The CometChatCallLogs component is composed of the following BaseComponents:

ComponentsDescription
CometChatListBaseCometChatListBase is a container component featuring a title, customizable background options, and a dedicated list view for seamless integration within your application's interface.
CometChatListItemThis component displays data retrieved from a CallLog object on a card, presenting a title and subtitle.

Usage

Integration

CometChatCallLogs being a wrapper component, offers versatility in its integration. It can be seamlessly launched via button clicks or any user-triggered action, enhancing the overall user experience and facilitating smoother interactions within the application.

Since CometChatCallLogs can be launched by adding the following code snippet to the XML layout file.

<com.cometchat.chatuikit.calls.calllogs.CometChatCallLogs
android:id="@+id/call_log"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />

If you're defining the CometChatCallLogs within the XML code or in your activity or fragment then you'll need to extract them and set them on the User object using the appropriate method.

CometChatCallLogs cometchatCallLogs = binding.callLog; // 'binding' is a view binding instance. Initialize it with `binding = YourXmlFileNameBinding.inflate(getLayoutInflater());` to use views like `binding.callLog` after enabling view binding.
Activity and Fragment

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

YourActivity.java
CometChatCallLogs cometchatCallLogs;

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

cometchatCallLogs = new CometChatCallLogs(this);

setContentView(cometchatCallLogs);
}

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. SetOnItemClickListener

This method proves valuable when users seek to override the onItemClick functionality within CometChatCallLogs, empowering them with greater control and customization options.

The setOnItemClickListener action doesn't have a predefined behavior. You can override this action using the following code snippet.

cometchatCallLogs.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener<CallLog>() {
@Override
public void OnItemClick(CallLog callLog, int i) {
//TODO
}
});
2. OnError

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

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

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 ChatSDK.

1. CallLogRequestBuilder

The CallLogRequestBuilder enables you to filter and customize the call list based on available parameters in CallLogRequestBuilder. This feature allows you to create more specific and targeted queries during the call. The following are the parameters available in CallLogRequestBuilder

Example

In the example below, we are applying a filter based on the limit and have a call recording.

CallLogRequest.CallLogRequestBuilder callLogRequestBuilder = new CallLogRequest.CallLogRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(20)
.setHasRecording(true);

cometchatCallLogs.setCallLogRequestBuilder(callLogRequestBuilder);
