Hi, please excuse either my stupidity or naivety regarding this but I'm
a bit confused. Give the following basic table structure :
TABLE Data (
ID INT NOT NULL,
Markers jsonb NOT NULL
);
And the following data:
INSERT INTO Data (ID, Markers) VALUES(1, '[ {"idle": true, "items": 8,
"done": 0}, {"idle": true, "items": 8, "done": 0}]') ;
Prerequisite:
CREATE TYPE myrowtype AS (idle bool, items int, done int);
Couple examples:
How can I extract the value of the 'items' key either as two rows
SELECT (jsonb_populate_recordset(NULL::myrowtype, Markers)).items
FROM Data WHERE (ID = X);
and or a sum of both.
SELECT sum(items) FROM(
SELECT (jsonb_populate_recordset(NULL::myrowtype, Markers)).items
FROM Data WHERE (ID = X)
)AS t;
You should use a proper function "jsonb_populate_recordset" [1].

Hello Vitaly,
