## Error Handling
```go
query := db.Where("name = ?", "jinzhu").First(&user)
query := db.First(&user).Limit(10).Find(&users)
// query.Error will return the last happened error
// So you could do error handing in your application like this:
if err := db.Where("name = ?", "jinzhu").First(&user).Error; err != nil {
// error handling...
}
// RecordNotFound
// If no record found when you query data, gorm will return RecordNotFound error, you could check it like this:
db.Where("name = ?", "hello world").First(&User{}).Error == gorm.RecordNotFound
// Or use the shortcut method
db.Where("name = ?", "hello world").First(&user).RecordNotFound()
if db.Model(&user).Related(&credit_card).RecordNotFound() {
// no credit card found error handling
}
```
## Transactions
To perform a set of operations within a transaction, the general flow is as below.
The database handle returned from ``` db.Begin() ``` should be used for all operations within the transaction.
(Note that all individual save and delete operations are run in a transaction by default.)
```go
// begin
tx := db.Begin()
// do some database operations (use 'tx' from this point, not 'db')
tx.Create(...)
...
// rollback in case of error
tx.Rollback()
// Or commit if all is ok
tx.Commit()
```
### A Specific Example
```go
func CreateAnimals(db *gorm.DB) err {
tx := db.Begin()
// Note the use of tx as the database handle once you are within a transaction
if err := tx.Create(&Animal{Name: "Giraffe"}).Error; err != nil {
tx.Rollback()
return err
}
if err := tx.Create(&Animal{Name: "Lion"}).Error; err != nil {
tx.Rollback()
return err
}
tx.Commit()
return nil
}
```
## Raw SQL
```go
db.Exec("DROP TABLE users;")
db.Exec("UPDATE orders SET shipped_at=? WHERE id IN (?)", time.Now, []int64{11,22,33})
```
## Row & Rows
It is even possible to get query result as `*sql.Row` or `*sql.Rows`
```go
row := db.Table("users").Where("name = ?", "jinzhu").Select("name, age").Row() // (*sql.Row)
row.Scan(&name, &age)
rows, err := db.Model(&User{}).Where("name = ?", "jinzhu").Select("name, age, email").Rows() // (*sql.Rows, error)
defer rows.Close()
for rows.Next() {
...
rows.Scan(&name, &age, &email)
...
}
// Raw SQL
rows, err := db.Raw("select name, age, email from users where name = ?", "jinzhu").Rows() // (*sql.Rows, error)
defer rows.Close()
for rows.Next() {
...
rows.Scan(&name, &age, &email)
...
}
```
### Scan Rows
```go
rows, err := db.Model(&User{}).Where("name = ?", "jinzhu").Select("name, age, email").Rows() // (*sql.Rows, error)
defer rows.Close()
for rows.Next() {
var user User
db.ScanRows(rows, &user)
// do something
}
```
## Composite Primary Key
```go
type Product struct {
ID string `gorm:"primary_key"`
LanguageCode string `gorm:"primary_key"`
}
```
## Logger
Gorm has built-in logger support
```go
// Enable Logger
db.LogMode(true)
// Diable Logger
db.LogMode(false)
// Debug a single operation
db.Debug().Where("name = ?", "jinzhu").First(&User{})
```

### Customize Logger
```go
// Refer gorm's default logger for how to: https://github.com/jinzhu/gorm/blob/master/logger.go#files
db.SetLogger(gorm.Logger{revel.TRACE})
db.SetLogger(log.New(os.Stdout, "\r\n", 0))
```
