What would be the appropriate way to query products with a specific property in

  • 0

What would be the appropriate way to query products with a specific property in the following database design with a one-to-many approach?

I guess that I should be doing something like the following:
SELECT (*) FROM productProperties WHERE property = 'weight' AND value = '10'

But what if I need to products that has both weight = 10 & color = blue in the same query?

Example of database design:

table: products

------------------------
id    | name     |  price
------------------------
0     | myName   |  100
1     | myName2  |  200

table: productProperties

------------------------------------------------
product  | property     |  Value
------------------------------------------------
0        | weight       |  10
1        | weight       |  20
1        | color        |  blue

    What if I need to products that has
    both weight = 10 & color = blue in the
    same query?

    One option:

    select product, name
      from products inner join productProperties
        on (products.id = productProperties.product)
     where (property = 'weight' and value = '10')
        or (property = 'color' and value = 'blue')
     group by product, name
    having count(1) = 2
    

    Another option with subqueries:

    select id, name
      from products p
     where exists (
             select 1
               from productProperties pp1
              where p.id = pp1.product 
                and pp1.property = 'weight'
                and value = '10'
           )
       and exists (
             select 1
               from productProperties pp2
              where p.id = pp2.product 
                and pp2.property = 'color'
                and value = 'blue'
           )
