Customizing Abp Modules #2215


User avatar

MILLENNIUM created

I have an issue with poor documentation with abp modules which I have without source code; For example the chat module, I read the article (https://docs.abp.io/en/commercial/latest/modules/chat) but I was not able to:

  • Customize the users that displayed for each user
  • Show only sub set of users that in a specific role or applied a custom condition
  • Add voice messages to the chat
  • Customize the front end template and their styles

How can I appy such customizations?

    Hi @MILLENNIUM,

    Customize the users that displayed for each user.

    I couldn't get it what you mean. Do you want to make custom profiles for users to be shown for each user?

    Show only sub set of users that in a specific role or applied a custom condition

    You can replace IContactAppService and impement your own logic to return contact list to UI.

    [Dependency(ReplaceServices = true)]
    [ExposeServices(typeof(IContactAppService))]
    public class MyCustomContactAppService : ChatAppService, IContactAppService
    {
        private IConversationRepository conversationRepository;
        public Task<List<ChatContactDto>> GetContactsAsync(GetContactsInput input)
        {
            // TODO: Your own implementation
        }
    
        public Task<int> GetTotalUnreadMessageCountAsync()
        {
            return conversationRepository.GetTotalUnreadMessageCountAsync(CurrentUser.GetId());
        }
    }
    

    Add voice messages to the chat

    Chat Module doesn't provide a full-featured messaging app. So, currenctly voice message feature isn't supported.

    Customize the front end template and their styles

    You can replace /Pages/Chat/Index.cshtml to change entire UI. You can see https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/UI/AspNetCore/Customization-User-Interface#overriding-a-razor-page-cshtml for more.

    Just place following Index.cshtml page to your web application under /Pages/Chat/

    @page "/Chat"
    @using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Localization
    @using Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc.UI.Packages.SignalR
    @using Volo.Chat.Localization
    @using Volo.Chat.Web.Pages.Chat
    @model IndexModel
    @inject IHtmlLocalizer<ChatResource> L
    @{
        ViewBag.PageTitle = L["Chat"];
    }
    @section styles {
        <abp-style-bundle name="@typeof(IndexModel).FullName">
            <abp-style src="/Pages/Chat/index.css"/>
        </abp-style-bundle>
    }
    @section scripts {
        <abp-script-bundle name="@typeof(IndexModel).FullName">
            <abp-script src="/client-proxies/chat-proxy.js" />
            <abp-script src="/Pages/Chat/index.js" />

    Hello,

    If you can download the source code, you can add it to your project and customize it as you see fit.

    If you do not have access to the source code, you can replace the chat component with 'Chat.ChatComponent'. For more details, please refer to the docs
