Filter user list

You can filter and display only certain users in the user list managed by the UIKit. By customizing the user list, you can create a more tailored experience for your application.

The users of the UIKit inherits from the UserInfo interface. The following table lists the properties of UserInfo.

You can filter the user list by creating a custom adapter after inheriting from the CreateChannelUserListAdapter. To learn how to apply custom adapters, refer to this page.

class CustomFilterCreateChannelUserListAdapter : CreateChannelUserListAdapter() {

    /**
     * Only filter users whose nickname contains "E"
     */
    private val filteredUserList: List<UserInfo>
        get() = userList.filter { it.nickname?.contains("E", ignoreCase = true) == true }

    override fun getItem(position: Int): UserInfo {
        return filteredUserList[position]
    }
    override fun getItemCount(): Int {
        return filteredUserList.count()
    }
}
