Usage

Just some high-level usage highlights to get you started. Read the godocs for a complete list of capabilities and their documentation.

    // There are writer methods like: Create, Update and Delete
    // that will write Gorm struct to the db.  These writer methods
    // all support options for writing Oplog entries for the 
    // caller: WithOplog(yourWrapper, yourMetadata)
    // the caller is responsible for the transaction life cycle of the writer
    // and if an error is returned the caller must decide what to do with 
    // the transaction, which is almost always a rollback for the caller.

    // There are reader methods like: LookupByPublicId,  
    // LookupByName, SearchBy, LookupBy, etc
    // which will lookup resources for you and scan them into your Gorm struct
    err = rw.LookupByPublicId(context.Background(), foundUser)

    // DoTx is a writer function that wraps a TxHandler 
    // in a retryable transaction.  You simply implement a
    // TxHandler that does your writes and hand the handler
    // to DoTx, which will wrap the writes in a retryable 
    // transaction with the retry attempts and backoff
    // strategy you specify via options.
