Inserting data to a PostgreSQL jsonb column via Scala Anorm (in Play Framework)

The data column of PostgreSQL table my_table is of format jsonb. I would like to insert a Scala JsObject (or JsValue), but don't know how to do it!

The following code does not compile, because the on function expects json to be a String:

  def add(json: JsObject): Option[Long] = {
    DB.withConnection {
      implicit c =>

        val query = """
             insert into my_table(data)
        values({data});"""

        SQL(query).on(
          "data" -> json
        ).executeInsert()
    }
  }

What is the solution?

Borrowing from @KJay_wer, we can use ::jsonb tag with Scala Anorm (Play Framework) too, and convert your JsObject (or other JsValue) into String:

def add(json: JsObject): Option[Long] = {
    DB.withConnection {
      implicit c =>

        val query = """
             insert into my_table (data)
             values ({data}::jsonb);
             """.stripMargin

        SQL(query).on(
          "data" -> json.toString
        ).executeInsert()
    }
  }
