note

Before proceeding with this guide, ensure that all attendees join the meeting with the mode set to VIEWER.

Step 1: Start by obtaining all the participants using the useMeeting hook.

import { useMeeting } from "@videosdk.live/react-native-sdk";

function AttendessCount() {
  const { participants } = useMeeting();

  return <></>;
}

Step 2: Subsequently, filter out those who have joined as VIEWER and display the count.

import { useMeeting } from "@videosdk.live/react-native-sdk";
import { useMemo } from "react";
import { Text } from "react-native";

function AttendessCount() {
  const { participants } = useMeeting();

  const attendeesCount = useMemo(() => {
    const attendees = [...participants.values()].filter((participant) => {
      return participant.mode == "VIEWER";
    });
    return attendees.length || 0;
  }, [participants]);

  return (
    <>
      <Text>Number of Attendess: {attendeesCount}</Text>
    </>
  );
}
