If have following problem. I cannot get values from MySQL when I have them separated with |
I have following string:
SELECT * FROM user WHERE CONCAT(',', category, ',') REGEXP ',(lc_8|swimming),'
and this string only works when in my MySQL I have column category
with value lc_8,swimming,
How I can change string above to get same values but if in column I have lc_8|swimming|
?

is a special character in regexps. You would need to escape it, like \\|
. Try:
SELECT * FROM user WHERE CONCAT(',', category, ',') REGEXP ',(lc_8\|swimming),'
Characters that need escaping in regexes are as follows:
* ? + [ ( ) { } ^ $ | \
If you really want to match the parentheses in your example, you would need to quote them as well.
(
and |
have a special meaning in a regular expression, you need to escape them.
SELECT *
FROM user
WHERE CONCAT(',', REPLACE(category, '|', '\\|'), ',') REGEXP ',\(lc_8\|swimming\),'
But if you're searching a comma-delimited list, it would be better to use the function designed for that:
SELECT * FROM user
WHERE FIND_IN_SET('(lc_8|swimming)', category)
Even better would be to not store comma-delimited lists in the first place, but put the categories in a separate table with one row for each category.
