In a procedure called from the top level or an anonymous code block
(DO
command) called from the top level it is possible
to control transactions. To commit the current transaction, call the
commit
command. To roll back the current transaction,
call the rollback
command. (Note that it is not
possible to run the SQL commands COMMIT
or
ROLLBACK
via spi_exec
or similar.
It has to be done using these functions.) After a transaction is ended,
a new transaction is automatically started, so there is no separate
command for that.
Here is an example:
CREATE PROCEDURE transaction_test1() LANGUAGE pltcl AS $$ for {set i 0} {$i < 10} {incr i} { spi_exec "INSERT INTO test1 (a) VALUES ($i)" if {$i % 2 == 0} { commit } else { rollback } } $$; CALL transaction_test1();
Transactions cannot be ended when an explicit subtransaction is active.
