React based UI kit based on sendbird javascript SDK

We are introducing a new version of the Sendbird Chat UIKit. Version 3 features a new modular architecture with more granular components that give you enhanced flexibility to customize your web and mobile apps. Check out our migration guides.

yarn add @sendbird/uikit-react or if you're using npm npm i @sendbird/uikit-react

With Sendbird UI Kit React, we export these components: (See src/index.jsx)

• SendBirdProvider - The context provider for SDK component

• useSendbirdStateContext - Hook to access SendBirdProvider context

• sendBirdSelectors - A bunch of useful selectors that can be used along with useSendbirdStateContext

• Channel - A UI Component where conversations happen

• ChannelList - A ChannelList UI component

• ChannelSettings - A component to handle the settings of a given channel

• MessageSearch - To search for a message from a Channel

• OpenChannel - A UI Component where open channel conversations happen

• OpenChannelSettings - A component to handle the settings of a given channel And many more...

• App - is a full fledged app(group channel) component made by combining the above components so that you dont have to combine all the above components by hand. Also it can be used as an example for composing components to build a chat UI

Note 1: Dont forget to import the stylesheet from the repo too Note 2: Name of some components are different from the directories they are in(example -> Channel component is from Conversation component). Please keep that in mind

You need to install:

• nodejs 18>=
• npm 9>= or yarn 3>=

We use vite app for development and rollup for building the npm distribution(bundled JS file) Make sure you have nodejs and yarn installed and run

Make a copy of apps/testing/.env.example and save it as apps/testing/.env Set your appId to VITE_APP_ID

yarn install
yarn dev

• By default, vite app opens in https://localhost:5173/
• Please refer to the following link for more details: Link

We provide a Storybook to easily view and understand the components.
https://sendbird.github.io/sendbird-uikit-react/

yarn storybook

We use RollupJS for building the production bundle script that you want to use inside your applications.

We have both ESM and CJS output

yarn build

The bundled JS code can be found in ./dist The CSS is in ./dist/dist/index.css

Caveats

• We tried development on Mac OS / Linux systems. You might encounter problems in running yarn build in Windows machines

We have implemented tests for dumb ui components only. Technologies used: Jest and testing-library

yarn test

yarn lint

1. Define your component inside ./src.
2. Add the following line to ./rollup.module-exports.js:

   'NewComponent/SubComponent': 'location/of/NewComponent/SubComponent',
   

   • This component can be imported by the consumer as: import SubComponent from '@sendbird/uikit-react/NewComponent/SubComponent';

1. Use yarn run generate-component to generate a UI component in src/ui. It uses Plop.js to generate the component.
2. It can also be used to generate reducers.
3. Plop templates are found in here.

We use lamejs for converting audio formats It is a fast mp3 encoder written in JavaScript. The original repo is:
