mysql 的唯一索引要求所有参与的列都不能够为 null 值,如果唯一索引中的任何一个元素含有 null 值,则唯一约束将不起作用。
示例代码
create table tb (
a int,
b int,
c int,
unique index (a,b,c)
);
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (null,null,null); -- ok
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (null,null,null); -- still ok
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (null,null,null); -- still ok
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (1,null,null); -- ok
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (1,2,null); -- ok
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (1,2,3); -- ok
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (1,null,null); -- SHOULD FAIL, BUT DOESN'T
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (1,2,null); -- SHOULD FAIL, BUT DOESN'T
insert into tb(a,b,c) values (1,2,3); -- fails correctly
解决方案
给参与唯一索引的字段设置缺省值,如果是数值可以统一设置为 -1,如果是字符串可以设置为 ""
官网的描述
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/create-index.html
A UNIQUE index creates a constraint such that all values in the index must be distinct. An error occurs if you try to add a new row with a key value that matches an existing row. For all engines, a UNIQUE index permits multiple NULL values for columns that can contain NULL. If you specify a prefix value for a column in a UNIQUE index, the column values must be unique within the prefix.
