How to create an instance of the FormMessage class:
  • TypeScript
// Create an instance of APIAction
let apiAction = new APIAction("https://example.com/api", "POST");

// Create an instance of ButtonElement
let submitButton = new ButtonElement("1", apiAction, "Submit");

// Create an instance of TextInput
let nameInput = new TextInput("1", "Please enter your name");
// Create a new instance of FormMessage

let formMessage = new FormMessage(
  "receiverId",
  CometChat.RECEIVER_TYPE.USER,
  "Title",
  [nameInput],
  submitButton
);

Key Properties and Methods

​
Goal Completion Text

The setGoalCompletionText() method sets the goal completion text of the form.
  • TypeScript
let formMessage = new FormMessage(
  "receiverId",
  CometChat.RECEIVER_TYPE.USER,
  "Title",
  [nameInput],
  submitButton
);
formMessage.setGoalCompletionText("Goal completed");

​
Example

Below is an example that showcases the creation and manipulation of an instance of FormMessage:
  • TypeScript
// Create an instance of APIAction

let apiAction = new APIAction("https://example.com/api", "POST");

// Create an instance of ButtonElement

let submitButton = new ButtonElement("1", apiAction, "Submit");

// Create a new instance of FormMessage

let formMessage = new FormMessage(
  "receiverId",
  CometChat.RECEIVER_TYPE.USER,
  "customType",
  "Title",
  [],
  submitButton
);

formMessage.setGoalCompletionText("Goal completed");
In this example, a new instance of the FormMessage class is created. The title, form fields, submit element, and goal completion text are retrieved, updated, and retrieved again. Then a new FormMessage instance is made from a JSON object, and the title is retrieved and logged.
