Detailed Description

This class represents a node in a JSON DOM tree.

While each instance is a single node, there are many methods for traversing the node as a tree. A node only has a child if it is an array or an object type. All other types are leaves in the tree.

Children may be accessed by index or key regardless of whether or not the node is an array or object. However, keys are only guaranteed to be unique if the node is an object type. Hence the main usage of this feature is to "cast" object nodes to arrays.

This class uses cJSON as the underlying parsing engine. However, it manages memory automatically so that the user does not need to worry about deleting or allocating memory beyond the initial node itself.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum cugl::JsonValue::Type : int

strong

This enum represents the possible data types in a JsonValue

We do not distinguish numeric types (int, float, long, double) since the JSON specification does not distinguish between them. Instead, we freely convert between these values on access.

Enumerator
NullType	The JsonValue contains no value at all
BoolType	The JsonValue contains a boolean value
NumberType	The JsonValue contains a numeric (int, float, etc.) value
StringType	The JsonValue contains a string value
ArrayType	The JsonValue is an array whose contents are children of the node
ObjectType	The JsonValue is an object whose contents are children of the node

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

cugl::JsonValue::JsonValue ( )

Creates a null JsonValue.

NEVER USE A CONSTRUCTOR WITH NEW. If you want to allocate an object on the heap, use one of the static constructors instead.

cugl::JsonValue::~JsonValue ( )

Deletes this JsonValue and all of its resources.

If no other references own the descendants of this node, they will all be recursively deleted as well.

This method will fail if this node is not an object type (e.g. it will even fail if the node is an array). It will also fail if the key to the child is not unique.

Parameters

index	The position to insert the child
key	The key to identify the child
value	The string value for the child

void cugl::JsonValue::insertValue	(	unsigned int	index,
		const char *	key,
		const std::string &	value
	)

inline

Allocates a new child with a string value and inserts it in place.

The child will be added to the given position in the array, and all other children will be shifted to the right. It will also use the provided key to identify it.

This method will fail if this node is not an object type (e.g. it will even fail if the node is an array). It will also fail if the key to the child is not unique.

Parameters

index	The position to insert the child
key	The key to identify the child
value	The string value for the child

void cugl::JsonValue::insertValue	(	unsigned int	index,
		const char *	key,
		const char *	value
	)

inline

This method will fail if this node is not an object type (e.g. it will even fail if the node is an array). It will also fail if the key to the child is not unique.

Parameters

index	The position to insert the child
key	The key to identify the child
value	The string value for the child

bool cugl::JsonValue::isArray ( ) const

inline

inline

Returns true if this node is a boolean value.

Returns: true if this node is a boolean value.

bool cugl::JsonValue::isNull ( ) const

inline

Returns true if this node has NULL type (e.g. it has no value)

Returns: true if this node has NULL type (e.g. it has no value)

bool cugl::JsonValue::isNumber ( ) const

inline

Returns true if this node is a double or long value.

Returns: true if this node is a double or long value.

bool cugl::JsonValue::isObject ( ) const

inline

Returns true if this node is an object.

If this method returns true, it is safe to access the children by either index or key.

Returns: true if this node is an array.

bool cugl::JsonValue::isString ( ) const

inline

Returns true if this node is a string value.

Returns: true if this node is a string value.

bool cugl::JsonValue::isValue ( ) const

Returns true if this node is not NULL nor an array or object.

Returns: true if this node is not NULL nor an array or object.

const std::string& cugl::JsonValue::key ( ) const

Returns the key for this object value.

This method fails if there is no parent or the parent type is not ObjectType.

Returns: the key for this object value.

std::shared_ptr<JsonValue> cugl::JsonValue::removeChild ( int index )

Returns the child with the specified index and removes it from this node.

All other children will be shifted to the right. Returning the node allows the user to acquire ownership before it is deleted.

If the index is out of bounds, this method returns nullptr.

Parameters

index The index of the child to remove

Returns the child with the specified index and removes it from this node.

std::shared_ptr<JsonValue> cugl::JsonValue::removeChild ( const std::string & name )

Returns the child with the specified key and removes it from this node.

Returning the node allows the user to acquire ownership before it is deleted.

If there is no child with this key, this method returns nullptr.

Parameters

name	The key of the child to remove

Returns the child with the specified key and removes it from this node.

std::shared_ptr<JsonValue> cugl::JsonValue::removeChild ( const char * name )

inline

Returns the child with the specified key and removes it from this node.

Returning the node allows the user to acquire ownership before it is deleted.

If there is no child with this key, this method returns nullptr.

Parameters

name	The key of the child to remove

Returns the child with the specified key and removes it from this node.

void cugl::JsonValue::set ( const std::string & value )

Sets the value of this node to the given string.

This method will fail if the node is not a value type or NULL. Using this method will set the type of the node to StringType.

Parameters

value The string value to assign

void cugl::JsonValue::set ( const char * value )

inline

Sets the value of this node to the given string.

This method will fail if the node is not a value type or NULL. Using this method will set the type of the node to StringType.

Parameters

value The string value to assign (may not be null)

void cugl::JsonValue::set ( long value )

Sets the value of this node to the given number.

This method will fail if the node is not a value type or NULL. Using this method will set the type of the node to NumberType.

Parameters

value The numeric value to assign

void cugl::JsonValue::set ( double value )

Sets the value of this node to the given number.

This method will fail if the node is not a value type or NULL. Using this method will set the type of the node to NumberType.

Parameters

value The numeric value to assign

void cugl::JsonValue::set ( bool value )

Sets the value of this node to the given boolean.

This method will fail if the node is not a value type or NULL. Using this method will set the type of the node to BoolType.

Parameters

value The boolean value to assign

void cugl::JsonValue::setKey ( const std::string & key )

Sets this key for this object value.

This method fails if there is no parent or the parent type is not ObjectType. It also fails if this choice of key is not unique.

Parameters

key	the key for this object value.

void cugl::JsonValue::setKey ( const char * key )

inline

Sets this key for this object value.

This method fails if there is no parent or the parent type is not ObjectType. It also fails if this choice of key is not unique.

Parameters

key	the key for this object value.

void cugl::JsonValue::setNull ( )

Sets this node to NULL, erasing all values.

This method will fail if the node is not a value type or NULL. Using this method will set the type of the node to NullType.

size_t cugl::JsonValue::size ( ) const

inline

Returns the number of children of this node

Returns: the number of children of this node

std::string cugl::JsonValue::toString ( bool format = true ) const

Returns a string representation of this JSON.

This method returns a proper string representation that can be written to the file. Providing this string to the allocJson constructor is guaranteed to make a duplicate of this JSON tree.

The JSON may either be pretty-printed or condensed depending on the value of format. By default, we pretty-print all JSON strings.

Parameters

format Whether to pretty-print the JSON string

Returns: a string representation of this JSON.

Type cugl::JsonValue::type ( ) const

inline

Returns the type of this node

Returns: the type of this node
