technically, there is not a php function in postgesql like that function. you
can write a query to provide that information based on the sequence that you are
using.
select currval('sequence_name');
that will return the last value used. however, there is not a php function that
will provide the functionality that mysqli_insert_id() does.
here is some additional info on it:
