## Promises, async/await and indexedDB
|
||
|
||
Doesn't indexedDB close your transaction if you don't queue more requests from an idb event handler?
|
||
So wouldn't that mean that you can't use promises and async/await when using idb?
|
||
|
||
It used to be like this, and for IE11 on Win7 (not on Windows 10 strangely enough), it still is like this.
|
||
Here we manually flush the promise queue synchronously at the end of an idb event handler.
|
||
|
||
In modern browsers, indexedDB transactions should only be closed after flushing the microtask queue of the event loop,
|
||
which is where promises run.
|
||
|
||
Keep in mind that indexedDB events, just like any other DOM event, are fired as macro tasks.
|
||
Promises queue micro tasks, of which the queue is drained before proceeding to the next macro task.
|
||
This also means that if a transaction is completed, you will only receive the event once you are ready to process the next macro tasks.
|
||
That doesn't prevent any placed request from throwing TransactionInactiveError though.
|
||
|
||
## TransactionInactiveError in Safari
|
||
|
||
Safari doesn't fully follow the rules above, in that if you open a transaction,
|
||
you need to "use" (not sure if this means getting a store or actually placing a request) it straight away,
|
||
without waiting for any *micro*tasks. See comments about Safari at https://github.com/dfahlander/Dexie.js/issues/317#issue-178349994.
|
||
|
||
Another failure mode perceived in Hydrogen on Safari is that when the (readonly) prepareTxn in sync wasn't awaited to be completed before opening and using the syncTxn.
|
||
I haven't found any documentation online about this at all. Awaiting prepareTxn.complete() fixed the issue below. It's strange though the put does not fail.
|
||
|
||
## Diagnose of problem
|
||
|
||
What is happening below is:
|
||
- in the sync loop:
|
||
- we first open a readonly txn on inboundGroupSessions, which we don't use in the example below
|
||
- we then open a readwrite txn on session, ... (does not overlap with first txn)
|
||
- first the first incremental sync on a room (!YxKeAxtNcDZDrGgaMF:matrix.org) it seems to work well
|
||
- on a second incremental sync for that same room, the first get throws TransactionInactiveError for some reason.
|
||
- the put in the second incremental sync somehow did not throw.
|
||
|
||
So it looks like safari doesn't like (some) transactions still being active while a second one is being openened, even with non-overlapping stores.
|
||
For now I haven't awaited every read txn in the app, as this was the only place it fails, but if this pops up again in safari, we might have to do that.
|
||
|
||
Keep in mind that the `txn ... inactive` logs are only logged when the "complete" or "abort" events are processed,
|
||
which happens in a macro task, as opposed to all of our promises, which run in a micro task.
|
||
So the transaction is likely to have closed before it appears in the logs.
