Absinthe subscriptions for private messaging between 2 users

Questions / Help

I am building a web app using elixir phoenix absinthe graphql for the backend. I have a messaging module which requires absinthe subscriptions. For some reason I am not able to get it to work. Here is what I have for the absinthe subscription.

subscription do
  field :new_message, :message do
      arg(:listing_id, non_null(:id))
      arg(:receiver_id, non_null(:id))

      trigger(
        :create_message,
        topic: fn
          %Message{} = message -> ["new_message:#{message.receiver.id}:#{message.listing.id}"]
          _ -> []
        end
      )

      config(fn args, _info ->
        {:ok, topic: "new_message:#{args.receiver_id}:#{args.listing_id}"}
      end)
    end
end

for this demo, the message model is simple. it has the following fields

 schema "messages" do
    field :deleted_at, :naive_datetime
    field :read_at, :naive_datetime
    field :body, :string

    # belongs_to :contact, Contact, type: :binary_id
    belongs_to :sender, User, foreign_key: :sender_id, type: :binary_id
    belongs_to :receiver, User, foreign_key: :receiver_id, type: :binary_id
    belongs_to :listing, Listing, foreign_key: :listing_id, type: :binary_id

    timestamps(type: :utc_datetime)
  end

The goal is to do the following.

  1. When a user sends a message, he should see the message instantly.
  2. It should also show up in the receivers message window immediately.

I am not able to get the above working… Am I doing anything wrong? How can I make this subscription work?
