Niels Lohmann 3a04f78507 Make convert_null_to() take the container type as a template argument
Passing array_t or object_t instead of a value_t makes an invalid target
a compile error instead of a runtime assertion, and removes the branch.

Niels Lohmann 09d41a894b Re-enable bugprone-use-after-move/hicpp-invalid-access-moved
These two checks (and portability-template-virtual-member-function)
were disabled in #4489 (November 2024) "only removed to get the CI
going". portability-template-virtual-member-function is a separate,
still-open cleanup (#5725 item 3 on its own branch) and stays
disabled here; this commit only re-enables the move/forward checks
and cleans up what they flag on this branch.

The move constructor (json.hpp) already casts to the base type
instead of forwarding the whole object (#5724 item 9), so it no
longer trips either check. The at(KeyType&&) double-forward this
check used to flag was reduced to a single forward with the
now-unforwarded reuse annotated by a NOLINTNEXTLINE in #5724 item 3's
object_at() helper (clang-tidy 22 still flags that reuse even after a
single forward; see that commit's message). What is left here:

- from_json_inplace_array_impl(), from_json_tuple_impl_base() and the
  std::pair overload of from_json_tuple_impl() forwarded j into every
  j.at(...) call in a pack expansion or a pair of calls. at() has no
  ref-qualified overloads, so the forward was a no-op; call j.at(...)
  directly.
- container_input_adapter_factory::create() forwards container twice
  on purpose, into begin() and end(), so both see the same value
  category and produce matching iterator types. Annotate it with
  NOLINTNEXTLINE and a comment instead of changing it.
- unit-class_parser.cpp's "move constructor resets the moved-from
  value to npos" test still pointed at the pre-static_cast move
  constructor by line number and mentioned the cppcheck-suppress
  annotation that #5724 item 9 already removed; update the comment.

No behavior change anywhere in include/. Verified with clang-tidy 22.1.8
(Docker silkeh/clang:22, --platform linux/amd64) against a TU including
json.hpp with the repo's .clang-tidy: bugprone-use-after-move and
hicpp-invalid-access-moved report nothing unsuppressed.

Overlaps #5737 (open PR for the rest of #5725 item 3: the
from_json.hpp/input_adapters.hpp cleanup above, and
portability-template-virtual-member-function), which currently keeps
both checks disabled pending this move-constructor change; whichever
of this commit and that PR lands second will need a small rebase of
.clang-tidy.

Niels Lohmann 3e771c2ad7 Deduplicate the linear key search in ordered_map
emplace, at, erase(key), count and find each repeated the same
"for (auto it = begin(); it != end(); ++it) if (m_compare(it->first,
key)) ..." loop (15 copies across their key_type and transparent
KeyType&& overloads), and both erase(key) overloads additionally
repeated the exception-sensitive in-place reconstruction (destroy,
placement-new, pop_back) used to remove an element while keeping the
const Key non-movable.

Add two private helpers: find_impl(Self&, KeyType&&), a static member
template that runs the search once for either constness of the
receiver, and erase_at(iterator), which keeps the existing
pop_back-based reconstruction instead of switching to erase()/resize()
(which would add a DefaultInsertable requirement). Route find, at,
count, emplace, insert(const value_type&) and both erase(key)
overloads through them.

Same signatures, is_usable_as_key_type constraints and exception
messages/types.

Overlaps #5609 and #5685, which both rewrite emplace (#5609 also
touches insert and adds private members at the end of the class);
whichever of this commit and those PRs lands second will need a
rebase.

Niels Lohmann 51233dc17d Deduplicate the null-to-container conversion into convert_null_to()
Nine sites wrote out the same "turn a null value into an empty array
or object" logic with two different idioms: operator[](size_type),
operator[](key_type), operator[](KeyType&&) and update() set m_type
then assigned m_value.array/object directly via create<T>(), while the
three push_back() overloads, emplace_back() and emplace() set m_type
then assigned m_value = value_t::array/object (going through
json_value's converting constructor and a temporary). Both idioms end
up calling create<T>() and produce the same state, just via a
different path; both also share a latent exception-safety bug, since
m_type is written before the (possibly throwing) allocation, so a
throwing allocator leaves m_type == array/object with a null pointer
behind it, violating the class invariant and crashing on the next
access to, or destruction of, the value.

Add a private convert_null_to(value_t) helper and call it from all
nine sites. Unlike the idioms it replaces, it allocates the container
first and only then writes m_type, so a throwing allocation leaves the
value as a valid null instead of a mistyped, half-constructed one;
verified with a throwing allocator (see unit-allocator.cpp's
bad_allocator) that j["x"] = ... on a null j now stays null, and no
longer trips assert_invariant()/crashes, when create<object_t>()
throws. Same allocator usage and assert_invariant() call as before,
otherwise.

Overlaps #5585, which reorders these same nine blocks for exception
safety; whichever of this commit and that PR lands second will need a
small rebase.

Niels Lohmann 03d53596f9 Deduplicate the lookup/default/throw body of value()
The six non-deprecated value() overloads each held a full copy of the
same body: the four key-based overloads looked up the key and either
returned the found element converted to the requested type or the
default value (throwing type_error.306 if this is not an object), and
the two json_pointer overloads did the same via
ptr.get_checked_or_null(), throwing type_error.306 unless
is_structured(). Replace the duplicated bodies with two private
helpers, value_member() and value_pointee(), that return a
const basic_json* (null when not found) and do the type check/throw
once each. Every value() overload now just picks between the found
pointer's get<T>() and the default.

Same signatures, template parameters, SFINAE conditions, exception id,
message and this context on every overload.

Overlaps #5689 (routes find() through lookup_key()) and #5705 (adds a
deleted integral-key value() next to these overloads); whichever of
this commit and those PRs lands second will need a small rebase.

Niels Lohmann a0e01e3b9c Deduplicate object key lookup and checked at() access
at()/find()/count()/contains()/const operator[]/erase_internal() each
repeated the raw object lookup (m_value.object->find(key)), and the
six at() overloads additionally repeated the type_error.304 check and
out_of_range.401/403 throw. Route them all through two new private
helpers, object_lookup()/object_at() (plus array_at() for the index
overloads of at()), templated on the constness of the receiver so one
body serves both the const and non-const overload. count() is left
untouched, since it already goes through object_t::count() rather
than a second find().

The at(KeyType&&) overloads used to forward the same key twice: once
into object->find() and again, on the not-found path, into the
string_t() conversion for the exception message. object_at() now
forwards it only into the lookup and reuses the (unmoved) key for the
message. clang-tidy 22 (Docker silkeh/clang:22) still flags that reuse
under bugprone-use-after-move/hicpp-invalid-access-moved even with the
single forward, since it cannot see that object_t::find() (a plain
std::map or ordered_map) never actually moves from its argument; add a
NOLINTNEXTLINE with that reasoning rather than avoid the pattern.

No signature, exception id/message, or set_parent() behavior changes.

Overlaps #5689, #5705, #5606, #5687 and #5585, which touch the same
hunks; whichever of this commit and those PRs lands second will need
a small rebase.

Niels Lohmann 0c0d5edda3 Make insert(pos, basic_json&&) move its argument instead of copying it
insert(const_iterator pos, basic_json&& val) delegated to
insert(pos, val), but val is a named rvalue reference, so inside the
function it is an lvalue: the call always resolved to
insert(const_iterator, const basic_json&) and deep-copied the value.
This has been the case since the overload was introduced, in every
release. push_back(basic_json&&), by contrast, already moves.

Give the rvalue overload its own body with the same two checks
(type_error.309, invalid_iterator.202), then move the argument into a
local before inserting it. Moving into a local first, rather than
inserting std::move(val) directly, keeps this safe even when val
aliases an element of the same array (e.g.
arr.insert(arr.begin(), std::move(arr[1]))), since
std::vector::insert(pos, T&&) is not guaranteed to handle an argument
that aliases one of its own elements.

This is a deliberate, small behavior change: the moved-from argument
now ends up null afterwards, the same as after push_back(&&), instead
of keeping its old value unchanged. No signature changes, so the
public API and ABI are unaffected. Add unit-modifiers coverage for
the moved-from state and for self-aliasing insertion, both with and
without reallocation of the underlying array.

Niels Lohmann ff2ec8116d Deduplicate the 16 copied from_cbor/msgpack/ubjson/bjdata/bon8/bson bodies
Each of the 16 binary deserialization overloads (from_cbor,
from_msgpack, from_ubjson, from_bjdata, from_bon8, from_bson, each in
an InputType&& and an iterator/sentinel version, plus the deprecated
span overloads of from_cbor/from_msgpack/from_ubjson/from_bson) had
the same body, differing only in the input_format_t value. Every copy
built a temporary binary_reader from std::move(ia) and called
sax_parse on it in the same expression, which also produced a
false-positive cppcheck accessMoved on all 16 lines and needed a
NOLINTNEXTLINE(hicpp-move-const-arg,performance-move-const-arg) on
the four span overloads.

Add a private from_binary_impl() helper that builds the reader as a
named local instead, and make each of the 16 overloads a one-line
forward to it. All public signatures, default arguments,
JSON_HEDLEY_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT and JSON_HEDLEY_DEPRECATED_FOR
attributes are unchanged, tag_handler keeps defaulting to
cbor_tag_handler_t::error for the non-CBOR formats (matching
binary_reader::sax_parse's own default), and the helper is placed in
the existing private section before the binary section banner rather
than between the from_* overloads, so from_binary_impl() itself does
not collide with #5688's insertion point. Collapsing the
from_bjdata/from_bon8 bodies into one-line forwards does rewrite the
"return result; }" context lines that #5688 inserts its two
deprecated overloads after, so that PR will need a small manual
rebase (reinserting its overloads after the new one-line bodies)
rather than applying cleanly.

Niels Lohmann b591304d04 Fix stale and copy-pasted comments in basic_json
Several comments no longer match the code: the class invariant and
assert_invariant()'s doc still named the members m_value/m_type
(now m_data.m_value/m_data.m_type) and did not mention the binary
invariant that assert_invariant() already checks; the json_value note
and the get<PointerType>() @tparam list omitted binary_t even though
binary is a variable-length, pointer-stored type like the others; the
key-based value() overload's brief said "via JSON Pointer", which is
the other overload; and swap(binary_t&)/swap(binary_t::container_type&)
both carried "swap only works for strings", copied from swap(string_t&).

Comment-only change; behavior, the public API and the ABI are
unchanged. The private get_impl() doxygen and the emplace() comments
that border #5585's hunk are intentionally left alone.

Niels Lohmann c2553bac5a Deduplicate the string/binary cleanup in the two erase() overloads
erase(pos) and erase(first, last) each carried a byte-identical
14-line block that destroys and deallocates a string or binary
value before resetting the type to null. That reimplements the
string/binary cases of json_value::destroy(), so any future change to
how those values are freed would have to be made in three places
instead of one. Both overloads now just call destroy() and reset the
union; for the other primitive types (boolean, numbers) destroy() is
a no-op, so behavior is unchanged.

Also fix erase(first, last)'s error-path branch hint, which used
JSON_HEDLEY_LIKELY where erase(pos), the iterator-range constructor,
and every other error path in the class use JSON_HEDLEY_UNLIKELY.
This only affects code layout, not semantics.

Niels Lohmann 1274e0f250 Remove stale cppcheck suppressions and name the local parser in parse()
Running the pinned cppcheck (ci_cppcheck's invocation) without
--inline-suppr across all configurations reports no syntaxError, no
ignoredReturnValue and no assertWithSideEffect, so the corresponding
suppressions in json_fwd.hpp, string_concat.hpp and
assert_invariant() no longer match anything (json_fwd.hpp's is kept,
since downstream users who run an older cppcheck against it could
still hit the warning it once silenced).

The three basic_json::parse() overloads still trigger a false-positive
accessMoved/accessForwarded because they build a temporary parser and
call .parse() on it in the same expression; giving that parser a name
makes the warning go away without changing behavior, and removes the
last of the inline suppressions on these functions.

Niels Lohmann ffd3a3722b Remove four cppcheck accessForwarded suppressions in the move constructor
basic_json(basic_json&&) built its base subobject with
std::forward<json_base_class_t>(other), so cppcheck saw the whole of
other as forwarded and flagged every subsequent access to it as
accessForwarded, three of them still marked "TODO check". Only the
base subobject is actually moved from; cast explicitly to the base
type instead, the way ordered_map already does, so cppcheck can tell
the two are unrelated. Behavior is unchanged: for a non-reference T,
std::forward<T>(x) is defined as static_cast<T&&>(x).

Niels Lohmann f5e4b9b8cf Stop the noexcept null constructor delegating to a throwing one
basic_json(std::nullptr_t) delegated to basic_json(value_t), whose
underlying json_value(value_t) constructor allocates for other types
and can therefore throw, which is why the noexcept had a
NOLINT(bugprone-exception-escape). The delegated-to constructor also
called assert_invariant() a second time. The default member
initializers of data already produce the same null state (a
value-initialized, i.e. zeroed, union with object == nullptr), so the
delegation and its NOLINT can simply be dropped.

Niels Lohmann e5c3e81279 Fix meta()'s dead, syntactically invalid HP aCC branch
The HP aCC branch of basic_json::meta() was missing a semicolon and
has therefore never compiled; adding only a semicolon would also make
it throw type_error.305, since it assigned a plain string to
result["compiler"] and then indexed into it like the other branches
do into an object. Make the branch consistent with the others by
assigning an object with "family" and "version" keys, narrow the
condition to __HP_aCC (a C compiler cannot build this header-only
library), and fix meta.md, which documented the old (impossible)
plain-string behavior.

### Zero-copy views
Header `<nlohmann/json_view.hpp>` adds `json_document`/`json_view`, a read-only, non-owning way to look at a parsed
JSON text: parsing builds a flat index (16 bytes per value) instead of a tree, strings and numbers stay in the source
text, and `materialize()` builds a `json` value for a subtree only when you actually need one. See
[Zero-copy JSON views](https://json.nlohmann.me/features/json_view/) for the details, including which inputs are
borrowed and which are copied.

Checks whether the input is valid JSON, accepting and rejecting exactly what
[`BasicJsonType::accept()`](../basic_json/accept.md) does, with the same options. Unlike [`parse()`](parse.md), this
function never throws an exception for invalid input, and the returned `#!cpp bool` is the only result -- no document

## Template parameters
`InputType`
: A compatible input; see [`parse`](parse.md#template-parameters).
## Parameters
`input` (in)
: Input to check.

: whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
(`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)

# <small>nlohmann::</small>basic_json_document
<small>Defined in header `<nlohmann/json_view.hpp>`</small>
```cpp
template<typename BasicJsonType, bool Editable = false>
class basic_json_document;
```
A parsed JSON text, held as a flat index of its values
([16 bytes per value](../../home/architecture.md#node-index-of-json-views)) instead of a tree of `BasicJsonType` values.
Strings and numbers stay in the source text; only strings that contain escapes are decoded, into one buffer owned by
the document. [`basic_json_view`](../basic_json_view/index.md) is a read-only handle to one value of a
`basic_json_document`; [`materialize()`](../basic_json_view/materialize.md) turns a subtree back into the
`BasicJsonType` value that [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) would have produced for it.
A document may **borrow** the text it was parsed from (the caller's buffer must then outlive the document) or **own**
it (a copy, or an rvalue `#!cpp std::string` that was moved in); see [`owns_source`](owns_source.md). `basic_json_document`
is move-only: copying a document would either duplicate a potentially large index and text, or leave two documents
claiming to borrow the same buffer, so it is disabled.
With `#!cpp Editable == true`, the document also offers [`set`](set.md) and [`push_back`](push_back.md) to change
values in place, see [Edits](#edits) below. The source text itself is never written; a read-only document
(`#!cpp Editable == false`, the default) does not carry any of the bookkeeping edits need, and calling `set` or
`push_back` on one fails to compile (`#!cpp static_assert`).
## Template parameters
`BasicJsonType`
: a specialization of [`basic_json`](../basic_json/index.md), for instance [`json`](../json.md) or
[`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md). Only 64-bit `number_integer_t`/`number_unsigned_t` types are supported; this
is checked with a `static_assert`.
`Editable`
: whether the document supports [`set`](set.md) and [`push_back`](push_back.md) (optional, `#!cpp false` by
default). See [Edits](#edits) below.
## Specializations
- [**json_document**](../json_document.md) - read-only documents of the default specialization [`json`](../json.md)
- [**ordered_json_document**](../ordered_json_document.md) - read-only documents of
[`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md)

- [**ordered_json_editable_document**](../ordered_json_editable_document.md) - editable documents of
[`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md)
## Member types
- **view_type** - the type of view returned by [`root()`](root.md) (`#!cpp basic_json_view<BasicJsonType, Editable>`)
- **value_t** - the JSON type enumeration, see [`basic_json::value_t`](../basic_json/value_t.md)

to (`#!cpp Editable` documents only)
- [**push_back**](push_back.md) - append to an array (`#!cpp Editable` documents only)
## Edits
An editable document (`#!cpp Editable == true`) can be changed after parsing, with [`set`](set.md) and
[`push_back`](push_back.md); [`json_editable_document`](../json_editable_document.md) and
[`ordered_json_editable_document`](../ordered_json_editable_document.md) are the corresponding specializations. A few
points apply to every edit:
- **The source text is never written**, and the parsed index never moves: every value keeps the node it was parsed
into, so [views](../basic_json_view/index.md) taken before an edit stay valid, including
[`root()`](root.md). New values (and the element sequences of an edited array/object) go to storage owned by the
document, allocated on demand.
- **A view keeps referring to the same value.** After [`set`](set.md) replaces the value a view refers to, that view
sees the new value; a view of a value that a later edit replaces or drops keeps showing what it last held. An edit
of an array or object, however, **invalidates the iterators taken over it** (its members may now live in a
different sequence), and a string obtained with [`get_string()`](../basic_json_view/get_string.md) stays valid even
as further edits happen (earlier buffers of edited text are kept alive, not overwritten).
- **Values are accepted three ways:** a [`basic_json_view`](../basic_json_view/index.md) of *any* document
(read-only or editable; it is copied, nothing is shared with the source document), a `BasicJsonType` value, or
anything `BasicJsonType` can be constructed from (numbers, strings, `#!cpp bool`, `#!cpp nullptr`, containers, ...).
- [`dump()`](../basic_json_view/dump.md) writes an edited document with members in document order, new members at
the end, and, with [`number_format::source`](../basic_json_view/number_format.md), keeps the spelling of every
number that was not itself edited -- see [Editing a document](../../features/json_view.md#editing-a-document) for
why this matters.
- [`read()`](read.md) discards all edits, [`shrink_to_fit()`](shrink_to_fit.md) does not move the node index once
there are edits, and [`memory_usage()`](memory_usage.md) includes the memory edits use.
[`source_offset()`](../basic_json_view/source_offset.md) of a value introduced by an edit is
`#!cpp static_cast<std::size_t>(-1)`, the same value it reports for a decoded string.

static basic_json_document parse(IteratorType first, IteratorType last,

```
1. Deserialize from a compatible input, borrowing or owning it depending on its value category and type (see Notes).
2. Deserialize from a pair of input iterators.
Both overloads accept exactly what [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) accepts, with the same
`ignore_comments`/`ignore_trailing_commas` options, but build a [`basic_json_document`](index.md) (a flat index into
the input) instead of a tree of `BasicJsonType` values.
## Template parameters
`InputType`
: A compatible input, for instance:
- a `#!cpp std::string`, `#!cpp std::string_view`, or a C-style array of characters
- a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
- a container for which `#!cpp obj.data()` and `#!cpp obj.size()` give contiguous single-byte access, e.g.
`#!cpp std::vector<char>` or `#!cpp std::vector<std::uint8_t>`
- an `#!cpp std::istream` object, or anything else [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) accepts
`IteratorType`
: a compatible iterator type, for instance a pair of pointers such as `ptr` and `ptr + len`, or a pair of
`#!cpp std::string::iterator`
## Parameters
`input` (in)
: Input to parse from.
`allow_exceptions` (in)
: whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
`ignore_comments` (in)
: whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
(`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
`ignore_trailing_commas` (in)
: whether trailing commas in arrays or objects should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or
yield a parse error (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
`first` (in)
: iterator to the start of a character range
`last` (in)
: iterator to the end of a character range
## Return value
The parsed document. If `allow_exceptions` is `#!cpp false` and the input is not valid JSON, the returned document is
discarded; see [`is_discarded`](is_discarded.md).
## Exceptions
Throws the same exception [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) throws for the same input and options --
the same exception id, message, and position -- because on a failing input the library's own parser is run on the
same bytes to produce the diagnostic. Additionally throws
[`out_of_range.416`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range416) if the input is 4 GiB or larger, a size
[`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) does not reject.
## Complexity
Linear in the length of the input.
## Notes
**Ownership.** Whether the document borrows `input` or owns a copy of it depends on its value category and type:
| `input` | ownership |
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
| lvalue byte container (`std::string`, `std::vector<char>`, ...), `std::string_view`, C string, character array | **borrowed** -- `input` must outlive the document |
| rvalue `#!cpp std::string` | **owned**, moved in without a copy |
| rvalue byte container other than `#!cpp std::string` | **owned**, copied |
| stream, wide string, or anything else read through the general input adapter | **owned**, read into a buffer (a stream is read to its end) |
For overload (2), a pair of pointers to single-byte integers (e.g. `#!cpp const char*`, `#!cpp std::uint8_t*`) is
borrowed. From C++20 on, so is any other contiguous iterator over single bytes, such as
`#!cpp std::vector<char>::iterator` or `#!cpp std::string::const_iterator`. Before C++20 these iterators cannot be
told apart from other class-type iterators, so their range is read into an owned buffer, as is any non-contiguous
range (e.g. of a `#!cpp std::list<char>`).
See [`owns_source`](owns_source.md) to check which happened after a call, and the
[feature page](../../features/json_view.md) for the reasoning.
**Numbers.** As for [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md), an integer literal too large for the 64-bit
integer type becomes a floating-point value.

template<typename InputType>
static basic_json_document parse_copy(InputType&& input,
const bool allow_exceptions = true,
const bool ignore_comments = false,
const bool ignore_trailing_commas = false);
```
Deserialize from a compatible input, always taking the document's own copy of it, regardless of the value category or
type of `input`. Unlike [`parse()`](parse.md), the returned document never depends on `input` staying alive.
## Template parameters
`InputType`
: A compatible input; see [`parse`](parse.md#template-parameters).
## Parameters
`input` (in)
: Input to parse from.
`allow_exceptions` (in)
: whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
`ignore_comments` (in)
: whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
(`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
`ignore_trailing_commas` (in)
: whether trailing commas in arrays or objects should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or
yield a parse error (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
## Return value
The parsed document, with [`owns_source()`](owns_source.md) `#!cpp true`. If `allow_exceptions` is `#!cpp false` and
the input is not valid JSON, the returned document is discarded; see [`is_discarded`](is_discarded.md).
## Exceptions
Same as [`parse`](parse.md#exceptions).
## Complexity
Linear in the length of the input.
## Notes
`parse_copy()` accepts and rejects exactly what [`parse()`](parse.md) does, and classifies numbers the same way; it
only differs in that the input is always copied rather than sometimes borrowed. Prefer [`parse()`](parse.md) when the
input's lifetime already covers the document's, since it avoids the copy for borrowed inputs.
## Examples
??? example
The example below returns a document from a function whose local buffer would otherwise not outlive it.

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_document::</small>push_back
```cpp
template<typename V>
view_type push_back(view_type array, V&& value);
```
Appends `value` as a new last element of `array`. A [null](../basic_json_view/is_null.md) `array` first becomes an
empty array, the same way [`set`](set.md) turns a null `object` into an empty object.
`value` is accepted three ways: a [`basic_json_view`](../basic_json_view/index.md) of *any* document -- read-only or
editable, and it does not have to be `array`'s own document -- which is copied so that nothing is shared with the
source document afterward; a `BasicJsonType` value; or anything `BasicJsonType` can be constructed from (numbers,
strings, `#!cpp bool`, `#!cpp nullptr`, containers, ...).
Only an **editable** document (`#!cpp Editable == true`, e.g. [`json_editable_document`](../json_editable_document.md))
has `push_back`; calling it on a read-only `basic_json_document` fails to compile (`#!cpp static_assert`).
## Template parameters
`V`
: the type of `value`, deduced; see above for what is accepted.
## Parameters
`array` (in)
: the array (or null value) to append to
`value` (in)
: the value to append
## Return value
a view of the new last element of `array`, now holding `value`
## Exception safety
Basic exception safety: `value` is fully encoded -- including the checks below -- into storage owned by the document
before anything already reachable from [`root()`](root.md) is touched, so a failure while encoding `value` (an
invalid argument, or `#!cpp std::bad_alloc`) leaves the document completely unchanged, other than memory allocated
for the encoding that is not reclaimed. A failure of a later allocation -- while `array` switches from its parsed
layout to a growable block, or while that block grows, see [Notes](#notes) -- can still leave a partial effect, such
as a null `array` argument already turned into an empty array even though `value` itself was not appended.
## Exceptions
Throws [`type_error.308`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error308) if `array` is neither an array nor
null -- the same message [`BasicJsonType::push_back`](../basic_json/push_back.md) throws for the same type. Throws
[`invalid_iterator.202`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator202) ("view does not belong to this
document") if `array` is a [discarded](../basic_json_view/is_discarded.md) view or a view of a *different* document.
Throws [`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302) if `value` is a
[discarded](../basic_json_view/is_discarded.md) view or a [discarded](../basic_json/is_discarded.md) `BasicJsonType`
value, and [`type_error.319`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error319) if `value` is (or contains) a
binary value -- `BasicJsonType` can hold one, but a `json_document` cannot. Throws
[`type_error.316`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error316) if `value` is (or contains) a string that is
not valid UTF-8, with the same message [`BasicJsonType::dump()`](../basic_json/dump.md) gives for that string.
## Complexity
Amortized constant, plus time linear in the size of `value` to encode it into the document's storage (constant for
a scalar, linear in the number of nested values for an array or object): the elements of `array` move to a growable
block of links the first time it is appended to (or [`set`](set.md) on), and that block itself grows -- doubling its
capacity, so the cost of growing it amortizes to constant per element -- only once it runs out of room. See
[Notes](#notes).
## Notes
Like [`set`](set.md) on a member or an element, `push_back` never moves an existing element itself -- only where
`array`'s *links* to its elements live -- so a view of an existing element of `array` stays valid across a
`push_back`, but any iterator already taken over `array` is invalidated, since it was walking the old layout. See
[Edits](index.md#edits) for what stays valid across an edit in general.
## Examples
??? example
The example below appends records to an array one at a time, as they might arrive from a stream of events,
without ever building a `BasicJsonType` value for the array or for the records already in it, and shows that a
view taken from an earlier `push_back` still refers to the same element once later ones have run.
```cpp
--8<-- "examples/basic_json_document__push_back.cpp"
```
Output:
```json
--8<-- "examples/basic_json_document__push_back.output"

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_document::</small>read
```cpp
template<typename InputType>
void read(InputType&& input,
const bool allow_exceptions = true,
const bool ignore_comments = false,
const bool ignore_trailing_commas = false);
```
(Re-)parses `input` into `#!cpp *this`, discarding the document's previous value and reusing its memory (the node
index, the decoded-string buffer, and, if applicable, the owned copy of the text) rather than allocating a fresh
document. [`parse()`](parse.md) is implemented in terms of this function, applied to a default-constructed document.
## Template parameters
`InputType`
: A compatible input; see [`parse`](parse.md#template-parameters).
## Parameters
`input` (in)
: Input to parse from.
`allow_exceptions` (in)
: whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
`ignore_comments` (in)
: whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
(`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
`ignore_trailing_commas` (in)
: whether trailing commas in arrays or objects should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or
yield a parse error (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
## Exceptions
Same as [`parse`](parse.md#exceptions).
## Complexity
Linear in the length of the input.
## Notes
Every view taken from `#!cpp *this` before the call -- including the previous [`root()`](root.md) -- is invalidated,
whether or not the new parse succeeds; take fresh views from [`root()`](root.md) afterward.
`input` is borrowed or owned by the same rules as [`parse()`](parse.md#notes); a document can borrow on one call and
own on the next, since ownership is decided freshly each time.

```
Only an **editable** document (`#!cpp Editable == true`, e.g. [`json_editable_document`](../json_editable_document.md))
has `set`; calling it on a read-only `basic_json_document` fails to compile (`#!cpp static_assert`).
1. Replaces the value `target` refers to with `value`.
2. Sets the member `key` of the object `object` to `value`: assigns it if `object` already has a member with this
key -- the first one, should the key occur more than once, and the later duplicates are then dropped (see the
[Notes](#notes) below) -- or appends a new member at the end otherwise. A [null](../basic_json_view/is_null.md)
`object` first becomes an empty object.
3. Assigns `value` to the element at index `idx` of the array `array`, which must already exist (`#!cpp idx <
array.size()`).
4. Sets the value the JSON pointer `ptr` refers to, relative to [`root()`](root.md), to `value`. The *parent* of the
target must already exist: an object member is set as in 2. (added if it does not exist yet), an array element is
assigned as in 3., and a last reference token of `#!cpp "-"`, or equal to the size of the array, appends `value`
instead, exactly as [`push_back`](push_back.md) would. An empty `ptr` sets [`root()`](root.md) itself, as in 1.
In every overload, `value` is accepted three ways: a [`basic_json_view`](../basic_json_view/index.md) of *any*
document -- read-only or editable, and it does not have to be `target`'s/`object`'s/`array`'s own document -- which
is copied so that nothing is shared with the source document afterward; a `BasicJsonType` value; or anything
`BasicJsonType` can be constructed from (numbers, strings, `#!cpp bool`, `#!cpp nullptr`, containers, ...).
## Template parameters
`V`
: the type of `value`, deduced; see above for what is accepted.
`I`
: an integral type other than `#!cpp bool`, deduced (overloads taking a `#!cpp bool` or a non-integral type for
`idx` do not participate in overload resolution).
## Parameters
`target` (in)
: the value to replace
`object` (in)
: the object (or null value) whose member to set
`array` (in)
: the array whose element to assign
`key` (in)
: the key of the member to set
`idx` (in)
: the index of the element to assign; a negative value throws (see [Exceptions](#exceptions))
`ptr` (in)
: a JSON pointer to the value to set, relative to `root()`
`value` (in)
: the new value
## Return value
1. a view of `target`, now holding `value`
2. a view of the member `key` of `object`, now holding `value`
3. a view of the element `idx` of `array`, now holding `value`
4. a view of the value `ptr` refers to, now holding `value`
## Exception safety
Basic exception safety: `value` is fully encoded -- including the checks below -- into storage owned by the document
before anything already reachable from [`root()`](root.md) is touched, so a failure while encoding `value` (an
invalid argument, or `#!cpp std::bad_alloc`) leaves the document completely unchanged, other than memory allocated
for the encoding that is not reclaimed. A failure of a later allocation -- while an edited array or object switches
from its parsed layout to a growable block, see [Notes](#notes) -- can still leave a partial effect, such as a
[null](../basic_json_view/is_null.md) `object`/`array` argument already turned into an empty object/array even
though `value` itself was not linked in.
## Exceptions
1. Throws [`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302) if `value` is a
[discarded](../basic_json_view/is_discarded.md) view, or a [discarded](../basic_json/is_discarded.md)
`BasicJsonType` value (e.g. `#!cpp BasicJsonType(value_t::discarded)`) -- an object or array `value`, of either
kind, is fine and is encoded as a whole subtree.
2. Throws [`type_error.305`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error305) if `object` is neither an object
nor null -- the same message [`operator[]`](../basic_json_view/operator%5B%5D.md) throws for a string argument on
such a value. Throws [`type_error.316`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error316) if `key` is not
valid UTF-8, with the same message [`BasicJsonType::dump()`](../basic_json/dump.md) gives for that string.
Also throws what 1. throws for `value`.
3. Throws `type_error.305` if `array` is not an array -- the same message `operator[]` throws for a numeric argument
on such a value. Throws [`out_of_range.401`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range401) if `idx` is
negative, or if `#!cpp idx >= array.size()`. Also throws what 1. throws for `value`.
4. Throws what [`at`](../basic_json_view/at.md) throws (overload 3) for resolving `ptr`'s parent, except that a
missing object member or an array index equal to the array's size at the very last reference token is not an
error there (it becomes a new member or an appended element) instead of
[`out_of_range.403`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range403)/[`out_of_range.402`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range402).
For the last reference token itself: if the parent is an object (or a primitive value, where it throws
`type_error.305`), throws what 2. throws; if the parent is an array, throws what 3. throws for an index that is
out of range, or, for a token that is not a valid array index,
[`parse_error.106`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error106) (a leading `#!cpp '0'`),
[`parse_error.109`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error109) (not a number),
[`out_of_range.410`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range410) (too large for `size_type`), or
[`out_of_range.404`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range404) (an empty token). Also throws what 1.
throws for `value`.
Every overload also throws [`type_error.319`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error319) if `value` is (or
contains) a binary value -- `BasicJsonType` can hold one, but a `json_document` cannot -- and
[`invalid_iterator.202`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator202) ("view does not belong to this
document") if `target`/`object`/`array` is a [discarded](../basic_json_view/is_discarded.md) view or a view of a
*different* document (overloads 1-3 only; overload 4 always starts from this document's own [`root()`](root.md)).
## Complexity
1. Linear in the size of `value` (encoding it into the document's storage): constant for a scalar, linear in the
number of nested values for an array or object. If `target` is itself an array or object that spans more than one
node in its parent's original, unedited layout, and `value` is a scalar, replacing it additionally costs time
linear in the number of elements of that parent, the *first* time -- see [Notes](#notes).
2. Linear in the number of members of `object`, to find an existing member with `key`, plus the complexity of 1. for
`value`.
3. Constant, plus the complexity of 1. for `value`.
4. Linear in the number of reference tokens of `ptr` and, for each token, in the number of members of the object at
that level or the index into the array (as [`at`](../basic_json_view/at.md)), plus the complexity of 2. or 3. for
the last token.
## Notes
!!! info "Duplicate keys"
If `object` already has more than one member with `key` (2.), the *first* one is assigned `value` and every
later member with the same key is removed -- so that a lookup, an iteration, and
[`materialize()`](../basic_json_view/materialize.md) of `object` afterward all agree on a single value for
`key`, the same way [`operator[]`](../basic_json_view/operator%5B%5D.md) already picks the first occurrence of a
duplicate key for reading. See the [Notes on duplicate keys](../basic_json_view/operator%5B%5D.md#notes) of
`operator[]`.
Setting a member (2.) or an element (3., through 4.) of an array or object whose elements have not been edited
before switches it from its parsed layout to a growable block holding links to its elements; a later
[`push_back`](push_back.md) or `set` on the same container reuses that block, growing it (amortized constant time)
only once it runs out of room. This never moves an element itself -- only where the container's *links* to its
elements live -- so a view of an element stays valid, but any iterator already taken over the container is
invalidated, since it was walking the old layout. See [Edits](index.md#edits) for what stays valid across an edit in
general.
The same switch happens, for the same reason, when overload 1. replaces a multi-node array/object value with a
scalar: the *parent's* element sequence is what has to switch to links, not `target` itself, because the parent
originally stepped over `target`'s whole subtree by its node count, which no longer applies once `target` is a
one-node scalar.
## Examples
??? example "Example: (1)/(2)/(3)/(4) replace a value, set a member, assign an element, set via a JSON pointer"
The example below edits a small configuration document -- replacing a value, adding an object member, assigning
an array element, and reaching a field through a JSON pointer -- and shows what
[`dump()`](../basic_json_view/dump.md) preserves that is lost once the same edits are made on a `BasicJsonType`
value instead: the order object members were written in, and the exact spelling of a number that was never
touched.

```cpp
void shrink_to_fit();

Releases capacity that is no longer needed, both of the node index and of the buffer for decoded strings (strings that
contained escape sequences), e.g. after [`read()`](read.md) replaced a large document with a much smaller one. Like
`#!cpp std::vector::shrink_to_fit()`, this is a non-binding request: the library may keep more capacity than strictly
necessary.
## Exception safety
Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the document.
## Exceptions
May throw `#!cpp std::bad_alloc` if the reallocation fails; on exception, the document is unchanged.
## Complexity
Linear in [`node_count()`](node_count.md) plus the length of the decoded strings.
## Notes
!!! warning "Invalidates views"
Unlike moving the document, `shrink_to_fit()` **invalidates every view taken from this document before the
call**, including a previously obtained [`root()`](root.md): the node index is moved into a new, smaller
allocation, and the old one is freed. Take a fresh view from [`root()`](root.md) after calling this function.
This is unlike `#!cpp std::vector::shrink_to_fit()`, which promises nothing about validity but in practice often
leaves iterators alone when it did not need to reallocate; here, an implementation that avoids a reallocation when
possible would be an internal optimization only, not a guarantee to rely on.

- Throws [`out_of_range.403`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range403) if a reference token names
an object member that does not exist.
- Throws [`out_of_range.404`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range404) if `ptr` cannot be resolved
because a reference token is used on a primitive value.
None of these exceptions carry a [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../macros/json_diagnostics.md) path: the view has no
`BasicJsonType` value to point at, so the exception is created without one, even if `BasicJsonType` was built with
`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS` enabled.
## Complexity
1. Linear in the number of members: as for [`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md), members are compared one after
another, in document order, stopping at the first match. Each comparison first checks the key's length --
already known from the index, without reading the key bytes -- before comparing its content.
Objects with 128 or more members get a hash index while parsing, so that a lookup in them takes constant time
on average.
2. Linear in `idx`: elements are skipped one at a time from the first one, since they are not a fixed size in the
index (unlike `BasicJsonType`'s array, which is random-access).
3. Linear in the number of reference tokens of `ptr` and, for each token, in the number of members of the object at
that level (as 1.) or the index into the array (as 2.).
## Notes
Unlike [`operator[]`](operator[].md), which returns a [discarded](is_discarded.md) view for a missing key or an
out-of-range index, `at` always throws -- exactly as `BasicJsonType::at` does, and with the same messages, so
existing error handling written against `BasicJsonType::at` keeps working unchanged when switched to a view. This
also holds for overload 3: unlike [`operator[]`](operator[].md) with a JSON pointer, which returns a discarded view
for a missing key or an out-of-range index, `at` throws for those too (`out_of_range.403`/`out_of_range.401`).
## Examples
??? example "Example: (1)/(2) access specified element with bounds checking"
The example below reads required fields out of a service configuration with `at`, and shows that the exceptions
it throws -- for a wrong type and for a missing key -- carry the same messages
[`BasicJsonType::at`](../basic_json/at.md) would produce for the same JSON text.

Output:

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>back
```cpp
basic_json_view back() const;
```
Returns the last element of an array, the last member value of an object, or the value itself if it is primitive
(as for [`BasicJsonType::back()`](../basic_json/back.md), a primitive value is a range of one element).
## Return value
The last element or member value. For a primitive value (number, string, boolean), the value itself.
## Exception safety
Strong exception safety: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the view or the document it refers to.
## Exceptions
Throws [`invalid_iterator.214`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator214) if the view is
[null](is_null.md) or [discarded](is_discarded.md), or if it is an empty array or object.
This exception does not carry a [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../macros/json_diagnostics.md) path: the view has no
`BasicJsonType` value to point at, so the exception is created without one, even if `BasicJsonType` was built with
`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS` enabled.
## Complexity
Linear in the size of the array or object: unlike [`front()`](front.md), which only ever looks at the first
element, `back()` has to walk every element to find where they end, since elements are not a fixed size in the
index.
## Notes
Unlike [`BasicJsonType::back()`](../basic_json/back.md), which has undefined behavior for an empty array or object,
`back()` throws `invalid_iterator.214` in that case -- the same way it already does for `#!json null` and for a
discarded view, where `BasicJsonType::back()` also throws.
## Examples
??? example
The example below reads only the final status of a build log with `back()`. Even though `back()` is linear in
the number of events (unlike [`front()`](front.md), which is constant), it still avoids building a

This is the only constructor a caller can use directly. Every other view is obtained from a

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>begin
```cpp
iterator begin() const noexcept;
```
Returns an iterator to the first element of an array, or the first member value of an object, in **document order**
-- the order the values appear in the source text, not sorted by key. A primitive value iterates as a range of one
element (itself); `#!json null` and a [discarded](is_discarded.md) view iterate as an empty range.
## Return value
Iterator to the first element.
## Exception safety
No-throw guarantee: this function never throws exceptions.
## Complexity
Constant.
## Notes
For an object, iteration visits **every** member, including all occurrences of a duplicate key -- unlike
[`operator[]`](operator[].md), [`at`](at.md), [`find`](find.md), [`contains`](contains.md), and [`count`](count.md),
which all resolve to the *first* member with a given key. See the
[Notes on duplicate keys](operator[].md#notes) of `operator[]`.
Because objects are iterated in document order rather than sorted by key, the order seen here can differ from what
iterating the [`materialize()`](materialize.md)d `BasicJsonType` value would produce: a `#!cpp basic_json` object
(`std::map`-backed by default) sorts its keys, while a view does not.
## Examples

```cpp
string_t dump(const int indent = -1,
const char indent_char = ' ',
const bool ensure_ascii = false,
const number_format numbers = number_format::shortest) const;
```
Serializes this value (and its subtree) directly from the flat index, without ever building a `BasicJsonType` value
first. With the default `#!cpp numbers == number_format::shortest`, the result is the same string
[`BasicJsonType::dump`](../basic_json/dump.md) would produce for the value
[`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) builds from the same source text, called with the same `indent`,
`indent_char`, and `ensure_ascii` -- except that members of an object appear in document order rather than sorted by
key, and *every* occurrence of a repeated key is written rather than only the last one (see
[Notes on duplicate keys](operator[].md#notes)). For a `json_view` (whose `BasicJsonType` is not ordered), this means
`dump()` can print an object's members in a different order than [`materialize()`](materialize.md)`.dump()` of the
same subtree.
## Parameters
`indent` (in)
: If `indent` is nonnegative, array elements and object members are pretty-printed with that indent level. An
indent level of `0` only inserts newlines. `-1` (the default) selects the most compact representation.
`indent_char` (in)
: The character used for indentation if `indent` is greater than `0`. The default is ` ` (space).
`ensure_ascii` (in)
: If `ensure_ascii` is `#!cpp true`, all non-ASCII characters in the output are escaped with `\uXXXX` sequences, and
the result consists of ASCII characters only.
`numbers` (in)
: how to write numbers, see [`number_format`](number_format.md): `shortest` (the default) writes them the way
[`BasicJsonType::dump`](../basic_json/dump.md) would; `source` copies every number exactly as it appears in the
source text.
## Return value
string containing the serialization of this value, or `#!cpp "<discarded>"` if the view is
[discarded](is_discarded.md).
## Exception safety
Strong exception safety: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the view or the document it refers to.
## Exceptions
May throw `#!cpp std::bad_alloc` if allocating the output string fails. Unlike
[`BasicJsonType::dump`](../basic_json/dump.md), there is no `error_handler` parameter and no
[`type_error.316`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error316): the view only ever holds text the parser
already validated as UTF-8, so there is nothing to replace or ignore.
## Complexity
Linear in the size of the output text.
## Notes
The walk over the subtree is iterative, so the nesting depth it can write is limited by available memory only, not by
the call stack -- as for [`materialize()`](materialize.md).
Strings are escaped by the same rules as [`BasicJsonType::dump`](../basic_json/dump.md). With
`#!cpp numbers == number_format::shortest`, floats are written with the library's shortest round-trip conversion,
exactly as [`BasicJsonType::dump`](../basic_json/dump.md) would (e.g. `#!cpp 1.5`, `#!cpp 100.0`, `#!cpp 1e+100`), and
integers are copied from the source text -- already canonical in JSON, so this matches their shortest form too --
except that `#!cpp -0` is written as `#!cpp 0`, the way [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) reads it.
`#!cpp number_format::source` copies every number exactly as written in the source text instead, with no exception
for `#!cpp -0` -- `#!cpp 1.50`, `#!cpp 1E2`, `#!cpp -0.0`, `#!cpp -0`, or all digits of an integer literal with more
digits than any number type holds (such a literal is itself classified as a float, see
[What is different](../../features/json_view.md#what-is-different)) -- something `BasicJsonType` cannot do, since
parsing already reduces every number to its parsed value.
## Examples
??? example
The example below forwards a single record out of a larger batch, and re-serializes a configuration file, both
without ever building a `BasicJsonType` value for the surrounding array or for the parts of it that were not
needed. It also shows that [`materialize()`](materialize.md)`.dump()` of the configuration sorts its keys, where
`dump()` on the view keeps the order they appear in the source text.

[`contains()`](contains.md) followed by a second lookup. Events without a match are never materialized.

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>front
```cpp
basic_json_view front() const;
```
Returns the first element of an array, the first member value of an object, or the value itself if it is primitive
(as for [`BasicJsonType::front()`](../basic_json/front.md), a primitive value is a range of one element).
## Return value
The first element or member value. For a primitive value (number, string, boolean), the value itself.
## Exception safety
Strong exception safety: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the view or the document it refers to.
## Exceptions
Throws [`invalid_iterator.214`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator214) if the view is
[null](is_null.md) or [discarded](is_discarded.md), or if it is an empty array or object.
This exception does not carry a [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../macros/json_diagnostics.md) path: the view has no
`BasicJsonType` value to point at, so the exception is created without one, even if `BasicJsonType` was built with
`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS` enabled.
## Complexity
Constant.
## Notes
Unlike [`BasicJsonType::front()`](../basic_json/front.md), which has undefined behavior for an empty array or
object, `front()` throws `invalid_iterator.214` in that case -- the same way it already does for `#!json null` and
for a discarded view, where `BasicJsonType::front()` also throws.

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>get
```cpp
template<typename T>
T get() const;
```
Converts the value to `T`.
For the types below, the conversion works directly on the flat index -- no `BasicJsonType` value is built for it:
- `#!cpp bool`
- arithmetic types other than `#!cpp bool` (from a number; from a boolean, as `#!cpp 0`/`#!cpp 1`, exactly as
[`BasicJsonType::get<T>()`](../basic_json/get.md) converts a boolean)
- `#!cpp std::nullptr_t`
- `#!cpp std::basic_string<char, Traits, Alloc>` (including `string_t`) -- a copy of the string
- [`string_view_t`](index.md#member-types) -- **no copy**: the returned view points into the document's
[`source()`](../basic_json_document/source.md) text, or, for a string that contains escape sequences, into the
document's own buffer of decoded strings (see [`get_string()`](get_string.md))
- `BasicJsonType` -- equivalent to [`materialize()`](materialize.md)
- `basic_json_view` -- returns `#!cpp *this`
- `#!cpp std::vector<U, A>` -- element by element, each converted with `#!cpp get<U>()`; `#!cpp
std::vector<basic_json_view>` keeps a view of every element instead of a value
- `#!cpp std::map<K, V, C, A>` and `#!cpp std::unordered_map<K, V, H, E, A>`, if `K` is constructible from a `#!cpp
(const char*, std::size_t)` pair -- member by member, each value converted with `#!cpp get<V>()`; with a repeated
key, the *last* value is kept, as [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) (and
[`materialize()`](materialize.md)) does; `#!cpp std::map<std::string, basic_json_view>` keeps views of the members
instead of values
Every other `T` -- `#!cpp std::list`, `#!cpp std::pair`, `#!cpp std::array`, enumerations, user types with a
`from_json()`, ... -- is converted by `#!cpp materialize().get<T>()`: the subtree is built into a real `BasicJsonType`
value first (as [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) would), and converted from there exactly as
[`BasicJsonType::get<T>()`](../basic_json/get.md) would convert it.
## Template parameters
`T`
: the type to convert the value to
## Return value
the value, converted to `T`
## Exception safety
Strong exception safety: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the view or the document it refers to.
## Exceptions
- For the directly-converted types listed above (other than `BasicJsonType` and `basic_json_view`, which never
throw): throws [`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302) if the value's type does not
match `T` -- the same exception, with the same message, that [`BasicJsonType::get<T>()`](../basic_json/get.md)
throws for the same JSON type and `T`.
- For `#!cpp std::vector<U, A>`: throws `type_error.302` if the value is not an array; otherwise, whatever converting
an element to `U` throws.
- For `#!cpp std::map`/`#!cpp std::unordered_map`: throws `type_error.302` if the value is not an object; otherwise,
whatever converting a member to the mapped type throws.
- For every other `T`: whatever [`materialize().get<T>()`](../basic_json/get.md) throws -- typically `type_error.302`,
or whatever a user-provided `from_json()` throws.
None of the exceptions thrown directly by this function (the first three bullets above) carry a
[`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../macros/json_diagnostics.md) path: the view has no `BasicJsonType` value to point at. An
exception thrown while converting through `materialize()` (the last bullet) is different: it is thrown by a real
`BasicJsonType` value, so it **does** carry a `JSON_DIAGNOSTICS` path if `BasicJsonType` was built with it enabled.
## Complexity
- `#!cpp bool`, arithmetic types, `#!cpp std::nullptr_t`, [`string_view_t`](index.md#member-types), `basic_json_view`:
constant.
- `#!cpp std::basic_string<char, Traits, Alloc>`: constant, plus one allocation and a copy of the string's bytes.
- `BasicJsonType`: linear in the size of the subtree, see [`materialize()`](materialize.md).
- `#!cpp std::vector<U, A>`: linear in the number of elements, times the complexity of converting one element to `U`.
- `#!cpp std::map`/`#!cpp std::unordered_map`: linear in the number of members for walking them, plus the container's
own insertion cost per member (logarithmic for `#!cpp std::map`, amortized constant for `#!cpp
std::unordered_map`), times the complexity of converting one member to the mapped type.
- every other `T`: linear in the size of the subtree (building the `BasicJsonType` value), plus the complexity of
[`BasicJsonType::get<T>()`](../basic_json/get.md) on it.
## Notes
!!! info "Floating-point values"
A floating-point `T` is converted from the same digits the lexer would see during `#!cpp BasicJsonType::parse()`,
using the same conversion, so the result is bit-for-bit identical to `#!cpp BasicJsonType::parse(text).get<T>()`
for the same source text.
!!! info "Duplicate keys"
`#!cpp std::map`/`#!cpp std::unordered_map` conversions keep the *last* value of a repeated key, like
[`materialize()`](materialize.md) and [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) do. This is the opposite
of [`operator[]`](operator[].md)/[`at`](at.md)/[`find`](find.md)/[`contains`](contains.md), which resolve to the
*first* occurrence (see the [Notes on duplicate keys](operator[].md#notes)).
!!! info "No pointers, references, or implicit conversion"
Unlike `BasicJsonType`, `basic_json_view` has no stored value anywhere to hand out a pointer or a reference to, so
it provides neither `#!cpp get_ptr()`, `#!cpp get_ref()`, nor `#!cpp operator ValueType()`.
[`get_string()`](get_string.md) (equivalently, `#!cpp get<string_view_t>()`) is the zero-copy alternative for
strings.
## Examples
??? example
The example below reads typed fields straight into C++ variables, collects a view of every array element with
`#!cpp get<std::vector<basic_json_view>>()` instead of a value, and converts a nested object into a user type
through its `from_json()` -- which runs on a `BasicJsonType` value `materialize()` builds for just that one
member.

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>get_string
```cpp
string_view_t get_string() const;
```
Returns the string value as a [`string_view_t`](index.md#member-types), without copying it.
## Return value
The string, as a [`string_view_t`](index.md#member-types) that points either into the document's
[`source()`](../basic_json_document/source.md) text (a string with no escape sequences), or into the document's own
buffer of decoded strings (a string that contains escape sequences, such as `#!json "\n"` or `#!json "\u00e9"`, which
had to be decoded once when the document was parsed).
## Exception safety
Strong exception safety: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the view or the document it refers to.
## Exceptions
Throws [`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302) if the value is not a string; example:
`"type must be string, but is array"`.
This exception does not carry a [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../macros/json_diagnostics.md) path: the view has no
`BasicJsonType` value to point at, so the exception is created without one, even if `BasicJsonType` was built with
`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS` enabled.
## Complexity
Constant.
## Notes
`basic_json_view` has no `BasicJsonType` value stored anywhere, so unlike `BasicJsonType`, it has no `get_ref()` to
hand out a reference to a stored `string_t`. `get_string()` (equivalently, [`get<string_view_t>()`](get.md)) is the
zero-copy alternative: [`BasicJsonType::get_ref<const string_t&>()`](../basic_json/get_ref.md) is its closest
counterpart, except that it returns a view instead of a reference to a value that must already exist.
The returned [`string_view_t`](index.md#member-types) is valid exactly as long as the view that produced it -- see the
[validity rules](index.md) of `basic_json_view` -- and, for a string with no escapes, for as long as the document's
source text.
## Examples
??? example
The example below pulls one field out of a JSON text that stands in for a large API response, and shows that no
`#!cpp std::string` was allocated for it: the returned view still points inside the original buffer. A field that
contains an escape sequence cannot point into the original text -- it was decoded once into the document's own
buffer instead -- but still avoids a per-field allocation.

# <small>nlohmann::</small>basic_json_view
<small>Defined in header `<nlohmann/json_view.hpp>`</small>
```cpp
template<typename BasicJsonType, bool Editable = false>
class basic_json_view;
```
A read-only handle to one value of a [`basic_json_document`](../basic_json_document/index.md): two pointers (a pointer
to the document and a pointer into its index), trivially copyable. A view is valid as long as
- the document is alive,
- the document has not been re-parsed with [`read()`](../basic_json_document/read.md) (or
[`parse()`](../basic_json_document/parse.md) into it) or shrunk with
[`shrink_to_fit()`](../basic_json_document/shrink_to_fit.md) since the view was taken, and
- if the document borrows its source text, that text is still alive.
Moving the document itself does not invalidate its views: the index is heap-allocated independently of the
`basic_json_document` object.
`basic_json_view` provides the read-only part of the `BasicJsonType` interface: the type-inspection functions, element
access, lookup, iteration, conversion, and comparison -- [`get<T>()`](get.md), [`get_string()`](get_string.md),
[`number_token()`](number_token.md), and [`materialize()`](materialize.md) to build the `BasicJsonType` value of a
subtree on demand. [`operator[]`](operator%5B%5D.md), [`at`](at.md), [`contains`](contains.md), and
[`value`](value.md) also accept a [`json_pointer`](../json_pointer/index.md). [`operator==`](operator_eq.md) and
[`operator!=`](operator_ne.md) compare two views, or a view and a `BasicJsonType` value, without ever building a
`BasicJsonType` value for a view; no ordering comparison (`#!cpp operator<`) is provided.
`basic_json_view` itself is always read-only -- it never has a `set` or `push_back` of its own. A view of an
**editable** document (`#!cpp Editable == true`) sees every edit made through
[`basic_json_document::set`](../basic_json_document/set.md) and
[`basic_json_document::push_back`](../basic_json_document/push_back.md): once a value is changed, every view that
still refers to it -- including ones taken before the change -- reads the new value. See
[Edits](../basic_json_document/index.md#edits).
## Template parameters
`BasicJsonType`
: a specialization of [`basic_json`](../basic_json/index.md), matching the
[`basic_json_document`](../basic_json_document/index.md) the view was taken from.
`Editable`
: whether the view is of an editable document, matching the [`basic_json_document`](../basic_json_document/index.md)
it was taken from (optional, `#!cpp false` by default). See [Edits](../basic_json_document/index.md#edits).
## Specializations
- [**json_view**](../json_view.md) - views of a [`json_document`](../json_document.md)

## Member types
- **value_t** - the JSON type enumeration, see [`basic_json::value_t`](../basic_json/value_t.md)
- **string_t**, **number_integer_t**, **number_unsigned_t**, **number_float_t**, **json_pointer** - the corresponding
member types of `BasicJsonType`
- **size_type** - `#!cpp std::size_t`
- **string_view_t** - `#!cpp std::string_view` on C++17 and newer, a minimal internal substitute otherwise
- **iterator**, **const_iterator** - a forward iterator over the elements of an array or the member values of an
object, in document order; both names refer to the same type, since a view is always read-only
- **item** - a (key, value) pair produced by [`items()`](items.md)
- [**number_format**](number_format.md) - how [`dump()`](dump.md) writes numbers

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>is_number
```cpp
bool is_number() const noexcept;
```
This function returns `#!cpp true` if and only if the value is a number, i.e. an integer, unsigned integer, or floating-point value. It is defined as `#!cpp is_number_integer() || is_number_float()`.
## Return value
`#!cpp true` if the type is a number, `#!cpp false` otherwise.
## Exception safety
No-throw guarantee: this function never throws exceptions.
## Complexity
Constant.
## Examples
??? example
The example below classifies several parsed documents by the type of their root value, without materializing any
of them into a `BasicJsonType` value.
```cpp
--8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__type_predicates.cpp"
```
Output:
```json
--8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__type_predicates.output"

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>is_number_float
```cpp
bool is_number_float() const noexcept;
```
This function returns `#!cpp true` if and only if the value is a floating-point number.
## Return value
`#!cpp true` if the type is `#!cpp value_t::number_float`, `#!cpp false` otherwise.
## Exception safety
No-throw guarantee: this function never throws exceptions.
## Complexity
Constant.
## Notes
As for [`BasicJsonType::parse`](../basic_json/parse.md), an integer literal that does not fit into the 64-bit
integer type is classified as a floating-point number, so `is_number_float()` can be `#!cpp true` even for an
integer-looking token in the source text.
