Handle mentions with spaces

[mohsinnaqvi]

How do i be able to handle mentions with spaces

Input: @moh Suggestions: "mohsin abbas", "mohsin naqvi", "syed mohsin" after selection it breaks at space.

If I use the displayName and userName prop, Firstly it shows in view which is not cool

All I want is it somehow after selection it shows as one mention including space.

Thanks

That is an expected behavior since I thought it is generally accepted that username can't have spaces, is it not?

Its a great piece of code you have written, very help. thanks. but there are few platform which allow usernames with spaces while tagging like facebook.

Hi @hendraanggrian I think what @mohsinnaqvi is trying to say is like the mention from facebook where in it displays the full name of the user. Would that be possible? Thanks in advance.

I still don't completely understand what the goal is here. But I'll make an attempt: when a hashtag symbol is typed and the adapter pops out, you guys want to search by display name instead of username?

I'm sorry in advance because I don't use Facebook nowadays, I have no idea how they work.

@hendraanggrian yes, can you support me about this issue or suggest me sth to resolve this?

You may create a custom regex to catch mention strings that can have whitespace, and set it using textView.setMentionPattern(String). Unfortunately, I'm not a regex expert and can't help you much.
