OptimisticLockBehavior extends AttributeBehavior
in package

OptimisticLockBehavior automatically upgrades a model's lock version using the column name returned by [[\yii\db\BaseActiveRecord::optimisticLock()|optimisticLock()]].

Optimistic locking allows multiple users to access the same record for edits and avoids potential conflicts. In case when a user attempts to save the record upon some staled data (because another user has modified the data), a [[StaleObjectException]] exception will be thrown, and the update or deletion is skipped.

To use this behavior, first enable optimistic lock by following the steps listed in [[\yii\db\BaseActiveRecord::optimisticLock()|optimisticLock()]], remove the column name holding the lock version from the [[\yii\base\Model::rules()|rules()]] method of your ActiveRecord class, then add the following code to it:

use yii\behaviors\OptimisticLockBehavior;

public function behaviors()
{
    return [
        OptimisticLockBehavior::class,
    ];
}

By default, OptimisticLockBehavior will use [[\yii\web\Request::getBodyParam()|getBodyParam()]] to parse the submitted value or set it to 0 on any fail. That means a request not holding the version attribute may achieve a first successful update to entity, but starting from there any further try should fail unless the request is holding the expected version number.

Once attached, internal use of the model class should also fail to save the record if the version number isn't held by [[\yii\web\Request::getBodyParam()|getBodyParam()]]. It may be useful to extend your model class, enable optimistic lock in parent class by overriding [[\yii\db\BaseActiveRecord::optimisticLock()|optimisticLock()]], then attach the behavior to the child class so you can tie the parent model to internal use while linking the child model holding this behavior to the controllers responsible of receiving end user inputs. Alternatively, you can also configure the [[value]] property with a PHP callable to implement a different logic.

OptimisticLockBehavior also provides a method named [[upgrade()]] that increases a model's version by one, that may be useful when you need to mark an entity as stale among connected clients and avoid any change to it until they load it again:

$model->upgrade();

Properties

$attributes

public array<string|int, mixed> $attributes = []

list of attributes that are to be automatically filled with the value specified via [[value]]. The array keys are the ActiveRecord events upon which the attributes are to be updated, and the array values are the corresponding attribute(s) to be updated. You can use a string to represent a single attribute, or an array to represent a list of attributes. For example,

[
    ActiveRecord::EVENT_BEFORE_INSERT => ['attribute1', 'attribute2'],
    ActiveRecord::EVENT_BEFORE_UPDATE => 'attribute2',
]

$preserveNonEmptyValues

public bool $preserveNonEmptyValues = false

whether to preserve non-empty attribute values.

Tags
since
2.0.13

$skipUpdateOnClean

public bool $skipUpdateOnClean = false

whether to skip this behavior when the $owner has not been modified

$value

public mixed $value

In case of null value it will be directly parsed from [[\yii\web\Request::getBodyParam()|getBodyParam()]] or set to 0.

the value that will be assigned to the current attributes. This can be an anonymous function, callable in array format (e.g. [$this, 'methodName']), an [[\yii\db\Expression|Expression]] object representing a DB expression (e.g. new Expression('NOW()')), scalar, string or an arbitrary value. If the former, the return value of the function will be assigned to the attributes. The signature of the function should be as follows,

function ($event)
{
    // return value will be assigned to the attribute
}

$_attachedEvents

private array<string|int, mixed> $_attachedEvents = []

Attached events handlers

Methods

__call()

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

public __call(string $name, array<string|int, mixed> $params) : mixed

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

Parameters
$name : string

the method name

$params : array<string|int, mixed>

method parameters

Tags
throws
UnknownMethodException

when calling unknown method

Return values
mixed

the method return value

__construct()

Constructor.

public __construct([array<string|int, mixed> $config = [] ]) : mixed

The default implementation does two things:

  • Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
  • Call [[init()]].

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

  • the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
  • call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.
Parameters
$config : array<string|int, mixed> = []

name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

__get()

Returns the value of an object property.

public __get(string $name) : mixed

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $value = $object->property;.

Parameters
$name : string

the property name

Tags
throws
UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws
InvalidCallException

if the property is write-only

see
__set()
Return values
mixed

the property value

__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.

public __isset(string $name) : bool

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing isset($object->property).

Note that if the property is not defined, false will be returned.

Parameters
$name : string

the property name or the event name

Tags
see
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php
Return values
bool

whether the named property is set (not null).

__set()

public __set(string $name, mixed $value) : mixed

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $object->property = $value;.

Parameters
$name : string

the property name or the event name

__unset()

Sets an object property to null.

public __unset(string $name) : mixed

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing unset($object->property).

Note that if the property is not defined, this method will do nothing. If the property is read-only, it will throw an exception.
