Get number of messages in a channel

[florian-do]

Hello,

I'm currently implementing get stream chat on android and I need to show a specific UI if there is 0 messages, 1 messages or more so I'm looking to get the current numbers of messages in a channel.
My fellow iOS developers can override a function numberOfMessages in the ChatChannelVC
but after some research I can't find a way to get messages count from a channel, I've found 0 occurrences of messages count or some similar words on the documentation

I've been looking through the multiples UI components that the library offer but none of them was offering the count messages
I know the question has already been asked but the discussion has no answers so I'm giving a chance

Thanks ! 😊

Edit : you can use https://getstream.io/chat/docs/sdk/android/client/guides/offline-support/#state to get the channel state and then you can listen to the StateFlow<List<Message>>
