You can use the official TextInputLayout component.

You can customize the icon to use using the app:endIconMode="custom" attribute and specifying the drawable with app:endIconDrawable.

Something like:

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
    android:id="@+id/custom_end_icon"
    style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:hint="@string/hint_text"
    app:endIconMode="custom"
    app:endIconDrawable="@drawable/custom_icon"
    app:endIconContentDescription="@string/custom_content_desc">

  <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

You can set the TextInputLayout#setEndIconOnClickListener method to handle the click.

TextInputLayout textInputLayout = findViewById(R.id.custom_end_icon);
textInputLayout.setEndIconOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
          @Override public void onClick(View view) {
            // do something.
          }
        });

Try something like this

<LinearLayout 
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="1>

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/editText"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:hint="Type a message"
    android:inputType="text"
    android:text="" />

<ImageButton
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:background="@drawable/yourImage"/>
</LinearLayout>
