Interface BaseDatastoreService (2.0.0)

Methods that are common between DatastoreService and AsyncDatastoreService.

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

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 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.

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).

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.
