I am a subscription setup but onNext is not getting triggered I am not sure why since this is my first time implementing subscription and docs was not much help with the issue.
Here are the code implementations:
import {
graphql,
requestSubscription
} from 'react-relay'
import environment from '../network';
const subscription = graphql`
subscription chatCreatedSubscription{
chatCreated{
id
initiate_time
update_time
support_id
category_id
email
name
}
}
`;
function chatCreated(callback) {
const variables = {};
requestSubscription(environment, {
subscription,
variables,
onNext: () => {
console.log("onNext");
callback()
},
updater: () => {
console.log("updater");
}
});
}
module.exports = chatCreated;
and here is my network for the subscription
import { Environment, Network, RecordSource, Store } from "relay-runtime";
import Expo from "expo";
import { SubscriptionClient } from "subscriptions-transport-ws";
import { WebSocketLink } from 'apollo-link-ws';
import { execute } from 'apollo-link';
import accessHelper from "../helper/accessToken";
const networkSubscriptions = async (operation, variables) => {
let token = await accessHelper();
if (token != null || token != undefined) {
const subscriptionClient = new SubscriptionClient("ws://localhost:3000/graphql",
{
reconnect: true,
connectionParams: {
Authorization: token,
},
});
execute(new WebSocketLink(subscriptionClient), {
query: operation.text,
variables,
});
}
}
const network = Network.create(fetchQuery, networkSubscriptions);
const store = new Store(new RecordSource());
const environment = new Environment({
network,
store
});
export default environment;
the subscription is called in a componentDidMount method on a component it executes but the onNext method inside the subscription is never triggered when new information is added to what the subscription is listening to.
so i figured out that my issue was the network js not being setup properly and the version of subscription-transport-ws. i added version 0.8.3 of the package and made the following changes to my network file:
const networkSubscriptions = async (config, variables, cacheConfig, observer) => {
const query = config.text;
let token = await accessHelper();
if (token != null || token != undefined) {
const subscriptionClient = new SubscriptionClient(`ws://${api}/graphql`,
{
reconnect: true,
connectionParams: {
Authorization: token,
},
});
subscriptionClient.subscribe({ query, variables }, (error, result) => {
observer.onNext({ data: result })
})
return {
dispose: subscriptionClient.unsubscribe
};
}
}
i hope this helps you if you get stuck with the same issue as mine.
