deep filtering json/jsonb data

https://docs.hasura.io/1.0/graphql/manual/api-reference/graphql-api/query.html#simple-object

The documentation seems to missing information or I am going about it the wrong way… probably the later 😃

I have a table with “id” and “data” being jsonb.

I cant see how to query for “order_id”

{
  tasks(where: {data: { ? }}) { // "order_id" _eq: 123456
    data
  }
}

Also how do I return all the task names?

Is it also necessary to do data(path: "") for every single field I want? Seems rather repetitive.

{
  tasks {
    order_id: data(path: "order_id")
    tasks_names: data(path: "tasks.name") // fails NULL
    tasks_names1: data(path: "tasks[*].name") // fails
  }
}

Below is the data structure.

{
  "data": {
    "tasks": [
      {
        "data": {
          "owner": "me",
          "tasks": [
            {
              "name": "task 1",
              "actioned": "yes"
            },
            {
              "name": "task 2",
              "actioned": "no"
            },
            {
              "name": "task 3",
              "actioned": "yes"
            }
          ],
          "order_id": 123456
        }
      },
      {
        "data": {
          "owner": "me",
          "tasks": [
            {
              "name": "task 1",
              "actioned": "no"
            },
            {
              "name": "task 2",
              "actioned": "no"
            },
            {
              "name": "task 3",
              "actioned": "no"
            }
          ],
          "order_id": 654321
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

postgres 12 added jsonpath, which gives postgres solid NoSQL capabilities. You can even index the json like a boss: for example "rooms.*.id" “JSON/B” is a first-class citizen in Postgres now.

Adding support for “jsonpath” as a filter option would be great!

Any plan in roadmap about support json path in query?
