These visual indications (referred to herein as "Chat Markers") are synced between all of the sender's
|
||||
and recipient's resources automatically, so the state of a chat is always consistent.
|
||||
If one or more of the resources is not connected, it can fetch Chat Markers from the Message Archive upon reconnecting.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>&xep0184; currently provides delivery receipts on a per message basis,
|
||||
but it does not provide any mechanism for the user to indicate that they have read or acknowledged the message.
|
||||
As delivery receipts are sent on a per message basis it would require multiple messages to "sync up" up delivery receipts between resources.</p>
|
||||
<p>Moreover by using &xep0085; you could infer that a message has been read by the recipient, if they become active at any point after the message has been delivered, but again it would require multiple messages to "sync up" chat states between resources.</p>
|
||||
<p>This XEP outlines an efficient message based protocol to provide this functionally using Chat Markers.</p>
|
||||
<p class='box'><em>Note: Chat Markers do not mark each individual message, nor do they assume a reliable transport. This means that Chat Markers can only provide a heuristic solution, but this is often satisfactory for the majority of use cases.</em></p>

<section1 topic='Terminology' anchor='terms'>
|

<p>The term "active chat" refers to a chat that a user is currently active in. See &xep0085;.</p>
|
||||
<p>The term "system notification" refers to a notification (typically a preview) that is displayed separately to a Chat.</p>
|
||||
<p>The term "read" in the context of iMessage, Google Hangouts and Blackberry Messenger, directly maps to the displayed element in the Chat Marker namespace.</p>
|
||||
<p>The term "markable message" refers to the stanza for which the original sender would like to receive a Chat Marker.</p>
|

<p>The term "Chat Marker" refers to the stanza by which the recipient replies to a "markable message" with a marker.</p>

<p>There are three allowable elements in this namespace (in order of significance):</p>
|

<ul>
|

<li>received -- the message has been received by a client.</li>
|

<li>displayed -- the message has been displayed to a user in a active chat and not in a system notification.</li>

<li>acknowledged -- the message has been acknowledged by some user interaction e.g. pressing an acknowledgement button.</li>
|

</ul>
|
||||
|

<p>The Chat Marker MUST have an 'id' which is the 'id' of the message being marked.</p>
|
||||
<p>The Chat Marker MUST have a 'thread' if the message has been received, displayed or acknowledged in the context of a thread.</p>
|
||||
<p>A Chat Marker Indicates that all messages up to and including that message 'id' have been marked. If a thread is supplied, a Chat Marker is only valid in the context of that thread.</p>
