# nlohmann::basic_json::to_bson
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
// (1)
|
||
static std::vector<std::uint8_t> to_bson(const basic_json& j);
|
||
|
||
// (2)
|
||
static void to_bson(const basic_json& j, detail::output_adapter<std::uint8_t> o);
|
||
static void to_bson(const basic_json& j, detail::output_adapter<char> o);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
BSON (Binary JSON) is a binary format in which zero or more ordered key/value pairs are stored as a single entity (a so-called document).
|
||
|
||
1. Returns a byte vector containing the BSON serialization.
|
||
1. Writes the BSON serialization to an output adapter.
|
||
|
||
The exact mapping and its limitations are described on a [dedicated page](https://json.nlohmann.me/features/binary_formats/bson/index.md).
|
||
|
||
## Parameters
|
||
|
||
`j` (in) : JSON value to serialize
|
||
|
||
`o` (in) : output adapter to write serialization to
|
||
|
||
## Return value
|
||
|
||
1. BSON serialization as a byte vector
|
||
1. (none)
|
||
|
||
## Exception safety
|
||
|
||
Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
|
||
|
||
## Exceptions
|
||
|
||
- Throws [`type_error.317`](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptiontype_error317) if the top-level type of the JSON value is not an object; example: `"to serialize to BSON, top-level type must be object, but is string"`
|
||
- Throws [`out_of_range.409`](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptionout_of_range409) if a key in the JSON object contains a null byte (code point U+0000); example: `"BSON key cannot contain code point U+0000 (at byte 2)"`
|
||
- Throws [`out_of_range.412`](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptionout_of_range412) if the length of a document, array, string, or binary value exceeds the range of the 32-bit BSON length field; example: `"BSON length 2147483661 exceeds maximum of 2147483647"`
|
||
|
||
## Complexity
|
||
|
||
Proportional to the size of the JSON value `j` multiplied by its maximum nesting depth, `O(n × d)`. BSON length prefixes are computed recursively before nested values are written.
|
||
|
||
## Examples
|
||
|
||
Example
|
||
|
||
The example shows the serialization of a JSON value to a byte vector in BSON format.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
#include <iostream>
|
||
#include <iomanip>
|
||
#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
|
||
|
||
using json = nlohmann::json;
|
||
using namespace nlohmann::literals;
|
||
|
||
int main()
|
||
{
|
||
// create a JSON value
|
||
json j = R"({"compact": true, "schema": 0})"_json;
|
||
|
||
// serialize it to BSON
|
||
std::vector<std::uint8_t> v = json::to_bson(j);
|
||
|
||
// print the vector content
|
||
for (auto& byte : v)
|
||
{
|
||
std::cout << "0x" << std::hex << std::setw(2) << std::setfill('0') << (int)byte << " ";
|
||
}
|
||
std::cout << std::endl;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
0x1b 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x08 0x63 0x6f 0x6d 0x70 0x61 0x63 0x74 0x00 0x01 0x10 0x73 0x63 0x68 0x65 0x6d 0x61 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
