Replace subscriptions-transport-ws with graphql-ws
The subscriptions-transport-ws library is not being actively maintained. It is recommended that you use the graphql-ws library instead. For details read the GraphQL over WebSockets announcement.
Reference: https://github.com/apollographql/subscriptions-transport-ws#graphql-ws
New GraphQL WebSocket library: https://github.com/enisdenjo/graphql-ws
This would be a breaking change, but I think it is a good idea. What do you think, @jesse-savary?
I think this is a good idea; I'd like to review existing dependencies and replace things as needed.
would it be possible to allow use of other libs instead? there's a big push to leave websockets in favour of other means of communication (mercure for example).
I haven't seen this happening. Where is this push coming from? Who is using mercure in the context of graphql subscriptions? For now I see graphql-ws as a safe option.
api-platform for one. I'm not saying that as part of mst-gql you would integrate mercure, just to create an option to use other libs.
Oh, you mean to make the "backend" for subscriptions selectable? We vould then keep subscriptions-transport-ws for backward compatibility and add new backends like graphql-ws and mercure.
yes, i don't expect this to be in the scope of the 'mst-gql' project but it would allow us to add custom implementations and then just call back to the root with the update to follow the same set of processes.
