Goal

Port of #6668 to develop: expose the id of the message an attachment belongs to to custom FileUploader implementations, so apps uploading to their own CDN can associate the uploaded file with the message before it reaches the Stream API.

Part of AND-1453

Implementation

  • Add FileUploadContext, a read-only, SDK-constructed context (channel type/id, user id, message id). Its constructor is internal so new properties can be added later without breaking implementers.
  • Add FileUploader.sendFile/sendImage overloads receiving the context. They delegate to the existing overloads by default and compile as JVM default methods, so current FileUploader implementations, Kotlin or Java, keep working unchanged. The API diff is purely additive.
  • Thread the message id from UploadAttachmentsWorker through AttachmentUploader and internal ChatClient/ChatApi overloads down to MoshiChatApi, which builds the context and calls the new overloads. Direct (non-message) uploads pass a null message id.

Differences from the v6 version are mechanical: the state-module tests live under stream-chat-android-client here, and the worker's parallel upload path is preserved.

Testing

  • Same coverage as Expose upload context with message id to FileUploader #6668: MoshiChatApiTest (context contents, null message id for plain uploads), AttachmentUploaderTests (file and image forwarding), ChatClientChannelFileUploaderTests (overload forwarding), FileUploaderTest (default delegation contract), FileUploadContextTest, and the worker-to-uploader assertion in UploadAttachmentsIntegrationTests.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • File and image uploads can now be associated with a specific message.
    • Added upload context support for channel, user, and message details.
    • Existing upload methods remain available for compatibility.
    • Attachment uploads now preserve message associations throughout the upload process.
  • Documentation

    • Updated Java and Kotlin uploader examples for the new upload context.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage verifying message ID forwarding and upload context behavior.

Port of the v6 change to develop. Add FileUploadContext, a read-only,
SDK-constructed context handed to new FileUploader.sendFile/sendImage
overloads. For message attachments it carries the id the message will
be sent with, known before the message reaches the Stream API. The new
overloads delegate to the existing ones by default and are compiled as
JVM default methods, so current FileUploader implementations, Kotlin or
Java, keep working unchanged.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

File and image upload APIs now accept optional message identifiers. The identifiers flow through ChatClient, MoshiChatApi, AttachmentUploader, and FileUploader using FileUploadContext. Legacy uploader overloads remain supported.

Changes

Message-aware upload flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Upload context contract
stream-chat-android-client/api/..., stream-chat-android-client/src/main/java/io/getstream/chat/android/client/uploader/*, stream-chat-android-client/src/test/.../uploader/*
Adds FileUploadContext and context-based FileUploader overloads. Tests cover value behavior and legacy delegation.
Client and API upload flow
stream-chat-android-client/src/main/java/io/getstream/chat/android/client/{ChatClient.kt,api/ChatApi.kt,api2/MoshiChatApi.kt}, stream-chat-android-client/src/test/.../{ChatClientChannelFileUploaderTests.kt,api2/MoshiChatApiTest.kt}
Adds nullable messageId parameters. Builds upload contexts and routes callback results through notifyProgressCallback.
Attachment message propagation
stream-chat-android-client/src/main/java/io/getstream/chat/android/client/attachment/..., stream-chat-android-client/src/test/.../attachment/*
Passes message IDs from attachment workers through file and image upload paths.
Uploader implementation examples
stream-chat-android-docs/src/main/{java,kotlin}/.../MyFileUploader.*
Updates Java and Kotlin uploader examples with context-based methods and existing result handling.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f422d

The new upload-context flow may break existing applications that call AttachmentUploader through the previous method signature, including previously compiled apps at runtime. Preserve the old overload or explicitly accept this compatibility risk before merging.

Poem

A rabbit packed the upload stream,
With message tags tucked in the seam.
Files and images hopped along,
Context kept their details strong.
Old paths still danced beside the new.

Retain the previous uploadAttachment overload.

The new messageId parameter changes the public JVM method descriptor. Kotlin default arguments do not preserve the previous descriptor. Previously compiled consumers can fail with NoSuchMethodError, and positional Kotlin calls with a fourth ProgressCallback no longer compile. Keep the previous overload and delegate it with messageId = null.

@coderabbitai Regarding the two findings:

  • Retain the previous uploadAttachment overload: not applying. uploadAttachment is @InternalStreamChatApi, which this repo lists in the binary validator's nonPublicMarkers — it is deliberately outside the compatibility surface, and all of its call sites (the worker and the tests) were updated in the same change. JVM descriptor stability is not a guarantee we extend to internal-annotated API, and keeping a legacy overload would freeze an internal signature that was intentionally reordered for consistency across layers.
  • Document the suppression reason: done in ea9f51f (and mirrored to the v6 PR).

@gpunto, thanks for the clarification and the verification details.

I confirmed that AttachmentUploader.uploadAttachment is marked with @InternalStreamChatApi. The binary validator excludes this marker through apiValidation.nonPublicMarkers in build.gradle.kts. The compatibility finding does not apply.

I also confirmed that commit ea9f51f315 documents why the FileUploader context-aware and legacy overloads must coexist. This addresses the suppression documentation finding.

Learning: In stream-chat-android, APIs annotated with `io.getstream.chat.android.core.internal.InternalStreamChatApi` are excluded from the binary compatibility surface through `apiValidation.nonPublicMarkers` in the root `build.gradle.kts`. Do not require JVM descriptor compatibility for changes to these internal APIs when all repository call sites are updated.
