How do I handle transactions in Go using an ORM?

To handle transactions in Go with an ORM, you typically start a transaction, perform your operations, and then commit or rollback.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example using GORM:

db.Transaction(func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    if err := tx.Create(&user).Error; err != nil {
        return err
    }
    if err := tx.Create(&profile).Error; err != nil {
        return err
    }
    return nil
})

What happens if one of the operations fails?

If one of the operations fails, the transaction will automatically rollback, ensuring data integrity.

Are there any best practices for using transactions?

Yes, always keep transactions short, avoid long-running transactions, and handle errors properly to ensure reliability.
