feat(server-commands): send chat message #105
Conversation
Adds the `sendPublicChatMessage` server command which allows plugins to send a message in the public chat. When a plugin calls this method, its name is registered to the message metadata so that it is possible to later identify which plugin sent the given message. Additionaly plugins may send a custom metadata to be saved in the messages metadata.
Adds metadata to the loaded chat message type, allowing plugins to identify the message owner and custom metadata sent via the `sendPublicChatMessage` server command. This is essential for plugins to custom-render their own messages based on the metadata.
Implements the `sendCustomPublicChatMessage` command that sends a custom chat message in the public chat which is not rendered by the BBB client itself. This type of message is meant to be custom-rendered by plugins.
This commit adds the `sendCustomPublicChatMessage` server command to the chat server command sample.
Adds a logic to track which messages were already styled. Also adds missing semicolon and comma.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
It looks very good, just that typo.
By the way, one comment that is worth mentioning, after this PR is merged of course, we should add a server-command to send message to private chats. And also, perhaps in the same next PR, add a data-consumption hook to look out for private chat creations. Tell me what you think of this idea!

I think it's a good idea! Adding the server command for sending private chat messages should be trivial once this PR is merged, because the chat server commands are all translated to a generic |
