TRANSACTION(7) PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation START TRANSACTION(7) NAME
START_TRANSACTION - start a transaction block SYNOPSIS
START TRANSACTION [ transaction_mode [, ...] ] where transaction_mode is one of: ISOLATION LEVEL { SERIALIZABLE | REPEATABLE READ | READ COMMITTED | READ UNCOMMITTED } READ WRITE | READ ONLY [ NOT ] DEFERRABLE DESCRIPTION
This command begins a new transaction block. If the isolation level, read/write mode, or deferrable mode is specified, the new transaction has those characteristics, as if SET TRANSACTION (SET_TRANSACTION(7)) was executed. This is the same as the BEGIN(7) command. PARAMETERS
Refer to SET TRANSACTION (SET_TRANSACTION(7)) for information on the meaning of the parameters to this statement. COMPATIBILITY
In the standard, it is not necessary to issue START TRANSACTION to start a transaction block: any SQL command implicitly begins a block. PostgreSQL's behavior can be seen as implicitly issuing a COMMIT after each command that does not follow START TRANSACTION (or BEGIN), and it is therefore often called "autocommit". Other relational database systems might offer an autocommit feature as a convenience. The DEFERRABLE transaction_mode is a PostgreSQL language extension. The SQL standard requires commas between successive transaction_modes, but for historical reasons PostgreSQL allows the commas to be omitted. See also the compatibility section of SET TRANSACTION (SET_TRANSACTION(7)). SEE ALSO
