Map JSON to columns and rows in PostgreSQL -
i'm trying map json data columns. need contained in data array. example:
{"data": [ {"stamp":1348249585,"date":"2012-09-21 17:46","blur":"blurs/1.jpg","img":["imgs/1.jpg",[1600,1200]],"thumb":["thumbs/1.jpg",[150,113]]}, {"stamp":1375607177,"date":"2013-08-04 09:06","blur":"blurs/2.jpg","img":["imgs/2.jpg",[1600,1200]],"thumb":["thumbs/2.jpg",[150,113]]}, {"stamp":1376242046,"date":"2013-08-11 17:27","blur":"blurs/3.jpg","img":["imgs/3.jpg",[1600,1200]],"thumb":["thumbs/3.jpg",[150,113]]}, ... currently, using #>> operator dynamically generated condition:
1) calculate number of elements in data array
2) create varchar array condition match every "row"
3) process elements on individual rows.
my solution is:
select json_row, json_row#>>'{stamp}' stamp, json_row#>>'{date}' date, json_row#>>'{img,0}' img, json_row#>>'{img,1,0}' img_width, json_row#>>'{img,1,1}' img_height, json_row#>>'{thumb,0}' thumb, json_row#>>'{thumb,1,0}' thumb_width, json_row#>>'{thumb,1,1}' thumb_height, json_row#>>'{thumb,2,0}' th_x1, json_row#>>'{thumb,2,1}' th_y1, json_row#>>'{thumb,3,0}' th_x2, json_row#>>'{thumb,3,1}' th_y2, json_row#>>'{blur}' ( select (gjson#>>c.cond)::json json_row gallery_json cross join ( select ('{data,'|| generate_series(0, (select json_array_length((gjson#>>'{data}')::json) gallery_json) - 1) || '}')::varchar[] cond) c ) rd this works , can live it. but, given first exercise json in postgresql ask if there better way map similar json structure rows. think supposed use json_populate_recordset, did not succeed far.
sqlfiddle not work currently, sample data:
--drop table if exists gallery_json; create table gallery_json(gjson json); insert gallery_json (gjson) select '{"data":[ {"stamp":1348249585,"date":"2012-09-21 17:46","blur":"blurs/1.jpg","img":["imgs/1.jpg",[1600,1200]],"thumb":["thumbs/1.jpg",[150,113]]}, {"stamp":1376659268,"date":"2013-08-16 13:21","blur":"blurs/7.jpg","img":["imgs/7.jpg",[1600,539]],"thumb":["thumbs/7.jpg",[267,112],[332,112],[32,0]]}, {"stamp":1376666907,"date":"2013-08-16 15:28","blur":"blurs/8.jpg","img":["imgs/8.jpg",[1600,1200]],"thumb":["thumbs/8.jpg",[150,113]]}, {"stamp":1379016669,"date":"2013-09-12 20:11","blur":"blurs/11.jpg","img":["imgs/11.jpg",[1600,590]],"thumb":["thumbs/11.jpg",[267,112],[304,112],[18,0]]}, {"stamp":1383304027,"date":"2013-11-01 11:07","blur":"blurs/17.jpg","img":["imgs/17.jpg",[1600,1200]],"thumb":["thumbs/17.jpg",[150,113]]}] ,"blur":[600,336],"thumb":{"min":[150,112],"max":[267,200]}}'::json
with data ( select json_array_elements(gjson -> 'data') data gallery_json ) select (data -> 'stamp')::text::bigint stamp, (data -> 'date')::text::timestamp date, (data -> 'blur')::text blur, (data -> 'img' -> 0)::text img, (data -> 'img' -> 1 -> 0)::text::int img_width, (data -> 'img' -> 1 -> 1)::text::int img_height, (data -> 'thumb' -> 0)::text thumb, (data -> 'thumb' -> 1 -> 0)::text::int thumb_width, (data -> 'thumb' -> 1 -> 1)::text::int thumb_height, (data -> 'thumb' -> 2 -> 0)::text::int th_x1, (data -> 'thumb' -> 2 -> 1)::text::int th_y1, (data -> 'thumb' -> 3 -> 0)::text::int th_x2, (data -> 'thumb' -> 3 -> 1)::text::int th_y2 data
