[🐛] Client UIKit and SDK are incompatible for Threads #2579

Open oddanderson opened 4 months ago

oddanderson commented 4 months ago

Issue

The UIKit for Threads requires a MessageType object for the following code snippet: <Channel channel={channel} thread={thread}>

However, the SDK to query both messages and threads returns objects that cannot be used as MessageType. e.g.

const threadMessage = await chatClient.getMessage(messageId); --> GetMessageAPIResponse<StreamChatGenerics>
const threads = await chatClient?.queryThreads({filter_logic}); --> Thread<StreamChatGenerics>[]

As a result, there is no way to query a thread object via the SDK and a messageId, and then render a thread on the screen. Currently. the only way to get a thread object is to do so from within MessageContext.

This means it's not possible in the React Native UIKit to receive a push notification about a comment on a message, and then take the user to a thread detail screen with the comments underneath.

I have verified that all other SDKs (React, Swift, Android) contain this functionality, allowing the UIKit to take a messageId: String parameter to render a thread list.

Hey @oddanderson, we have recently introduced a thread list, and that might help you with this. https://getstream.io/chat/docs/sdk/reactnative/guides/custom-thread-list/
