NAME

       bson_reader_t - bson_reader_t

       Streaming BSON Document Reader

SYNOPSIS

          #include <bson/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.
