGuid("GROUP_ID")
group.setName("GROUP_NAME")
cometchatBannedMembers.setGroup(group)

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 CometChatBannedMembers, 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.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.setItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener<GroupMember>() {
    @Override
    public void OnItemClick(GroupMember groupMember, int i) {
        
    }
});

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.setItemClickListener(object : OnItemClickListener<GroupMember>() {
    override fun OnItemClick(groupMember: GroupMember, i: Int) {
        
    }
})

---

2. SetOnError

You can customize this behavior by using the provided code snippet to override the On Error and improve error handling.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.setOnError(new OnError() {
    @Override
    public void onError(Context context, CometChatException e) {
        
    }
});

Kotlin

ccometchatBannedMembers.setOnError(OnError { context, e -> 
    
})

---

3. OnSelection

The OnSelection event is triggered upon the completion of a selection in SelectionMode. It does not have a default behavior. However, you can override its behavior using the following code snippet.

Java

YourActivity.java

cometchatBannedMembers.setSelectionMode(UIKitConstants.SelectionMode.MULTIPLE);
cometchatBannedMembers.setOnSelection(new CometChatBannedMembers.OnSelection() {
    @Override
    public void onSelection(List<GroupMember> list) {
        // Handle banned member selection here  
    }
});

Kotlin

YourActivity.kt

cometchatBannedMembers.setSelectionMode(UIKitConstants.SelectionMode.MULTIPLE)
cometchatBannedMembers.setOnSelection { list ->
    // Handle banned member selection here
}

---

4. AddOnBackPressListener

You can customize this behavior by using the provided code snippet to override the addOnBackPressListener and improve error handling.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.addOnBackPressListener(new CometChatListBase.OnBackPress() {
    @Override
    public void onBack() {

    }

});

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.addOnBackPressListener(CometChatListBase.OnBackPress {

})

---

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. BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder

The BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder enables you to filter and customize the Banned Members list based on available parameters in BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder. This feature allows you to create more specific and targeted queries when fetching banned members. The following are the parameters available in BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder

Property	Description	Code
Limit	Sets the number of banned members that can be fetched in a single request, suitable for pagination	.setLimit(Int)
Search Keyword	Used for fetching banned members matching the passed string	.setSearchKeyword(String)

Example

In the example below, we are applying a filter to the banned members by setting the limit to 1.

Java

BannedGroupMembersRequest.BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder = new BannedGroupMembersRequest.BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder("GUID")
        .setLimit(1);

cometchatBannedMembers.setBannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder(bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder);

Kotlin

val bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder = BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder("GUID")
    .setLimit(1)

cometchatBannedMembers.setBannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder(bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder)

---

2. SearchRequestBuilder

The SearchRequestBuilder uses BannedMembersRequestBuilder enables you to filter and customize the search list based on available parameters in BannedMembersRequestBuilder. This feature allows you to keep uniformity between the displayed Banned Members list and searched Banned Members.

Java

BannedGroupMembersRequest.BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder = new BannedGroupMembersRequest.BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder("GUID")
        .setLimit(1)
        .setSearchKeyword("SEARCH_KEYWORD");

cometchatBannedMembers.setSearchRequestBuilder(bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder);

Kotlin

val bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder = BannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder("GUID")
    .setLimit(1)
    .setSearchKeyword("SEARCH_KEYWORD")

cometchatBannedMembers.setSearchRequestBuilder(bannedGroupMembersRequestBuilder)

---

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
ccGroupMemberBanned	This method is triggered when the logged-in user successfully bans a user from the group.
ccGroupMemberUnBanned	This method triggers when the logged-in user successfully unbans a previously banned user from the group.

Java

CometChatGroupEvents.addGroupListener("LISTENER_ID", new CometChatGroupEvents() {
    @Override
    public void ccGroupMemberBanned(Action actionMessage, User bannedUser, User bannedBy, Group bannedFrom) {
        super.ccGroupMemberBanned(actionMessage, bannedUser, bannedBy, bannedFrom);
    }

    @Override
    public void ccGroupMemberUnBanned(Action actionMessage, User unbannedUser, User unBannedBy, Group unBannedFrom) {
        super.ccGroupMemberUnBanned(actionMessage, unbannedUser, unBannedBy, unBannedFrom);
    }

});

Kotlin

CometChatGroupEvents.addGroupListener("LISTENER_ID", object : CometChatGroupEvents() {
    override fun ccGroupMemberBanned(
        actionMessage: Action,
        bannedUser: User,
        bannedBy: User,
        bannedFrom: Group
    ) {

Advance

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 views, layouts, and UI elements and then incorporate those into the component.

SetListItemView

With this function, you can assign a custom ListItem to the List View Component.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.setListItemView(new BannedMembersViewHolderListeners() {
    @Override
    public View createView(Context context, CometChatListItem cometChatListItem) {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void bindView(Context context, View view, GroupMember groupMember, Group group, RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, List<GroupMember> list, int i) {

    }
});

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.setListItemView(object : BannedMembersViewHolderListeners() {
    override fun createView(
        context: Context?,
        cometChatListItem: CometChatListItem?
    ): View? {
        return null
    }

    override fun bindView(
        context: Context?,
        view: View?,
        groupMember: GroupMember?,
        group: Group?,
        viewHolder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder?,
        list: List<GroupMember?>?,
        i: Int
    ) {
    }
})

Example

You can indeed create a custom layout file named item_list.xml for more complex or unique list items.

Once this layout file is made, you would inflate it inside the createView() method of the BannedMembersViewHolderListeners. The inflation process prepares the layout for use in your application:

Following this, you would use the bindView() method to initialize and assign values to your individual views. This could include setting text on TextViews, images on ImageViews, and so on based on the properties of the Group object:

SetTailView

Used to generate a custom trailing view for the GroupList item. You can add a Tail view using the following method.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.setTailView(new BannedMembersViewHolderListeners() {
    @Override
    public View createView(Context context, CometChatListItem cometChatListItem) {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void bindView(Context context, View view, GroupMember groupMember, Group group, RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, List<GroupMember> list, int i) {

    }
});

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.setTailView(object : BannedMembersViewHolderListeners() {
    override fun createView(context: Context, cometChatListItem: CometChatListItem): View {
        return null
    }

    override fun bindView(
        context: Context,
        view: View,
        groupMember: GroupMember,
        group: Group,
        viewHolder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder,
        list: List<GroupMember>,
        i: Int
    ) {
    }
})

Example

You can indeed create a custom layout file named tail_view_layout.xml for more complex or unique list items.

Once this layout file is made, you would inflate it inside the createView() method of the BannedMembersViewHolderListeners. The inflation process prepares the layout for use in your application:

Following this, you would use the bindView() method to initialize and assign values to your individual views. This could include setting text on TextViews, images on ImageViews, and so on based on the properties of the Group object:

tail_view_layout.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/txt_subtitle"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Subtitle" />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/img_conversation"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/txt_subtitle"
        android:layout_margin="2dp"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_message_grey" />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/img_audio_call"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/txt_subtitle"
        android:layout_margin="2dp"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/img_conversation"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_call" />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/img_video_call"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/txt_subtitle"
        android:layout_margin="2dp"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/img_audio_call"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_video" />

</RelativeLayout>

Java

YourActivity.java

cometchatBannedMembers.setTailView(new BannedMembersViewHolderListeners() {
    @Override
    public View createView(Context context, CometChatListItem cometChatListItem) {
        View view = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.subtitle_layout, null);
        return view;
    }

    @Override
    public void bindView(Context context, View view, GroupMember groupMember, Group group, RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, List<GroupMember> list, int i) {
        TextView txtSubtitle = view.findViewById(R.id.txt_subtitle);
        ImageView imgConversation = view.findViewById(R.id.img_conversation);
        ImageView imgAudioCall = view.findViewById(R.id.img_audio_call);;
        ImageView imgVideCall = view.findViewById(R.id.img_video_call);;
        txtSubtitle.setText(group.getName());
        imgConversation.setOnClickListener(v -> {
            Toast.makeText(context, "Conversation Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        });
        imgAudioCall.setOnClickListener(v -> {
            Toast.makeText(context, "Audio Call Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        });
        imgVideCall.setOnClickListener(v -> {
            Toast.makeText(context, "Video Call Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        });
    }
});

Kotlin

YourActivity.kt

cometchatBannedMembers.setTailView(object : BannedMembersViewHolderListeners() {
override fun createView(context: Context, cometChatListItem: CometChatListItem): View {
    val view: View = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.subtitle_layout, null)
    return view
}

override fun bindView(
    context: Context,
    view: View,
    groupMember: GroupMember,
    group: Group,
    viewHolder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder,
    list: List<GroupMember>,
    i: Int
) {
    val txtSubtitle = view.findViewById<TextView>(R.id.txt_subtitle)
    val imgConversation = view.findViewById<ImageView>(R.id.img_conversation)
    val imgAudioCall = view.findViewById<ImageView>(R.id.img_audio_call)

    val imgVideCall = view.findViewById<ImageView>(R.id.img_video_call)

    txtSubtitle.text = group.name
    imgConversation.setOnClickListener { v: View? ->
        Toast.makeText(context, "Conversation Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    }
    imgAudioCall.setOnClickListener { v: View? ->
        Toast.makeText(context, "Audio Call Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    }
    imgVideCall.setOnClickListener { v: View? ->
        Toast.makeText(context, "Video Call Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    }
}
})

SetMenu

You can set the Custom Menu view to add more options to the Groups component.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.setMenu(View v);

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.setMenu(v)

Example

You need to create a view_menu.xml as a custom view file. Which we will inflate and pass to .setMenu().

view_menu.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/img_refresh"
        android:layout_width="30dp"
        android:layout_height="30dp"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_refresh_black" />

</LinearLayout>

You inflate the view and pass it to setMenu. You can get the child view reference and can handle click actions.

Java

YourActivity.java

View view = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.view_menu, null);
ImageView imgRefresh = view.findViewById(R.id.img_refresh);
imgRefresh.setOnClickListener(v -> {
    Toast.makeText(requireContext(), "Clicked on Refresh", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
});
cometchatBannedMembers.setMenu(view);

Kotlin

YourActivity.kt

val view: View = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.view_menu, null)
val imgRefresh = view.findViewById<ImageView>(R.id.img_refresh)
imgRefresh.setOnClickListener { v: View? ->
    Toast.makeText(requireContext(), "Clicked on Refresh", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
cometchatBannedMembers.setMenu(view)

---

SetOptions

You can set a List of CometChatOption for a Banned Members to add your custom actions to the Members. These options will be visible when swiping any Banned Members item.

Java

cometchatBannedMembers.setOptions((context, groupMember, group) -> {
    // Handle banned member options here (return null for default behavior)
    return null;
});

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.setOptions { context, groupMember, group ->
    // Handle banned member options here (return null for default behavior)
    return null
}

Example

Java

YourActivity.java

cometchatBannedMembers.setOptions((context, groupMember, group) -> {
    List<CometChatOption> optionList = new ArrayList<>();

    CometChatOption option = new CometChatOption();
    option.setId("option_send_photo");
    option.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_camera);
    option.setBackgroundColor(Color.CYAN);
    option.setOnClick(() -> {
        // Your Action onClick of option
    });
    optionList.add(option);

    CometChatOption option2 = new CometChatOption();
    option2.setId("option_audio_call");
    option2.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_call);
    option2.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLUE);
    option2.setOnClick(() -> {
        // Your Action onClick of option
    });
    optionList.add(option2);

    CometChatOption option3 = new CometChatOption();
    option3.setId("option_video_call");
    option3.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_video);
    option3.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
    option3.setOnClick(() -> {
        // Your Action onClick of option
    });
    optionList.add(option3);

    return optionList;

});

Kotlin

cometchatBannedMembers.setOptions { context, groupMember, group ->
    val optionList = ArrayList<CometChatOption>()

    val option1 = CometChatOption().apply {
        id = "option_send_photo"
        icon = context.resources.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_camera) // Access drawable using resources
        backgroundColor = Color.CYAN
        setOnClick {
            // Your action on click of option1
        }
    }
    optionList.add(option1)

    val option2 = CometChatOption().apply {
        id = "option_audio_call"
        icon = context.resources.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_call)
        backgroundColor = Color.BLUE
        setOnClick {
            // Your action on click of option2
        }
    }
    optionList.add(option2)

    val option3 = CometChatOption().apply {
        id = "option_video_call"
        icon = context.resources.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_video)
        backgroundColor = Color.RED
        setOnClick {
            // Your action on click of option3
        }
    }
    optionList.add(option3)

    return optionList
}
