ERROR: invalid GeoJson representation

the GeoJSON Spec show,



{
"type": "Feature",
"geometry": {
"type": "Point",
"coordinates": [125.6, 10.1]
},
"properties": {
"name": "Dinagat Islands"
}
}


But when I wrap that in a call to ST_GeomFromGeoJSON, like this,



SELECT ST_GeomFromGeoJSON($${                                                                                                                          
"type": "Feature",
"geometry": {
"type": "Point",
"coordinates": [125.6, 10.1]
},
"properties": {
"name": "Dinagat Islands"
}
}$$);


I get the error,

          From the docs on ST_GeomFromGeoJSON




          ST_GeomFromGeoJSON works only for JSON Geometry fragments. It throws an error if you try to use it on a whole JSON document.




          This means you'll want to cut out just the value from the geometry in your GeoJSON document,



          SELECT ST_AsText(geom)
          FROM ST_GeomFromGeoJSON($${
          "type": "Point",
          "coordinates": [125.6, 10.1]
          }$$) AS geom;

          st_astext
          -------------------
          POINT(125.6 10.1)


          ST_GeomFromGeoJSON is the inverse of ST_AsGeoJSON (which only produces the geometry section of GeoJSON document.)
