#>text[]get_json_in(jsonb, field)Get JSON object at specified path
#>>text[]get_text_in(jsonb, field)Get JSON object at specified path as text
@>jsonbleft_cotains?(jsonb, jsonb)Does the left JSON value contain the right JSON path/value entries at the top level?
<@jsonbright_contains?(jsonb, jsonb)Are the left JSON path/value entries contained at the top level within the right JSON value?
?textkeys_exist?(jsonb, key)Does the string exist as a top-level key within the JSON value?
?|text[]keys_exist?(jsonb, any: strings)Do any of these array strings exist as top-level keys?
?&text[]keys_exist?(jsonb, all: strings)Do all of these array strings exist as top-level keys?

Example data

      create table metrics (
        id serial primary key,
        attributes jsonb
      );
  
      insert into metrics (id, attributes)
      values
        (1, '{"data": "nope"}'),
        (2, '{"data": {"level2": "yep"}}'),
        (3, '{"data": {"level2": {"level3": "yepyep"}}}');
  

Example queries

   q =
     from t in @table,
       where: get_text(t.attributes, "data") == "nope",
       select: t.id

   assert TestRepo.one(q) == 1
   q =
     from t in @table,
       where: t.id == 2,
       select: get_object(t.attributes, "data")

   assert TestRepo.one(q) == %{"level2" => "yep"}
  q =
    from t in @table,
      where: t.id == 2,
      select: get_text_in(t.attributes, "{data, level2}")

  q2 =
    from t in @table,
      where: t.id == 2,
      select: get_text_in(t.attributes, ["data", "level2"])

  assert TestRepo.one(q) == TestRepo.one(q2)
  assert TestRepo.one(q) == "yep"
  q =
    from t in @table,
      where: t.id == 3,
      select: get_object_in(t.attributes, "{data, level2}")

  q2 =
    from t in @table,
      where: t.id == 3,
      select: get_object_in(t.attributes, ["data", "level2"])

  assert TestRepo.one(q) == TestRepo.one(q2)
  assert TestRepo.one(q) == %{"level3" => "yepyep"}

Thank you for your contribution. How it is different than Ecto.Query.API, because someone can directly do fragment("?->>? ILIKE ?", p.map, "key_name", ^some_value) for JSON/JSONB?

Thanks for the review, @codingdefined.

Yep, that's exactly the point of this library. I've noticed that my codebase is full of repeated fragments for JSONB handling so I've decided to dry it out and extract the functionality to a dedicated package.
