bson_array_as_relaxed_extended_json - Man Page

char *
bson_array_as_relaxed_extended_json (const bson_t *bson, size_t *length);

• bson: A bson_t.
• length: An optional location for the length of the resulting string.

The bson_as_relaxed_extended_json() encodes bson as a UTF-8 string in the relaxed MongoDB Extended JSON format, except the outermost element is encoded as a JSON array, rather than a JSON document.

The caller is responsible for freeing the resulting UTF-8 encoded string by calling bson_free() with the result.

If non-NULL, length will be set to the length of the result in bytes.

If successful, a newly allocated UTF-8 encoded string and length is set.

Upon failure, NULL is returned.

   BSON_APPEND_DOUBLE (&bson, "0", 3.14);
   BSON_APPEND_UTF8 (&bson, "1", "bar");
