Having CRUD functions and Transaction Support

Hello all,

I'm using Supabase as my DB and SvelteKit both for the frontend and backend.

I decided to create some "CRUD" files, to manage creations and deletions. The purpose would be to set the values of variables such as created_at, created_by (which is a foreign key to user_id), updated_at and updated_by. I was creating my function like this:

import { db } from "$lib/server/connections/drizzle/drizzleClient";
import { person } from "$lib/server/connections/drizzle/schema";
import type { Person } from "$lib/types/database/databaseTypes";

export async function createOrUpdatePerson(inputPerson: Person) {
    try {

        let response;
        // Check if it is update (if the id is already filled)
        {
            const currentTimestamp = new Date().getTime();
            inputPerson.updatedAt= new Date(currentTimestamp).toString();
            response = await db.update(person).set(inputPerson).returning({personId: person.id})
        }
        // If not, it is a creation
        else{
            const currentTimestamp = new Date().getTime();
            inputPerson.createdAt= new Date(currentTimestamp).toString();
            response = await db.insert(person).values(inputPerson).returning({personId: person.id})
        }
        return {success: true}

    }
    catch(error){
        return {success: false, errorMessage: error}
    }
}


However, I now realized that by doing this, I'll not be able to use transactions. Is there any way I can define that 'updatedAt' should be set to the current timestamp and still use transactions?

Thank you!
