Methods
changeLock()
Check the type of an existing lock.
public
changeLock(int $targetType) : mixed
A shared lock can be changed to an exclusive lock is there is exactly one shared lock on the file, an exclusive lock can always be changed to a shared lock since there can only be one exclusive lock int he first place.
A locked exception will be thrown when these preconditions are not met. Note that this is also the case if no existing lock exists for the file.

get a file or folder inside the folder by its internal id

getFirstNodeById(int $id) : Node|null
Unlike getById, this method only returns a single node even if the user has access to the file with the requested id multiple times.

Apps that require accurate information about the users access to the file should use getById instead of pick the correct node out of the result.

boollock()
Acquire a lock on this file or folder.
public
lock(int $type) : mixed
A shared (read) lock will prevent any exclusive (write) locks from being created but any number of shared locks can be active at the same time. An exclusive lock will prevent any other lock from being created (both shared and exclusive).
A locked exception will be thrown if any conflicting lock already exists
Note that this uses mandatory locking, if you acquire an exclusive lock on a file it will block all other operations for that file, even within the same php process.
Acquiring any lock on a file will also create a shared lock on all parent folders of that file.
Note that in most cases you won't need to manually manage the locks for any files you're working with, any filesystem operation will automatically acquire the relevant locks for that operation.
Parameters
- $type : int
-
\OCP\Lock\ILockingProvider::LOCK_SHARED or \OCP\Lock\ILockingProvider::LOCK_EXCLUSIVE
