Mongoid::Locking

It adds Optimistic Locking to Mongoid::Document objects.

This gem is inspired in the ActiveRecord::Locking module.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add mongoid-locking

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install mongoid-locking

Usage

  • Include Mongoid::Locking module
  class Order
    include Mongoid::Document
    include Mongoid::Locking
  end
  • Handle Mongoid::StaleObjectError when performing updates
  # ...
  def update_order
    Order.update(attributes)
  rescue Mongoid::StaleObjectError => e
    add_error("This order has been changed ...")
  end
end
  • Use with_locking to automatically handle Mongoid::StaleObjectError

By default, with_locking will retry the update 3 times in case of a Mongoid::StaleObjectError.

  def process_with_locking
    Order.with_locking do
      # Ensure the block is idempotent
      # Reload object(s) within the block to get the latest changes
      order.reload
      # Your code here
      # ...
    end
  end

Adjust the max_retries parameter to control the number of retry attempts in case of a Mongoid::StaleObjectError.

  # ...
  def update_order
    order.with_locking(max_retries: 2) do
      order.update(attributes)
    end
  end
end
  • Use with_locking at the instance level to automatically reload the instance on each retry
def process_with_locking
  order.with_locking do
    # The instance is automatically reloaded for each retry
    # Your code here
    # ...
  end
end

The with_locking method at the instance level combines class-level locking with automatic reloading on each retry. This ensures that the instance reflects the latest changes, providing seamless control over optimistic locking.

NOTE: The with_locking method will add a delay between retries to avoid contention. More info.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
