@override Stream<Response> request(Request request, [ NextLink? forward ])

A function called when a request reaches this Link

Implementation

@override

    phoenixSubscriptionId =
        pushResponse.response['subscriptionId'] as String?;

    if (phoenixSubscriptionId != null) {

          .map((event) => _parser.parseResponse(
              event.payload!['result'] as Map<String, dynamic>))

  } finally {
