Member Function Documentation

void bsoncxx::validator::check_dollar_keys ( bool  check_dollar_keys)

Verifies that document keys are not preceeded with '$'.

Such keys are reserved for MongoDB internal use.

Parameters
check_dollar_keysIf true, keys starting with '$' will be treated as invalid.
bool bsoncxx::validator::check_dollar_keys ( ) const

Getter for the current check_dollar_keys value of the underlying validator.

Returns
True if keys starting with '$' will be treated as invalid.
void bsoncxx::validator::check_dot_keys ( bool  check_dot_keys)

Verifies that document keys do not contain any '.

' characters. The dot character is illegal in MongoDB keys.

Parameters
check_dollar_keysIf true, keys containing '.' will be treated as invalid.
bool bsoncxx::validator::check_dot_keys ( ) const

Getter for the current check_dot_keys value of the underlying validator.

Returns
True if keys containing '.' will be treated as invalid.
void bsoncxx::validator::check_utf8 ( bool  check_utf8)

Verify that all keys and string values are valid UTF-8.

Parameters
check_utf8If true, UTF-8 validation is performed.
bool bsoncxx::validator::check_utf8 ( ) const

Getter for the current check_utf8 value of the underlying validator.

Returns
True if UTF-8 validation is performed.
void bsoncxx::validator::check_utf8_allow_null ( bool  check_utf8_allow_null)

Verify that all keys and string values are valid UTF-8, but allow null bytes.

This is generally bad practice, but some languages such as Python, can sennd UTF-8 encoded strings with null bytes.

Parameters
check_utf8_allow_nullIf true, UTF-8 validation (with null bytes allowed) is performed.
bool bsoncxx::validator::check_utf8_allow_null ( ) const

Getter for the current check_utf8_allow_null value of the underlying validator.

Returns
True if UTF-8 validation (with null bytes allowed) is performed.
