Обсуждение: jsonpath: Inconsistency of timestamp_tz() Output
Hackers,
There’s an odd difference in the behavior of timestamp_tz() outputs. Running with America/New_York as my TZ, it looks
finefor a full timestamptz, identical to how casting the types directly works:
david=# set time zone 'America/New_York';
SET
david=# select '2024-08-15 12:34:56-04'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2024-08-15 12:34:56-04
(1 row)
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56-04"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
-----------------------------
"2024-08-15T12:34:56-04:00"
Both show the time in America/New_York, which is great. But when casting from a date, the behavior differs. Casting
directly:
david=# select '2024-08-15'::date::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2024-08-15 00:00:00-04
It stringifies to the current zone setting again, as expected. But look at the output from a path query:
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2023-08-15"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
-----------------------------
"2023-08-15T04:00:00+00:00"
It’s using UTC for the display output! Shouldn’t it be using America/New_York?
Note that I’m comparing a cast from date to timestamptz because that’s how the jsonpath parsing works[1]: it ultimately
usesdate2timestamptz_opt_overflow()[2] to make the conversion, which appears to set the offset from the time zone GUC,
soI’m not sure where it’s converted to UTC before stringifying.
Maybe an argument is missing from the stringification path?
FWIW, explicitly calling the string() jsonpath method does produce a result in the current TZ:
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2023-08-15"', '$.timestamp_tz().string()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
--------------------------
"2023-08-15 00:00:00-04"
That bit uses timestamptz_out to format the output, but JSONB has its own stringification[4] (called here[5]), but I
can’ttell what might be different between a timestamptz cast from a date and one not cast from a date.
Note the same divergency in behavior occurs when the source value is a timestamp, too. Compare:
david=# select '2024-08-15 12:34:56'::timestamp::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2024-08-15 12:34:56-04
(1 row)
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2023-08-15 12:34:56"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
-----------------------------
"2023-08-15T16:34:56+00:00"
(1 row)
Anyway, should the output of timestamptz JSONB values be made more consistent? I’m happy to make a patch to do so, but
coulduse a hand figuring out where the behavior varies.
Best,
David

I think if the formatting was more consistent, the test output would be:

That second example is a bit different than I noticed up-thread, not just a formatting issue but the offset is never
applied!.That test run under tz +10, and this is how it works with the non-JSONB data types:
david=# set time zone '+10';

FWIW I fixed this issue in my jsonpath port, which I released over the weekend.[1] You can see what I think should be
theproper output for these two examples in these Playground links, where the response will use your browser’s time
zone:[2], [3].

Do you also expect this to show the time in America/New_York?
This is what I get:
[local] postgres@postgres:5432-28176=# select
jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56-05"', '$.timestamp_tz()');

(1 row)
The logic in executeDateTimeMethod seems to convert the input to a UTC
timestamp base on the session TZ,
the output seems not cast based on the TZ.

Right, which now that I think about it seems odd, because timestamptz does not actually store an offset. As you say, it
convertsthe time to UTC and stores only that, then displays the offset relative to the current time zone setting.
So in plain SQL it always displays relative to the current TZ offset:
david=# set time zone 'America/New_York';
SET
david=# select '2023-08-15 12:34:56-05'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2023-08-15 13:34:56-04
(1 row)
david=# select '2023-08-15 12:34:56'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2023-08-15 12:34:56-04
(1 row)
In jsopath expressions, however, it does not, as your example demonstrates:
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56-05"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
-----------------------------
"2024-08-15T12:34:56-05:00"
How is it retaining the offset? Should it?
The display is properly adjusted when using string():
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56-05"', '$.timestamp_tz().string()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
--------------------------
"2024-08-15 13:34:56-04"
(1 row)
So perhaps I had things reversed before. Maybe it’s actually doing the right then when it converts a timestamp to a
timestamptz,but not when it the input contains an offset, as in your example.

To clarify, there’s an inconsistency in the output of timestamp_tz() depending on whether the input has an offset or
not.With offset:
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56-05"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
-----------------------------
"2024-08-15T12:34:56-05:00"
And without:
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz
-----------------------------
"2024-08-15T16:34:56+00:00"
I suspect the latter is correct, given that the timestamptz type appears to be an int64, presumably always in UTC. I
don’tunderstand where the first example stores the offset.
Best,
David

In JsonbValue.val.datatime, there is a tz field, I think that's where
the offset stored, it is 18000 in the first example
struct
{
Datum value;
Oid typid;
int32 typmod;
int tz; /* Numeric time zone, in seconds, for
* TimestampTz data type */
} datetime;

Oooh, okay, so it’s a jsonb variant of the type. Interesting. Ah, and it’s assigned here[1]:
jb->val.datetime.tz = tz;
It seems like JSONB timestamptz values want to display the recorded time zone, so I suspect we need to set it when the
convertingfrom a non-tz to a local tz setting, something like this:

I'm not sure whether the SQL/JSON standard mentioned this, I searched a
little bit, but found no clue :(

Oh, thank you! Kicking myself for not catching the obvious.

Yes, and I think that’s what we want, since it preserves and displays the offset for strings that contain them:
david=# set time zone 'America/New_York';
SET
david=# select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2024-08-15 12:34:56+10"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query_tz

Yeah I don’t know either, but now at least it’s consistent. I’ve attached a patch to fix it.
Ideally, I think, we wouldn’t convert the value and determine the offset twice, but teach date_timestamptz and
timestamp_timestamptz(or date2timestamptz and timestamp2timestamptz?) how to return the offset, or create alternate
functionsthat do so. Not sure what calling style should be adopted here, but this at least addresses the issue. Happy
toresubmit something more efficient upon function design feedback.
Best,
David

Here’s a September CommitFest item, though I think it should be fixed before the next beta. https://commitfest.postgresql.org/49/5119/ Best, David

Actually I think there’s a subtlety still missing here:
@@ -2914,7 +2914,7 @@ HINT: Use *_tz() function for time zone support.
select jsonb_path_query_tz('"2023-08-15"', '$.timestamp_tz()'); -- should work
jsonb_path_query_tz -----------------------------
- "2023-08-15T07:00:00+00:00"
+ "2023-08-14T23:00:00-08:00"
(1 row)
This test runs while the time zone is set to “PST8PDT”, but it’s got the PST offset when it should be PDT:
david=# set time zone 'PST8PDT';
SET
david=# select '2023-08-15'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2023-08-15 00:00:00-07
So it should be -7, not -8. Not sure where to tell it to pay proper attention to daylight savings time.

Oh, and the time and date were wrong, too, because I blindly used the same conversion for dates as for timestamps. Fixedin v2.
