Usage​

Integration​

CometChatCallLogRecordings is a component that seamlessly integrates into your application. To present the details of call recordings, you can simply instantiate the CometChatCallLogRecordings instance and set the list of recordings using its setRecordingList() property. This allows for easy customization and efficient display of call log recordings within your application's interface.

Since CometChatCallLogRecordings can be launched by adding the following code snippet into the XML layout file.

<com.cometchat.chatuikit.calls.callrecordings.CometChatCallLogRecordings
    android:id="@+id/call_log_recording"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

If you're defining the CometChatCallLogRecordings within the XML code or in your activity or fragment then you'll need to extract them and set the Recording List using the setRecordingList() method.

CometChatCallLogRecordings cometchatCallLogRecordings = binding.callLogRecording; // 'binding' is a view binding instance. Initialize it with `binding = YourXmlFileNameBinding.inflate(getLayoutInflater());` to use views like `binding.callLogRecording` after enabling view binding.

cometchatCallLogRecordings.setRecordingList(recordingList); // Required - Get the recording list from the CallLog object using getRecordings(), e.g., callLogObject.getRecordings()

Activity and Fragment​

You can integrate CometChatCallLogRecordings into your Activity and Fragment by adding the following code snippets into the respective classes.

YourActivity.java
CometChatCallLogRecordings cometchatCallLogRecordings;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    cometchatCallLogRecordings = new CometChatCallLogRecordings(this);
    cometchatCallLogRecordings.setRecordingList(recordingList); // Required - Get the recording list from the CallLog object using getRecordings(), e.g., callLogObject.getRecordings()

    setContentView(cometchatCallLogRecordings);
}

However, by utilizing the provided code snippet, you can seamlessly customize or override this default behavior to align with your specific application requirements.

cometchatCallLogRecordings.setOnDownloadClickListener(new OnItemClickListener<Recording>() {
    @Override
    public void OnItemClick(Recording recording, int i) {
        //TODO
    }
});

SetEmptyStateView report ​

You can set a custom EmptyStateView using setEmptyStateView() to match the error view of your app.

cometchatCallLogRecordings.setEmptyStateView();

Example

Image

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

empty_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"
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/txt_title"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true"
        android:text="No recordings available"
        android:textColor="@color/cometchat_grey"
        android:textSize="20sp"
        android:textStyle="bold" />

</RelativeLayout>

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

cometchatCallLogRecordings.setEmptyStateView(R.layout.empty_view_layout);

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

cometchatCallLogRecordings.setMenu();

Example

Image

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">

    <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.

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