mysql-json

I have a json field that stores a list of ids (not best practice here I know), I want to know if it's possible to use do operations on this JSON field and use them in the sql. Below is a fictitious example of what I'm trying to achieve, is something like this doable? CREATE TABLE user ( user_id INT, user_name VARCHAR(50), user_groups JSON ); CREATE TABLE user_group ( user_group_id INT, group_name VARCHAR(50) ); INSERT INTO user_group (user_group_id, group_name) VALUES (1, 'Group A'); INSERT INTO user_group (user_group_id, group_name) VALUES (2, 'Group B'); INSERT INTO user_group (user_group_id

What are the advantages and disadvantages of storing JSON data in MySQL database vs. serialized array? JSON encode () & decode () PHP Version >= 5.0.0 Nesting Limit of 20. PHP Version >= 5.2.3 Nesting Limit of 128. PHP Version >= 5.3.0 Nesting Limit of 512. Small footprint vs PHP's serialize'd string. serialize () & unserialize () PHP Version >= 4.0.0 Methods are not lost on PHP Datatype Object. __wakeup() magic method called on any object being unserialize. (VERY POWERFUL) It has been noted that it is some times best the base64 encode strings put into the database, and base64 decode strings

I am inserting my data in a database with json_encoded . Now I want to search in "feature", but I can't. MySQL query: SELECT `id` , `attribs_json` FROM `products` WHERE `attribs_json` REGEXP '"1":{"value":[^"3"$]' This query shows me all rows with key "1" and value is any thing not value is "3" My data is: {"feature":{"1":{"value":"["2","3"]"}, "2":{"value":["1"]}, "5":{"value":""}, "3":{"value":["1"]}, "9":{"value":""}, "4":{"value":"\u0633\u0627\u062a\u0646"}, "6":{"value":""}, "7":{"value":""}, "8":{"value":""} }, "show_counter":"0", "show_counter_discount":"" }} Sachin Vairagi If you have
