Re: Partial index on JSON column

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So, I checked my original code, and I didn't add `::text`, it was actually added by Postgres:

EXPLAIN for: SELECT "user_event".* FROM "user_event" WHERE "user_event"."what" = $1 AND (((parameters ->> 'suggestion_id')::integer) = 119 AND ((parameters ->> 'suggestion_id') IS NOT NULL)) [["what", "suggestion_notification"]]
                                                           QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using index_user_event_for_suggestion_notification on user_event  (cost=0.42..77193.95 rows=20669 width=138)
   Index Cond: ((((parameters ->> 'suggestion_id'::text))::integer = 119) AND ((what)::text = 'suggestion_notification'::text))
(2 rows)

Is there some way to directly use the integer value in the index with minimal type coercions?

Thanks
Samuel

Thanks for the quick reply Tom,

I will try your advice.

The reason why I used ::integer for the INDEX is because I assumed it would be more efficient both in space and performance.

In the JSONB field, it is actually an integer, i.e. {"location_age": 1, "suggestion_id": 26}

So, now that I think about it, maybe the way I'm using ::text is wrong.

Any further advice is most appreciated.

Kind regards,
Samuel

Try it like

EXPLAIN SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "user_event" WHERE ((parameters ->>
'suggestion_id'::text) = '26') AND what = 'suggestion_notification';

I don't think we assume that CoerceViaIO is strict, and without that
the deduction that the value couldn't be null doesn't hold.  In any
case you're better off without the runtime type conversion: that
isn't doing much for you except raising the odds of getting an error.
