SQLite transactions and virtual tables

In my previous post I introduced SQL virtual tables and how to use them in Go—registering modules per connection, defining schemas, and querying external sources as regular tables. Now let’s dive into more advanced virtual-table implementations: those that support writes and full transactional behavior.

But true transactional integrity requires more than just row-level updates—it requires hooks for transaction boundaries: xBegin : Signal the start of a transaction. : Signal the start of a transaction. xSync : Prepare work for a durable commit; failures here abort everything. : Prepare work for a durable commit; failures here abort everything. xCommit : Finalize the transaction (cleanup only). : Finalize the transaction (cleanup only). xRollback : Revert changes if the transaction is aborted.
