Transaction support for Blobs
=============================

We need a database with a blob supporting storage::

    >>> import ZODB.blob, transaction
    >>> blob_dir = 'blobs'
    >>> blob_storage = create_storage(blob_dir=blob_dir)
    >>> database = ZODB.DB(blob_storage)
    >>> connection1 = database.open()
    >>> root1 = connection1.root()

Putting a Blob into a Connection works like any other Persistent object::

    >>> blob1 = ZODB.blob.Blob()
    >>> blob1.open('w').write('this is blob 1')
    >>> root1['blob1'] = blob1
    >>> 'blob1' in root1
    True

Aborting a blob add leaves the blob unchanged:

    >>> transaction.abort()
    >>> 'blob1' in root1
    False

    >>> blob1._p_oid
    >>> blob1._p_jar
    >>> blob1.open().read()
    'this is blob 1'

It doesn't clear the file because there is no previously committed version: 

    >>> fname = blob1._p_blob_uncommitted
    >>> import os
    >>> os.path.exists(fname)
    True

Let's put the blob back into the root and commit the change:

    >>> root1['blob1'] = blob1
    >>> transaction.commit()

Now, if we make a change and abort it, we'll return to the committed
state:

    >>> os.path.exists(fname)
    False
    >>> blob1._p_blob_uncommitted

    >>> blob1.open('w').write('this is new blob 1')
    >>> blob1.open().read()
    'this is new blob 1'
    >>> fname = blob1._p_blob_uncommitted
    >>> os.path.exists(fname)
    True

    >>> transaction.abort()
    >>> os.path.exists(fname)
    False
    >>> blob1._p_blob_uncommitted

    >>> blob1.open().read()
    'this is blob 1'

Opening a blob gives us a filehandle.  Getting data out of the
resulting filehandle is accomplished via the filehandle's read method::

    >>> connection2 = database.open()
    >>> root2 = connection2.root()
    >>> blob1a = root2['blob1']

    >>> blob1afh1 = blob1a.open("r")
    >>> blob1afh1.read()
    'this is blob 1'

Let's make another filehandle for read only to blob1a. Aach file
handle has a reference to the (same) underlying blob::

    >>> blob1afh2 = blob1a.open("r")
    >>> blob1afh2.blob is blob1afh1.blob
    True

Let's close the first filehandle we got from the blob::

    >>> blob1afh1.close()

Let's abort this transaction, and ensure that the filehandles that we
opened are still open::

    >>> transaction.abort()
    >>> blob1afh2.read()
    'this is blob 1'

    >>> blob1afh2.close()

If we open a blob for append, writing any number of bytes to the
blobfile should result in the blob being marked "dirty" in the
connection (we just aborted above, so the object should be "clean"
when we start)::

    >>> bool(blob1a._p_changed)
    False
    >>> blob1a.open('r').read()
    'this is blob 1'
    >>> blob1afh3 = blob1a.open('a')
    >>> bool(blob1a._p_changed)
    True
    >>> blob1afh3.write('woot!')
    >>> blob1afh3.close()

We can open more than one blob object during the course of a single
transaction::

    >>> blob2 = ZODB.blob.Blob()
    >>> blob2.open('w').write('this is blob 3')
    >>> root2['blob2'] = blob2
    >>> transaction.commit()

Since we committed the current transaction above, the aggregate
changes we've made to blob, blob1a (these refer to the same object) and
blob2 (a different object) should be evident::

    >>> blob1.open('r').read()
    'this is blob 1woot!'
    >>> blob1a.open('r').read()
    'this is blob 1woot!'
    >>> blob2.open('r').read()
    'this is blob 3'

We shouldn't be able to persist a blob filehandle at commit time
(although the exception which is raised when an object cannot be
pickled appears to be particulary unhelpful for casual users at the
moment)::

    >>> root1['wontwork'] = blob1.open('r')
    >>> transaction.commit()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, BlobFile found

Abort for good measure::

    >>> transaction.abort()

Attempting to change a blob simultaneously from two different
connections should result in a write conflict error::

    >>> tm1 = transaction.TransactionManager()
    >>> tm2 = transaction.TransactionManager()
    >>> root3 = database.open(transaction_manager=tm1).root()
    >>> root4 = database.open(transaction_manager=tm2).root()
    >>> blob1c3 = root3['blob1']
    >>> blob1c4 = root4['blob1']
    >>> blob1c3fh1 = blob1c3.open('a').write('this is from connection 3')
    >>> blob1c4fh1 = blob1c4.open('a').write('this is from connection 4')
    >>> tm1.commit()
    >>> root3['blob1'].open('r').read()
    'this is blob 1woot!this is from connection 3'
    >>> tm2.commit()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    ConflictError: database conflict error (oid 0x01, class ZODB.blob.Blob...)

After the conflict, the winning transaction's result is visible on both
connections::

    >>> root3['blob1'].open('r').read()
    'this is blob 1woot!this is from connection 3'
    >>> tm2.abort()
    >>> root4['blob1'].open('r').read()
    'this is blob 1woot!this is from connection 3'

You can't commit a transaction while blob files are open:

    >>> f = root3['blob1'].open('w')
    >>> tm1.commit()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    ValueError: Can't commit with opened blobs.

    >>> f.close()
    >>> tm1.abort()
    >>> f = root3['blob1'].open('w')
    >>> f.close()

    >>> f = root3['blob1'].open('r')
    >>> tm1.commit()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    ValueError: Can't commit with opened blobs.
    >>> f.close()
    >>> tm1.abort()

Savepoints and Blobs
--------------------

We do support optimistic savepoints:

    >>> connection5 = database.open()
    >>> root5 = connection5.root()
    >>> blob = ZODB.blob.Blob()
    >>> blob_fh = blob.open("w")
    >>> blob_fh.write("I'm a happy blob.")
    >>> blob_fh.close()
    >>> root5['blob'] = blob
    >>> transaction.commit()
    >>> root5['blob'].open("r").read()
    "I'm a happy blob."
    >>> blob_fh = root5['blob'].open("a")
    >>> blob_fh.write(" And I'm singing.")
    >>> blob_fh.close()
    >>> root5['blob'].open("r").read()
    "I'm a happy blob. And I'm singing."
    >>> savepoint = transaction.savepoint(optimistic=True)

    >>> root5['blob'].open("r").read()
    "I'm a happy blob. And I'm singing."

Savepoints store the blobs in temporary directories in the temporary
directory of the blob storage:

    >>> len([name for name in os.listdir(os.path.join(blob_dir, 'tmp'))
    ...      if name.startswith('savepoint')])
    1

After committing the transaction, the temporary savepoint files are moved to
the committed location again:

    >>> transaction.commit()
    >>> len([name for name in os.listdir(os.path.join(blob_dir, 'tmp'))
    ...      if name.startswith('savepoint')])
    0

We support non-optimistic savepoints too:

    >>> root5['blob'].open("a").write(" And I'm dancing.")
    >>> root5['blob'].open("r").read()
    "I'm a happy blob. And I'm singing. And I'm dancing."
    >>> savepoint = transaction.savepoint()

Again, the savepoint creates a new savepoints directory:

    >>> len([name for name in os.listdir(os.path.join(blob_dir, 'tmp'))
    ...      if name.startswith('savepoint')])
    1

    >>> root5['blob'].open("w").write(" And the weather is beautiful.")
    >>> savepoint.rollback()

    >>> root5['blob'].open("r").read()
    "I'm a happy blob. And I'm singing. And I'm dancing."
    >>> transaction.abort()

The savepoint blob directory gets cleaned up on an abort:

    >>> len([name for name in os.listdir(os.path.join(blob_dir, 'tmp'))
    ...      if name.startswith('savepoint')])
    0

Reading Blobs outside of a transaction
--------------------------------------

If you want to read from a Blob outside of transaction boundaries (e.g. to
stream a file to the browser), committed method to get the name of a
file that can be opened.

    >>> connection6 = database.open()
    >>> root6 = connection6.root()
    >>> blob = ZODB.blob.Blob()
    >>> blob_fh = blob.open("w")
    >>> blob_fh.write("I'm a happy blob.")
    >>> blob_fh.close()
    >>> root6['blob'] = blob
    >>> transaction.commit()
    >>> open(blob.committed()).read()
    "I'm a happy blob."

We can also read committed data by calling open with a 'c' flag:

    >>> f = blob.open('c')

This just returns a regular file object:

    >>> type(f)
    <type 'file'>

and doesn't prevent us from opening the blob for writing:

    >>> blob.open('w').write('x')
    >>> blob.open().read()
    'x'

    >>> f.read()
    "I'm a happy blob."

    >>> f.close()
    >>> transaction.abort()

An exception is raised if we call committed on a blob that has
uncommitted changes:

    >>> blob = ZODB.blob.Blob()
    >>> blob.committed()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    BlobError: Uncommitted changes

    >>> blob.open('c')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    BlobError: Uncommitted changes

    >>> blob.open('w').write("I'm a happy blob.")
    >>> root6['blob6'] = blob
    >>> blob.committed()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    BlobError: Uncommitted changes

    >>> blob.open('c')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    BlobError: Uncommitted changes

    >>> s = transaction.savepoint()
    >>> blob.committed()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    BlobError: Uncommitted changes

    >>> blob.open('c')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    BlobError: Uncommitted changes

    >>> transaction.commit()
    >>> open(blob.committed()).read()
    "I'm a happy blob."

You can't open a committed blob file for writing:

    >>> open(blob.committed(), 'w') # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    IOError: ...

tpc_abort
---------

If a transaction is aborted in the middle of 2-phase commit, any data
stored are discarded.

    >>> olddata, oldserial = blob_storage.load(blob._p_oid, '')
    >>> t = transaction.get()
    >>> blob_storage.tpc_begin(t)
    >>> open('blobfile', 'w').write('This data should go away')
    >>> s1 = blob_storage.storeBlob(blob._p_oid, oldserial, olddata, 'blobfile',
    ...                             '', t)
    >>> new_oid = blob_storage.new_oid()
    >>> open('blobfile2', 'w').write('This data should go away too')
    >>> s2 = blob_storage.storeBlob(new_oid, '\0'*8, olddata, 'blobfile2',
    ...                             '', t)

    >>> serials = blob_storage.tpc_vote(t)
    >>> if s1 is None:
    ...     s1 = [s for (oid, s) in serials if oid == blob._p_oid][0]
    >>> if s2 is None:
    ...     s2 = [s for (oid, s) in serials if oid == new_oid][0]

    >>> blob_storage.tpc_abort(t)

Now, the serial for the existing blob should be the same:

    >>> blob_storage.load(blob._p_oid, '') == (olddata, oldserial)
    True

And we shouldn't be able to read the data that we saved:

    >>> blob_storage.loadBlob(blob._p_oid, s1)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    POSKeyError: 'No blob file'

Of course the old data should be unaffected:

    >>> open(blob_storage.loadBlob(blob._p_oid, oldserial)).read()
    "I'm a happy blob."

Similarly, the new object wasn't added to the storage:

    >>> blob_storage.load(new_oid, '')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    POSKeyError: 0x...

    >>> blob_storage.loadBlob(blob._p_oid, s2)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    POSKeyError: 'No blob file'

.. clean up

    >>> tm1.abort()
    >>> tm2.abort()
    >>> database.close()
