Incoming Call

Overview

The Incoming call is a Component that serves as a visual representation when the user receives an incoming call, such as a voice call or video call, providing options to answer or decline the call.

The Incoming Call is comprised of the following base components:

Components	Description
cometchat-list-item	This component’s view consists of avatar, status indicator , title, and subtitle. The fields are then mapped with the SDK’s user, group class.
cometchat-icon	This component displays an icon. It currently supports only svg icons
cometchat-label	This component provides descriptive information about the associated UI element.
cometchat-button	This component represents a button with optional icon and text.
cometchat-avatar	This component component displays an image or user's avatar with fallback to the first two letters of the username

Usage

Integration

IncomingCallsDemo.tsx
App.tsx

import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  return <CometChatIncomingCall />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

import { IncomingCallsDemo } from "./IncomingCallsDemo";

export default function App() {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <div>
        <IncomingCallsDemo />
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

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. onAccept

onAccept is triggered when you click the accept button of the Incoming Call component. You can override this action using the following code snippet.

TypeScript
JavaScript

IncomingCallsDemo.tsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const handleOnAccept = () => {
    console.log("custom on accept action");
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall onAccept={handleOnAccept} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

IncomingCallsDemo.jsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const handleOnAccept = () => {
    console.log("custom on accept action");
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall onAccept={handleOnAccept} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

2. onDecline

onDecline is triggered when you click the Decline button of the Incoming Call component. You can override this action using the following code snippet.

TypeScript
JavaScript

IncomingCallsDemo.tsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const handleOnDecline = () => {
    console.log("your custom on decline action");
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall onDecline={handleOnDecline} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

IncomingCallsDemo.jsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const handleOnDecline = () => {
    console.log("your custom on decline action");
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall onDecline={handleOnDecline} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

3. onError

This action doesn't change the behavior of the component but rather listens for any errors that occur in the Incoming Call component.

TypeScript
JavaScript

IncomingCallsDemo.tsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const handleOnError = () => {
    console.log("your custom on error action");
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall onError={handleOnError} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

IncomingCallsDemo.jsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const handleOnError = () => {
    console.log("your custom on error action");
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall onError={handleOnError} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

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.

The Incoming Call component does not have any exposed filters.

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.

The list of events emitted by the Incoming Call component is as follows.

Event	Description
ccCallRejected	This event is triggered when the initiated call is rejected by the receiver.
ccCallAccepted	This event is triggered when the initiated call is accepted by the receiver.
ccCallEnded	This event is triggered when the initiated call successfully ends.

Add Listener

const ccCallRejected = CometChatCallEvents.ccCallRejected.subscribe(
  (call: CometChat.Call) => {
    //Your Code
  }
);

const ccCallAccepted = CometChatCallEvents.ccCallAccepted.subscribe(
  (call: CometChat.Call) => {
    //Your Code
  }
);

const ccCallEnded = CometChatCallEvents.ccCallEnded.subscribe(
  (call: CometChat.Call) => {
    //Your Code
  }
);

Remove Listener

ccCallRejected?.unsubscribe();

ccCallAccepted?.unsubscribe();

ccCallEnded?.unsubscribe();

Customization

To fit your app's design requirements, you can customize the appearance of the Incoming Call component. We provide exposed methods that allow you to modify the experience and behavior according to your specific needs.

Style

Using Style you can customize the look and feel of the component in your app, These parameters typically control elements such as the color, size, shape, and fonts used within the component.

1. IncomingCall Style

To customize the appearance, you can assign a IncomingCallStyle object to the Incoming Call component.

Example

In this example, we are employing the IncomingCallStyle.

  IncomingCallStyle,
} from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  const incomingCallStyle = new IncomingCallStyle({
    acceptButtonBackground: "#7b49de",
    acceptButtonTextColor: "#ffffff",
    background: "#8761d4",
    declineButtonBackground: "#4b08d1",
  });

  return <CometChatIncomingCall incomingCallStyle={incomingCallStyle} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

    <CometChatIncomingCall
      acceptButtonText="Your Custom Accept Button Text"
      declineButtonText="Your Decline Button Text"
      disableSoundForCalls={true}
    />
  );
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

IncomingCallsDemo.jsx
import { CometChatIncomingCall } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {
  return (
    <CometChatIncomingCall
      acceptButtonText="Your Custom Accept Button Text"
      declineButtonText="Your Decline Button Text"
      disableSoundForCalls={true}
    />
  );
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

      return <></>;
    }
  };

  return <CometChatIncomingCall subtitleView={getSubtitleView} />;
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

Configuration

Configurations offer the ability to customize the properties of each individual component within a Composite Component.

The Incoming Call Component is a Composite Component and it has a specific set of configuration for each of its components.

OngoingCall

If you want to customize the properties of the OngoingCall Component inside Incoming Call Component, you need use the CallScreenConfiguration object.

The OngoingCallConfiguration provides access to all the Action, Filters, Styles, Functionality, and Advanced properties of the OngoingCall component.

Please note that the properties marked with the report symbol are not accessible within the Configuration Object.

Example

In this example, we will show how you can display the call recording button in the OngoingCall component using ongoingCallConfiguration.

TypeScript
JavaScript

IncomingCallsDemo.tsx
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-javascript";
import { CometChatIncomingCall, CallScreenConfiguration } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {

  function customSettingBuilderForIncoming(call: any) {
    const builder = new CometChatUIKitCalls.CallSettingsBuilder();
    if (call?.getType() == CometChatUIKitConstants.MessageTypes.audio) {
      builder
        .enableDefaultLayout(true)
        .setIsAudioOnlyCall(true)
        .showRecordingButton(true);
    }
    else if (call?.getType() == CometChatUIKitConstants.MessageTypes.video) {
      builder
        .enableDefaultLayout(true)
        .setIsAudioOnlyCall(false)
        .showRecordingButton(true);
    }
    return builder;
  }
  return (
  <CometChatIncomingCall 
  ongoingCallConfiguration={new CallScreenConfiguration({
    callSettingsBuilder: customSettingBuilderForIncoming
  })}
  />
  );
};

export default IncomingCallsDemo;

IncomingCallsDemo.jsx
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-javascript";
import { CometChatIncomingCall, CallScreenConfiguration } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react";
import React from "react";

const IncomingCallsDemo = () => {

  function customSettingBuilderForIncoming(call) {
    const builder = new CometChatUIKitCalls.CallSettingsBuilder();
    if (call?.getType() == CometChatUIKitConstants.MessageTypes.audio) {
      builder
        .enableDefaultLayout(true)
        .setIsAudioOnlyCall(true)
        .showRecordingButton(true);
    }
    else if (call?.getType() == CometChatUIKitConstants.MessageTypes.video) {
      builder
        .enableDefaultLayout(true)
        .setIsAudioOnlyCall(false)
        .showRecordingButton(true);
    }
    return builder;
  }
  return (
  <CometChatIncomingCall
