The problem is that @> only operates at the top level of the JSON object
presented to it:
xof=# TABLE j;
f
--------------------
[{"a": 1, "b": 2}]
{"a": 1, "b": 2}
(2 rows)
xof=# SELECT * FROM j WHERE f @> $$ { "a": 1 } $$::jsonb;;
f
------------------
{"a": 1, "b": 2}
(1 row)
I'm actually not seeing a great solution to your particular problem. If you
know for sure that everything always has the format you describe, you can use
jsonb_array_elements to extract the individual members of the array, and use @>
on them, via a JOIN, but it's not clear that an index will help you there.
