Activerecord::WrappedTransaction

Wrap transactions in an object-oriented way so that you can tell if an individual transaction succeeded, rolled back, or was cancelled.

Supported versions and databases:

  • Rails 5 and 6
  • MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite
  • Ruby 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "activerecord-wrapped_transaction", "~> 0.9"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install activerecord-wrapped_transaction -v "~> 0.9"

Usage

Contrived example:

ActiveRecord::Base.include ActiveRecord::WrappedTransaction

wrapped_result = ActiveRecord::Base.wrapped_transaction do |context|
  user = User.create! attributes 

  failable_result = OptionalThing.wrapped_transaction requires_new: true do
    # This can fail, but we'll let it
    OptionalThing.create! user: user, foo: "bar"
  end

  failable_result.rolled_back? # => true

  # There is also a shorthand that uses the optional context helper
  # This creates a new transaction layer that has requires_new: true
  # set implicitly.
  other_failable = context.maybe do
	Something.explodes!
  end

  other_failable.rolled_back? # => true

  cancelled = context.maybe do |inner_context|
	inner_context.cancel! "arbitrarily"
  end

  cancelled.cancelled? # => true
  cancelled.rolled_back? # => true
  cancelled.cancellation_reason # => "arbitrarily"

  # return our result
  user
end

wrapped_result.result # => user
wrapped_result.success? # => true
wrapped_result.rolled_back? # => false

You can pass the same options you would to ActiveRecord::Base.transaction: requires_new, isolation, joinable
