Laravel 5.1 redirect within a transaction block

问题

I have a set of delete statements in my Laravel 5.1 application that I have put inside a transaction.

I had my code like the following and was trying to return to the same page. But I was getting a blank page. My routes.php is fine.

DB::transaction(function () use ($foo, $bar, $request)  
{   
    // Delete from table abc
    $deletedFoo = DB::delete('delete from abc where id = ' .  $foo);

    // Delete from table xyz
    $deletedBar = DB::delete('delete from xyz where id = ' .  $bar);

    // Shows blank page
    $request->session()->flash('changes_saved', 'Success! All your changes were saved.');
    return back();

});

However, if I put the return starement outside the DB::transaction block it works fine.

DB::transaction(function () use ($foo, $bar)    
{   
    // Delete from table abc
    $deletedFoo = DB::delete('delete from abc where id = ' .  $foo);

    // Delete from table xyz
    $deletedBar = DB::delete('delete from xyz where id = ' .  $bar);
});

// Goes back to the page with the message
$request->session()->flash('changes_saved', 'Success! All your changes were saved.');
return back();

I tried various things before I realized I need to put the redirect outside the transaction. But why? I am new to Laravel and bit confused here.

You have to use return like this:

return DB::transaction(function () {
    ...
    return back();
});

To understand it let's break the code:

$transaction = function ($foo, $bar, $request)  
{
    // ...
    return back();
}

return DB::transaction($transaction); // return is required here

Unless you return the DB::transaction call to your controller class then it'll not be returned. So, use return like this:

public function controllerMethod()
{
    return DB::transaction(...); // You must return
}

So, just put the return keywork before your DB::transaction(...). Also, it would be better if you controll the execution flow from outside the transaction, for example:

$result = DB::transaction(function () use ($foo, $bar) {
    // ...
    return true;
});

if($result === true) {
    return back();
}
