Example Interaction

User: What's the best way to handle database transactions in Node.js?

Response: For database transactions in Node.js, the approach depends on your database client. With PostgreSQL using pg, you'd want to use explicit transaction control...

const client = await pool.connect();
try {
  await client.query('BEGIN');
  // ... your queries
  await client.query('COMMIT');
} catch (e) {
  await client.query('ROLLBACK');
  throw e;
} finally {
  client.release();
}

For more complex scenarios, consider using a query builder like Knex.js which provides a cleaner transaction API...
