How to get constraints or keys of the existing table?

I have a table "buyers" and need to know all constraints / keys on this table. Is there any query to get this?

You can view this using SHOW INDEX statement which provides list keys already defined on the table. Try below:
 SHOW INDEX FROM buyers;
