flutter_gb_messenger 3.1.0

A comprehensive Flutter package for implementing messaging and chat functionality in GeekBears applications, providing customizable templates and BLoC-based state management.

3.1.0

• Feature: Thread appUserId through the chat room list stack

  • appUserId is now accepted and forwarded across the entire chat room list chain: ChatRoomListTemplate → ChatRoomListTemplateBlocProvider → ChatRoomListTemplateBloc → ChatRoomListTemplateState This allows the bloc and state to be aware of the current user identity from the moment they are created, enabling per-user filtering and logic without relying on late injection. Files: chat_room_list_template.dart, messenger_bloc_providers.dart, chat_room_list_template_bloc.dart, chat_room_list_template_state.dart

• Bug Fix: Duplicate message prevention

  • Both on send result and on external event received, the bloc now checks whether the incoming message id is already present in the list before inserting it. This prevents duplicates that could occur when a sent message is echoed back via the real-time event channel.
  • File: chat_room_view_template_container_bloc.dart

• Bug Fix: getRoomMessages query params being overwritten

  • The URL builder for getRoomMessages was replacing all existing query parameters instead of merging them. Changed from {...params.toQueryParameters()} to {...url.queryParameters, ...params.toQueryParameters()} so base URL params are preserved.
