$result = $mysqli->query("SELECT @@autocommit");

try {
/* Prepare insert statement */

$stmt->execute();

$native_speakers = 5_222_444;
$stmt->execute();

/* Setting autocommit=true will trigger a commit */
$mysqli->autocommit(true);

print
"Committed 2 row in the database\n";
} catch (
mysqli_sql_exception $exception) {
$mysqli->rollback();

throw
$exception;
}

Procedural style

<?php

/* Tell mysqli to throw an exception if an error occurs */

$mysqli = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");

/* The table engine has to support transactions */
mysqli_query($mysqli, "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS language (

Speakers int(11) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;"
);

/* Turn autocommit off */
mysqli_autocommit($mysqli, false);

$result = mysqli_query($mysqli, "SELECT @@autocommit");
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
printf("Autocommit is %s\n", $row[0]);

try {
/* Prepare insert statement */
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($mysqli, 'INSERT INTO language(Code, Speakers) VALUES (?,?)');
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 'ss', $language_code, $native_speakers);

/* Insert some values */
$language_code = 'DE';
$native_speakers = 50_123_456;
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
$language_code = 'FR';
$native_speakers = 40_546_321;
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);

/* Commit the data in the database. This doesn't set autocommit=true */
mysqli_commit($mysqli);
print
"Committed 2 rows in the database\n";

$result = mysqli_query($mysqli, "SELECT @@autocommit");
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
printf("Autocommit is %s\n", $row[0]);

/* Try to insert more values */
$language_code = 'PL';
$native_speakers = 30_555_444;
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
$language_code = 'DK';
$native_speakers = 5_222_444;
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);

/* Setting autocommit=true will trigger a commit */
mysqli_autocommit($mysqli, true);

print
"Committed 2 row in the database\n";
} catch (
mysqli_sql_exception $exception) {
mysqli_rollback($mysqli);

throw
$exception;
}

The above examples will output:

Autocommit is 0
Committed 2 rows in the database
Autocommit is 0
Committed 2 row in the database
Autocommit is 0
Committed 2 rows in the database
