Implements BSON specification.
Use zef to install the package like so.
$ zef install BSON
When installing MongoDB, BSON will be installed automatically as a dependency.
This module is tested using the latest perl6 version on MoarVM
A BSON::Document class has been developed. This structure will keep the order and because of that there is no need for cumbersome operations. At the moment it is much slower than the hashed variant even with the encoding happening in the background and parallel.
use BSON::Document;
my BSON::Javascript $js .= new(:javascript('function(x){return x;}'));
my BSON::Javascript $js-scope .= new(
:javascript('function(x){return x;}'),
:scope(BSON::Document.new: (nn => 10, a1 => 2))
);
my BSON::Binary $bin .= new(:data(Buf,new(... some binary data ...));
my BSON::Regex $rex .= new( :regex('abc|def'), :options<is>);
my BSON::Document $d .= new: ( 'a number' => 10, 'some text' => 'bla die bla');
$d<oid> = BSON::ObjectId.new;
$d<javascript> = $js;
$d<js-scope> = $js-scope;
$d<datetime> = DateTime.now;
$d<bin> = $bin;
$d<rex> = $rex;
$d<null> = Any;
$d<array> = [ 10, 'abc', 345];
$d<subdoc1> = a1 => 10, bb => 11;
$d<subdoc1><b1> = q => 255;
my Buf $enc-doc = $d.encode;
my BSON::Document $new-doc .= new;
$new-doc.decode($enc-doc);
