List table check constraints in MariaDB database

The query below lists table check constraints.

Notes

Before MariaDB 10.2.1 constraint expressions were accepted in the syntax but ignored. With MariaDB 10.2.1 comes check constraint support, but until MariaDB 10.3.10 and MariaDB 10.2.22 there was no possibility to obtain details.

If you are using one of these two versions check this query
