WalkthroughThe room messaging hook now sends messages directly through the request helper. It handles logging, success updates, failures, and action reset. The obsolete service and its tests were removed. Hook tests cover failure logging and missing-message behavior. ChangesRoom message sending
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Change: Refactor Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Room message sending retains its request, success, failure logging, and immediate reset behavior. The remaining risk is limited to the asynchronous implementation style, with no demonstrated user-facing regression. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Timestamp: 2026-04-30T17:07:51.020Z
Learning: In this Rocket.Chat React Native codebase, the ESLint rule `no-void: error` is enforced. When you see a promise returned from an async call that is not awaited (a “floating promise”), do not silence it with the `void somePromise()` pattern. Instead, handle the promise explicitly by attaching `.catch(...)` (or otherwise awaiting/handling the error) so unhandled-rejection risks are addressed in a way that satisfies the existing ESLint configuration.

Proposed changes
RoomView's send path was split across two files:
useRoomMessagingowned thesendMessageclosure, but that closure only forwarded toservices/sendRoomMessage, a helper with a single caller. Reading "what happens when the user sends a message" meant jumping files, and the helper carried its own test suite duplicating what the hook suite already covered.This inlines the helper body into the existing
sendMessage(message?, tshow?)closure and deletes the helper and its test suite. The transport import is aliasedsendMessageRequestso the returned closure keeps the namesendMessage; RoomView call sites are untouched. No memoization was added.Behavior is unchanged, and ordering is preserved: return early on an undefined message, log
ROOM_SEND_MESSAGE, call the transport with (rid, message, tmid, current user, tshow), clear Last Seen and push the positive review event on success, pass the error tologon rejection, and callresetAction()right after the chain is attached rather than awaiting it.Two commits, in this order so the diff is verifiable:
test:adds the coverage the helper suite held that the hook suite did not, passing against the old code.refactor:moves the body and deletes the helper, with the suite from (1) green and unedited.Issue(s)
https://rocketchat.atlassian.net/browse/NATIVE-34
How to test or reproduce
Open a room, send a message, and send one in a thread. The message is sent, the composer resets immediately, the unread divider clears and any pending quote is dropped, exactly as before.

Further comments
Stacked on #7482 and targets its branch, so it should merge after it. If #7482 merges first, GitHub retargets this to
develop.The hook suite is now the single description of the send contract. It gained a case for an undefined message being a silent no-op (no transport call, no
logEvent, Message Action State untouched) and an assertion thatlogreceives the rejection error. Therid as stringcast was carried over unchanged rather than tightened here.Summary by CodeRabbit
