I have a table:



CREATE TABLE foo (id,lat,lon)
AS VALUES
( 1, 34, 45 ),
( 1, 45, 56 ),
( 2, 56, 67 ),
( 2, 58, 64 );


How can I get JSON like that:



"1":[[34,45],[45,56]], "2":[[56,67],[58,64]]

  • This has nothing to do with spatial, or geojson.

  • The spatial solution is actually much easier, but then you don't store points in a table. You store either lines or MULTIPOINTs. and you can use PostGIS's ST_ToGeoJSON

  • I have an ability to save them like Postgis geom::point, can u provide this solution also?

  • no, it's a totally different question that requires you store a GEOGRAPHY or GEOMETRY type on the table, install the PostGIS extension, save all your points in a totally different format, and then query the table differently. It would take 25 pages for me to go over that setup and explain what's happening. I do however HIGHLY suggest the PostGIS in Action book if you're looking for direction and you want to learn GIS.

First you do something like this,



SELECT id, jsonb_agg(jsonb_build_array(lat,lon)) AS j
FROM foo
GROUP BY id;


That aggregates the values into an JSON Array. You get



 id | j 
----+----------------------
2 | [[56, 67], [58, 64]]
1 | [[34, 45], [45, 56]]


From there you need to build an JSON Object..



SELECT jsonb_object_agg(id,j)
FROM (
SELECT id, jsonb_agg(jsonb_build_array(lat,lon)) AS j
FROM foo
GROUP BY id
) AS t;
