how to create a direct message

[neversuspend]

 const messageBuilder = modify.getCreator().startMessage()
            .setSender(sender)
            .setText(body)
            .setRoom(room);

I can send a message to room

How can I send a message to a user (direct message)

Thanks.

Example code

const user2 = context.getSender();
const user1 = await read.getUserReader().getAppUser() as IUser;
let room = await read
    .getRoomReader()
    .getDirectByUsernames([user1.username, user2.username]);
if (!room) {
    const rid = await modify
        .getCreator()
        .finish(
            modify
                .getCreator()
                .startRoom()
                .setCreator(user1)
                .setType(RoomType.DIRECT_MESSAGE)
                .setMembersToBeAddedByUsernames([user2.username]),
        );
    room = (await read.getRoomReader().getById(rid)) as IRoom;
}
// room is now your direct message room

Closing this issue since not a but.
