MySQL Where to put in this statement? - php

Question

This is a bit beyond my skills and I had a lot of help from the good people at SO to get this far. What I need now is to put in a MATCH() ... AGAINST() but I don't know where to insert it?
The query I have is (and this is the short version):
SELECT
SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS i.idItems RowCount,
i.* Items,
# Create a JSON formatted field
CONCAT('{',GROUP_CONCAT('"',Attributes.key, '":"', CONVERT(Attributes.value,CHAR),'"'),'}') as Attributes,
IF (te.Key IS NULL,tp.Key,te.Key) as Type,
tc.Value Color,
l.* Location,
c.Name,
c.Mobile,
c.Mail
FROM
(SELECT ItemID, ats.Key, ats.Value FROM attributeStrings as ats
UNION ALL
SELECT ItemID, ati.Key, ati.Value FROM attributeIntegers as ati
) Attributes
JOIN Items i ON
i.idItems = Attributes.ItemID
AND CheckIn >= DATE_SUB('2011-02-16 00:00:00',INTERVAL 90 DAY)
AND CheckIn <= DATE_ADD('2011-02-16 23:59:59',INTERVAL 90 DAY)
AND Checkout IS NULL
LEFT JOIN Customers c ON c.idCustomers = i.CustomerID
LEFT JOIN attributeintegers atli ON atli.itemid = i.idItems AND atli.key = 'Location'
LEFT JOIN locations l ON l.id = atli.value
LEFT JOIN attributestrings atts ON atts.itemid = i.idItems AND atts.key = 'Type' LEFT
JOIN Lists tp ON tp.value = atts.value
LEFT JOIN attributestrings attes ON attes.itemid = i.idItems AND attes.key = 'Tech' LEFT
JOIN Lists te ON te.value = attes.value
LEFT JOIN attributeintegers atci ON atci.itemid = i.idItems AND atci.key = 'Color' LEFT
JOIN Strings tc ON tc.StringID = atci.value
GROUP BY Attributes.ItemID
ORDER BY CheckIn DESC
Now I need to get this statement in here somewhere
MATCH(attributestrings.Value) AGAINST("Nokia" IN BOOLEAN MODE)
As you can see there is a table called attributestrings and it has 3 columns: ItemID,*Key* and Value. I need to search the column Value for the words in the AGAINST() and only show results matching this and the other criterias such as the Date and Checkout above.
I tried to add the statement after the AND Checkout IS NULL like this:
AND Checkout IS NULL
AND MATCH(Attributes.Value) AGAINST("Nokia" IN BOOLEAN MODE)
I had to use the Attributes.Value instead of attributestrings because it didn't found the table. This only resulted in the CONCATENATED column Attributes only contained the value "Nokia", even if there where more to CONCATENATE.
I hope someone are willing to take on this challenge...
// Tank you.
[EDIT]
I tried to put in the WHERE before the GROUP as Tim Fultz sugested, but I get the error
Unknown column 'attributestrings.Value' in 'Where clause'
LEFT JOIN attributeintegers atci ON atci.itemid = i.idItems AND atci.key = 'Color' LEFT JOIN Strings tc ON tc.StringID = atci.value
WHERE MATCH(attributestrings.Value) AGAINST("Nokia Sony" IN BOOLEAN MODE)
GROUP BY Attributes.ItemID

Answer 1

Typically this is put in the Where clause:
WHERE MATCH(attributestrings.Value) AGAINST("Nokia" IN BOOLEAN MODE)

Answer 2

I think I came up with a solution...
I added another:
LEFT JOIN attributestrings fts ON fts.itemid = i.idItems AND MATCH(fts.Value) AGAINST("Nokia Sony" IN BOOLEAN MODE)
Just before the GROUP BY... and then included fts.Value ftsv in the main select statement. Now I could insert a HAVING ftsv IS NOT NULL between GROUP BY... and ORDER BY...
This gave me the result I wanted but the query starts to get a bit slow now...

There is a problem in your query when you are assigning table names with as use every where in you query the name you assigned. Like you gave attributestrings as ats now use ats everywhere and this will work.
