IDBTransaction.onabort
The onabort
event handler of the IDBTransaction
interface handles the abort event, fired, when the current transaction is aborted via the IDBTransaction.abort
method.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers
Syntax
transaction.onabort = function(event) { ... };
Example
In the following code snippet, we open a read/write transaction on our database and add some data to an object store. Note also the functions attached to transaction event handlers to report on the outcome of the transaction opening in the event of success or failure. Note the transaction.onabort = function(event) { };
block, reporting when the transaction has been aborted. 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 for being inserted 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 opening the transaction transaction.oncomplete = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Transaction completed: database modification finished.</li>'; }; transaction.onerror = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Transaction not opened due to error: ' + transaction.error + '</li>'; }; // create an object store on the transaction var objectStore = transaction.objectStore("toDoList"); // add our newItem object to the object store var objectStoreRequest = objectStore.add(newItem[0]); objectStoreRequest.onsuccess = function(event) { // report the success of the request (this does not mean the item // has been stored successfully in the DB - for that you need transaction.onsuccess) note.innerHTML += '<li>Request successful.</li>'; }; transaction.onabort = function() { // Report when the transaction was successfully aborted console.log("Transaction aborted!"); }; // Abort the transaction we just did transaction.abort(); };
