NAME

bson_reader_t - Streaming BSON Document Reader

SYNOPSIS


#include <bson.h> typedef struct _bson_reader_t bson_reader_t; bson_reader_t *bson_reader_new_from_handle (void *handle, bson_reader_read_func_t rf, bson_reader_destroy_func_t df); bson_reader_t *bson_reader_new_from_fd (int fd, bool close_on_destroy); bson_reader_t *bson_reader_new_from_file (const char *path, bson_error_t *error); bson_reader_t *bson_reader_new_from_data (const uint8_t *data, size_t length); void bson_reader_destroy (bson_reader_t *reader);

DESCRIPTION

bson_reader_t is a structure used for reading a sequence of BSON documents. The sequence can come from a file‐descriptor, memory region, or custom callbacks.
