Here is a WIP patch for enhancements to json generation.
First, there is the much_requested json_agg, which will aggregate rows
directly to json. So the following will now work:
select json_agg(my_table) from mytable;
select json_agg(q) from (<myquery here>) q;
One open question regarding this feature is whether this should return
NULL or '[]' for 0 rows. Currently it returns NULL but I could be
convinced to return '[]', and the change would be very small.
Next is to_json(), which will turn any value into json, so we're no
longer restricted to rows and arrays.
Non-builtin types are now searched for a cast to json, and if it
exists it is used instead of the type's text representation. I didn't
add a special type to look for a cast to, as was discussed before, as
it seemed a bit funky and unnecessary. It can easily be added, but I'm
still not convinced it's a good idea. Note that this is only done for
types that aren't builtin - we know how to turn all of those into json
without needing to look for a cast.
Along with this there is an hstore_to_json() function added to the
hstore module, and a cast from hstore to json that uses it. This
function treats every value in the hstore as a string. There is also a
function with the working title of hstore_to_json_loose() that does a
heuristic conversion that treats values of 't' and 'f' as booleans,
and strings that look like numbers as numbers unless they start with a
leading 0 followed by another digit (could be zip codes, phone numbers
etc.) The difference between these is illustrated here (notice that
quoted '"t"' becomes unquoted 'true' and quoted '"1"' becomes '1'):
andrew=# select json_agg(q) from foo q;
json_agg
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[{"a":"a","b":1,"h":{"c": "t", "d": null, "q": "1", "x": "y"}}]
(1 row)
andrew=# select json_agg(q) from (select a, b,
hstore_to_json_loose(h) as h from foo) q;
json_agg
----------------------------------------------------------------
[{"a":"a","b":1,"h":{"c": true, "d": null, "q": 1, "x": "y"}}]
(1 row)
Note: this patch will need a change in the oids used for the new
functions if applied against git tip, as they have been overtaken by
time.
Comments welcome.
Updated patch that works with git tip and has regression tests.
cheers
