Walkthrough

The Client class is updated to support MongoDB logical sessions and transactions. Four new command constants and corresponding public methods are introduced for starting sessions, committing and aborting transactions, and ending sessions. These methods interact with the MongoDB server using the existing query mechanism and handle session lifecycle management.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
src/Client.php Added session and transaction support: new command constants and public methods for session control.

Poem

A session begins with a hop and a leap,
Transactions committed, no secrets to keep.
Abort if you must, then end with a cheer,
Mongo sessions handled—no bugs to fear!
The rabbit approves, with a twitch of its nose,
For code that now gracefully starts and close(s).

807-832: Well-implemented session ID handling with good flexibility.

The method correctly handles multiple input formats and properly transforms them for the MongoDB command. Consider adding validation for empty arrays.

Consider adding a check for empty input:

     public function endSessions(array $lsids, array $options = [])
     {
+        if (empty($lsids)) {
+            return null;
+        }
+        
         // Extract session IDs from the format ['id' => sessionId] and format as objects
         $sessionIds = array_map(function ($lsid) {

740-832: Consider adding unit tests for the new transaction functionality.

The new session and transaction methods should have comprehensive test coverage to ensure reliability.

Would you like me to help generate unit tests for these new methods or open an issue to track this task?

40-43: Constants follow established patterns correctly.

The new command constants are properly defined and align with MongoDB's wire protocol command names.


755-779: Improve error handling for transaction lifecycle management.

The session is ended regardless of whether the commit actually succeeds. If an exception is thrown by the query method, the session will remain open.

Apply this diff to handle errors properly:

     public function commitTransaction(array $lsid, int $txnNumber, bool $autocommit = false)
     {
         $txnNumber =  new \MongoDB\BSON\Int64($txnNumber);

-        $result = $this->query([
-            self::COMMAND_COMMIT_TRANSACTION => 1,
-            'lsid' => $lsid,
-            'txnNumber' => $txnNumber,
-            'autocommit' => $autocommit
-        ], 'admin');
-
-        // End the session after successful commit
-        $this->endSessions([$lsid]);
-
-        return $result;
+        try {
+            $result = $this->query([
+                self::COMMAND_COMMIT_TRANSACTION => 1,
+                'lsid' => $lsid,
+                'txnNumber' => $txnNumber,
+                'autocommit' => $autocommit
+            ], 'admin');
+            
+            // End the session after successful commit
+            $this->endSessions([$lsid]);
+            
+            return $result;
+        } catch (Exception $e) {
+            // Don't end session on failure - let caller decide
+            throw $e;
+        }
     }

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

⚠️ Potential issue

Fix inconsistent documentation and add defensive property checks.

The method documentation states it returns "the session id object" but actually returns the id value. Additionally, the nested property access could fail without proper checks.

Apply this diff to fix the issues:

    /**
-     * Start a new logical session. Returns the session id object..
+     * Start a new logical session. Returns the session ID.
      *
-     * @return object
+     * @return mixed The session ID
      * @throws Exception
      */
-    public function startSession(): object
+    public function startSession(): mixed
     {
         $result = $this->query([
             self::COMMAND_START_SESSION => 1
         ], 'admin');

-        return $result->id->id;
+        if (!property_exists($result, 'id') || !property_exists($result->id, 'id')) {
+            throw new Exception('Invalid session response structure');
+        }
+        
+        return $result->id->id;
     }
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In src/Client.php around lines 740 to 753, the method startSession's docblock
incorrectly states it returns an object while it actually returns the session id
value. Also, the code accesses nested properties without checking if they exist,
which can cause errors. Update the docblock to indicate the method returns a
string (or appropriate type for the session id), and add defensive checks to
ensure $result, $result->id, and $result->id->id exist before returning the id
value, throwing an exception or handling the error if any property is missing.

⚠️ Potential issue

Apply consistent error handling as with commitTransaction.

This method has the same session lifecycle issue - the session is ended even if the abort fails.

Apply similar error handling:

     public function abortTransaction(array $lsid, int $txnNumber, bool $autocommit = false)
     {
         $txnNumber = new \MongoDB\BSON\Int64($txnNumber);

-        $result = $this->query([
-            self::COMMAND_ABORT_TRANSACTION => 1,
-            'lsid' => $lsid,
-            'txnNumber' => $txnNumber,
-            'autocommit' => $autocommit
-        ], 'admin');
-
-        // End the session after successful rollback
-        $this->endSessions([$lsid]);
-
-        return $result;
+        try {
+            $result = $this->query([
+                self::COMMAND_ABORT_TRANSACTION => 1,
+                'lsid' => $lsid,
+                'txnNumber' => $txnNumber,
+                'autocommit' => $autocommit
+            ], 'admin');
+            
+            // End the session after successful rollback
+            $this->endSessions([$lsid]);
+            
+            return $result;
+        } catch (Exception $e) {
+            // Don't end session on failure - let caller decide
+            throw $e;
+        }
     }

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In src/Client.php around lines 781 to 805, the abortTransaction method ends the
session immediately after the query without checking if the abort succeeded,
which can cause session lifecycle issues. Modify the method to first perform the
abort query and check for success, then only call endSessions if the abort was
successful, similar to the error handling pattern used in commitTransaction.
This ensures the session is not ended prematurely on failure.
