sending links in message component about chat-ui-kit-react HOT 6 CLOSED

@Rushsoul What exactly do you mean by "send them as it is"?
Do you want to get DOMTree from contentediable div as a onSend callback param? If so, what do you want to achieve by this?

May be they want to copy image and paste it

i will tell u the problem, lets se in all other message applications when we paste some link and send in chat, it will be sent as link only , i mean receiver no need to copy that link, by just clicking on it, it will open that link in chrome.

@Rushsoul Ok, I understand now what you want to achieve.
But now in onSend callback you are getting innerHTML of message input.
So if user copy a link from notepad, or from website by choosing "copy link address" from right-click context menu, this link is copied to buffer as clear text.
When user paste this link to message input, this is also pasted as clear text without html "A" tag and you will get it in callback also as clear text.

In other case when user mark some linked text on website and do CTRL+C on keyboard this is copied as HTML to buffer.
When user paste this link to message input, this is pasted as html code with A tag and you will get it in callback as html.

I think, you are talking about first case. But it's up to you to process message received as a clear text, find link in it and wrap this link in html A tag.
This library is UI library and has nothing to do with text processing.

Moreover you should always sanitize all pasted content, because it's potentialy dangerous (it can contains dangerous scripts, or it just might ruin your layout).
Please never send direct html without sanitization to other user.

And one more important thing:
When you send copied html link directly without any processing, you don't know what you send. So if this link have target="_self" when your remote user click on this link it will be opened in the same browser window, so your chat application will gone. This is probably not expected behaviour :)

That's why you should always keep an eye on what you send and display.
