Function jsonb_patch 

pub fn jsonb_patch<T: JsonOrNullableJsonOrJsonbOrNullableJsonb + SingleValue, P: JsonOrNullableJsonOrJsonbOrNullableJsonb + SingleValue + CombinedNullableValue<T, Jsonb>, target, patch>(
    target: target,
    patch: patch,
) -> jsonb_patch<T, P, target, patch>
where
    target: AsExpression<T>,
    patch: AsExpression<P>,

Available on crate feature sqlite only.

Applies an RFC 7396 MergePatch patch to the input JSON target and returns the patched JSON value in SQLite’s binary JSONB format.

See json_patch for details about the MergePatch semantics.

Examples

let result = diesel::select(jsonb_patch::<Jsonb, Jsonb, _, _>(
    json!( {"a":1,"b":2} ),
    json!( {"c":3,"d":4} ),
))
.get_result::<Value>(connection)?;
assert_eq!(json!({"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4}), result);

// Nullable input yields nullable output
let result = diesel::select(jsonb_patch::<Nullable<Jsonb>, Jsonb, _, _>(
    None::<Value>,
    json!({}),
))
.get_result::<Option<Value>>(connection)?;
assert!(result.is_none());
