Delete message

Overview

Returns an async function that soft-deletes a message. The message is removed from the local Redux store immediately. On the server, the message’s content is cleared and userDeletedAt is set — the record is retained for threading consistency.

Requires ChatProvider in the component tree.

Usage Example

import { useDeleteMessage } from "@sublay/react-js";

function MessageActions({
  conversationId,
  messageId,
}: {
  conversationId: string;
  messageId: string;
}) {
  const deleteMsg = useDeleteMessage();

  return (
    <button onClick={() => deleteMsg({ conversationId, messageId })}>
      Delete
    </button>
  );
}

Parameters

The hook returns a function. That function accepts:

conversationId

string

required

The ID of the conversation that contains the message.

messageId

string

required

The ID of the message to delete.

Returns

Promise<void>

Notes

Other participants see the deletion in real-time via the message:deleted socket event, which is handled automatically by ChatProvider. Their local copy of the message will have userDeletedAt set and content: null.
For integration guidance, see Chat: Messages.
