Allow using send button when there is no message text #136

Open singpolyma opened 9 months ago

singpolyma commented 9 months ago

In my app sometimes a user can attach a file, then push send, without typing a message. I can use sendDisabled to make the button become enabled when there is an attachment, but clicking it does not trigger the onSend handler because of https://github.com/chatscope/chat-ui-kit-react/blob/master/src/components/MessageInput/MessageInput.jsx#L134

I think this check should be replaced with a sendDisabled check, or no check since the button disablement should be enough to prevent this from being called when we don't want it.

This is just as interesting to me, hint how to implement it

@singpolyma please you can help with it?

I think this behavior should be controlled by dedicated flag. For now as a workaround you can set <MessageInput sendButton={false} />, and use custom send button like in this story: Wrapped MessageInput
