description: "User message rendering component with edit and branch navigation"
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
`CopilotChatUserMessage` is the default component used by [CopilotChatMessageView](/reference/copilot-chat-message-view) to render user messages. It handles message display, editing functionality, and branch navigation for conversation history.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is CopilotChatUserMessage?
|
||||
|
||||
The CopilotChatUserMessage component:
|
||||
|
||||
- Renders user messages in a styled bubble
|
||||
- Provides a toolbar with copy and edit buttons
|
||||
- Supports message editing functionality
|
||||
- Handles branch navigation for conversation forks
|
||||
- Built on the [slot system](/reference/slot-system) for deep customization
|
||||
|
||||
## Component Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
CopilotChatUserMessage provides slots for customizing each part of the message:
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||
graph LR
|
||||
UM[CopilotChatUserMessage] --> messageRenderer
|
||||
UM --> toolbar
|
||||
UM --> copyButton
|
||||
UM --> editButton
|
||||
UM --> branchNavigation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Slot Descriptions
|
||||
|
||||
| Slot | Description |
|
||||
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `messageRenderer` | Renders the message text content |
|
||||
| `toolbar` | Container for action buttons (appears on hover) |
|
||||
| `copyButton` | Button to copy message content |
|
||||
| `editButton` | Button to edit the message |
|
||||
| `branchNavigation` | Navigation controls for conversation branches |
|
||||
|
||||
## Basic Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Customize user messages through the `messageView.userMessage` slot on [CopilotChat](/reference/copilot-chat):
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
className: "bg-blue-500 text-white rounded-2xl",
|
||||
onEditMessage: ({ message }) => handleEdit(message),
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Callbacks
|
||||
|
||||
CopilotChatUserMessage provides callbacks for user interactions:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
onEditMessage: ({ message }) => {
|
||||
// Open edit modal or inline editor
|
||||
setEditingMessage(message);
|
||||
},
|
||||
onSwitchToBranch: ({ message, branchIndex, numberOfBranches }) => {
|
||||
// Switch to a different conversation branch
|
||||
switchToBranch(message.id, branchIndex);
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Callback Props
|
||||
|
||||
| Callback | Signature | Description |
|
||||
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `onEditMessage` | `({ message }) => void` | Called when user clicks the edit button |
|
||||
| `onSwitchToBranch` | `({ message, branchIndex, numberOfBranches }) => void` | Called when user navigates between branches |
|
||||
|
||||
## Slot Customization
|
||||
|
||||
CopilotChatUserMessage uses the [slot system](/reference/slot-system). Each slot accepts four types of values:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Tailwind class string** - Add or override CSS classes
|
||||
2. **Props object** - Pass additional props to the default component
|
||||
3. **Custom component** - Replace the component entirely
|
||||
4. **Nested sub-slots** - Drill down to customize child components
|
||||
|
||||
### Message Renderer Customization
|
||||
|
||||
Style the message bubble:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
messageRenderer:
|
||||
"bg-gradient-to-r from-blue-500 to-purple-500 text-white",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Toolbar Customization
|
||||
|
||||
The toolbar appears on hover and contains action buttons:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
toolbar: "bg-gray-50 rounded-lg p-1",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Individual Button Customization
|
||||
|
||||
Customize specific toolbar buttons:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
copyButton: "text-gray-500 hover:text-gray-700",
|
||||
editButton: "text-blue-500 hover:text-blue-700",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Hiding Buttons
|
||||
|
||||
Hide buttons by returning null:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
editButton: () => null,
|
||||
branchNavigation: () => null,
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: The `editButton` only shows when `onEditMessage` callback is provided.
|
||||
|
||||
### Branch Navigation Customization
|
||||
|
||||
Customize the branch navigation controls:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
branchNavigation: "bg-gray-100 rounded-lg px-2",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Branch navigation only appears when there are multiple branches (conversation forks) available.
|
||||
|
||||
## Replacing the Component
|
||||
|
||||
To completely replace the user message component:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
import { CopilotChatUserMessage } from "@copilotkit/react-core";
|
||||
|
||||
function CustomUserMessage({ message, ...props }) {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<div className="flex gap-3 items-start justify-end">
|
||||
<div className="flex-1">
|
||||
<CopilotChatUserMessage
|
||||
message={message}
|
||||
className="bg-blue-600 text-white"
|
||||
{...props}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<Avatar src="/user-avatar.png" />
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: CustomUserMessage,
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Using the Render Function
|
||||
|
||||
For full layout control, use the children render function:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
function CustomUserMessage(props) {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<CopilotChatUserMessage {...props}>
|
||||
{({ messageRenderer, toolbar, message }) => (
|
||||
<div className="flex flex-col items-end gap-1">
|
||||
<div className="flex items-center gap-2">
|
||||
<span className="text-xs text-gray-400">You</span>
|
||||
<span className="text-xs text-gray-400">
|
||||
{new Date(message.createdAt).toLocaleTimeString()}
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
{messageRenderer}
|
||||
{toolbar}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
)}
|
||||
</CopilotChatUserMessage>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: CustomUserMessage,
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The render function receives:
|
||||
|
||||
| Property | Type | Description |
|
||||
| ------------------ | -------------- | ---------------------------- |
|
||||
| `messageRenderer` | `ReactElement` | The rendered message content |
|
||||
| `toolbar` | `ReactElement` | The action buttons toolbar |
|
||||
| `copyButton` | `ReactElement` | Copy button |
|
||||
| `editButton` | `ReactElement` | Edit button |
|
||||
| `branchNavigation` | `ReactElement` | Branch navigation controls |
|
||||
| `message` | `UserMessage` | The message data |
|
||||
| `branchIndex` | `number` | Current branch index |
|
||||
| `numberOfBranches` | `number` | Total number of branches |
|
||||
|
||||
## Branch Navigation
|
||||
|
||||
When users edit messages and regenerate responses, CopilotKit creates conversation branches. The branch navigation allows users to switch between these alternative conversation paths:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
onSwitchToBranch: ({ message, branchIndex, numberOfBranches }) => {
|
||||
console.log(
|
||||
`Switching to branch ${branchIndex + 1} of ${numberOfBranches}`,
|
||||
);
|
||||
// Your branch switching logic
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The branch navigation shows:
|
||||
|
||||
- Previous/Next arrows to navigate between branches
|
||||
- Current branch indicator (e.g., "2/3")
|
||||
|
||||
## Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### Chat Bubble Style
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
className: "items-end",
|
||||
messageRenderer:
|
||||
"bg-blue-600 text-white rounded-2xl px-4 py-2 max-w-[75%]",
|
||||
toolbar: "opacity-0 group-hover:opacity-100 transition-opacity",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### With Edit Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
function ChatWithEdit() {
|
||||
const [editingMessage, setEditingMessage] = useState(null);
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<>
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
onEditMessage: ({ message }) => setEditingMessage(message),
|
||||
editButton: "text-blue-500 hover:text-blue-700",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
|
||||
{editingMessage && (
|
||||
<EditMessageModal
|
||||
message={editingMessage}
|
||||
onClose={() => setEditingMessage(null)}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
)}
|
||||
</>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Minimal Style
|
||||
|
||||
Hide all toolbar elements for a clean look:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
toolbar: () => null,
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Custom Message with Avatar
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
function UserMessageWithAvatar(props) {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<CopilotChatUserMessage {...props}>
|
||||
{({ messageRenderer, toolbar }) => (
|
||||
<div className="flex items-start gap-3 justify-end">
|
||||
<div className="flex flex-col items-end">
|
||||
{messageRenderer}
|
||||
{toolbar}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<img
|
||||
src="/user-avatar.png"
|
||||
alt="You"
|
||||
className="w-8 h-8 rounded-full"
|
||||
/>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
)}
|
||||
</CopilotChatUserMessage>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: UserMessageWithAvatar,
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Styled for Dark Mode
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
<CopilotChat
|
||||
messageView={{
|
||||
userMessage: {
|
||||
messageRenderer: "bg-blue-600 text-white dark:bg-blue-500",
|
||||
toolbar: "text-gray-400 dark:text-gray-500",
|
||||
copyButton: "hover:text-white dark:hover:text-gray-300",
|
||||
editButton: "hover:text-white dark:hover:text-gray-300",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
```
