✨ TSHTTPTXNABORTED ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because we're diving into the 3ts manual and this one is short but it's also lowkey load-bearing, so pay attention πŸ’…

🌸 NAME 🌸

TSHttpTxnAborted β€” the TSHttpTxnAborted API function, aka the little vibe check you run on a transaction to find out if it's still alive or if it already ghosted you πŸ‘»


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

#include <ts/ts.h>

TSReturnCode TSHttpTxnAborted(TSHttpTxn txnp)

that's it. one include, one function, one argument. iconic, honestly.


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea: TSHttpTxnAborted() returns TS_SUCCESS if the requested transaction is aborted. fr fr, that's the whole plot.

and when do you call it? bestie this is the important part β€” you use this function to determine whether a transaction has been aborted before you go and attempt to cache the results. like, don't be out here caching stuff for a transaction that already dipped. that's not main character energy, that's just chaos 😭

think of it as the "hey, are you still there?" text you send before you commit to plans. check first, cache second. periodt.


πŸ‘‘ RETURN VALUES πŸ‘‘

  • TS_SUCCESS β€” the API returns this if the requested transaction is aborted. yes, success means aborted. don't question it, just read the docs bestie πŸ™ˆ
  • TS_ERROR β€” the API returns this otherwise. (i.e. the transaction is not aborted.)

and that's the wrap, bestie β€” this little gem lives in the Apache Traffic Server 3ts manual, version 9.2, dated Feb 12, 2026 🫢 go forth and check your transactions before you cache, mwah πŸ’‹
