Class: MessageText

MessageText(text)

MessageText A String subclass that is used to represent the rich text of a chat message.

The "rich" parts of the text is represented by lit-html TemplateResult objects which are added via the MessageText.addTemplateResult method and saved as metadata.

By default Converse adds TemplateResults to support emojis, hyperlinks, images, map URIs and mentions.

3rd party plugins can listen for the beforeMessageBodyTransformed and/or afterMessageBodyTransformed events and then call addTemplateResult on the MessageText instance in order to add their own rich features.
