* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v40 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v41 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v42 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v43 2/2] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v44 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v45 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v46 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v48 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

* [PATCH v49 2/3] Filling gaps in jsonb
@ 2020-12-31 14:19  Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 172+ messages in thread

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2020-12-31 14:19 UTC (permalink / raw)

Introduces two new modes for jsonb assignment:

* Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps filled with
nulls (similar to JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to
create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more
than just the last element) is not present.

* Assigning keeps array positions consistent by prevent prepending of
elements.

Originally proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting
patch, but transformed into an independent change.

Oh, good catch. Here is a new patch set. There are no new changes from v39.

Subject: [PATCH v40 1/3] postgres_fdw: add postgres_fdw_verify_connection
 variants

This function can verify the status of connections that are establieshed by
postgres_fdw. This check wil be done by polling the socket. This feature is
currently available only on systems that support the non-standard POLLRDHUP
extension to the poll system call, including Linux.

They return true if existing connection is not closed by the remote peer.
