apollo-link-state State link and subscriptions?

Hey, any chance this link will work with subscriptions? Current use case: I would like to make a subscription that will receive the currently discovered bluetooth device... something like:

subscription discoveredDevice {
  bluetoothDevice @client {
    name
  }
}

then I would publish the device via pubSub from a local bluetooth manager to that client subscription.

Any plans for something like that in the future?

I asked the same thing yesterday and found out that subscriptions were not necessary for my case: https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-link-state/issues/137

@blissi thanks for the tip, didn't thought of that... and it works very well.

So this issue can be closed

You're welcome. Just one question: Do you also experience the same issue as I do => https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-link-state/issues/139 ?

Hey @blissi! Subscriptions are not supported yet, but we're looking to implement them soon. Right now, most browser / React Native device APIs allow you to register a callback to an event listener where you can trigger a mutation. This should cover most use cases for now until we add support for subscriptions.
