You need another feature? you can use the customProperties field of the models, it allows you to pass other data to the library that you can then use inside custom builders to implement any feature you need.

Of course, if you think this feature can be useful to other people, feel free to open an issue/pull-request to discuss including it "natively" in the package.

Basic Usage

import 'package:dash_chat_2/dash_chat_2.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

class Basic extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _BasicState createState() => _BasicState();
}

class _BasicState extends State<Basic> {
  ChatUser user = ChatUser(
    id: '1',
    firstName: 'Charles',
    lastName: 'Leclerc',
  );

  List<ChatMessage> messages = <ChatMessage>[
    ChatMessage(
      text: 'Hey!',
      user: user,
      createdAt: DateTime.now(),
    ),
  ];

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: const Text('Basic example'),
      ),
      body: DashChat(
        currentUser: user,
        onSend: (ChatMessage m) {
          setState(() {
            messages.insert(0, m);
          });
        },
        messages: messages,
      ),
