Online & Typing status for chat app

Okay

And how about user online status?

what kind of system design do you have in place? is one chat a document? or somethin

You could use the User Preferences for this

https://appwrite.io/docs/client/account?sdk=flutter-default#accountGetPrefs

So when a user opens the app, change the 'isOnline' preference to true, and vice versa

Okay I will explain,

I have a list of friends, so any two people can have a conversation and so the conversation id is unique to these two people only.

On a chatting screen, when this two people are texting, i save messages with this unique conversation id

and each conversation is a document?

Yes

Would you like to have a look?

okay and how do you save the messages? Is it as a JSON object or something?

Aaaaaaa messages are in a collection as a document

Has attributes

okay i guess it wold be better if you showed me your full database structure.

Yes sure

Can I call you, to screen share?

I'd prefer if you can send screenshots or a video recording. I cant hop on a call right now.

okay sure

Tha kyou. But how do i update when I do offline suddenly?

Check out this package on pub: https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_fgbg

If the app is on the foreground, it's being used which means a user is online. If it's in the background, it is not being used so user is offline.

Thankyou Mr.Safwan
