Interface BaseDatastoreService (2.0.0)

public interface BaseDatastoreService

Methods that are common between DatastoreService and AsyncDatastoreService.

Methods

getActiveTransactions()

public abstract Collection<Transaction> getActiveTransactions()

Returns all Transactions started by this thread upon which no attempt to commit or rollback has been made.

Returns
TypeDescription
Collection<Transaction>

getCurrentTransaction()

public abstract Transaction getCurrentTransaction()

Returns the current transaction for this thread, or throws an exception if there is no current transaction. The current transaction is defined as the result of the most recent, same-thread invocation of beginTransaction() that has not been committed or rolled back.

Use this method for when you expect there to be a current transaction and consider it an error if there isn't.

Returns
TypeDescription
Transaction

The current transaction.

getCurrentTransaction(Transaction returnedIfNoTxn)

public abstract Transaction getCurrentTransaction(Transaction returnedIfNoTxn)

Returns the current transaction for this thread, or returns the parameter if there is no current transaction. You can use null or provide your own object to represent null. See #getCurrentTransaction() for a definition of "current transaction."

Use this method when you're not sure if there is a current transaction.

Parameter
NameDescription
returnedIfNoTxnTransaction

The return value of this method if there is no current transaction. Can be null.

Returns
TypeDescription
Transaction

The current transaction, or the parameter that was passed in if there is no current transaction.

prepare(Query query)

public abstract PreparedQuery prepare(Query query)

Prepares a query for execution.

This method returns a PreparedQuery which can be used to execute and retrieve results from the datastore for query.

This operation will not execute in a transaction even if there is a current transaction and the provided query is an ancestor query. This operation also ignores the ImplicitTransactionManagementPolicy. If you are preparing an ancestory query and you want it to execute in a transaction, use #prepare(Transaction, Query).

Parameter
NameDescription
queryQuery

a not null Query.

Returns
TypeDescription
PreparedQuery

a not null PreparedQuery.

prepare(Transaction txn, Query query)

public abstract PreparedQuery prepare(Transaction txn, Query query)

Exhibits the same behavior as #prepare(Query), but executes within the provided transaction. It is up to the caller to commit or rollback. Transaction can be null.

Parameters
NameDescription
txnTransaction
queryQuery
Returns
TypeDescription
PreparedQuery
