Re: retrieve subset of a jsonb object with a list of keys

thanks.  I hope a new function can be added(with high perf C function) in new release to allow something like

json_subset(jsonb_object, [key1,key2])

Hi,

I came up with this:

select json_object_agg(key, value)
  from jsonb_each_text('{"a": 1, "b":2, "c":3}'::jsonb)
  where key in ('a', 'c');

IDK if there is a shorter way. You might want to wrap this in a function.

Bye,
Chris.
