transaction support for in memory objects (beta)
npm install transactionTransaction support for in memory objects (Beta)
Transaction support for in memory objects. For robustness and performance both
Lock/Commit/Rollback in memory objects just like access data in traditional database
``
var T = require('transaction');
var Q = require('q');
var obj = {simple : 1, compound : {key : 1}};
// Make object transactionable
T.transactionable(obj);
// You can also specify which keys to include or exclude
// Object attributes which cannot be deepcopyed must be excluded
// (like reference to outer resources or circular reference)
// T.transactionable(obj, {includeKeys : 'key1 key2'});
// T.transactionable(obj, {excludeKeys : 'key1 key2'});
// Execute code in a new 'database connection'
// The 'connection/lock/commit/rollback' terminologies are similar to traditional database
T.execute(function(){
return Q.fcall(function(){
// lock obj for write
// lock from other execute content will block
// and read from other execute content will always see old value until commit
// You can also lock multiple objects by T.lock([obj1, obj2]);
return T.lock(obj);
})
.then(function(){
obj.simple = 2; // Set 'simple' value
// obj.compound.key = 2; // Oops! Don't do this!
var compound = obj.compound; // Retrieve 'compound' value
compound.key = 2;
obj.compound = compound; // Set 'compound' value
T.commit(); // All locks will be released after commit or rollback
console.log(obj.simple); // Read only access
// obj.simple = 3; // Oops! Should lock first
})
.then(function(){
return T.lock(obj);
})
.then(function(){
obj.simple = 3;
throw new Error('Exception here!');
})
.then(function(){
T.commit(); // This will not execute
}, function(err){
T.rollback(); // Should rolled back
})
.then(function(){
console.log(obj.simple); // output: 2
});
});
