Fetch Comment Likes

The Fetch Comment Likes feature in the LikeMinds Android SDK enables users to retrieve information about the number of likes received by a specific comment. This functionality allows developers to display the total number of likes on a comment, providing users with social validation and engagement metrics.

Steps to fetch likes on a comment

1. Create a GetCommentLikesRequest object using GetCommentLikesRequest.Builder class by passing all the required parameters.
2. Call getCommentLikes() function using the instance of LMFeedClient.
3. Process the response (LMResponse<GetCommentLikesResponse>) as per your requirement.

CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.IO).launch {
    // object of GetCommentLikesRequest
    val getCommentLikesRequest = GetCommentLikesRequest.Builder()
                        .postId("ENTER POST ID") // post id of comment whose likes are fetched
                        .commentId("ENTER COMMENT ID") // id of comment whose likes are fetched
                        .page(1) // page number for paginated data
                        .pageSize(10) // page size for paginated data
                        .build()
    // get response (LMResponse<GetCommentLikesResponse>)
    val response = LMFeedClient.getInstance().getCommentLikes(getCommentLikesRequest)
    if (response.success) {
        // your function to process the response data
        processGetCommentLikesResponse(response.data)
    } else {
        // your function to process error message
        processError(response.errorMessage)
    }
}

note

Same function can be used to fetch likes on a reply as well. Just pass the id of the reply as comment id.
