i have my typeorm column like this, what i want is an array of JSON object which i manage to get.
@Column({
type: 'jsonb',
array: false,
default: () => "'[]'",
nullable: false,
})
tokens!: Array<{ token: string }>;
this is how the field looks, and am fine with it, what i want is to find a document with a particular token, so i came up with the below code, but it returns an empty array.
const user = await User.find({ where: { _id: decoded._id, tokens: { token: token } } });
normally when am using mongooe i can get this working using
const user = await User.findOneBy({_id: decoded._id, "tokens.token": token,}); and this returns a particular user, with the id and token string passed.
i want help on how to find a user using the id and the token string inside in array of object, thanks.
TypeORM does not natively support queries on PostreSQL jsonb columns. Performing a query on the data in a jsonb column would require you to either issue a raw query or write your own WHERE clause in.where or .addWhere of a query builder (doc).
For reference, the jsonb query syntax documentation can be found here.
