How to set attributes to message when Sending.

[Kabangi]

@bradbumbalough Thank you for providing this awesome library, It has so far saved me a lots of time developing.

So far I have managed to integrate it to my codebase and am able to send messages between clients.

One thing though that is not clear is how do I go about setting attributes to a message when sending?

Thanks.

@Kabangi thanks for checking out the project! So I did a quick look at the code and I think it would be possible to implement... basically we're only using the Message constructor from a string body to create a Message. What we would need is to expose the createMessage call and directly assign the attributes through the React converter so that it will create an instance of the Message object.

Feel free to take a shot at it and open a PR, otherwise I'll try to add it in when I get a chance. Currently I'm behind on getting the programable-chat branch finished so it can be released to mirror the new Twilio Chat SDK.

Closing for now, added to the new repo to be handled.

@bradbumbalough I think for now we can survive with updating the attributes after construction because this will deprecated anyway. I will be happy though to send a few PRs on the new wrapper. Will check it out and see if I can get the flow then do the necessary.

@Kabangi actually @svlaev submitted a PR to do this and I have moved it over to the new repo (ccm-innovation/react-native-twilio-chat#7).
