NAME

       BSON::Int64 - BSON type wrapper for Int64

VERSION

       version v1.12.2

SYNOPSIS

           use BSON::Types ':all';

           bson_int64( $number );

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a BSON type wrapper for a numeric value that would be represented in
       BSON as a 64-bit integer.

       If the value won't fit in a 64-bit integer, an error will be thrown.

       On a Perl without 64-bit integer support, the value must be a Math::BigInt object.

ATTRIBUTES

   value
       A numeric scalar.  It will be coerced to an integer.  The default is 0.

METHODS

   TO_JSON
       On a 64-bit perl, returns the value as an integer.  On a 32-bit Perl, it will be returned
       as a Math::BigInt object, which will fail to serialize unless a "TO_JSON" method is
       defined for that or in package "universal".

       If the "BSON_EXTJSON" environment variable is true and the "BSON_EXTJSON_RELAXED"
       environment variable is false, 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:

           {"$numberLong" : "223372036854775807"}

OVERLOADING

       The numification operator, "0+" is overloaded to return the "value", the full "minimal
       set" of overloaded operations is provided (per overload documentation) and fallback
       overloading is enabled.
