That's a bit unclear.
What do you mean by "outside a function but in a script"?
Can you explain in more detail?
The code sample you paste looks like PL/pgSQL.
You cannot commit or roll back in PL/pgSQL.
If you want to undo in case of error whatever happens in the block,
just replace the ROLLBACK with NOOP.
