The Problem:
In a Prisma transaction involving upserting a product variant along with its associated photos, the code returns an error message indicating that the transaction is already closed. The goal is to ensure successful upsertion of both the product variant and its photos within a single transaction to maintain data integrity. How can this error be resolved or an alternative approach be taken to achieve the desired result?
The Solutions:
Solution 1: Using for…of loops
The idea is to replace the .forEach loops with for…of loops to ensure that the await statements within the loops are awaited properly. This ensures that the transaction waits for all the asynchronous operations/callbacks to finish before it’s closed. Here’s the modified code:
“`js
return ctx.prisma.$transaction(async (tx) => {
for (const variant of input.variants) {
const variantOnDB = await tx.productVariant.upsert({
where: {
id: variant.id,
},
update: {
name: variant.name,
},
create: {
name: variant.name,
productId: product.id,
},
})
if (variant.photos) {
for (const photo of variant.photos) {
if (isBase64(photo.id)) {
const result = await cloudinary.uploader.upload(photo.id)
await tx.productVariant.update({
where: {
id: variantOnDB.id,
},
data: {
name: '',
photos: {
upsert: {
where: {
id: photo.id,
},
create: {
id: photo.id,
order: photo.order,
},
update: {
order: photo.order,
},
},
},
},
})
}
}
}
}
})
Q&A
What is the cause of the error message "Transaction already closed: Could not perform operation." ?
When using .forEach to iterate over an array and perform async operations, it doesn’t wait for each one to complete before moving on.
How to fix the error message "Transaction already closed: Could not perform operation."?
Replace the .forEach loops with for…of loops to ensure that the await
statements within the loops are awaited properly.
