interface ChatMessage

Returned by GET /api/chat, and sent by the server in chat_message and chat_message_updated. The client reads it through deserializeChatMessage, which turns its dates back into Dates.

Properties

id: string
userId: string
body: string

In Markdown, trimmed by the server.

optional
updatedAt: Date

Absent until the first edit.

optional
authorAvatarMime: string
optional
replyToId: string

Kept when the message it points to is deleted, while replyToAuthor and replyToBody then go absent.

optional
replyToAuthor: string
optional
replyToBody: string

The first 300 characters of the replied-to body, in Markdown.

optional
mentionsEveryone: boolean

Set when the body says @everyone and its author's role had chat:everyone when it was last written; absent otherwise. The client highlights the message for everyone and shows @everyone as a mention by it, never by the text, which anyone may type.

Usage

import { type ChatMessage } from "shared/chat.ts";
