JSON_ARRAY_PUSH_<type>

This is a set of three JSON functions, which add the given element to the end of a JSON array.

Arrays are of the form:

["alpha", "beta", "gamma"]
["alpha", 1, 2, 3]

  • JSON_ARRAY_PUSH_DOUBLE is for all numeric data. Javascript has only one numeric type.

  • JSON_ARRAY_PUSH_STRING is for all text and binary types.

  • JSON_ARRAY_PUSH_JSON is for all valid Javascript types, including true, false, JSON maps, and lists.

JSON_ARRAY_PUSH_<type>(json, value)

Arguments

  • json: a valid JSON array, or the name of a JSON column.

  • value: the value to add to the array.

Return Value

  • The complete array including the new element.

  • SQL NULL if json is not a valid JSON array.
