The isAutocommit() method in the LibSQL PHP Extension checks whether autocommit mode is enabled for the current LibSQL connection. Autocommit mode automatically commits each SQL statement as a separate transaction, ensuring that changes made by each statement are immediately applied to the database.

Method Signature

public function isAutocommit(): bool

Parameters

This method does not accept any parameters.

Return Value

  • bool: Returns true if autocommit mode is enabled for the connection, otherwise returns false.

Example

// Create a new LibSQL instance
$db = new LibSQL("database.db");

// Check if autocommit mode is enabled
if ($db->isAutocommit()) {
    echo "Autocommit mode is enabled.";
} else {
    echo "Autocommit mode is disabled.";
}

Notes

  • By default, autocommit mode is usually enabled for LibSQL connections.
  • When autocommit mode is disabled, multiple SQL statements can be grouped into a single transaction using the transaction() method, allowing for more complex operations that require atomicity and consistency across multiple statements.
  • It is important to understand the implications of enabling or disabling autocommit mode, as it can affect the behavior and performance of database operations.
