Transaction

The transaction object is used to identify a running transaction. It is created by calling Sequelize.transaction(). To run a query under a transaction, you should pass the transaction in the options object.

public static get ISOLATION_LEVELS: {"READ_UNCOMMITTED": string, "READ_COMMITTED": string, "REPEATABLE_READ": string, "SERIALIZABLE": string} source

Isolation levels can be set per-transaction by passing options.isolationLevel to sequelize.transaction. Sequelize uses the default isolation level of the database, you can override this by passing options.isolationLevel in Sequelize constructor options.

Pass in the desired level as the first argument:

Properties:

Name Type Attribute Description
READ_UNCOMMITTED *
READ_COMMITTED *
REPEATABLE_READ *
SERIALIZABLE *

Example:

return sequelize.transaction({isolationLevel: Sequelize.Transaction.ISOLATION_LEVELS.SERIALIZABLE}, transaction => {
  // your transactions
}).then(result => {
  // transaction has been committed. Do something after the commit if required.
}).catch(err => {
  // do something with the err.
});

public static get LOCK: Object: {"UPDATE": string, "SHARE": string, "KEY_SHARE": string, "NO_KEY_UPDATE": string} source

Possible options for row locking. Used in conjunction with find calls:

Properties:

Name Type Attribute Description
UPDATE *
SHARE *
KEY_SHARE *

Postgres 9.3+ only
NO_KEY_UPDATE *

Postgres 9.3+ only

Return:

Object

Return Properties:

Name Type Attribute Description
UPDATE *
SHARE *
KEY_SHARE *

Postgres 9.3+ only
NO_KEY_UPDATE *

Postgres 9.3+ only

Example:

// t1 is a transaction
Model.findAll({
  where: ...,
  transaction: t1,
  lock: t1.LOCK...
});
Postgres also supports specific locks while eager loading by using OF: 
UserModel.findAll({
  where: ...,
  include: [TaskModel, ...],
  transaction: t1,
  lock: {
    level: t1.LOCK...,
    of: UserModel
  }
});

# UserModel will be locked but TaskModel won't!
You can also skip locked rows: 
// t1 is a transaction
Model.findAll({
  where: ...,
  transaction: t1,
  lock: true,
  skipLocked: true
});
# The query will now return any rows that aren't locked by another transaction

public static get TYPES: {"DEFERRED": string, "IMMEDIATE": string, "EXCLUSIVE": string} source

Types can be set per-transaction by passing options.type to sequelize.transaction. Default to DEFERRED but you can override the default type by passing options.transactionType in new Sequelize. Sqlite only.

Pass in the desired level as the first argument:

Properties:

Name Type Attribute Description
DEFERRED *
IMMEDIATE *
EXCLUSIVE *

Example:

return sequelize.transaction({type: Sequelize.Transaction.TYPES.EXCLUSIVE}, transaction => {
  // your transactions
}).then(result => {
  // transaction has been committed. Do something after the commit if required.
}).catch(err => {
  // do something with the err.
});
