Retrieving images from private endpoints (ImageMessage)

In ImageMessage, is it possible to add the possibility of adding headers for the uri.
Indeed, I wish to retrieve images from an endpoint that requires authentication, which means i have to pass a header such as "Authorization: Bearer ".
Alternatively, is it possible to create an ImageMessage that takes a NetworkImage as an image (and not a path or an URI)?
Thank you very much,

is there any example for writting a custom types?

i want a custome message type which can show lottie animations. but cannot find any example for introducing how to define a custom message. could anyone help?

[Bug] User copyWith constructor does not copy existing fields from old object

Consider the code -

user = types.User(
    id: Uuid().v4(),
    firstName: "Test",
    imageUrl: "https:// .... ", 
);

updatedUser = user.copyWith(
    lastSeen: DateTime.now()
);

The newUser contains only id and lastSeen fields. Other fields are null.

Expectation -
updatedUser should also contain all existing non-null fields from the previous User object

Private constructors

Hi,

I'm using your plugin and added some attributes to User and Room by extending them. However I can't do that now with the new update since the constructors are private. Only the factory constructor is available.

Definition of all atributes posibilities

Hello,

I am wondering if there is any file where each atribute is described. For example, I cannot find what an "agent" role for a room is.

Congratulations, good library, Thanks,

Question: Extending Message Types

We are evaluating using Flyer (it looks fantastic so far) for a project we are working on. I have one question about Message Types... I see that currently File, Image, and Text are supported. Can the Types be extended easily if we plan to add additional features and use our own backend? If so, is there a suggested way of doing this that will fall in line with future updates to the package?

Thanks for taking the time to answer this :)

Writing Custom Types

writing custom types is a pain currently for me how can it do that can someone reference me please?

copyWith sets roomId to null

General

What bug do you experience? 🐞

When copyWith is used on a Message Object, the roomId gets set to null.

How can it be reproduced? 🤔

1. Create a TextMessage or ImageMessage Object with a roomId set
2. use copyWith on this TextMessage
3. roomId is set to null

This seems to occur because of the way copyWith is implemented:

 @override
  Message copyWith({
    User? author,
    dynamic createdAt = _Unset,
    String? id,
    dynamic metadata = _Unset,
    dynamic previewData = _Unset,
    dynamic remoteId = _Unset,
    dynamic repliedMessage = _Unset,
    dynamic roomId,
    dynamic showStatus = _Unset,
    dynamic status = _Unset,
    String? text,
    dynamic updatedAt = _Unset,
  }) => _TextMessage(
        author: author ?? this.author,
        createdAt: createdAt == _Unset ? this.createdAt : createdAt as int?,
        id: id ?? this.id,
        metadata: metadata == _Unset
            ? this.metadata
            : metadata as Map<String, dynamic>?,
        previewData: previewData == _Unset
            ? this.previewData
            : previewData as PreviewData?,
        remoteId: remoteId == _Unset ? this.remoteId : remoteId as String?,
        repliedMessage: repliedMessage == _Unset
            ? this.repliedMessage
            : repliedMessage as Message?,
        roomId: roomId == _Unset ? this.roomId : roomId as String?,
        showStatus:
            showStatus == _Unset ? this.showStatus : showStatus as bool?,
        status: status == _Unset ? this.status : status as Status?,
        text: text ?? this.text,
        updatedAt: updatedAt == _Unset ? this.updatedAt : updatedAt as int?,
      );

When used, roomId is null and not _Unset. In that case it gets set to null.

What behavior is expected? 💡

roomId should not be set to null when copyWith is used.
