How to know if the triggered events succeed or fail in Yii2

I trigger an event in Yii2 transaction, and I want to know if the event handler succeed to commit the transaction, or fail to rollback.

Is a global variable or class const the right way?

What I do now is throwing an error in the event handlers.

Solution

  • Usually you're using event object to store state of event. Create custom event:

    class MyEvent extends Event {

    public $isCommited = false;
}

    Use it on trigger and check the result:

    $event = new MyEvent();
$this->trigger('myEvent', $event);
if ($event->isCommited) {
    // do something
}

    In event handler you need to set this property:

    function ($event) {
    // do something
    $event->isCommited = true;
}

    If you want to break event flow you may use $handled property instead of isCommited and custom event.
