Twilio Chat is a service for messages delivery over ip networks. Visit our official site for more detalis: https://www.twilio.com/chat
To use the library you need to generate a token and pass it to the Chat Client constructor.
npm install --save twilio-chat
Using this method, you can require twilio-chat and then use the client:
const { Client } = require('twilio-chat');
const client = new Client(token);
// Before you use the client, subscribe to the `'stateChanged'` event and wait
// for the `'initialized'` state to be reported.
client.on('stateChanged', (state) => {
if (state === 'initialized') {
// Use the client
}
}
The SDK could also be imported using the ES module syntax:
import { Client } from 'twilio-chat';
const client = new Client(token);
// Before you use the client, subscribe to the `'stateChanged'` event and wait
// for the `'initialized'` state to be reported.
client.on('stateChanged', (state) => {
if (state === 'initialized') {
// Use the client
}
}
Releases of twilio-chat.js are hosted on a CDN, and you can include these
directly in your web app using a <script> tag.
<script src="https://media.twiliocdn.com/sdk/js/chat/v6.0/twilio-chat.min.js"></script>
Using this method, twilio-chat.js will set a browser global Twilio.Chat through which you can use the client:
const client = new Twilio.Chat.Client(token);
