Subscribe is not listening to remote changes even when policy is set to OfflineFirstGetPolicy.awaitRemote about brick

[tshedor]

Hey @rutaba1 is your backend GraphQL operation a subscribe operation or a get operation?

If you're calling a get operation, then subscribe will only add a new event to the stream when local data satisfying the subscribe query is changed in the SQLite db.

@tshedor It is a subscribe operation and I'm even overriding the subscribe function in my GraphqlQueryOperationTransformer but still no luck.

 @override
  GraphqlOperation? get subscribe => const GraphqlOperation(
        document: r'''
      subscription Subscription{
        todo_mutated {
         key
	 event 
         data {
            title
            id
          }
        }
      }''',
      );

I'm getting an error in console now with no realtime behaviour

[ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(41)] Unhandled Exception: type 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'String' in type cast
E/flutter (19394): #0      _$TodoFromGraphql (package:brick_graphql_test/brick/adapters/todo_adapter.g.dart:8:30)
E/flutter (19394): #1      TodoAdapter.fromGraphql (package:brick_graphql_test/brick/adapters/todo_adapter.g.dart:95:13)
E/flutter (19394): #2      GraphqlProvider.subscribe (package:brick_graphql/src/graphql_provider.dart:131:27) 

I'm printing the values from $TodoFromGraphql function in generated adapter and I'm getting this:
MAP______{id: 86, title: Test}
MAP_______{id: 87, title: Fielder}
MAP_______{todo_mutated: null}

Here 1st and 2nd are valid but 3rd is not

@rutaba1 can you please provide your Todo model? When you say "printing the values" does that mean you're doing print(data)?

[rutaba1]

@tshedor Yeah,here is my model

@ConnectOfflineFirstWithGraphql(
    graphqlConfig: GraphqlSerializable(
  queryOperationTransformer: TodoQueryOperationTransformer.new,
))
class Todo extends OfflineFirstWithGraphqlModel {
  @Sqlite(unique: true)
  final String id;

  final String title;

  Todo({
    required this.id,
    required this.title,
  });
}

and in todo_adapter.g.dart I am printing the value here.

Future<Todo> _$TodoFromGraphql(Map<String, dynamic> data,
    {required GraphqlProvider provider,
    OfflineFirstWithGraphqlRepository? repository}) async {
  print('MAP_______${data}');
  return Todo(id: data['id'] as String, title: data['title'] as String);
}

[tshedor]

@rutaba1 ah, I see. Brick expects the fields you list within the operation to map as top-level properties for the Dart instance fields. For example, the expected Dart model would be

@ConnectOfflineFirstWithGraphql(
    graphqlConfig: GraphqlSerializable(
  queryOperationTransformer: TodoQueryOperationTransformer.new,
))
class Todo extends OfflineFirstWithGraphqlModel {
  final String key;

  final String event;

  final Map<String, dynamic> data;

  Todo({
    required this.key,
    required this.event,
    required this.data,
  });
}

If you want to use the nested properties of data as instance fields in Dart, you'll need to do some custom remapping:

@ConnectOfflineFirstWithGraphql(
    graphqlConfig: GraphqlSerializable(
  queryOperationTransformer: TodoQueryOperationTransformer.new,
))
class Todo extends OfflineFirstWithGraphqlModel {
  @Sqlite(unique: true)
  @Graphql(fromGenerator: "(data['data'] as Map)['id'] as String")
  final String id;

  @Graphql(fromGenerator: "(data['data'] as Map)['title'] as String")
  final String title;

  Todo({
    required this.id,
    required this.title,
  });
}
