8.1.1 Processing Warnings

Similar to the execution of single statements committing or rolling back a transaction can also trigger warnings. To be able to process these warnings the replied result object of Session.commit(); or Session.rollback(); needs to be checked.

This is shown in the following example. The example assumes that the test schema exists and that the collection my_collection does not exist.

from mysqlsh import mysqlx

# Connect to server
mySession = mysqlx.get_session( {
        'host': 'localhost', 'port': 33060,
        'user': 'user', 'password': 'password' } )

# Get the Schema test
myDb = mySession.get_schema('test')

# Create a new collection
myColl = myDb.create_collection('my_collection')

# Start a transaction
mySession.start_transaction()
try:
    myColl.add({'name': 'Rohit', 'age': 18, 'height': 1.76}).execute()
    myColl.add({'name': 'Misaki', 'age': 24, 'height': 1.65}).execute()
    myColl.add({'name': 'Leon', 'age': 39, 'height': 1.9}).execute()

    # Commit the transaction if everything went well
    reply = mySession.commit()

    # handle warnings
    if reply.warning_count:
      for warning in result.get_warnings():
        print('Type [%s] (Code %s): %s\n' % (warning.level, warning.code, warning.message))

    print('Data inserted successfully.')
except Exception as err:
    # Rollback the transaction in case of an error
    reply = mySession.rollback()

    # handle warnings
    if reply.warning_count:
      for warning in result.get_warnings():
        print('Type [%s] (Code %s): %s\n' % (warning.level, warning.code, warning.message))

    # Printing the error message
    print('Data could not be inserted: %s' % str(err))

By default all warnings are sent from the server to the client. If an operation is known to generate many warnings and the warnings are of no value to the application then sending the warnings can be suppressed. This helps to save bandwith. session.setFetchWarnings() controls whether warnings are discarded at the server or are sent to the client. session.getFetchWarnings() is used to learn the currently active setting.

  else:
    print("No warnings were returned.\n")


# Connect to server
mySession = mysqlx.get_session( {
  'host': 'localhost', 'port': 33060,
  'user': 'user', 'password': 'password' } );

# Disables warning generation
mySession.set_fetch_warnings(False)
result = mySession.sql('drop schema if exists unexisting').execute()
process_warnings(result)

# Enables warning generation
mySession.set_fetch_warnings(True)
result = mySession.sql('drop schema if exists unexisting').execute()
process_warnings(result)
