Triggering rollback manually-what methods should i use?

hi

Q1. If I want to manually trigger a DB transaction roleback
progrmatically what approach/methods should I use?

Q2. Also if in the transactions I use multiple models, should I start
the transaction by (a) choosing one of the models & going
.transaction do, or (b) use some other generic DB transaction
method (ie no model namc)?

REQUIREMENTS:

  • upload of records from file
  • want to try each one re loading into DB, then collect errors in
    array for those that fail
  • then at end want to:
    (a) roll back everything , but also
    (b) overall method should NOT raise exception (ie why I want to
    trigger rollback without relying on an exception to do this

thanks

If it’s straight mysql it’s something like
execute(“BEGIN”)
execute(“ROLLBACK”)

If it’s rails then I know raising causes one, not sure of others.
Cheers!
