Postgres json_agg

How can I create this equivalent using drizzle? 
select
  p.id,
  p.description,
  p.name,
  json_build_object(
    'id',
    b.id,
    'name',
    b.name
  ) as brand,
  json_agg(
    json_build_object(
      'id',
      v.id,
      'name',
      v.name
    )
  ) as variant
from
  product as p
  inner join brand as b on b.id = p.brand_id
  inner join product_variant as v on v.product_id = p.id
group by p.id, b.id
select
  p.id,
  p.description,
  p.name,
  json_build_object(
    'id',
    b.id,
    'name',
    b.name
  ) as brand,
  json_agg(
    json_build_object(
      'id',
      v.id,
      'name',
      v.name
    )
  ) as variant
from
  product as p
  inner join brand as b on b.id = p.brand_id
  inner join product_variant as v on v.product_id = p.id
group by p.id, b.id
I cannot find any article in the docs.

The syntax is very close, you don't really need the alias but if you want you can define them before: 
const p = alias(product, "p");
const b = alias(brand, "b");
const v = alias(product_variant, "v");
db.select({
  id: p.id,
  description: p.description,
  name: p.name,
  brand: sql`json_build_object('id', ${b.id}, 'name', ${b.name})`.as("brand"),
  variant: sql`json_agg(json_build_object('id', ${v.id}, 'name', ${v.name}))`.as("variant"),
})
  .from(p)
  .innerJoin(b, eq(b.id, p.brand_id))
  .innerJoin(v, eq(v.product_id, p.id))
  .groupBy(p.id, b.id)
const p = alias(product, "p");
const b = alias(brand, "b");
const v = alias(product_variant, "v");
db.select({
  id: p.id,
  description: p.description,
  name: p.name,
  brand: sql`json_build_object('id', ${b.id}, 'name', ${b.name})`.as("brand"),
  variant: sql`json_agg(json_build_object('id', ${v.id}, 'name', ${v.name}))`.as("variant"),
})
  .from(p)
  .innerJoin(b, eq(b.id, p.brand_id))
  .innerJoin(v, eq(v.product_id, p.id))
  .groupBy(p.id, b.id)

Thank you!

I'd suggest you also use the .mapWith() method on the sql operator to parse the json you'll get from the driver and give it the correct type I believe the way it is right now, brand and variant will be inferred as unknown

Another BTW: the RQB api does this for you if you have your relations properly defined
