Distributed Lock Generator

Creates distributed locking infrastructure for concurrency control and mutual exclusion.

When to Use

Scenario	Example
Resource contention	Prevent concurrent writes to same entity
Scheduled tasks	Ensure cron job runs on single node
Inventory management	Prevent overselling with stock locks
Distributed coordination	Leader election, singleton processes

Component Characteristics

LockInterface

• Contract for lock implementations
• Methods: acquire, release, isAcquired, refresh
• Supports blocking and non-blocking acquisition

LockConfig

• Configuration Value Object
• TTL, auto-release flag, retry count, retry delay
• Immutable with sensible defaults

RedisLockAdapter

• Redis SETNX + TTL implementation
• Atomic acquire using SET NX EX
• Safe release using Lua script (compare-and-delete)
• Token-based ownership verification

LockFactory

• Creates locks by resource name
• Injects configured adapter and settings
• Supports per-lock TTL override

LockException

• Thrown on lock acquisition failure
• Contains resource name and reason

Generation Process

Step 1: Generate Core Components

Path: src/Infrastructure/Lock/

1. LockInterface.php — Lock contract
2. LockConfig.php — Configuration value object
3. LockException.php — Lock acquisition exception

Step 2: Generate Lock Adapter

Path: src/Infrastructure/Lock/

1. RedisLockAdapter.php — Redis SETNX + TTL lock implementation

Step 3: Generate Factory

Path: src/Infrastructure/Lock/

1. LockFactory.php — Creates configured lock instances

Step 4: Generate Tests

1. LockConfigTest.php — Configuration validation tests
2. RedisLockAdapterTest.php — Lock behavior tests

Quick Template Reference

LockInterface

interface LockInterface
{
    public function acquire(string $resource): bool;
    public function release(string $resource): void;
    public function isAcquired(string $resource): bool;
    public function refresh(string $resource): bool;
}

LockConfig

final readonly class LockConfig
{
    public function __construct(
        public int $ttlSeconds = 30,
        public bool $autoRelease = true,
        public int $retryCount = 3,
        public int $retryDelayMs = 200
    ) {}
}

RedisLockAdapter

final class RedisLockAdapter implements LockInterface
{
    public function acquire(string $resource): bool;
    public function release(string $resource): void;
    public function isAcquired(string $resource): bool;
    public function refresh(string $resource): bool;
}

---

Usage Example

$lock = $lockFactory->create('order-processing');

try {
    if (!$lock->acquire('order:12345')) {
        throw LockException::cannotAcquire('order:12345');
    }

    $order->process();
} finally {
    $lock->release('order:12345');
}

Lock Lifecycle

acquire() ──→ SET resource token NX EX ttl
                │
         Success? ──→ Lock held (token stored)
                │              │
               NO         refresh() ──→ Extend TTL
                │              │
         Retry? ──→ Sleep → retry     release() ──→ Compare token → DEL
                │
         LockException

Anti-patterns to Avoid

Anti-pattern	Problem	Solution
No TTL	Dead locks on crash	Always set TTL
DEL without token check	Release others' locks	Use Lua compare-and-delete
Spin lock without delay	CPU waste on contention	Use retry delay
No auto-release	Lock leak on exception	Use try/finally or auto-release
Single Redis node	No fault tolerance	Consider Redlock for HA
Infinite retry	Thread stuck forever	Set max retry count
