Send data for event on

STEP 1 : Declare class & extend it with DTO

/// remember to exnted class from DTO for data transmission
/// there we will be transferring Message data over socket 

class Message extends DTO {
  String username;
  String message;

  Message({required this.username, required this.message});

  factory Message.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
    return Message(username: json['username'], message: json['message']);
  }

  @override
  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
    return {"username": username, "message": message};
  }

/// in case you wish to encode data differently
/// then remember to decode data correspondingly
  @override
  String encode() {
    return json.encode(toJson());
  }
}
