Send DM Request

Sends a direct message request to another user. This function allows users to initiate or continue a direct message conversation by sending a message, updating the chat request state, or attaching additional metadata to the message.

Steps to send a DM request

1. Create a SendDMRequest object using SendDMRequest.builder() class by passing all the required parameters.
2. Call sendDMRequest() function using the instance of LMChatClient.
3. Process the response LMResponse<SendDMResponse> as per your requirement.

let request = SendDMRequest.builder()
    .chatRequestState(1)
    .text("YOUR_TEXT")
    .chatroomId("ENTER_CHATROOM_ID")
    .metadata(["key": "value"]) // Optional: attach custom metadata
    .build()

LMChatClient.shared.sendDMRequest(request: request) { response in
    if let data = response.data {
        // Process the send DM response
        processSendDMResponse(data)
        // Access metadata if present
        if let metadata = data.conversation?.metadata {
            print("Metadata: \(metadata)")
        }
    } else if let error = response.error {
        // Handle the error
        handleError(error)
    }
}
