POSTGRES JSON QUERY CODE
I don't often get to write code so it's easy for me to jump back in. The clear to read/easy to intuit form of language I appreciate, perhaps because I work around a lot of Ruby developers, but personally align more with Python. Using JSON interchangeably, but please in your app mostly use JSONB unlessĮxplicitly meaning the more simplistic JSON text format. While you can index JSON you have to index each path. JSONB also comes with some better indexing ability in JSONB unlike JSON compresses the data down and does not preserve whitespace. Just quickly insert a ton of it (a great example use case for this is recordingĪPI/log input where you may want to play requests). This is quite useful if you don't want to index most of the JSON and want to Thisĭatatype will ensure you insert valid JSON into it, but will store it as text.

JSON still exists within Postgres and if you do:ĬREATE TABLE foo (id serial, mycolumn JSON) You'll get a JSON datatype. Minute, first though it is worth some summary disclaimer on the differenceīetween JSON and JSONB. I'll get into this small but pretty incredible change in Postgres 14 in just a In Postgres 14, the JSONB support is indeed getting way better. My likes to state that the B stands forīetter. Got more proper JSON support with the JSONB datatype. Two years later in 2014 with Postgres 9.4 we I put JSON in quotes because well, 10 years ago when weĪnnounced JSON support we kinda cheated. Let’s create a few tables and use the json type.Nearly 10 years now. The json type also preserves the order of keys, duplicates, and whitespace characters. When we use the data, Postgres has to reparse it on each execution. It stores the exact copy of the text we put in. The first column type we want to look into is json. We would miss on a ton of features that Postgres provides to help us work with JSON. In theory, we can store JSON as a regular string. Fortunately, PostgreSQL has tools to deal with it. Some parts of our schema might be fluid and change frequently, though. Using MongoDB has its pros and cons, and we might still want to use an SQL database instead. With this approach, we can describe any data structures with ease. There are databases like MongoDB that store JSON-like documents. This approach has many benefits, but sometimes, we want some more flexibility, though.Ĭhances are you already know JSON and use it in your web applications. So far, in this series, we’ve used PostgreSQL to store data structured in columns.
