IDBObjectStore.transaction
The transaction
read-only property of the IDBObjectStore
interface returns the transaction object to which this object store belongs.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers
Syntax
var myTransaction = objectStore.transaction;
Value
An IDBTransaction
object.
Example
In the following code snippet, we open a read/write transaction on our database and add some data to an object store using add()
. After the object store has been created, we log objectStore.transaction
to the console. For a full working example, see our To-do Notifications app (view example live.)
// Let us open our database var DBOpenRequest = window.indexedDB.open("toDoList", 4); DBOpenRequest.onsuccess = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Database initialised.</li>'; // store the result of opening the database in the db variable. // This is used a lot below db = DBOpenRequest.result; // Run the addData() function to add the data to the database addData(); }; function addData() { // Create a new object ready to insert into the IDB var newItem = [ { taskTitle: "Walk dog", hours: 19, minutes: 30, day: 24, month: "December", year: 2013, notified: "no" } ]; // open a read/write db transaction, ready for adding the data var transaction = db.transaction(["toDoList"], "readwrite"); // report on the success of the transaction completing, when everything is done transaction.oncomplete = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Transaction completed.</li>'; }; transaction.onerror = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Transaction not opened due to error. Duplicate items not allowed.</li>'; }; // create an object store on the transaction var objectStore = transaction.objectStore("toDoList"); console.log(objectStore.transaction); // Make a request to add our newItem object to the object store var objectStoreRequest = objectStore.add(newItem[0]); objectStoreRequest.onsuccess = function(event) { // report the success of our request note.innerHTML += '<li>Request successful.</li>'; }; };
