Desarrollé para esto usarlo en psql .Para verificar el código, creo una vista pequeña t1 :
CREATE VIEW t1 AS (
SELECT 1 AS id, '{"brother": {"first_name":"Sam", "last_name":"Smith"}, "sister": {"first_name":"Sally", "last_name":"Smith"}}'::jsonb AS jsonb
UNION SELECT 2, '{"sister": {"first_name":"Jill", "last_name":"Johnson"}}'
UNION SELECT 3, '{"sister": {"first_name":"Jill", "x_name":"Johnson"}}'
);
La primera tarea es encontrar una lista de posibles claves:
WITH fields AS (
SELECT DISTINCT jff.key
FROM t1,
jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf,
jsonb_each(jf.value) AS jff
)
SELECT * FROM fields;
El resultado es:
key
------------
first_name
last_name
x_name
El siguiente paso es generar consultas:
SELECT 'SELECT id, jf.key as sibling, ' || (
WITH fields AS (
SELECT DISTINCT jff.key
FROM t1,
jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf,
jsonb_each(jf.value) AS jff
)
SELECT string_agg('jf.value->>''' || key || ''' as "' || key || '"', ',' ORDER BY key)
FROM fields
)
|| ' FROM t1, jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf ORDER BY 1, 2, 3;' AS cmd;
Devuelve:
cmd
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SELECT id, jf.key as sibling,jf.value->>'first_name' as "first_name",jf.value->>'last_name' as "last_name",jf.value->>'x_name' as "x_name" FROM t1, jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf ORDER BY 1, 2, 3;
(1 row)
Para establecer el resultado como variable psql, uso gset :
\gset
Después de eso, puede llamar a la consulta:
:cmd
id | sibling | first_name | last_name | x_name
----+---------+------------+-----------+---------
1 | brother | Sam | Smith |
1 | sister | Sally | Smith |
2 | sister | Jill | Johnson |
3 | sister | Jill | | Johnson
(4 rows)
Para ejecutarlo desde lenguajes externos, puede crear una función postgres que devolver el comando SQL:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION build_query(IN tname text, OUT cmd text) AS $sql$
BEGIN
EXECUTE $cmd$
SELECT 'SELECT id, jf.key as sibling, ' || (
WITH fields AS (
SELECT DISTINCT jff.key
FROM t1,
jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf,
jsonb_each(jf.value) AS jff
)
SELECT string_agg('jf.value->>''' || key || ''' as "' || key || '"', ',' ORDER BY key)
FROM fields
)
|| ' FROM $cmd$ || quote_ident(tname) || $cmd$ , jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf ORDER BY 1, 2, 3;'$cmd$ INTO cmd;
RETURN;
END;
$sql$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
SELECT * FROM build_query('t1');
cmd
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SELECT id, jf.key as sibling, jf.value->>'first_name' as "first_name",jf.value->>'last_name' as "last_name",jf.value->>'x_name' as "x_name" FROM t1 , jsonb_each(jsonb) AS jf ORDER BY 1, 2, 3;
(1 row)
