Check if two values exists and return named boolean












0














I am trying to check if two values exists in a table, for example pseudo and email: If a user wants to signup on my website, I have to check if his pseudo and email are already taken.



So this is what I do:



"SELECT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE pseudo=$1) 
UNION ALL
SELECT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE mail=$2)", pseudo, email


("pseudo, email" at the end is because I use Golang and those are the variable that are passed in the statement)



It works, and return "false false" for example. But I would like it to return like this:



pseudo: false
email: false


But I don't know how to name the boolean that returns. I have tried this:



"SELECT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE pseudo=$1) AS pseudo
UNION ALL
SELECT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE mail=$2) AS email", pseudo, email


But it gives me an error.



Do you know how I could do that?

          You can get the result in a single row with appropriate column names, e.g.:



          SELECT 
          EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE pseudo=$1) AS pseudo,
          EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE mail=$2) AS mail
