Prisma Client Extension - Callback-free Interactive Transactions

This example shows a Prisma Client extension which adds a new API for starting interactive transactions without callbacks.

This gives you the full power of interactive transactions (such as read–modify–write cycles), but in a more imperative API. This may be more convenient than the normal callback-style API for interactive transactions in some scenarios:

const tx = await prisma.$begin();
const user = await tx.user.findFirstOrThrow();
await tx.user.update(/* ... */);
await tx.$commit(); // Or: await tx.$rollback();

Caveats

This extension is provided as an example only. It is not intended to be used in production environments.

Please read the documentation on client extensions for more information.
