## Detailed Description

An input archive designed to load data from JSON.

This archive uses RapidJSON to read in a JSON archive.

As with the output JSON archive, the preferred way to use this archive is in an RAII fashion, ensuring its destruction after all data has been read.

Input JSON should have been produced by the JSONOutputArchive. Data can only be added to dynamically sized containers (marked by JSON arrays) - the input archive will determine their size by looking at the number of child nodes. Only JSON originating from a JSONOutputArchive is officially supported, but data from other sources may work if properly formatted.

The JSONInputArchive does not require that nodes are loaded in the same order they were saved by JSONOutputArchive. Using name value pairs (NVPs), it is possible to load in an out of order fashion or otherwise skip/select specific nodes to load.

The default behavior of the input archive is to read sequentially starting with the first node and exploring its children. When a given NVP does not match the read in name for a node, the archive will search for that node at the current level and load it if it exists. After loading an out of order node, the archive will then proceed back to loading sequentially from its new position.

Consider this simple example where loading of some data is skipped:

// imagine the input file has someData(1-9) saved in order at the top level node
ar( someData1, someData2, someData3 ); // XML loads in the order it sees in the file
ar( cereal::make_nvp( "hello", someData6 ) ); // NVP given does not
// match expected NVP name, so we search
// for the given NVP and load that value
ar( someData7, someData8, someData9 ); // with no NVP given, loading resumes at its
// current location, proceeding sequentially

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## JSONInputArchive()

cereal::JSONInputArchive::JSONInputArchive | ( | std::istream & | stream | ) |

inline

Construct, reading from the provided stream.

Parameters

  stream | The stream to read from

## Member Function Documentation

## getNodeName()

const char* cereal::JSONInputArchive::getNodeName | ( |  | ) | const

inline

Retrieves the current node name.

Returns
  nullptr if no name exists

## loadBinaryValue()

void cereal::JSONInputArchive::loadBinaryValue | ( | void * | data,
|  | size_t | size,
|  | const char * | name = `nullptr`
| ) |  |

inline

Loads some binary data, encoded as a base64 string.

This will automatically start and finish a node to load the data, and can be called directly by users.

Note that this follows the same ordering rules specified in the class description in regards to loading in/out of order

## startNode()

void cereal::JSONInputArchive::startNode | ( |  | ) |

inline

Starts a new node, going into its proper iterator.

This places an iterator for the next node to be parsed onto the iterator stack. If the next node is an array, this will be a value iterator, otherwise it will be a member iterator.

By default our strategy is to start with the document root node and then recursively iterate through all children in the order they show up in the document. We don't need to know NVPs to do this; we'll just blindly load in the order things appear in.

If we were given an NVP, we will search for it if it does not match our the name of the next node that would normally be loaded. This functionality is provided by search().
