CometChat Calls SDK v5 — Event Listeners

Overview

Five protocol-based listeners monitor call events. All are registered on CallSession.shared after joining a session.

Key Imports

import CometChatCallsSDK

Implementation

1. SessionStatusListener

class CallCoordinator: NSObject, SessionStatusListener {
    func onSessionJoined() { /* connected */ }
    func onSessionLeft() { /* navigate away */ }
    func onSessionTimedOut() { /* navigate away */ }
    func onConnectionLost() { /* show reconnecting UI */ }
    func onConnectionRestored() { /* hide reconnecting UI */ }
    func onConnectionClosed() { /* navigate away */ }
}

// Register after joinSession succeeds
CallSession.shared.addSessionStatusListener(coordinator)

2. ParticipantEventListener

class ParticipantHandler: NSObject, ParticipantEventListener {
    func onParticipantJoined(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantLeft(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantListChanged(participants: [Participant]) {}
    func onParticipantAudioMuted(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantAudioUnmuted(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantVideoPaused(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantVideoResumed(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantHandRaised(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantHandLowered(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantStartedScreenShare(participant: Participant) {}
    func onParticipantStoppedScreenShare(participant: Participant) {}
     (: ) {}
     (: ) {}
     (: ) {}
}

.shared.addParticipantEventListener(handler)

3. MediaEventsListener

class MediaHandler: NSObject, MediaEventsListener {
    func onAudioMuted() {}
    func onAudioUnMuted() {}
    func onVideoPaused() {}
    func onVideoResumed() {}
    func onRecordingStarted() {}
    func onRecordingStopped() {}
    func onAudioModeChanged(audioMode: AudioMode) {}
    func onCameraFacingChanged(cameraFacing: CameraFacing) {}
}

CallSession.shared.addMediaEventsListener(handler)

4. ButtonClickListener

class ButtonHandler: NSObject, ButtonClickListener {
    func onLeaveSessionButtonClicked() {}
    func onToggleAudioButtonClicked() {}
    func onToggleVideoButtonClicked() {}
    func onSwitchCameraButtonClicked() {}
    func onRaiseHandButtonClicked() {}
    func onShareInviteButtonClicked() {}
    func onChangeLayoutButtonClicked() {}
    func onParticipantListButtonClicked() {}
    func onChatButtonClicked() {}
    func onRecordingToggleButtonClicked() {}
}

CallSession.shared.addButtonClickListener(handler)

5. LayoutListener

@objc public protocol LayoutListener {
    @objc optional func onCallLayoutChanged(layoutType: LayoutType)
    @objc optional func onParticipantListVisible()
    @objc optional func onParticipantListHidden()
    @objc optional func onPictureInPictureLayoutEnabled()
    @objc optional func onPictureInPictureLayoutDisabled()
}

// Registration: CallSession.shared.addLayoutListener(handler)

Gotchas

• Register listeners after joinSession() succeeds (in the onSuccess closure)
• Use DispatchQueue.main.async for UI updates inside listener callbacks
• A single object can conform to multiple listener protocols
• Button click events fire before the SDK's default action
• Participant has: uid, name, avatar, totalAudioMinutes, totalVideoMinutes, totalDurationInMinutes, deviceID, isJoined, joinedAt, mid, state, leftAt
• V5 SDK does NOT auto-disconnect when remote user leaves — use ParticipantEventListener.onParticipantLeft to track participant count and leave the session when it drops to zero (for 1-on-1 calls). For ringing calls, also use CometChatCallDelegate.onCallEndedMessageReceived from the Chat SDK as the primary signal.
