I have two tables: customers_card
and card_info
In the customers_card
table I have two primary keys: id and cid
. In the card_info
table I have 1 primary key: id
. I want to add 2 foreign keys to the card_info
table but I got an error when I try to reference to the card_info.cid
customers_card table
card_info table
CREATE TABLE card_info (
id INT(11) PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
uid INT(11) NOT NULL,
cid VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
number BIGINT NOT NULL,
holder VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
type VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
provider VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
FOREIGN KEY (uid)
REFERENCES customers (id)
ON DELETE CASCADE,
FOREIGN KEY (cid)
REFERENCES customers__card (cid)
ON DELETE CASCADE
);
And the error I get when I try to create the card_info
table:
customers_card
CREATE TABLE `customers_card` (
`id` int NOT NULL,
`uid` int NOT NULL,
`cid` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8mb4_hungarian_ci NOT NULL,
`cardname` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8mb4_hungarian_ci NOT NULL,
`cardnum` int NOT NULL,
`expiry` date NOT NULL,
`cvc` int NOT NULL,
`value` int NOT NULL,
`date` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
ADD PRIMARY KEY (`id`,`cid`),
ADD CONSTRAINT `customers__card_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`uid` REFERENCES `customers` (`id`) ON DELETE CASCADE
)
My summarized question: How can I create a foreign key in the card_info.cid
that references to the customers_card.cid
without making the customers_card.cid
a primary key
?
CodePudding user response:
Don't use two primary keys. Set the id
to UNIQUE
and keep the AUTO_INCREMENT
, and set the primary key
to the cid
, so you can reference to them.
CREATE TABLE `customers_card` (
`id` int UNIQUE AUTO_INCREMENT,
`uid` int NOT NULL,
`cid` varchar(255) PRIMARY KEY,
`cardname` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8mb4_hungarian_ci NOT NULL,
`cardnum` int NOT NULL,
`expiry` date NOT NULL,
`cvc` int NOT NULL,
`value` int NOT NULL,
`date` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
ADD CONSTRAINT `customers__card_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`uid` REFERENCES `customers` (`id`) ON DELETE CASCADE
)
