def as_boolean(self):

Cast an indexed value as boolean.

e.g.:

stmt = select(
    mytable.c.json_column['some_data'].as_boolean()
).where(
    mytable.c.json_column['some_data'].as_boolean() == True
)
New in version 1.3.11.
def as_float(self):

Cast an indexed value as float.

e.g.:

stmt = select(
    mytable.c.json_column['some_data'].as_float()
).where(
    mytable.c.json_column['some_data'].as_float() == 29.75
)
New in version 1.3.11.
def as_integer(self):

)
New in version 1.3.11.
def as_json(self):

Cast an indexed value as JSON.

e.g.:

stmt = select(mytable.c.json_column['some_data'].as_json())

This is typically the default behavior of indexed elements in any case.

Note that comparison of full JSON structures may not be supported by all backends.

New in version 1.3.11.
