Inheritance	yii\db\Transaction » yii\base\Object
Implements	yii\base\Configurable
Available since version	2.0
Source Code	https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/db/Transaction.php

Transaction represents a DB transaction.

It is usually created by calling yii\db\Connection::beginTransaction().

The following code is a typical example of using transactions (note that some DBMS may not support transactions):

$transaction = $connection->beginTransaction();
try {
    $connection->createCommand($sql1)->execute();
    $connection->createCommand($sql2)->execute();
    //.... other SQL executions
    $transaction->commit();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    $transaction->rollBack();
    throw $e;
} catch (\Throwable $e) {
    $transaction->rollBack();
    throw $e;
}

Note: in the above code we have two catch-blocks for compatibility with PHP 5.x and PHP 7.x. \Exception implements the \Throwable interface since PHP 7.0, so you can skip the part with \Exception if your app uses only PHP 7.0 and higher.

Property Details

$db public property

The database connection that this transaction is associated with.

public yii\db\Connection $db = null

$isActive public read-only property

Whether this transaction is active. Only an active transaction can commit() or rollBack().

public boolean getIsActive ( )

$isolationLevel public write-only property

The transaction isolation level to use for this transaction. This can be one of READ_UNCOMMITTED, READ_COMMITTED, REPEATABLE_READ and SERIALIZABLE but also a string containing DBMS specific syntax to be used after SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL.

public void setIsolationLevel ( $level )

$level public read-only property

The current nesting level of the transaction.

public integer getLevel ( )

Method Details

begin() public method

Begins a transaction.

public void begin ( $isolationLevel = null )
$isolationLevel	string\|null	The isolation level to use for this transaction. This can be one of READ_UNCOMMITTED, READ_COMMITTED, REPEATABLE_READ and SERIALIZABLE but also a string containing DBMS specific syntax to be used after `SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL`. If not specified (`null`) the isolation level will not be set explicitly and the DBMS default will be used. Note: This setting does not work for PostgreSQL, where setting the isolation level before the transaction has no effect. You have to call setIsolationLevel() in this case after the transaction has started. Note: Some DBMS allow setting of the isolation level only for the whole connection so subsequent transactions may get the same isolation level even if you did not specify any. When using this feature you may need to set the isolation level for all transactions explicitly to avoid conflicting settings. At the time of this writing affected DBMS are MSSQL and SQLite.
throws	yii\base\InvalidConfigException	if $db is `null`.

commit() public method

Commits a transaction.

public void commit ( )
throws	yii\db\Exception	if the transaction is not active

getIsActive() public method

Returns a value indicating whether this transaction is active.

public boolean getIsActive ( )
return	boolean	Whether this transaction is active. Only an active transaction can commit() or rollBack().

getLevel() public method (available since version 2.0.8)

public integer getLevel ( )
return	integer	The current nesting level of the transaction.

rollBack() public method

Rolls back a transaction.

public void rollBack ( )
throws	yii\db\Exception	if the transaction is not active

setIsolationLevel() public method

Sets the transaction isolation level for this transaction.

This method can be used to set the isolation level while the transaction is already active. However this is not supported by all DBMS so you might rather specify the isolation level directly when calling begin().

public void setIsolationLevel ( $level )
$level	string	The transaction isolation level to use for this transaction. This can be one of READ_UNCOMMITTED, READ_COMMITTED, REPEATABLE_READ and SERIALIZABLE but also a string containing DBMS specific syntax to be used after `SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL`.
throws	yii\db\Exception	if the transaction is not active
