Laravel 8/MongoDB - job->release() leads to Call to a member function beginTransaction() on null error

• Laravel-framework: 8.34.0
• PHP Version: 7.3.26
• Database Driver & Version:

Description:

Steps to reproduce

1. Create & dispatch a Job using MongoDB as queue driver
2. Call $this->release() in the job
3. Exception: job->release() leads to "Call to a member function beginTransaction() on null" error

Expected behaviour

Job should be pushed back onto the queue with count of attempts += 1

Actual behaviour

Exception: Call to a member function beginTransaction() on null

Cause

In Laravel 8 the Illuminate\Queue\DatabaseQueue class was updated with changed functionality. Instead of calling $database->release() it nows calls a new method $database->deleteAndRelease() which wraps the delete & release operations into a transaction, I'll try to add a PR later which fixes this in Jenssegers\Mongodb\Queue\MongoQueue by adding an overwrite (like it is already done for deleteReserved() and pop() methods of the DatabaseQueue):

public function deleteAndRelease($queue, $job, $delay)
{
  $this->deleteReserved($queue, $job->getJobId());
  $this->release($queue, $job->getJobRecord(), $delay);
}
