Method: Sequel::Postgres::DatasetMethods#lock

Defined in:
lib/sequel/adapters/shared/postgres.rb

#lock(mode, opts = OPTS) ⇒ Object

Locks all tables in the dataset’s FROM clause (but not in JOINs) with the specified mode (e.g. ‘EXCLUSIVE’). If a block is given, starts a new transaction, locks the table, and yields. If a block is not given, just locks the tables. Note that PostgreSQL will probably raise an error if you lock the table outside of an existing transaction. Returns nil.
