Detailed Description

This header defines the types and functions your application uses to read or write JSON objects.

Note: You MUST NOT use any symbols (macros, functions, structures, enums, etc.) prefixed with an underscore ('_') directly in your application code. These symbols are part of Azure SDK's internal implementation; we do not document these symbols and they are subject to change in future versions of the SDK which would break your code.

		az_span	json_buffers[],
		int32_t	number_of_buffers,
		az_json_reader_options const *	options
	)

Initializes an az_json_reader to read the JSON payload contained within the provided set of discontiguous buffers.

Parameters

[out]	out_json_reader	A pointer to an az_json_reader instance to initialize.
[in]	json_buffers	An array of non-contiguous byte buffers, as spans, containing the JSON text to read.
[in]	number_of_buffers	The number of buffer segments provided, i.e. the length of the `json_buffers` array.
[in]	options	[nullable] A reference to an az_json_reader_options structure which defines custom behavior of the az_json_reader. If `NULL` is passed, the reader will use the default options (i.e. az_json_reader_options_default()).

Returns: An az_result value indicating the result of the operation.

Return values

AZ_OK	The az_json_reader is initialized successfully.
other	Initialization failed.

Remarks: The provided array of json buffers must not be empty, as that is invalid JSON, and therefore number_of_buffers must also be greater than 0. The array must also not contain any empty span segments.; An instance of az_json_reader must not outlive the lifetime of the JSON payload within the json_buffers.

◆ az_json_reader_init()

AZ_NODISCARD az_result az_json_reader_init	(	az_json_reader *	out_json_reader,
		az_span	json_buffer,
		az_json_reader_options const *	options
	)

Initializes an az_json_reader to read the JSON payload contained within the provided buffer.

Parameters

[out]	out_json_reader	A pointer to an az_json_reader instance to initialize.
[in]	json_buffer	An az_span over the byte buffer containing the JSON text to read.
[in]	options	[nullable] A reference to an az_json_reader_options structure which defines custom behavior of the az_json_reader. If `NULL` is passed, the reader will use the default options (i.e. az_json_reader_options_default()).

Returns: An az_result value indicating the result of the operation.

Return values

AZ_OK	The az_json_reader is initialized successfully.
other	Initialization failed.

Remarks: The provided json buffer must not be empty, as that is invalid JSON.; An instance of az_json_reader must not outlive the lifetime of the JSON payload within the json_buffer.

◆ az_json_reader_next_token()

AZ_NODISCARD az_result az_json_reader_next_token ( az_json_reader * ref_json_reader )

Reads the next token in the JSON text and updates the reader state.

Parameters

[in,out] ref_json_reader A pointer to an az_json_reader instance containing the JSON to read.

Returns: An az_result value indicating the result of the operation.

Return values

AZ_OK	The token was read successfully.
AZ_ERROR_UNEXPECTED_END	The end of the JSON document is reached.
AZ_ERROR_UNEXPECTED_CHAR	An invalid character is detected.
AZ_ERROR_JSON_READER_DONE	No more JSON text left to process.

◆ az_json_reader_options_default()

AZ_NODISCARD AZ_INLINE az_json_reader_options az_json_reader_options_default ( )

Gets the default json reader options which reads the JSON strictly according to the JSON RFC.

Call this to obtain an initialized az_json_reader_options structure that can be modified and passed to az_json_reader_init().

Returns: The default az_json_reader_options.

◆ az_json_reader_skip_children()

AZ_ERROR_UNEXPECTED_END	The end of the JSON document is reached.
AZ_ERROR_UNEXPECTED_CHAR	An invalid character is detected.

Remarks: If the current token kind is a property name, the reader first moves to the property value. Then, if the token kind is start of an object or array, the reader moves to the matching end object or array. For all other token kinds, the reader doesn't move and returns AZ_OK.

◆ az_json_token_copy_into_span()

az_span az_json_token_copy_into_span	(	az_json_token const *	json_token,
		az_span	destination

[in,out]	ref_json_writer	A pointer to an az_json_writer instance containing the buffer to append the string value to.
[in]	value	The UTF-8 encoded value to be written as a JSON string. The value is escaped before writing.

Remarks: If value is AZ_SPAN_EMPTY, the empty JSON string value is written (i.e. "").

Returns: An az_result value indicating the result of the operation.

Return values

AZ_OK	The string value was appended successfully.
AZ_ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_SPACE	The buffer is too small.

◆ az_json_writer_chunked_init()

AZ_NODISCARD az_result az_json_writer_chunked_init	(	az_json_writer *	out_json_writer,
		az_span	first_destination_buffer,
		az_span_allocator_fn	allocator_callback,
		void *	user_context,
		az_json_writer_options const *	options
	)

Initializes an az_json_writer which writes JSON text into a destination that can contain non-contiguous buffers.

Parameters

[out]	out_json_writer	A pointer to an az_json_writer the instance to initialize.
[in]	first_destination_buffer	An az_span over the byte buffer where the JSON text is to be written at the start.
[in]	allocator_callback	An az_span_allocator_fn callback function that provides the destination span to write the JSON text to once the previous buffer is full or too small to contain the next token.
	user_context	A context specific user-defined struct or set of fields that is passed through to calls to the az_span_allocator_fn.
[in]	options	[nullable] A reference to an az_json_writer_options structure which defines custom behavior of the az_json_writer. If `NULL` is passed, the writer will use the default options (i.e. az_json_writer_options_default()).

Returns: An az_result value indicating the result of the operation.

Return values

AZ_OK	The az_json_writer is initialized successfully.
other	Failure.

◆ az_json_writer_get_bytes_used_in_destination()

AZ_NODISCARD AZ_INLINE az_span az_json_writer_get_bytes_used_in_destination ( az_json_writer const * json_writer )

Returns the az_span containing the JSON text written to the underlying buffer so far, in the last provided destination buffer.

Parameters

[in] json_writer A pointer to an az_json_writer instance wrapping the destination buffer.

Note: Do NOT modify or override the contents of the returned az_span unless you are no longer writing JSON text into it.

Returns: An az_span containing the JSON text built so far.

Remarks: This function returns the entire JSON text when it fits in the first provided buffer, where the destination is a single, contiguous buffer. When the destination can be a set of non-contiguous buffers (using az_json_writer_chunked_init()), and the JSON is larger than the first provided destination span, this function only returns the text written into the last provided destination buffer from the allocator callback.

◆ az_json_writer_init()

AZ_NODISCARD az_result az_json_writer_init	(	az_json_writer *	out_json_writer,
		az_span	destination_buffer,
		az_json_writer_options const *	options
	)

Initializes an az_json_writer which writes JSON text into a buffer.

Parameters

[out]	out_json_writer	A pointer to an az_json_writer instance to initialize.
	destination_buffer	An az_span over the byte buffer where the JSON text is to be written.
[in]	options	[nullable] A reference to an az_json_writer_options structure which defines custom behavior of the az_json_writer. If `NULL` is passed, the writer will use the default options (i.e. az_json_writer_options_default()).

Returns: An az_result value indicating the result of the operation.

Return values

AZ_OK	az_json_writer is initialized successfully.
other	Initialization failed.

◆ az_json_writer_options_default()

AZ_NODISCARD AZ_INLINE az_json_writer_options az_json_writer_options_default ( )

Gets the default json writer options which builds minimized JSON (with no extra white space) according to the JSON RFC.

Call this to obtain an initialized az_json_writer_options structure that can be modified and passed to az_json_writer_init().

Returns: The default az_json_writer_options.
