Create an audio message from a file

Create an audio message from a browser File with the WASM SDK.

createSoundMessageByFile() creates a message from a browser audio file and its metadata.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`file`	`File`	Yes	Original audio file from the browser.
`uuid`	`string`	Yes	Unique identifier for the audio resource.
`soundPath`	`string`	Yes	Local filename or application-defined path of the audio file.
`sourceUrl`	`string`	Yes	Audio URL. Pass an empty string when creating from a file; the SDK uploads the audio during sending.
`dataSize`	`number`	Yes	Audio size in bytes.
`duration`	`number`	Yes	Audio duration in seconds.
`soundType`	`string`	No	Audio MIME type.

const { data: message } = await openimsdk.createSoundMessageByFile({
  file,
  uuid: crypto.randomUUID(),
  soundPath: file.name,
  sourceUrl: '',
  dataSize: file.size,
  duration,
  soundType: file.type,
});

Derive the audio size, type, and duration from the actual file. If the browser reports the duration in milliseconds, convert it to seconds before passing it. When the Promise resolves, it returns a pending MessageItem object. Next, use Send a message to enter the SDK's built-in audio upload and delivery pipeline.
