NAME

BSON::Code - BSON type wrapper for Javascript code

VERSION

version v1.12.2

SYNOPSIS

    use BSON::Types ':all';
    $code = bson_code( $javascript );
    $code = bson_code( $javascript, $scope );

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a BSON type wrapper for the "Javascript code" type and the "Javascript with Scope" BSON types.

ATTRIBUTES

code

A string containing Javascript code. Defaults to the empty string.

scope

An optional hash reference containing variables in the scope of "code". Defaults to "undef".

METHODS

length

Returns the length of the "code" attribute.

TO_JSON

If the "BSON_EXTJSON" option is true, returns a hashref compatible with MongoDB's extended JSON <https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/extended-json.rst> format, which represents it as a document as follows:

    {"$code" : "<code>"}
    {"$code" : "<code>", "$scope" : { ... } }

If the "BSON_EXTJSON" option is false, an error is thrown, as this value can't otherwise be represented in JSON.
