Hvordan bruger man Postgres JSONB datatype med JPA?

Alle svarene hjalp mig med at nå frem til den endelige løsning, der er klar til JPA og ikke specifikt til EclipseLink eller Hibernate.

import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.type.TypeReference;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.json.Json;
import javax.json.JsonObject;
import javax.persistence.Converter;
import org.postgresql.util.PGobject;

@Converter(autoApply = true)
public class JsonConverter implements javax.persistence.AttributeConverter<JsonObject, Object> {

  private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
  private static ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();

  @Override
  public Object convertToDatabaseColumn(JsonObject objectValue) {
    try {
      PGobject out = new PGobject();
      out.setType("json");
      out.setValue(objectValue.toString());
      return out;
    } catch (Exception e) {
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unable to serialize to json field ", e);
    }
  }

  @Override
  public JsonObject convertToEntityAttribute(Object dataValue) {
    try {
      if (dataValue instanceof PGobject && ((PGobject) dataValue).getType().equals("json")) {
        return mapper.reader(new TypeReference<JsonObject>() {
        }).readValue(((PGobject) dataValue).getValue());
      }
      return Json.createObjectBuilder().build();
    } catch (IOException e) {
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unable to deserialize to json field ", e);
    }
  }
}
