Hey, I want to get the response from a server action into another client component, is there a way to subscribe to this server action, or would I need to set some context and update the context whenever the form returnes a different state?

This is what I'd like to do:

Submit the form here:

  const t = useTranslations('cart');
  const [state, action] = useFormState(validateCart, {
    message: '',
  });

  return (
    <form action={action}>
      <Button
        className="w-full"
        type="submit"
      >
        {t('next_cart_summary_validate_order')}
      </Button>
    </form>
  );
}

Retrieve the data of the not valid cart here:


export default function CartModified() {
  const [state] = useFormState(validateCart, {
    message: '',
  });

  useEffect(() => {
    console.log('CartModified useEffect', state);
  }, [state]);

  return (
    <div className="flex flex-col">
      <Text>Cart modifications:</Text>
      {state?.message}
    </div>
  );
}

Is this possible or am I thinking too far out of the box?
