List live events

You can use the LiveEventListViewController class as the starting point of using the UIKit. You can use this class to build a live event list view where a user can list, create, and enter a live event. When there is no connection between the client app and the Sendbird server, the UIKit will automatically reconnect the two using user information obtained during the UIKit authentication. Once the client app is connected to the Sendbird server, the LiveEventListViewController will show a list of live events.

You can start building a live event list view through the LiveEventListViewController class, which uses LiveEventTableViewCell to display each live event in the list. Use the following code to list live events in a view.

Note: LiveEventListViewController uses LiveEventListQuery from Sendbird Live SDK to retrieve the list of live events from the server. Initialize LiveEventListViewController by setting the LiveEventListQueryParams object. Otherwise, the default values for the query will be used.

let liveEventListVC = LiveEventListViewController()
let params = LiveEventListQueryParams()
params.state = .ongoing
liveEventListVC.fetchLiveEventQueryParams = params

self.present(liveEventListVC)
