modResource.removeLock

Drops the lock record, but only when it is free or held by the given user.

Returns false when another user holds the lock, when not running under modX, or when the registry service is unavailable. In those cases nothing is removed.

Syntax

boolean removeLock ([int $user = 0])
  • $user (int) user whose lock is to be released; 0 selects the logged-in user

Example

$resource = $modx->getObject('modResource', array('id' => 5));
$resource->removeLock();
