+# Transactions in Dynamoid
+
+Synchronous write operations are supported in Dynamoid using transactions.
+If any action in the transaction fails they all fail.
+The following actions are supported:
+
+* Create - add a new item if it does not already exist
+* Upsert - add a new item or update an existing item, no callbacks
+* Update - modifies one or more attributes from an existig item
+* Delete - remove an item without callbacks, validations nor existence check
+* Destroy - remove an item, fails if item does not exist
+
+## Examples
+
+
+
+### Save models
+Models can be saved in a transaction.
+New records are created otherwise the model is updated.
+Save, create, update, validate and destroy callbacks are called around the transaction as appropriate.
+Validation failures will throw Dynamoid::Errors::DocumentNotValid.
+
+```ruby
+user = User.find(1)
+article = Article.new(body: 'New article text', user_id: user.id)
+Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.execute do |txn|
+  txn.save!(article)
+  user.last_article_id = article.id
+  txn.save!(user)
+end
+```
+
+### Create items
+Items can be created inside of a transaction.
+The hash key and range key, if applicable, are used to determine uniqueness.
+Creating will fail with Aws::DynamoDB::Errors::TransactionCanceledException if an item already exists unless skip_existence_check is true.
+This example creates a user with a  unique id and unique email address by creating 2 items.
+An additional item is upserted in the same transaction.
+Upserts will update updated_at but will not create created_at.
+
+```ruby
+user_id = SecureRandom.uuid
+email = '[email protected]'
+Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.execute do |txn|
+  txn.create!(User, id: user_id)
+  txn.create!(UserEmail, id: "UserEmail##{email}", user_id: user_id)
+  txn.create!(Address, { id: 'A#2', street: '456' }, { skip_existence_check: true })
+  txn.upsert!(Address, id: 'A#1', street: '123')
+end
+```
+
+### Destroy or delete items
+Models can be used or the model class and key can be specified.
+When the key is a single column it is specified as a single value or a hash
+with the name of the hash key.
+When using a composite key the key must be a hash with the hash key and range key.
+destroy() uses callbacks and validations and fails if the item does not exist.
+Use delete() to skip callbacks, validations and the existence check.
+
+```ruby
+article = Article.find(1)
+tag = article.tag
+Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.execute do |txn|
+  txn.destroy!(article)
+  txn.destroy!(Article, 2) # performs find() automatically and then runs destroy callbacks
+  txn.destroy!(tag)
+  txn.delete(Tag, 2) # delete record with hash key '2' if it exists
+  txn.delete(Tag, id: 2) # equivalent of the above if the hash key column is 'id'
+  txn.delete(Tag, id: 'key#abcd', my_sort_key: 'range#1') # when range key is required
+end
+```
+
+### Skipping callbacks and validations
+Validations and callbacks can be skipped per action.
+Validation failures will throw Dynamoid::Errors::DocumentNotValid when using the bang! methods.
+Note that validation callbacks are run when validation happens even if skipping callbacks here.
+Skipping callbacks and validation guarantees no callbacks.
+
+```ruby
+user = User.find(1)
+user.red = true
+Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.execute do |txn|
+  txn.save!(user, skip_callbacks: true)
+  txn.create!(User, { name: 'bob' }, { skip_callbacks: true })
+end
+Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.execute do |txn|
+  txn.save!(user, skip_validation: true)
+  txn.create!(User, { name: 'bob' }, { skip_validation: true })
+end
+```
+
+### Validation failures that don't raise
+All of the transaction methods can be called without the bang! which results in
+false instead of a raised exception when validation fails.
+Ignoring validation failures can lead to confusion or bugs so always check return status when not using a bang!
+
+```ruby
+user = User.find(1)
+user.red = true
+Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.execute do |txn|
+  if txn.save(user) # won't raise validation exception
+    txn.update(UserCount, id: 'UserCount#Red', count: 5)
+  else
+    puts 'ALERT: user not valid, skipping'
+  end
+end
+```
+
+### Incrementally building a transaction
+Transactions can also be built without a block.
+
+```ruby
+transaction = Dynamoid::TransactionWrite.new
+transaction.create!(User, id: user_id)
+transaction.create!(UserEmail, id: "UserEmail##{email}", user_id: user_id)
+transaction.upsert!(Address, id: 'A#1', street: '123')
+transaction.commit
+```
