Joins with overlapping column names, nested results

@brianc https://github.com/felixge/node-mysql/#joins-with-overlapping-column-names It is possible to have a similar functionality in node-postgres? For example:

var config = {
  text: '...',
  values: ['...'],
  nestTables: true
};
client.query(config, function(res) {
  res.rows[0].tableA.id;
  res.rows[0].tableB.id;
});

@brianc A friend and I played around with postgres, and it actually is possible to have nested tables in pg, for example:

let text = `SELECT to_json(a.*) AS table1, to_json(b.*) AS table2
FROM some_table a
LEFT JOIN another_table b ON a.id = b.id`;
client.query(text, function(res) {
  // ...
});

With this all rows will be structured as such:

{ table1: { ... },
  table2: { ... } }

@brianc thanks mate! Your solution is the only one with 100% benefits!

For fellow googlers, this gives in knex:

return knex
	.select(knex.raw('row_to_json("users__netlify".*) AS "users__netlify", row_to_json("users".*) AS "users"')).from('users')
	.fullOuterJoin('users__netlify', {'users.id': 'users__netlify.user_id'})
	.where('users__netlify.own_id', netlify_id)
	.then(result => {
		console.log('outer join result', result)
	})
