QuickBlox Chat not logging in

I'm working on swift and quickblox and I'm trying to have chatting occur between users. The user authentication and sign in is working its just that the chat isn't Logging in for some reason Code in question:

                QBRequest.createSessionWithExtendedParameters(parameters, successBlock: { (response : QBResponse! ,session : QBASession!) -> Void in

                var currentUser = QBUUser()
                currentUser.ID = session.userID
                currentUser.password = userPassword as String
                QBChat().addDelegate(self)
                QBChat().loginWithUser(currentUser)



                let appDelegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate
                appDelegate.initiateLocationServicesUpdates()

                self.boxView.removeFromSuperview()

                self.performSegueWithIdentifier("alreadySignedInSegue", sender: self)


                }, errorBlock: { (response : QBResponse!) -> Void in
                    self.boxView.removeFromSuperview()
                    NSLog("error: %@", response.error);
                    self.view.userInteractionEnabled = true
                    var alert : UIAlertController = UIAlertController()
                    let action : UIAlertAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Default, handler: nil)
                    if let error = response.error.reasons{
                        if  response.error.reasons.description.rangeOfString("Unauthorized") != nil{
                            alert = UIAlertController(title: "Oops", message: "Wrong Username/Password Combination", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)
                            alert.addAction(action)
                            self.presentViewController(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)
                        }
                    }
                    else{
                        alert = UIAlertController(title: "Oops", message: "Something Went Wrong, Its Our Fault!", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)
                        alert.addAction(action)
                        self.presentViewController(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)
                    }
            })

the segue found in the success block works but the value of QBChat().isLoggedIn() is always false and if I try to send a message to a user id via the

QBChat().sendMessage(message: QBChatMessage!)

function I end up getting a "Must me logged in to chat to be able to send" message . It must be a small problem that's due to me overlooking something.

edit: just so you know this is my first time working with quickblox, so please be precise about what I'm doing wrong

Solution

  • You should use a shared instance of QBChat for working with chat.

    QBChat.instance().addDelegate(self)
QBChat.instance().loginWithUser(currentUser)

    Also check 

    setAutoCreateSessionEnabled

    method in QBConnection. You can forget about session management.
