Why return is not read in transactions?

Question

My code like this:

  public async update(params: any) {
    await Database.transaction(async (trx) => {
      const data = await Period.findOrFail(params.id, { client: trx })
      data.from = params.from
      data.to = params.to
      data.desc = params.desc

      data.useTransaction(trx)
      await data.save()

      let arrFiles = []
      for (let i in params.file_names) {
        arrFiles.push({
          fileName: Date.now() + '_' + params.file_names[i],
          fileUri: params.file_uris[i],
          createdBy: params.created_by,
        })
      }

      await period
        .related('files')
        .updateOrCreateMany(arrFiles, 'fileUrl', { client: trx })
      await File.query()
        .whereIn('id', params.removed_file_id)
        .useTransaction(trx)
        .delete()
      return { success: true }
    })
  }

I had trx in findOrFail , save , updateOrCreateMany , delete . But if I run the query it's not read return { success: true }

Is there something wrong with adding trx to the update process?

If I check on the preview tab in the console, itu return empty object, no properties. Whereas the update prosess success. I check in table of database, it success create, delete & update. Should it return { success: true }

How can I solve this problem?

Please help. Thanks

Your function is a void function so it does nothing. Add a return statement will solve it.

 public async update(params: any) { return Database.transaction(async (trx) => { const data = await Period.findOrFail(params.id, { client: trx }) data.from = params.from data.to = params.to data.desc = params.desc data.useTransaction(trx) await data.save() let arrFiles = [] for (let i in params.file_names) { arrFiles.push({ fileName: Date.now() + '_' + params.file_names[i], fileUri: params.file_uris[i], createdBy: params.created_by, }) } await period.related('files').updateOrCreateMany(arrFiles, 'fileUrl', { client: trx }) await File.query().whereIn('id', params.removed_file_id).useTransaction(trx).delete() return { success: true } }) }
