Optional INSERT statement in transaction chain usi

2019-01-28 21:52发布

问题:

I'm building a simple webapp using NodeJS/Postgres that needs to make 3 insertions on database.

To control the chain of statements I'm using pg-transaction.

My problem is that I have to always run the 2 first INSERTS, but I have a condition to run the 3rd one.

Maybe my code could be build in a better manner (suggestions are welcome).

Here's a pseudo code:

function(req, res) {
  var tx = new Transaction(client);
  tx.on('error', die);
  tx.begin();
  
  tx.query('INSERT_1 VALUES(...) RETURNING id', paramValues, function(err, result) {
    if (err) {
      tx.rollback();
      res.send("Something was wrong!");
      return;
    }
    
    var paramValues2 = result.rows[0].id;
    tx.query('INSERT_2 VALUES(...)', paramValues2, function(err2, result2) {
      if (err) {
        tx.rollback();
        res.send("Something was wrong!");
        return;
      }
      
      // HERE'S THE PROBLEM (I don't want to run it always this last statement)
      // If I don't run it, I will miss tx.commit()
      if (req.body.value != null) {
        tx.query('INSERT_3 VALUES(...)', paramValues3, function(err3, result3) {
          if (err) {
            tx.rollback();
            res.send("Something was wrong!");
            return;
          }
        
          tx.commit();
          res.send("Everything fine!");
        });
      }
    });
  });
}

It seems so ugly to repeat three times the same if (err) {} after each query.

Trying to check some options I found Sequelize, but couldn't see a way to solve this problem with it.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks!

Manual transaction management is a treacherous path, try to steer away from that! ;)

Here's how to do it properly, with the help of pg-promise:

function(req, res) {
    db.tx(t => { // automatic BEGIN
            return t.one('INSERT_1 VALUES(...) RETURNING id', paramValues)
                .then(data => {
                    var q = t.none('INSERT_2 VALUES(...)', data.id);
                    if (req.body.value != null) {
                        return q.then(()=> t.none('INSERT_3 VALUES(...)', data.id));
                    }
                    return q;
                });
        })
        .then(data => {
            res.send("Everything's fine!"); // automatic COMMIT was executed
        })
        .catch(error => {
            res.send("Something is wrong!"); // automatic ROLLBACK was executed
        });
}

Or, if you prefer ES6 generators:

function (req, res) {
    db.tx(function * (t) { // automatic BEGIN
            let data = yield t.one('INSERT_1 VALUES(...) RETURNING id', paramValues);
            let q = yield t.none('INSERT_2 VALUES(...)', data.id);
            if (req.body.value != null) {
                return yield t.none('INSERT_3 VALUES(...)', data.id);
            }
            return q;
        })
        .then(data => {
            res.send("Everything's fine!"); // automatic COMMIT was executed
        })
        .catch(error => {
            res.send("Something is wrong!"); // automatic ROLLBACK was executed
        });
}
