Session: Opening a Session

To open session use the openSession method from DocumentStore.

Syntax

There are three overloads of openSession methods

// Open session for a 'default' database configured in 'DocumentStore'
IDocumentSession openSession();

// Open session for a specified database
IDocumentSession openSession(String database);

IDocumentSession openSession(SessionOptions sessionOptions);

The first method is an equivalent of doing

store.openSession(new SessionOptions());

The second method is an equivalent of doing

SessionOptions sessionOptions = new SessionOptions();
sessionOptions.setDatabase(databaseName);
store.openSession(sessionOptions);

Example

try (IDocumentSession session = store.openSession()) {
    // code here
}
