Please note that calling mysqli::commit() will NOT automatically set mysqli::autocommit() back to 'true'.
This means that any queries following mysqli::commit() will be rolled back when your script exits.

If mysqli error reporting is enabled (MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR) and the requested operation fails,
a warning is generated. If, in addition, the mode is set to MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT,
a mysqli_sql_exception is thrown instead.
Hinweis:
Diese Funktion funktioniert nicht mit Tabellentypen, die keine Transaktionen unterstützen (wie MyISAM oder ISAM).

here my opinion abut lorenzo's post:
<?php
//variants combined
$mysqli->autocommit(FALSE);
try{
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity (id) VALUES (100)") or throw new Exception('error!');
// or we can use
if( !$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity (id) VALUES (200)"){
throw new Exception('error!');
}
}catch( Exception $e ){
$mysqli->rollback();
}
$mysqli->commit();
?>This is an example to explain the powerful of the rollback and commit functions.
Let's suppose you want to be sure that all queries have to be executed without errors before writing data on the database.
Here's the code:
<?php
$all_query_ok=true; // our control variable
//we make 4 inserts, the last one generates an error
//if at least one query returns an error we change our control variable
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity (id) VALUES (100)") ? null : $all_query_ok=false;
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity (id) VALUES (200)") ? null : $all_query_ok=false;
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity (id) VALUES (300)") ? null : $all_query_ok=false;
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity (id) VALUES (100)") ? null : $all_query_ok=false; //duplicated PRIMARY KEY VALUE
//now let's test our control variable
$all_query_ok ? $mysqli->commit() : $mysqli->rollback();
$mysqli->close();
?>
hope to be helpful!This is to clarify the Flags parameters and what they mean:
MYSQLI_TRANS_COR_AND_CHAIN:
Appends "AND CHAIN" to mysqli_commit or mysqli_rollback.
MYSQLI_TRANS_COR_AND_NO_CHAIN:
Appends "AND NO CHAIN" to mysqli_commit or mysqli_rollback.
MYSQLI_TRANS_COR_RELEASE:
Appends "RELEASE" to mysqli_commit or mysqli_rollback.
MYSQLI_TRANS_COR_NO_RELEASE:
Appends "NO RELEASE" to mysqli_commit or mysqli_rollback.
To clarify those options:
The AND CHAIN clause causes a new transaction to begin as soon as the current one ends, and the new transaction has the same isolation level as the just-terminated transaction.
The RELEASE clause causes the server to disconnect the current client session after terminating the current transaction.When you have alot of transactions to make, say you are applying inserting items to the database from a loop, it will be better to use the mysqli_commit for this kind of process as it will only hit the database once.
//Wrong way
Example 1:
$con = mysqli_connect("host", "username", "password", "database") or die("Could not establish connection to database");
$users = ["chris", "james", "peter", "mark", "joe", "alice", "bob"]
for($i=0; $i<count($users); $i++){
$user= $users[$i];
$query = mysqli_query($con, "INSERT INTO users (username) VALUES ('$user') ");
}
//Correct Way
Example 2
$con = mysqli_connect("host", "username", "password", "database") or die("Could not establish connection to database");
$users = ["chris", "james", "peter", "mark", "joe", "alice", "bob"]
//Turn off autocommit
mysqli_autocommit($con, FALSE)
//Make some transactions
for($i=0; $i<count($users); $i++){
$user= $users[$i];
$query = mysqli_query($con, "INSERT INTO users (username) VALUES ('$user') ");
}
//Make a one-time hit to the database
mysqli_commit($con)
As with the Example 1, since we had 7 items in the list, this means that their will be a 7 times hit to our database which can really affect performance. But with the Example 2, since we already turned off autocommit this means that the transactions will be queued ontill will explicitly call mysqli_commit($con)
