mapping
id_a | id_b 
--------------

mapping.id_a and mapping.id_b have foreign key references to item.id

I need to find if association exists between id_a and id_b in mapping table for a given input 'name' and 'group' using gino sqlalchemy.

Example:

  1. for input '/foo/', '/foo/1', 'app1' --> match success.
  2. for input '/bar/2', '/foo/abc/def', 'app1' --> match success.
  3. for input '/foo3/', '/bar3/', 'app2' --> match fails.

That would be trivial with a join:

SELECT TRUE
FROM items AS i1
   JOIN mapping AS m ON i1.id = m.id_a
   JOIN items AS i2 ON m.id_b = i2.id
WHERE i1.name = '/foo/'
  AND i2.name = '/foo/1' AND i2.group = 'app1';

If this returns a row, there is a match.

For good performance, create these tow indexes (if they don't already exist):

CREATE INDEX ON item (name, group);
CREATE INDEX ON mapping (id_b);

Then you should get an efficient nested loop join.
