I am trying to create the following strored function based on your
suggestion (and I have forgotten to mention, that I also need the board id
aka bid from another table, words_games), but hit the next problem:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION words_get_move(
in_mid integer
) RETURNS TABLE (
out_bid integer,
out_mid bigint,
out_hand text,
out_col integer,
out_row integer,
out_letter text,
out_value integer
) AS
$func$
SELECT
g.bid,
m.mid,
m.hand,
(t->'col')::int AS col,
(t->'row')::int AS row,
(t->'letter')::text AS letter,
(t->'value')::int AS value
FROM words_moves m
CROSS JOIN JSONB_ARRAY_ELEMENTS(m.tiles) AS t(tile)
LEFT JOIN words_games g USING(gid)
WHERE m.action = 'play' AND
m.gid = (SELECT gid FROM words_moves WHERE mid = in_mid)
AND m.played <= (SELECT played FROM words_moves WHERE mid = in_mid)
ORDER BY m.played DESC;
$func$ LANGUAGE sql;
words_ru=> \i src/slova/dict/words_get_move.sql
psql:src/slova/dict/words_get_move.sql:28: ERROR: cannot cast type jsonb
to integer
LINE 17: (t->'col')::int AS col,
^
How to cast the col to integer here?
Thanks
Alex
