 The "Check amalgamation" workflow fails if the file is out of date.

-### `meson.build`
+### `meson.build` and `meson_options.txt`

-The build definition for the [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com) build system.
+Meson build definitions suitable for use as a subproject ("wrap" in Meson terminology).
+
+Projects wishing to use the wrap can execute:
+```sh
+meson wrap install nlohmann_json
+```
+
+Which allows Meson to build from source when a system provided dependency isn't available.
+
+To build directly:
+```sh
+meson setup builddir
+ninja -C builddir
+```
+
+`meson_options.txt` defines the options, which mirror the CMake options that change the library's target (for example,
+`-DDiagnostics=true`). Meson requires this file next to `meson.build`, so it is also part of `include.zip`.
+
+When installing, `meson.build` installs the headers, a pkg-config file, and the CMake package config files, so that
+`find_package(nlohmann_json)` works. As Meson cannot generate `nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake` itself, it is created from
+the template `cmake/nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake.in`, which is only used by Meson.

-
-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

-
-## Template parameters

-
-## Parameters
-
-`input` (in)
-:   Input to check.

-

-## Exception safety

-   were removed; `#!cpp 0` if `object` has no member with this key.
-2. Removes the element at index `idx` of `array`, which must already exist (`#!cpp idx < array.size()`).
-3. Removes the value the JSON pointer `ptr` refers to, relative to [`root()`](root.md), and returns how many values
-   were removed: the *parent* of the target must already exist, and the target itself is removed as in 1. (an object
-   member; `#!cpp 0` or more) or 2. (an array element; always `#!cpp 1`). `ptr` must not be empty -- [`root()`](root.md)
-   itself cannot be erased.
-
-## Template parameters
-
-`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
-
-`object` (in)
-:   the object to remove a member of
-
-`array` (in)
-:   the array to remove an element of
-
-`key` (in)
-:   the key of the member(s) to remove

-`idx` (in)
-:   the index of the element to remove; a negative value throws (see [Exceptions](#exceptions))
-
-`ptr` (in)
-:   a JSON pointer to the value to remove, relative to `root()`
-
-## Return value
-
-1. the number of removed members (`#!cpp 0` if `object` had none with this `key`)
-2. (nothing)
-3. the number of removed values (`#!cpp 0` or more for an object member, always `#!cpp 1` for an array element)
-
-## Exceptions
-
-1. Throws [`type_error.307`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error307) if `object` is not an object -- the
-   same message [`BasicJsonType::erase`](../basic_json/erase.md) throws for the same type.
-2. Throws `type_error.307` if `array` is not an array. Throws
-   [`out_of_range.401`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range401) if `idx` is negative, or if
-   `#!cpp idx >= array.size()`.
-3. Throws [`out_of_range.405`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range405) ("JSON pointer has no parent")
-   if `ptr` is empty. Throws what [`at`](../basic_json_view/at.md) throws (overload 3) for resolving `ptr`'s parent.
-   For the last reference token itself: if the parent is an array, throws what 2. 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); otherwise (an
-   object, or a primitive value the pointer's parent resolves to) throws what 1. throws.
-
-Every overload also throws [`invalid_iterator.202`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator202) ("view
-does not belong to this document") if `object`/`array` is a [discarded](../basic_json_view/is_discarded.md) view or a
-view of a *different* document (overloads 1-2 only; overload 3 always starts from this document's own
-[`root()`](root.md)).
-
-## Complexity
-
-1. Linear in the number of members of `object`.
-2. Linear in the number of elements of `array` at or after `idx` (they move one slot over).
-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 or the index into the array (as [`at`](../basic_json_view/at.md)), plus the complexity of 1. or 2. for
-   the last token.
-
-## Notes
-
-!!! info "Duplicate keys"
-
-    Overload 1. removes *every* member with `key`, not just the first -- unlike [`set`](set.md), which assigns the
-    first occurrence and drops the rest. This is why it returns a count rather than a single view: there may be
-    more than one member removed, or none.
-
-Like [`set`](set.md) and [`push_back`](push_back.md), `erase` never moves an element's *value*: a view still
-referring to a removed member or element keeps showing what it last held (see [Edits](index.md#edits)) -- it just no
-longer appears when `array`/`object` is read, dumped, or iterated. Removing an element of `array` (2.) does shift the
-*links* to the elements after it, the same way `insert`, `set`, or `push_back` on the same array would; any iterator
-already taken over `array`/`object` is invalidated by an erase, since it was walking the old layout.
-
-## Examples
-
-??? example
-
-    The example below drops a deprecated field and a decommissioned entry from a configuration document -- using all
-    three overloads -- and shows what stays intact that would not with a plain `json`/`ordered_json` value: the order
-    of the fields around the ones removed, and the exact spelling of a number that was never touched.

-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

-`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`

-bookkeeping edits need, and calling any of them on one fails to compile (`#!cpp static_assert`).

-
-`BasicJsonType`
-:   a specialization of [`basic_json`](../basic_json/index.md), for instance [`json`](../json.md) or

-## Edits
-
-An editable document (`#!cpp Editable == true`) can be changed after parsing, with [`set`](set.md),
-[`push_back`](push_back.md), [`insert`](insert.md), and [`erase`](erase.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.

-# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_document::</small>insert
-
-```cpp
-template<typename I, typename V>
-view_type insert(view_type array, I idx, V&& value);
-```
-
-Only an **editable** document (`#!cpp Editable == true`, e.g. [`json_editable_document`](../json_editable_document.md))
-has `insert`; calling it on a read-only `basic_json_document` fails to compile (`#!cpp static_assert`).
-
-Inserts `value` into `array` as a new element before position `idx`, which must not be past the end
-(`#!cpp idx <= array.size()`; `#!cpp idx == array.size()` appends, like [`push_back`](push_back.md)). Unlike
-[`push_back`](push_back.md), a [null](../basic_json_view/is_null.md) `array` does *not* first become an empty array:
-`array` must already be an array.
-
-`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, ...).
-
-## Template parameters
-
-`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).
-
-`V`
-:   the type of `value`, deduced; see above for what is accepted.
-
-## Parameters
-
-`array` (in)
-:   the array to insert into
-
-`idx` (in)
-:   the position to insert `value` before; a negative value throws (see [Exceptions](#exceptions))
-
-`value` (in)
-:   the value to insert
-
-## Return value
-
-a view of the new element, 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 `array` already
-switched to that layout even though `value` itself was not inserted.
-
-## Exceptions
-
-Throws [`type_error.309`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error309) if `array` is not an array -- the same
-message [`BasicJsonType::insert`](../basic_json/insert.md) throws for the same type; a null `array` throws this too
-(see above). Throws [`out_of_range.401`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range401) if `idx` is negative,
-or if `#!cpp idx > array.size()`. 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
-
-Linear in the number of elements of `array` at or after `idx` (they move one slot over), 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): like [`push_back`](push_back.md), the elements of `array` move to a growable block
-of links the first time it is inserted into (or [`set`](set.md)/[`push_back`](push_back.md) on), and that block
-grows in amortized constant time; inserting before the end within that block still shifts every later element.
-
-## Notes
-
-Like [`set`](set.md) on a member or an element, `insert` never moves an existing *element's value* -- only where
-`array`'s *links* to its elements live -- so a view of an existing element of `array` stays valid across an
-`insert`, and keeps referring to the same element even though its index shifts. 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 inserts a step into the middle of a deployment plan, without touching the steps that come
-    after it, and shows that a view taken before the insert keeps referring to the same element even though its
-    index shifts -- something a plain `json`/`ordered_json` array, or its `std::vector`-based storage, has no
-    equivalent for.

-                                 const image_check check = image_check::full);

-                                 const image_check check = image_check::full);
-```
-
-1. Reads an image [`save()`](save.md) wrote, from a pointer and a byte count. The image is **borrowed**: `image`
-   must stay alive and unchanged for as long as the returned document, and any view taken from it, is used.
-2. Reads an image from a `#!cpp std::vector`. Also **borrowed** -- equivalent to overload 1 called with
-   `#!cpp image.data()` and `#!cpp image.size()`.
-3. Reads an image, keeping the vector instead of copying it: `image` is moved into the document (no copy), which
-   then owns it for as long as it needs the text and the decoded strings. [`owns_source()`](owns_source.md) is
-   `#!cpp true` afterward.
-
-In every overload, the node index is copied into storage the document itself owns -- so that it is properly aligned,
-and, for an [editable](index.md#edits) document, can be edited -- while the text and the decoded strings stay in
-`image`. The hash indexes [large objects](../../features/json_view.md) use for lookup are rebuilt, exactly as after
-parsing.
-
-## Parameters
-
-`image` (in)
-:   the image [`save()`](save.md) wrote (overloads 1 and 2), or one to take ownership of (overload 3)
-
-`size` (in)
-:   the number of bytes at `image` (overload 1)
-
-`check` (in)
-:   how thoroughly to validate `image` before trusting it; see [`image_check`](#image_check) below (optional,
-    `#!cpp image_check::full` by default)
-
-## Return value
-
-The document read from the image.
-
-## Exception safety
-
-Overloads 1 and 2 give the strong guarantee: `image` is only read, never written, so a thrown exception leaves the
-caller's buffer untouched.
-
-Overload 3 moves `image` into the document *before* validating it, so that a good image is kept without a copy. If
-loading then fails, the partially built document -- and the vector now inside it -- is discarded along with the
-exception, and `image` itself is left **empty**, not restored to what was passed in. Move a copy in instead, or
-validate with overload 2 first, if the original vector must survive a failed load.
-
-## Exceptions
-
-On a big-endian target, throws [`type_error.320`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error320) -- the same
-exception [`save()`](save.md#exceptions) throws there, since the image format is little-endian only.
-
-Otherwise throws [`parse_error.116`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error116) if `image` is not one
-`save()` could have written, or fails the requested `check`:

-| `unknown format`       | the header's magic bytes or version do not match, or a reserved header field is not zero             |
-| `sizes out of range`   | the node count, text size, or decoded-string size the header describes does not fit `size`, or the `#!cpp '\0'` after the text or after the decoded strings is missing |
-| `the check failed`     | `check` is not `#!cpp image_check::none`, and the image fails it -- see [`image_check`](#image_check) |

-## Complexity
-
-Linear in the number of nodes, which are always copied into the document. With `#!cpp check == image_check::full`,
-additionally linear in the combined length of the text and the decoded strings; `#!cpp image_check::bounds` and
-`#!cpp image_check::none` do not read them.
-
-## `image_check`
-
-```cpp
-using image_check = detail::view::image_check;
-
-enum class image_check
-{
-    full,
-    bounds,
-    none
-};
-```
-
-How thoroughly `load()` validates `image` before trusting it.
-
-| value    | checks                                                                                                    | guarantees |
-|----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------|
-| `full`   | everything the parser itself guarantees: structure and bounds; that every string is valid UTF-8 (and, for a string still in the source text, that it contains no quote, backslash, or control character); and that every number token is well-formed and matches the value stored for it | reading and serializing a checked image is safe and always produces valid JSON, exactly as for a parsed document |
-| `bounds` | structure and bounds only -- that every offset and count in the node index stays inside the image            | reading and serializing stay memory-safe, but a crafted image can hold strings that are not valid UTF-8 or that serialize to invalid JSON ([`dump()`](../basic_json_view/dump.md) writes them unchanged or throws [`type_error.316`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error316)), and numbers whose values differ from their text |
-| `none`   | nothing                                                                                                       | images from a trusted source only -- reading a damaged image is undefined behavior |
-
-`full` is the default and the right choice for an image from anything you do not fully control -- a file, a cache
-shared with other processes, a peer on the network. `bounds` skips scanning the text and the decoded strings, so it
-fits a cache your own process just wrote and reads straight back, where damage would mean a bug or a hardware fault
-rather than adversarial input; it still cannot crash or read out of bounds. `none` skips validation entirely and
-should only be used for an image you trust as much as your own memory.
-
-## Notes
-
-**Lifetime.** Overloads 1 and 2 borrow `image`: it must stay alive and byte-for-byte unchanged for as long as the
-returned document, and any [view](../basic_json_view/index.md) taken from it, is used -- exactly like a document
-[`parse()`](parse.md) borrowed its input for. Overload 3 avoids this by keeping the vector itself; see
-[`owns_source`](owns_source.md).
-
-!!! warning "Experimental"
-
-    The image format is versioned but not yet stable, and may change in an incompatible way before it is declared
-    stable; `load()` already rejects an image written by a different format version with `parse_error.116`
-    ("unknown format"). Use images to cache a document within one build of the library, or to hand one to another
-    process running the *same* build on the *same* (little-endian) machine -- not as a long-term storage format.
-
-**What `image_check::bounds` does not guarantee.** A bounds-checked image can never make `load()`,
-[`root()`](root.md), element access, or [`materialize()`](../basic_json_view/materialize.md) read outside the image,
-so those stay safe on a damaged one. It does *not* guarantee that the image describes valid JSON: a string
-that a `full` check would have rejected can make [`dump()`](../basic_json_view/dump.md) write invalid UTF-8 or invalid
-JSON, or throw `type_error.316`, and a number can read back with a value that does not match how it is spelled. Reserve `bounds` for images you already trust to be well-formed, and use it
-only to skip the extra scan.
-
-## Examples
-
-??? example "Caching a document, ownership, and a rejected image"
-
-    The example below saves a parsed document as an image, checks that `load()` reproduces the original
-    [`dump()`](../basic_json_view/dump.md) without parsing, and shows the difference between
-    `load(std::move(image))` (owned) and `load(image)` (borrowed). It then damages one byte of the image and shows
-    `image_check::full` rejecting it with `parse_error.116`, while `image_check::bounds` -- meant for a cache the
-    process already trusts -- still reads it without going out of bounds.

-
-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.

-Deserialize from a compatible input, always taking the document's own copy of it, regardless of the value category or

-
-## Template parameters

-
-## Notes
-
-`parse_copy()` accepts and rejects exactly what [`parse()`](parse.md) does, and classifies numbers the same way; 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
-std::vector<std::uint8_t> save() const;

-
-Writes the document as an *image*: a byte buffer that [`load`](load.md) reads back without parsing. The image holds
-the node index, the source text (plus, for an edited document, the number tokens edits wrote), and the decoded
-strings (plus the strings edits wrote) -- everything [`root()`](root.md) needs, with nothing left to parse.
-
-An edited document is written in its *current* state, with its values in document order, the way the library's own
-parser would have produced them for that JSON text: a member [`set`](set.md) added goes at the end, an
-[`erase`](erase.md)d member leaves no trace, and a float that is not finite (NaN or positive/negative infinity)
-becomes null, the same substitution [`dump()`](../basic_json_view/dump.md) makes. The same document always saves to
-the same bytes -- also across `BasicJsonType` and `#!cpp Editable`, since the image reflects document order and
-values only, not which specialization produced them.

-## Return value
-
-The image, as a `#!cpp std::vector<std::uint8_t>`. Pass it, or a pointer to its data together with its size, to
-[`load`](load.md) to read the document back.
-
-## Exception safety
-
-Strong guarantee: `save()` does not modify `#!cpp *this` (it is `#!cpp const`), so if it throws, the document is left

-
-## Exceptions
-
-Throws [`type_error.320`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error320) if the document is

-[`read()`](read.md) with `allow_exceptions == false` left discarded.
-
-On a big-endian target, throws `type_error.320` with a different message instead: the image format is little-endian
-only (see [Notes](#notes)).
-
-Throws [`out_of_range.416`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range416) if the node count, the text, or
-the decoded strings of the image would individually reach 4 GiB -- the same 32-bit offsets
-[`parse()`](parse.md#exceptions) and, for edits, [`set`](set.md)/[`push_back`](push_back.md) are already limited to.

-## Complexity
-
-Linear in the size of the document: the number of nodes, plus the length of the text and the decoded strings that end
-up in the image.
-
-## Notes
-
-**Format.** The image begins with a 64-byte header (the magic bytes `#!cpp "NJVI"`, a version number, the node count,
-and the sizes of the text and the decoded strings, all little-endian), followed by the nodes
-([16 bytes each](../../home/architecture.md#node-index-of-json-views)), the text and a `#!cpp '\0'`, and the decoded
-strings and a `#!cpp '\0'`. [`load`](load.md) checks the header, and the sizes it describes, before reading anything
-else -- see [`load`'s Exceptions](load.md#exceptions).
-
-!!! warning "Experimental"
-
-    The image format is versioned but not yet stable: it may change in an incompatible way before it is declared
-    stable. Use images to cache a document within one build of the library, or to hand one to another process running
-    the *same* build on the *same* (little-endian) machine -- not as a long-term storage format. Keep the original
-    JSON text if you need to read a saved document back with a future library version.
-
-**Little-endian only.** The image is written as raw little-endian bytes, with no byte-swapping. `save()` (and
-[`load`](load.md)) throw `type_error.320` on a big-endian target rather than silently produce bytes a big-endian
-reader could not interpret correctly.
-
-## Examples
-
-??? example "Caching a parsed document as an image"
-
-    The example below saves a parsed configuration as an image -- the way a service might cache one to answer later
-    requests without parsing the text again -- and confirms that loading it back gives exactly the same result as
-    parsing did, and that saving is deterministic.

-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.

-!!! warning "Invalidates views"
-
-    Unlike moving the document, `shrink_to_fit()` **invalidates every view taken from this document before the

-
-This is unlike `#!cpp std::vector::shrink_to_fit()`, which promises nothing about validity but in practice often

-## Exceptions
-
-1. The function can throw the following exceptions, both with the same message as the corresponding call to
-   [`BasicJsonType::at`](../basic_json/at.md):
-    - Throws [`type_error.304`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error304) if the value is not an object.
-    - Throws [`out_of_range.403`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range403) if no member has key `key`.
-2. The function can throw the following exceptions, both with the same message as the corresponding call to
-   [`BasicJsonType::at`](../basic_json/at.md):
-    - Throws [`type_error.304`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error304) if the value is not an array.
-    - Throws [`out_of_range.401`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range401) if `#!cpp idx >= size()`.
-3. The function can throw the following exceptions, all with the same message as the corresponding call to
-   [`BasicJsonType::at`](../basic_json/at.md):
-    - Throws [`parse_error.106`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error106) if an array index in `ptr`
-      begins with `#!cpp '0'`.
-    - Throws [`parse_error.109`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error109) if an array index in `ptr` is
-      not a number.
-    - Throws [`out_of_range.401`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range401) if an array index in `ptr`
-      is out of range.
-    - Throws [`out_of_range.402`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range402) if a reference token is
-      `#!cpp "-"` at an array -- `at` never inserts an element, so `#!cpp "-"` is always invalid.
-    - 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`).

-## 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

-2. Checks whether a JSON pointer `ptr` can be resolved, starting at this value.
-
-## Parameters
-
-`key` (in)
-:   key value to check its existence
-
-`ptr` (in)
-:   JSON pointer to check its existence
-
-## Return value
-
-1. `#!cpp true` if the value is an object and has a member with key `key`, `#!cpp false` otherwise

-
-## Exception safety

-
-1. Linear in the number of members: as for [`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md), members are compared one after

-
-    If `#!cpp v.contains(key)` returns `#!cpp true`, then `#!cpp v[key]` is not [discarded](is_discarded.md). If

-    throw.
-
-!!! info "Overload 2 never throws"
-
-    Unlike [`BasicJsonType::contains(const json_pointer&)`](../basic_json/contains.md), which can throw for certain
-    malformed pointers (for instance an empty array-index reference token), overload 2 never throws: a missing key,
-    an out-of-range or malformed array index, a `#!cpp "-"` index, or a reference token used on a primitive all
-    simply make it return `#!cpp false`.
-
-## Examples
-
-??? example "Example: (1) check with key"

-    The example below counts how many of a batch of records carry an optional `retry_of` field, using `contains()`

-```
-
-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

-    without ever building a `BasicJsonType` value for the surrounding array or for the parts of it that were not

-# <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.
-
-    ```cpp
-    --8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__get.cpp"
-    ```
-
-    Output:

-# <small>nlohmann::basic_json_view::</small>get_string

-```cpp

-
-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

-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>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).

- **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

Niels Lohmann	9cbe62efb0	Fix the Meson CMake target for includedir or datadir outside the prefix nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake always prepended the prefix computed from the file's location to includedir. With an absolute includedir outside the prefix (as Nix passes for packages with a separate dev output), this gave "<prefix>//abs/include"; with an absolute datadir outside the prefix, the number of ".." was derived from the absolute path and the prefix resolved to "/". In both cases find_package(nlohmann_json) failed with "Imported target includes non-existent path". Use the absolute include directory in these cases, as CMake's install(EXPORT) does, and check it in CI. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>	2026-09-27 18:23:27 +02:00

Niels Lohmann	71b4eaf743	Document the Meson options and check them in CI Describe the options of meson.build in FILES.md and in the Meson section of the package manager documentation, which so far said that a Meson installation always uses the default configuration. The ci_meson_install job now also installs with non-default options and checks that the headers of the multi-header version are installed, that the definitions reach the pkg-config file and the CMake target, and that find_package still works. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>	2026-09-27 14:51:27 +02:00
Niels Lohmann	2790175d79	Add the JSON_* definitions to the CMake pkg-config file The installed pkg-config file only had the include path, so a pkg-config user of a library installed with, for example, -DJSON_Diagnostics=ON compiled without JSON_DIAGNOSTICS=1, unlike users of the CMake target. Append the same definitions the target has. For the default options, the file is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>	2026-09-27 14:50:39 +02:00
Niels Lohmann	cc9fafa0e1	Complete the Meson options and match CMake's compile definitions Finish the Meson changes from #4452: - Offer all eight options that change the CMake target, named like the CMake options without the JSON_ prefix. MultipleHeaders defaults to false so that existing Meson users keep the single header. - Add a compile definition only for an option that differs from its default, exactly as target_compile_definitions does. Before, the GlobalUDLs and ImplicitConversions definitions were inverted and were also added in the default configuration. - Keep the nlohmann_json_multiple_headers dependency that earlier versions of meson.build provided. - Put the definitions into the pkg-config file and the Meson-generated nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake, and install the pkg-config file into <datadir>/pkgconfig like CMake does. - Ship meson_options.txt in include.zip, since meson.build now reads options and the zip is documented as a Meson subproject.

Dylan Baker	f012b85d06	meson: use `install_subdir` for headers This makes a single call to install the entire directory, and doesn't need an update if any new headers are added. It also will simplify bringing the Meson and CMake builds into allignment on how they handle the multi-header vs single-header setups.

Niels Lohmann	0d2240ad1e	Install CMake package config files with Meson A Meson installation only provided the headers and a pkg-config file, so consumers using find_package(nlohmann_json) could not find the library. Meson now also installs nlohmann_jsonConfig.cmake and nlohmann_jsonConfigVersion.cmake from the existing templates, plus a static nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake that defines the header-only imported target with a relocatable include path. A new CI job installs with Meson and builds tests/cmake_import/project against the result. Closes #3885 Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>	2026-09-27 14:25:10 +02:00
