🦿 Lucian Marin I'm thinking about adding direct, private, one to one messaging to Sublevel. I need to find the best way to do it. Database models are tricky, they can turn everything into a mess or the other way around. Basically I need to generate a conversation ID to simplify things and I have no idea how.

Mark Dain UUID? Depends what you're requirements are for the conversation ID? An auto incrementing number often works fine

Martijn Create a random unique ID per conversation, bind every message to a specific conversation ID, let people either have access to the ID or not (this could be 2 people for one-on-one, or more for groups), and simply show messages in chronological order whenever someone requests a conversation?

🦿 Lucian Marin I have a working version without a conversation ID. Now I have to list the conversations and make sure notifications work properly.
