2017-06-21Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

2017-01-17Generate fmgr prototypes automaticallyPeter Eisentraut
Gen_fmgrtab.pl creates a new file fmgrprotos.h, which contains prototypes for all functions registered in pg_proc.h. This avoids having to manually maintain these prototypes across a random variety of header files. It also automatically enforces a correct function signature, and since there are warnings about missing prototypes, it will detect functions that are defined but not registered in pg_proc.h (or otherwise used).

2014-12-12Add json_strip_nulls and jsonb_strip_nulls functions.Andrew Dunstan
The functions remove object fields, including in nested objects, that have null as a value. In certain cases this can lead to considerably smaller datums, with no loss of semantic information. Andrew Dunstan, reviewed by Pavel Stehule.
2014-09-29Revert 95d737ff to add 'ignore_nulls'Stephen Frost
Per discussion, revert the commit which added 'ignore_nulls' to row_to_json. This capability would be better added as an independent function rather than being bolted on to row_to_json. Additionally, the implementation didn't address complex JSON objects, and so was incomplete anyway. Pointed out by Tom and discussed with Andrew and Robert.
2014-09-11Add 'ignore_nulls' option to row_to_jsonStephen Frost
Provide an option to skip NULL values in a row when generating a JSON object from that row with row_to_json. This can reduce the size of the JSON object in cases where columns are NULL without really reducing the information in the JSON object. This also makes row_to_json into a single function with default values, rather than having multiple functions. In passing, change array_to_json to also be a single function with default values (we don't add an 'ignore_nulls' option yet- it's not clear that there is a sensible use-case there, and it hasn't been asked for in any case).

2014-03-26Cleanup around json_to_record/json_to_recordsetAndrew Dunstan
Set function parameter names and defaults. Add jsonb versions (which the code already provided for so the actual new code is trivial). Add jsonb regression tests and docs. Bump catalog version (which I apparently forgot to do when jsonb was committed).
2014-03-23Introduce jsonb, a structured format for storing json.Andrew Dunstan
The new format accepts exactly the same data as the json type. However, it is stored in a format that does not require reparsing the orgiginal text in order to process it, making it much more suitable for indexing and other operations. Insignificant whitespace is discarded, and the order of object keys is not preserved. Neither are duplicate object keys kept - the later value for a given key is the only one stored. The new type has all the functions and operators that the json type has, with the exception of the json generation functions (to_json, json_agg etc.) and with identical semantics. In addition, there are operator classes for hash and btree indexing, and two classes for GIN indexing, that have no equivalent in the json type. This feature grew out of previous work by Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, which was intended to provide similar facilities to a nested hstore type, but which in the end proved to have some significant compatibility issues.

2014-01-29Add json_array_elements_text function.Andrew Dunstan
This was a notable omission from the json functions added in 9.3 and there have been numerous complaints about its absence. Laurence Rowe.
2014-01-28New json functions.Andrew Dunstan
json_build_array() and json_build_object allow for the construction of arbitrarily complex json trees. json_object() turns a one or two dimensional array, or two separate arrays, into a json_object of name/value pairs, similarly to the hstore() function. json_object_agg() aggregates its two arguments into a single json object as name value pairs. Catalog version bumped. Andrew Dunstan, reviewed by Marko Tiikkaja.

2013-03-29Add new JSON processing functions and parser API.Andrew Dunstan
The JSON parser is converted into a recursive descent parser, and exposed for use by other modules such as extensions. The API provides hooks for all the significant parser event such as the beginning and end of objects and arrays, and providing functions to handle these hooks allows for fairly simple construction of a wide variety of JSON processing functions. A set of new basic processing functions and operators is also added, which use this API, including operations to extract array elements, object fields, get the length of arrays and the set of keys of a field, deconstruct an object into a set of key/value pairs, and create records from JSON objects and arrays of objects. Catalog version bumped. Andrew Dunstan, with some documentation assistance from Merlin Moncure.
2013-03-10JSON generation improvements.Andrew Dunstan
This adds the following: json_agg(anyrecord) -> json to_json(any) -> json hstore_to_json(hstore) -> json (also used as a cast) hstore_to_json_loose(hstore) -> json The last provides heuristic treatment of numbers and booleans. Also, in json generation, if any non-builtin type has a cast to json, that function is used instead of the type's output function. Andrew Dunstan, reviewed by Steve Singer. Catalog version bumped.

Also move the escape_json function from explain.c to json.c where it seems to belong. Andrew Dunstan, Reviewd by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
2012-01-31Built-in JSON data type.Robert Haas
Like the XML data type, we simply store JSON data as text, after checking that it is valid. More complex operations such as canonicalization and comparison may come later, but this is enough for not. There are a few open issues here, such as whether we should attempt to detect UTF-8 surrogate pairs represented as \uXXXX\uYYYY, but this gets the basic framework in place.
