🚀 Usage

Initialize

import { ACSChatClient } from '@globaljustice.us/gjs-chat-client';

// Example: URL and token from your backend
const SERVICE_URL = 'https://acs-backend-service.com';
const USER_TOKEN = 'user-access-token';

async function startChatClient() {
  const chatClient = ACSChatClient.getInstance();

  // Initialize the chat client
  await chatClient.initialize(SERVICE_URL, USER_TOKEN);

  // Subscribe to chat events
  chatClient.on('chatMessageReceived', (event) => {
    console.log('[Chat Message Received]:', event);
  });

  chatClient.on('chatMessageDeleted', (event) => {
    console.log('[Chat Message Deleted]:', event);
  });

  // Handle token refresh if needed
  setInterval(async () => {
    const newToken = await fetchNewTokenFromBackend();
    await chatClient.refreshToken(newToken);
  }, 1000 * 60 * 25); // Refresh every 25 minutes
}

startChatClient();

// Dummy function: Replace with real backend call
async function fetchNewTokenFromBackend() {
  return 'new-user-access-token';
}

Clean up

async function cleanupChatClient() {
  const chatClient = ACSChatClient.getInstance();
