Definition
----------
.. phpmethod:: MongoDB\\with_transaction()
Execute a callback within a transaction using the given client session
.. code-block:: php
function with_transaction(MongoDB\Driver\Session $session, callable $callback, array $transactionOptions = []): void
This method has the following parameters:
.. include:: /includes/apiargs/function-with_transaction-param.rst
Behavior
--------
This function is responsible for starting a transaction, invoking a callback,
and committing a transaction. It also applies logic to retry this process after
certain errors within a preset time limit. The callback is expected to execute
one or more operations within the transactionby passing the callback's
:php:`MongoDB\\Driver\\Session <mongodb-driver-session>` argument as an option to
those operations; however, that is not enforced.
.. note::
Applications are strongly encouraged to use an
`idempotent <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idempotence>`_ callback, since it
may be invoked multiple times if retryable errors are encountered during
either callback execution or committing.
Any exception thrown during execution of the callback will be caught and
evaluated. If an exception has a ``TransientTransactionError`` error label, the
transaction will be aborted, restarted, and the callback will be invoked again.
For any other exception, the transaction will be aborted and the exception
re-thrown to propagate the error to the caller of ``with_transaction()``.
Following successful execution of the callback, the transaction will be
committed. If an exception with an UnknownTransactionCommitResult error label is
encountered, the commit will be retried. If an exception with a
``TransientTransactionError`` error label is encountered, the transaction will
be restarted and control will return to invoking the callback. Any other
exception will be re-thrown to propagate the error to the caller of
``with_transaction()``.
When an error occurs during callback execution or committing, the process is
only retried if fewer than 120 seconds have elapsed since ``with_transaction()``
was first called. This time limit is not configurable. After this time, any
exception that would normally result in a retry attempt will instead be
re-thrown.
