NAME

SYNOPSIS

11          #include <bson/bson.h>
12
13          typedef struct _bson_writer_t bson_writer_t;
14
15          bson_writer_t *
16          bson_writer_new (uint8_t **buf,
17                           size_t *buflen,
18                           size_t offset,
19                           bson_realloc_func realloc_func,
20                           void *realloc_func_ctx);
21          void
22          bson_writer_destroy (bson_writer_t *writer);
23

DESCRIPTION

25       The bson_writer_t API provides an abstraction for serializing many BSON
26       documents to a single memory region. The memory region may  be  dynami‐
27       cally  allocated  and re-allocated as more memory is demanded. This can
28       be useful when building network packets from a high-level language. For
29       example,  you  can  serialize  a Python Dictionary directly to a single
30       buffer destined for a TCP packet.

EXAMPLE

33          #include <bson/bson.h>
34
35          int
36          main (int argc, char *argv[])
37          {
38             bson_writer_t *writer;
39             uint8_t *buf = NULL;
40             size_t buflen = 0;
41             bson_t *doc;
42
43             writer = bson_writer_new (&buf, &buflen, 0, bson_realloc_ctx, NULL);
44
45             for (i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
46                bson_writer_begin (writer, &doc);
47                BSON_APPEND_INT32 (&doc, "i", i);
48                bson_writer_end (writer);
49             }
50
51             bson_writer_destroy (writer);
52
53             bson_free (buf);
54
55             return 0;
56          }
