## 6. Use cases

### 6.1. Exchanging messages

1. Sending message:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "to": ["@user2@cadmium.org"],
        "payload": {
            "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message:types:general",
            "content": {
                "text": "hello world",
            }
        }
    }
    ```

    **Successful response**:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "from": "cadmium.org",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {
            "messageID": "3b5135a5-aff5-4396-a629-a254f383e82f",
            "originServerTimestamp": 1599327584
        }
    }
    ```

    **Error response**:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "from": "cadmium.org",
        "ok": false,
        "payload": {
            "errID": "urn:cadmium:chats:private:banned",
            "errText": "The user banned you"
        }
    }
    ```

2. Receiving message on other side:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "from": "@user1@cadmium.im",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {
            "messageID": "3b5135a5-aff5-4396-a629-a254f383e82f",
            "originServerTimestamp": 1599327584,
            "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message:types:general",
            "content": {
                "text": "hello world",
            }
        }
    }
    ```

### 6.2. Exchanging media

1. Upload the media to Content Service (explanation out of scope of this document)
2. Send message containing the metadata of uploaded media:

   ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "to": ["@user2@cadmium.im"],
        "payload": {
            "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message-types:general",
            "content": {
                "text": "",
                "media": [
                    {
                        "id": "4a771ac1-f0b2-4a4a-9700-f2a26fa2bb67@content.cadmium.im"
                    }
                ]
            }
            
        }
    }
   ```

   **Response**:

   ```json
   {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "from": "cadmium.im",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {
            "messageID": "7a1b9a72-1677-4476-9b22-ef7fdbcff52e",
            "originServerTimestamp": 1599329232
        }
    }
   ```

   **Note**: The Cadmium server will validate media ID which was provided by client. If it doesn't exist or invalid, server will respond with corresponding error.

3. Receive message with media on other side:

   ```json
   {
        "id": "defg",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message",
        "from": "@user1@cadmium.im",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {
            "messageID": "7a1b9a72-1677-4476-9b22-ef7fdbcff52e",
            "originServerTimestamp": 1599329232,
            "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:message:types:general",
            "content": {
                "text": "",
                "media": [
                    {
                        "id": "4a771ac1-f0b2-4a4a-9700-f2a26fa2bb67@content.cadmium.im",
                        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:media:photo",
                        "attrs": {
                            "width": 512,
                            "height": 512 
                        },
                        "size": 96413, // 96kb
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    }
   ```

### 6.3. Read messages

1. Read message

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:read",
        "to": ["@user1@cadmium.org"],
        "payload": {
            "messageID": "7a1b9a72-1677-4476-9b22-ef7fdbcff52e",
        }
    }
    ```

    Response:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:read",
        "from": "cadmium.im",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {}
    }
    ```

2. Receive notification about message reading on other side:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "defg",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:read",
        "from": "@user2@cadmium.im",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {
            "messageID": "7a1b9a72-1677-4476-9b22-ef7fdbcff52e"
        }
    }
    ```

### 6.4. Typing message

1. Typing message

    ```json
    {
        "id": "abcd",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:typing",
        "to": ["@user1@cadmium.org"],
        "payload": {}
    }
    ```

2. Receive notification about typing message on other side:

    ```json
    {
        "id": "defg",
        "type": "urn:cadmium:chats:typing",
        "from": "@user2@cadmium.im",
        "ok": true,
        "payload": {}
    }
    ```

## 7. Business Rules

### 7.1. Typing message notification

- Client sends typing notification message every second when he is typing. If there is no notifications about typing more than one second then consider that user is stopped the typing.

### 7.2. Message/Media ID
  
- This is typically Federated Entity ID of message/media (as described and reserved in core specs) which was stored in server's database/content service storage.

## 8. JSON Schema

### Send message (`urn:cadmium:chats:message`)

```typescript
