outside_transaction?()
public

Checks whether there is currently no transaction active. This is done by querying the database driver, and does not use the transaction house-keeping information recorded by #increment_open_transactions and friends.

Returns true if there is no transaction active, false if there is a transaction active, and nil if this information is unknown.

Not all adapters supports transaction state introspection. Currently, only the PostgreSQL adapter supports this.
