PostgreSQL -ARRAY_REPLACE Function

ByAdmin

The array_replace function in PostgreSQL is used to replace all occurrences of a specified value from an array. It takes three arguments: the array from which you want to replace elements, the value that you want to replace and the value you want to replace with.

Below is the syntax of the array_replace function:

array_replace(array, old_value, new_value)

Where:

array is the array from which you want to remove elements.

old_value is the value you want to replace from the array.

new_value is the value you want to replace with.

Here’s an example of using the array_replace function:

SELECT array_replace('{10, 20, 30, 40, 20}', 20, 50) AS result_array;

The output would be:

result_array 
-------------- 
{10,50,30,40,50} 
(1 row)

In this example, the array_replace function replaced all occurrences of the value 20 with 50 in the input array.
