NAME
commit-transaction - (database)
PURPOSE
Commits a database transaction.
SYNTAX
commit-transaction [ @<database> ] \
[ on-error-continue | on-error-exit ] \
[ error <error> ] [ error-text <error text> ] \
[ options <options> ]
DESCRIPTION
Database transaction started with begin-transaction is committed with commit-transaction.
<options> (in "options" clause) is any additional options to send to database you wish to supply for this
functionality.
Once you start a transaction with begin-transaction, you must either commit it with commit-transaction or
rollback with rollback-transaction. If you do neither, your transaction will be rolled back once the
request has completed and your program will stop with an error message. This is because opening a
transaction and leaving without committing or a rollback is a bug in your program.
You must use begin-transaction, commit-transaction and rollback-transaction instead of calling this
functionality through run-query.
DATABASE
<database> is specified in "@" clause and is the name of the database-config-file. If omitted, your
program must use exactly one database (see --db option in gg).
ERROR HANDLING
The error code is available in <error> variable in "error" clause - this code is always "0" if
successful. The <error> code may or may not be a number but is always returned as a string value. In case
of error, error text is available in "error-text" clause in <error text> string.
"on-error-continue" clause specifies that request processing will continue in case of an error, whereas
"on-error-exit" clause specifies that it will exit. This setting overrides database-level db-error for
this specific statement only. If you use "on-error-continue", be sure to check the error code.
Note that if database connection was lost, and could not be reestablished, the request will error out
(see error-handling).
EXAMPLES
begin-transaction @mydb
run-query @mydb="insert into employee (name, dateOfHire) values ('Terry', now())"
run-query @mydb="insert into payroll (name, salary) values ('Terry', 100000)"
commit-transaction @mydb
