how are you?
I needed to store an array of numbers as JSONB in PostgreSQL.
Now I'm trying to calculate stats moments from this JSON, I'm facing some issues.
Sample of my data:
I already was able to convert a JSON into a float array.
I used a function to convert jsonb to float array.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION jsonb_array_castdouble(jsonb) RETURNS float[] AS $f$
SELECT array_agg(x)::float[] || ARRAY[]::float[] FROM jsonb_array_elements_text($1) t(x);
$f$ LANGUAGE sql IMMUTABLE;
Using this SQL:
with data as (
select
s.id as id,
jsonb_array_castdouble(s.snx_normalized) as serie
FROM
spectra s
)
select * from data;
I found a function that can do these calculations and I need to pass an array for that: https://github.com/ellisonch/PostgreSQL-Stats-Aggregate/
But this function requires an array in another way: unnested
I already tried to use unnest, but it will get only one value, not the entire array :(.
My goal is:
Be able to apply stats moment (kurtosis, skewness) for each row.
like:
index
skewness
1
21.2131
2
1.123
Bonus: There is a way to not use this 'with data', use the transformation in the select statement?
snx_wavelengths is JSON, right? And also you provided it as a picture and not text :( the data looks like (id, snx_wavelengths) - I believe you meant id saying index (not a good idea to use a keyword, would require identifier doublequotes):
1,[1,2,3,4]
2,[373,232,435,84]
If that is right:
select id, (stats_agg(v::float)).skewness
from myMeasures,
lateral json_array_elements_text(snx_wavelengths) v
group by id;
DBFiddle demo
BTW, you don't need "with data" in the original sample if you don't want to use and could replace with a subquery. ie:
select (stats_agg(n)).* from (select unnest(array[16,22,33,24,15])) data(n)
union all
select (stats_agg(n)).* from (select unnest(array[416,622,833,224,215])) data(n);
EDIT: And if you needed other stats too:
select id, "count","min","max","mean","variance","skewness","kurtosis"
from myMeasures,
lateral (select (stats_agg(v::float)).* from json_array_elements_text(snx_wavelengths) v) foo
group by id,"count","min","max","mean","variance","skewness","kurtosis";

I'm using postgresql 11, I have a jsonb which represent a row of that table, it's look like
{"userid":"test","rolename":"Root","loginerror":0,"email":"superadmin#ae.com",...,"thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}
is there any method that I could gather all the "values" of the jsonb into a string which is separated by ',' and without the keys?
The string I want to obtain with the jsonb above is like
(test, Root, 0, superadmin#ae.com, ..., {})
I need to keep the ORDER of those values as what their keys were in the jsonb. Could I do that with postgresql?
You can use the jsonb_populate_record function (assuming your json data does match the users table). This will force the text value to match the order of your users table:
Schema (PostgreSQL v13)
CREATE TABLE users (
userid text,
rolename text,
loginerror int,
email text,
thirdpartyauthenticationkey json
)
Query #1
WITH d(js) AS (
VALUES
('{"userid":"test", "rolename":"Root", "loginerror":0, "email":"superadmin#ae.com", "thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}'::jsonb),
('{"userid":"other", "rolename":"User", "loginerror":324, "email":"nope#ae.com", "thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}'::jsonb)
)
SELECT jsonb_populate_record(null::users, js),
jsonb_populate_record(null::users, js)::text AS record_as_text,
pg_typeof(jsonb_populate_record(null::users, js)::text)
FROM d
;
jsonb_populate_record
record_as_text
pg_typeof
(test,Root,0,superadmin#ae.com,{})
(test,Root,0,superadmin#ae.com,{})
text
(other,User,324,nope#ae.com,{})
(other,User,324,nope#ae.com,{})
text
Note that if you're building this string to insert it back into postgresql then you don't need to do that, since the result of jsonb_populate_record will match your table:
Query #2
WITH d(js) AS (
VALUES
('{"userid":"test", "rolename":"Root", "loginerror":0, "email":"superadmin#ae.com", "thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}'::jsonb),
('{"userid":"other", "rolename":"User", "loginerror":324, "email":"nope#ae.com", "thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}'::jsonb)
)
INSERT INTO users
SELECT (jsonb_populate_record(null::users, js)).*
FROM d;
There are no results to be displayed.
Query #3
SELECT * FROM users;
userid
rolename
loginerror
email
thirdpartyauthenticationkey
test
Root
0
superadmin#ae.com
[object Object]
other
User
324
nope#ae.com
[object Object]

You can use jsonb_each_text() to get a set of a text representation of the elements, string_agg() to aggregate them in a comma separated string and concat() to put that in parenthesis.
SELECT concat('(', string_agg(value, ', '), ')')
FROM jsonb_each_text('{"userid":"test","rolename":"Root","loginerror":0,"email":"superadmin#ae.com","thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}'::jsonb) jet (key,
value);

You didn't provide DDL and DML of a (the) table the JSON may reside in (if it does, that isn't clear from your question). The demonstration above therefore only uses the JSON you showed as a scalar. If you have indeed a table you need to CROSS JOIN LATERAL and GROUP BY some key.
Edit:
If you need to be sure the order is retained and you don't have that defined in a table's structure as #Marth's answer assumes, then you can of course extract every value manually in the order you need them.
SELECT concat('(',
concat_ws(', ',
j->>'userid',
j->>'rolename',
j->>'loginerror',
j->>'email',
j->>'thirdpartyauthenticationkey'),
')')
FROM (VALUES ('{"userid":"test","rolename":"Root","loginerror":0,"email":"superadmin#ae.com","thirdpartyauthenticationkey":{}}'::jsonb)) v (j);

I have a details table with adeet column defined as jsonb[]
a sample value stored in adeet column is as below image
Sample data stored in DB :
I want to return the rows which satisfies id=26088 i.e row 1 and 3
I have tried array operations and json operations but it does'nt work as required. Any pointers
Obviously the type of the column adeet is not of type JSON/JSONB, but maybe VARCHAR and we should fix the format so as to convert into a JSONB type. I used replace() and r/ltrim() funcitons for this conversion, and preferred to derive an array in order to use jsonb_array_elements() function :
WITH t(jobid,adeet) AS
(
SELECT jobid, replace(replace(replace(adeet,'\',''),'"{','{'),'}"','}')
FROM tab
), t2 AS
(
SELECT jobid, ('['||rtrim(ltrim(adeet,'{'), '}')||']')::jsonb as adeet
FROM t
)
SELECT t.*
FROM t2 t
CROSS JOIN jsonb_array_elements(adeet) j
WHERE (j.value ->> 'id')::int = 26088
Demo
You want to combine JSONB's <# operator with the generic-array ANY construct.
select * from foobar where '{"id":26088}' <# ANY (adeet);
I have column options with type jsonb , in format {"names": ["name1", "name2"]} which was created with
UPDATE table1 t1 SET options = (SELECT jsonb_build_object('names', names) FROM table2 t2 WHERE t2.id= t1.id)
and where names have type jsonb array.
SELECT jsonb_typeof(names) FROM table2 give array
Now I want to extract value of names as jsonb array. But query
SELECT jsonb_build_array(options->>'names') FROM table
gave me ["[\"name1\", \"name2\"]"], while I expect ["name1", "name2"]
How can I get value in right format?
The ->> operator will return the value of the field (in your case, a JSON array) as a properly escaped text. What you are looking for is the -> operator instead.
However, note that using the jsonb_build_array on that will return an array containing your original array, which is probably not what you want either; simply using options->'names' should get you what you want.
Actually, you don't need to use jsonb_build_array() function.
Use select options -> 'names' from table; This will fix your issue.
jsonb_build_array() is for generating the array from jsonb object. You are following wrong way. That's why you are getting string like this ["[\"name1\", \"name2\"]"].
Try to execute this sample SQL script:
select j->'names'
from (
select '{"names": ["name1", "name2"]}'::JSONB as j
) as a;
I store some data as JSON.
I want to flatten the data using jsonb_each.
The new column type is RECORD, but I don't how extract values from it.
SELECT T FROM (
SELECT json_each_text(skills::json->'prizes') FROM users) AS T;
The output is
jsonb_each

The type is RECORD.
pg_typeof

I want to do an aggregate and GROUPBY, but I cannot figure out how to extract the first element(the string) and the second element (the value).
Here is a workaround I have found: JSON -> ROW -> JSON -> (string, integer) and then aggregate. But I am wondering if there is a shortcut and skip the ROW->JSON conversion.
SELECT U.key, AVG(U.value::int) FROM
(SELECT row_to_json(T)->'s'->>'key' AS key,
row_to_json(T)->'s'->>'value' AS value
FROM
(SELECT jsonb_each(skills::jsonb->'prizes') AS s
FROM users) AS T
) AS U
GROUP BY key;
Thanks a lot, #Arnaud, this seems like a not-very-common problem. I wasn't sure about json data structure after using row_to_json function, so I needed to validate that via:
SELECT row_to_json(T) FROM
(SELECT jsonb_each((data->'app_metadata'->>'results')::jsonb)
FROM temp) AS T;
And once I got the keys structure, I could replicate your approach:
SELECT row_to_json(T)->'jsonb_each'->>'key' as key, row_to_json(T)->'jsonb_each'->>'value' as value
FROM (select jsonb_each((data->'app_metadata'->>'results')::jsonb) FROM temp) AS T
How would I write the following query using SQLAlchemy's ORM?
SELECT filename, (stats).*
FROM (
SELECT filename, ST_SummaryStats(rast, 1, TRUE) AS stats FROM tiles
) AS stats_table;
Here, ST_SummaryStats is a PostGIS function that returns the record that I wish to unpack. tiles is a PostGIS table with filename and rast (raster) columns. My attempt is as follows:
sub_q = db_session.query(
Tiles.filename,
func.ST_SummaryStats(Tiles.rast, 1, True).label('stats'),
).subquery()
q = db_session.query(
sub_q.columns.filename,
sub_q.columns.stats,
)
However, I don't know how to write the (stats).* expression -- and hence unpack the record -- with SQLAlchemy's ORM. Consequently, stats appears to be a tuple.
Thanks in advance for any help.
ST_SummaryStats() returns a record, so rather than use it as a SELECT expression (which would return the record), use it as a FROM clause and pick the desired statistics at the SELECT level, so it becomes very simply:
SELECT filename, count, sum, mean, stddev, min, max
FROM tiles, ST_SummaryStats(tiles.rast, 1, true);
This results in a so-called LATERAL JOIN and since ST_SummaryStats() returns only a single row for the indicated raster in tiles you do not need a join condition, filter or anything else.
I am not sure about SQLAlchemy's ability to use the result of a function as a class, but a sure-fire way of making this work is to wrap the above SELECT into a VIEW and then access the view from SQLAlchemy:
CREATE VIEW raster_stats AS
SELECT filename, count, sum, mean, stddev, min, max
FROM tiles, ST_SummaryStats(tiles.rast, 1, true);
