}
},
mounted() {
document.querySelector('vue-advanced-chat').currentUserId = this.currentUserId
document.querySelector('vue-advanced-chat').rooms = this.rooms
document.querySelector('vue-advanced-chat').messages = this.messages
}
}
</script>
Important notes
vue-advanced-chat
component is performance oriented, hence you have to follow specific rules to make it work properly.
- Use array assignement instead of
push
method
// DO THIS
const rooms = []
for (let i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
rooms.push(res)
}
this.rooms = rooms
// DON'T DO THIS
for (let i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
this.rooms.push(res)
}
// DO THIS
this.rooms[i].typingUsers = [...this.rooms[i].typingUsers, typingUserId]
// DON'T DO THIS
this.rooms[i].typingUsers.push(typingUserId)
- To add or replace an item inside an array, use spread operator
// DO THIS
this.rooms[roomIndex] = room
this.rooms = [...this.rooms]
// DON'T DO THIS
this.rooms[roomIndex] = room
// AND DON'T DO THIS
this.rooms.push(room)
- Follow the UI loading pattern by updating
messagesLoaded
prop every time a new room is fetched
fetchMessages({ room, options }) {
this.messagesLoaded = false
// use timeout to imitate async server fetched data
setTimeout(() => {
this.messages = []
this.messagesLoaded = true
})
}

Props data structure
Your props must follow a specific structure to display rooms and messages correctly:
Rooms prop
rooms="[
{
roomId: 1,
roomName: 'Room 1',
avatar: 'assets/imgs/people.png',
unreadCount: 4,
index: 3,
lastMessage: {
content: 'Last message received',
senderId: 1234,
username: 'John Doe',
timestamp: '10:20',
saved: true,
distributed: false,
seen: false,
new: true
},
users: [
{
_id: 1234,
username: 'John Doe',
avatar: 'assets/imgs/doe.png',
status: {
state: 'online',
lastChanged: 'today, 14:30'
}
},
{
_id: 4321,
username: 'John Snow',
avatar: 'assets/imgs/snow.png',
status: {
state: 'offline',
lastChanged: '14 July, 20:00'
}
}
],
typingUsers: [ 4321 ]
}
]"
If you add the
index
property, your rooms will be ordered using this value.index
can be any sortable value, like astring
,datetime
,timestamp
, etc.For each room user, you can add the
status
property, which can hold thestate
andlastChanged
properties:state
can be'online'
or'offline'
lastChanged
is the date whenstate
was last modified.
typingUsers
is an array of all the users who are currently writing a message
Messages prop
Message objects are rendered differently depending on their type. Text, emoji, image, video and file types are supported.
Each message object has a senderId
field which holds the id of the corresponding agent. If senderId
matches the currentUserId
prop, specific UI and actions will be implemented.
Notes:
username
will be displayed on each message of corresponding agents if at least 3 users are in the roomsystem
is used to show messages with a specific centered displayindexId
can be used if you need to change a message ID that is already displayed in a room, this preventing an animation glitch. For example, when you don't know in advance the message ID your backend will create.

Using with Firestore
Source code

folder.
To test it using your own Firebase project:
- Setup Cloud Firestore (to store users and rooms) and Realtime Database (to store users online status)
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/antoine92190/vue-advanced-chat.git
- Inside
demo/src/firestore/index.js
file, replace the lineconst config = ...
by your own Firebase config - Go inside
demo
folder and runnpm run serve
Data structure
If you decide to use the same code as in the demo
folder to create your chat app, you need to have a specific Firestore data structure.
To help you get started, I added in demo/src/App.vue
a method addData
to initialize some data on your Firestore database.
Users collection
users: {
USER_ID_1: {
_id: 1,
username: 'User 1'
},
USER_ID_2: {
_id: 2,
username: 'User 2'
},
USER_ID_3: {
_id: 3,
username: 'User 2'
}
}
Rooms collection
chatRooms: {
ROOM_ID_1: {
users: [1, 3]
},
ROOM_ID_2: {
users: [1, 2, 3]
}
}
Messages collection inside a room document
messages: {
MESSAGE_ID_1: {
content: 'My first message to <usertag>John</usertag>',
senderId: 2,
timestamp: 'December 11, 2019 at 4:00:00 PM',
seen: true
}
}
Notes
- You need to create a composite index to order rooms by last message received. The easiest way to do it is to create a room, then click the error message url in the browser debugging console.
