useSocketEvent with callback?

[niekvenlo]

It looks like it would be fairly simple to add callback support to the useSocketEvent hook. The API would then support something like this:

useSocketEvent('name-of-event', (response) => handleResponse(response));

It could be as simple as adding this effect:

useEffect(() => callback(lastMessage), [lastMessage]);

(Probably not wise to add callback to deps, because callback will change on every render)

Is there a good reason not to include this functionality?

useSocketEvent<string>(socket, "eventName", { onMessage });

There is a callback, onMessage
