The actor stack involves writing to several diffrent persistence layers; at
least:
The transactionality provided by
Hyrax::Actors::TransactionalRequest
addressesonly one of these (ActiveRecord). Routinely, failures in the actor stack that
trigger transaction rollback there lead to broken states across the various data
stores.
Additionally, this rollback is not triggered for the main documented failure API
for the stack (returning
false
). Rollback only happens when uncaught errorsare propagated to the top of the stack.
Since this middleware is problematic and doesn't have a clear documented use
case, this proposes its removal.
Fixes #3128.
