Database schema for e-commerce (webstores) sites.

e-commerce-db's Issues

Request: product attributes, example SQL queries

Hi @ramortegui - many thanks for this very useful little project! It's great for noobs and it has certainly helped me out with my personal project.

However, defining data is one thing, querying for it is another. As someone not very familiar with writing complex SQL statements, it would be great if you could include a list of example queries (ranging from the simplest such as select all products from category to more complex such as a hierarchical category list and so on).

Another thing that I think is missing from the DB is product attributes, such as: colour, size, etc. These could be stored in two new tables, pretty much like tags, but with an additional name field. What do you think?

Many thanks for your wonderful work on this project,
John

Insights on the product tables

I was just going through the DDL's provided. Could you give a little insights about the following tables:

1. products
2. product_statuses
3. product_categories
4. product_tags

What is the purpose of these tables? If possible could you give an example??
