json_query
Description
Queries the value of an element that can be located by the json_path
expression in a JSON object and returns a JSON value.
Syntax
json_query(json_object_expr, json_path)
Parameters
json_object_expr
: the expression that represents the JSON object. The object can be a JSON column, or a JSON object that is produced by a JSON constructor function such as PARSE_JSON.json_path
: the expression that represents the path to an element in the JSON object. The value of this parameter is a string. For information about the JSON path syntax that is supported by StarRocks, see Overview of JSON functions and operators.
Return value
Returns a JSON value.
If the element does not exist, the json_query function returns an SQL value of
NULL
.
Examples
Example 1: Query the value of an element that can be located by the '$.a.b'
expression in the specified JSON object. In this example, the json_query function returns a JSON value of 1
.
mysql> SELECT json_query(PARSE_JSON('{"a": {"b": 1}}'), '$.a.b') ;
-> 1
Example 2: Query the value of an element that can be located by the '$.a.c'
expression in the specified JSON object. In this example, the element does not exist. Therefore, the json_query function returns an SQL value of NULL
.
mysql> SELECT json_query(PARSE_JSON('{"a": {"b": 1}}'), '$.a.c') ;
-> NULL
Example 3: Query the value of an element that can be located by the '$.a[2]'
expression in the specified JSON object. In this example, the JSON object, which is an array named a, contains an element at index 2, and the value of the element is 3. Therefore, the JSON_QUERY function returns a JSON value of 3
.
mysql> SELECT json_query(PARSE_JSON('{"a": [1,2,3]}'), '$.a[2]') ;
-> 3
Example 4: Query an element that can be located by the '$.a[3]'
expression in the specified JSON object. In this example, the JSON object, which is an array named a, does not contain an element at index 3. Therefore, the json_query function returns an SQL value of NULL
.
mysql> SELECT json_query(PARSE_JSON('{"a": [1,2,3]}'), '$.a[3]') ;
-> NULL
