Provided by: libbson-doc_1.30.0-1_all bug

SYNOPSIS

          bool
          bson_validate (const bson_t *bson, bson_validate_flags_t flags, size_t *offset);

PARAMETERS

bson: A bson_t.

       • flags: A bitwise-or of all desired bson_validate_flags_t.

       • offset: Optional location where the error offset will be written.

DESCRIPTION

       Validates  a  BSON  document by walking through the document and inspecting the keys and values for valid
       content.

       You  can  modify  how  the  validation  occurs  through   the   use   of   the   flags   parameter,   see
       bson_validate_flags_t for details.

RETURNS

       If  bson  passes  the  requested  validations,  returns  true.  Otherwise, returns false and if offset is
       non-NULL it will be written with the byte offset in the document where an error was detected.

       To get more information about the specific validation failure, use  bson_validate_with_error_and_offset()
       instead.

       SEE ALSO:
          bson_validate_with_error(), bson_validate_with_error_and_offset().

          bson_visitor_t can be used for custom validation, Example Custom Validation.
