+@brief exception indicating a parse error
+
+This excpetion is thrown by the library when a parse error occurs. Parse errors
+can occur during the deserialization of JSON text, CBOR, MessagePack, as well
+as when using JSON Patch.
+
+Member @a byte holds the byte index of the last read character in the input
+file.
+
+@note For an input with n bytes, 1 is the index of the first character and n+1
+ is the index of the terminating null byte or the end of file. This also
+ holds true when reading a byte vector (CBOR or MessagePack).
+
+Exceptions have ids 1xx.
+
+name / id | example message | description
+------------------------------ | --------------- | -------------------------
+json.exception.parse_error.101 | parse error at 2: unexpected end of input; expected string literal | This error indicates a syntax error while deserializing a JSON text. The error message describes that an unexpected token (character) was encountered, and the member @a byte indicates the error position.
+json.exception.parse_error.102 | parse error at 14: missing or wrong low surrogate | JSON uses the `\uxxxx` format to describe Unicode characters. Code points above above 0xFFFF are split into two `\uxxxx` entries ("surrogate pairs"). This error indicates that the surrogate pair is incomplete or contains an invalid code point.
+json.exception.parse_error.103 | parse error: code points above 0x10FFFF are invalid | Unicode supports code points up to 0x10FFFF. Code points above 0x10FFFF are invalid.
+json.exception.parse_error.104 | parse error: JSON patch must be an array of objects | [RFC 6902](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902) requires a JSON Patch document to be a JSON document that represents an array of objects.
+json.exception.parse_error.105 | parse error: operation must have string member 'op' | An operation of a JSON Patch document must contain exactly one "op" member, whose value indicates the operation to perform. Its value must be one of "add", "remove", "replace", "move", "copy", or "test"; other values are errors.
+json.exception.parse_error.106 | parse error: array index '01' must not begin with '0' | An array index in a JSON Pointer ([RFC 6901](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901)) may be `0` or any number wihtout a leading `0`.
+json.exception.parse_error.107 | parse error: JSON pointer must be empty or begin with '/' - was: 'foo' | A JSON Pointer must be a Unicode string containing a sequence of zero or more reference tokens, each prefixed by a `/` character.
+json.exception.parse_error.108 | parse error: escape character '~' must be followed with '0' or '1' | In a JSON Pointer, only `~0` and `~1` are valid escape sequences.
+json.exception.parse_error.109 | parse error: array index 'one' is not a number | A JSON Pointer array index must be a number.
+json.exception.parse_error.110 | parse error at 1: cannot read 2 bytes from vector | When parsing CBOR or MessagePack, the byte vector ends before the complete value has been read.
+json.exception.parse_error.112 | parse error at 1: error reading CBOR; last byte: 0xf8 | Not all types of CBOR or MessagePack are supported. This exception occurs if an unsupported byte was read.
+json.exception.parse_error.113 | parse error at 2: expected a CBOR string; last byte: 0x98 | While parsing a map key, a value that is not a string has been read.

+json.exception.invalid_iterator.202 | iterator does not fit current value | In an erase or insert function, the passed iterator @a pos does not belong to the JSON value for which the function was called. It hence does not define a valid position for the deletion/insertion.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.203 | iterators do not fit current value | Either iterator passed to function @ref erase(IteratorType first, IteratorType last) does not belong to the JSON value from which values shall be erased. It hence does not define a valid range to delete values from.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.204 | iterators out of range | When an iterator range for a primitive type (number, boolean, or string) is passed to a constructor or an erase function, this range has to be exactly (@ref begin(), @ref end()), because this is the only way the single stored value is expressed. All other ranges are invalid.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.205 | iterator out of range | When an iterator for a primitive type (number, boolean, or string) is passed to an erase function, the iterator has to be the @ref begin() iterator, because it is the only way to address the stored value. All other iterators are invalid.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.206 | cannot construct with iterators from null | The iterators passed to constructor @ref basic_json(InputIT first, InputIT last) belong to a JSON null value and hence to not define a valid range.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.207 | cannot use key() for non-object iterators | The key() member function can only be used on iterators belonging to a JSON object, because other types do not have a concept of a key.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.208 | cannot use operator[] for object iterators | The operator[] to specify a concrete offset cannot be used on iterators belonging to a JSON object, because JSON objects are unordered.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.209 | cannot use offsets with object iterators | The offset operators (+, -, +=, -=) cannot be used on iterators belonging to a JSON object, because JSON objects are unordered.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.210 | iterators do not fit | The iterator range passed to the insert function are not compatible, meaning they do not belong to the same container. Therefore, the range (@a first, @a last) is invalid.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.211 | passed iterators may not belong to container | The iterator range passed to the insert function must not be a subrange of the container to insert to.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.212 | cannot compare iterators of different containers | When two iterators are compared, they must belong to the same container.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.213 | cannot compare order of object iterators | The order of object iterators cannot be compared, because JSON objects are unordered.
+json.exception.invalid_iterator.214 | cannot get value | Cannot get value for iterator: Either the iterator belongs to a null value or it is an iterator to a primitive type (number, boolean, or string), but the iterator is different to @ref begin().

+ @brief scan a number literal
+
+ This function scans a string according to Sect. 6 of RFC 7159.
+
+ The function is realized with a deterministic finite state machine derived
+ from the grammar described in RFC 7159. Starting in state "init", the
+ input is read and used to determined the next state. Only state "done"
+ accepts the number. State "error" is a trap state to model errors. In the
+ table below, "anything" means any character but the ones listed before.
+
+ state | 0 | 1-9 | e E | + | - | . | anything
+ ---------|----------|----------|----------|---------|---------|----------|-----------
+ init | zero | any1 | [error] | [error] | minus | [error] | [error]
+ minus | zero | any1 | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error]
+ zero | done | done | exponent | done | done | decimal1 | done
+ any1 | any1 | any1 | exponent | done | done | decimal1 | done
+ decimal1 | decimal2 | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error]
+ decimal2 | decimal2 | decimal2 | exponent | done | done | done | done
+ exponent | any2 | any2 | [error] | sign | sign | [error] | [error]
+ sign | any2 | any2 | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error] | [error]
+ any2 | any2 | any2 | done | done | done | done | done
+
+ The state machine is realized with one label per state (prefixed with
+ "scan_number_") and `goto` statements between them. The state machine
+ contains cycles, but any cycle can be left when EOF is read. Therefore,
+ the function is guaranteed to terminate.
+
+ During scanning, the read bytes are stored in yytext. This string is
+ then converted to a signed integer, an unsigned integer, or a
+ floating-point number.
+
+ @return token_type::value_unsigned, token_type::value_integer, or
+ token_type::value_float if number could be successfully scanned,
+ token_type::parse_error otherwise
+
+ @note The scanner is independent of the current locale. Internally, the
+ locale's decimal point is used instead of `.` to work with the
+ locale-dependent converters.

+
+@requirement The class satisfies the following concept requirements:
+- Basic
+ - [DefaultConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/DefaultConstructible):
+ JSON values can be default constructed. The result will be a JSON null
+ value.
+ - [MoveConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/MoveConstructible):
+ A JSON value can be constructed from an rvalue argument.
+ - [CopyConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/CopyConstructible):
+ A JSON value can be copy-constructed from an lvalue expression.
+ - [MoveAssignable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/MoveAssignable):
+ A JSON value van be assigned from an rvalue argument.
+ - [CopyAssignable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/CopyAssignable):
+ A JSON value can be copy-assigned from an lvalue expression.
+ - [Destructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Destructible):
+ JSON values can be destructed.
+- Layout
+ - [StandardLayoutType](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/StandardLayoutType):
+ JSON values have
+ [standard layout](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/data_members#Standard_layout):
+ All non-static data members are private and standard layout types, the
+ class has no virtual functions or (virtual) base classes.
+- Library-wide
+ - [EqualityComparable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/EqualityComparable):
+ JSON values can be compared with `==`, see @ref
+ operator==(const_reference,const_reference).
+ - [LessThanComparable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/LessThanComparable):
+ JSON values can be compared with `<`, see @ref
+ operator<(const_reference,const_reference).
+ - [Swappable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Swappable):
+ Any JSON lvalue or rvalue of can be swapped with any lvalue or rvalue of
+ other compatible types, using unqualified function call @ref swap().
+ - [NullablePointer](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/NullablePointer):
+ JSON values can be compared against `std::nullptr_t` objects which are used
+ to model the `null` value.
+- Container
+ - [Container](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Container):
+ JSON values can be used like STL containers and provide iterator access.
+ - [ReversibleContainer](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/ReversibleContainer);
+ JSON values can be used like STL containers and provide reverse iterator
+ access.
+
+@invariant The member variables @a m_value and @a m_type have the following
+relationship:
+- If `m_type == value_t::object`, then `m_value.object != nullptr`.
+- If `m_type == value_t::array`, then `m_value.array != nullptr`.
+- If `m_type == value_t::string`, then `m_value.string != nullptr`.
+The invariants are checked by member function assert_invariant().

+ /*!
+ @brief a type for an object
+
+ [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) describes JSON objects as follows:
+ > An object is an unordered collection of zero or more name/value pairs,
+ > where a name is a string and a value is a string, number, boolean, null,
+ > object, or array.
+
+ To store objects in C++, a type is defined by the template parameters
+ described below.
+
+ @tparam ObjectType the container to store objects (e.g., `std::map` or
+ `std::unordered_map`)
+ @tparam StringType the type of the keys or names (e.g., `std::string`).
+ The comparison function `std::less<StringType>` is used to order elements
+ inside the container.
+ @tparam AllocatorType the allocator to use for objects (e.g.,
+ `std::allocator`)
+
+ #### Default type
+
+ With the default values for @a ObjectType (`std::map`), @a StringType
+ (`std::string`), and @a AllocatorType (`std::allocator`), the default
+ value for @a object_t is:
+
+ @code {.cpp}
+ std::map<
+ std::string, // key_type
+ basic_json, // value_type
+ std::less<std::string>, // key_compare
+ std::allocator<std::pair<const std::string, basic_json>> // allocator_type
+ >
+ @endcode
+
+ #### Behavior
+
+ The choice of @a object_t influences the behavior of the JSON class. With
+ the default type, objects have the following behavior:
+
+ - When all names are unique, objects will be interoperable in the sense
+ that all software implementations receiving that object will agree on
+ the name-value mappings.
+ - When the names within an object are not unique, later stored name/value
+ pairs overwrite previously stored name/value pairs, leaving the used
+ names unique. For instance, `{"key": 1}` and `{"key": 2, "key": 1}` will
+ be treated as equal and both stored as `{"key": 1}`.
+ - Internally, name/value pairs are stored in lexicographical order of the
+ names. Objects will also be serialized (see @ref dump) in this order.
+ For instance, `{"b": 1, "a": 2}` and `{"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be stored
+ and serialized as `{"a": 2, "b": 1}`.
+ - When comparing objects, the order of the name/value pairs is irrelevant.
+ This makes objects interoperable in the sense that they will not be
+ affected by these differences. For instance, `{"b": 1, "a": 2}` and
+ `{"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be treated as equal.
+
+ #### Limits
+
+ [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
+ > An implementation may set limits on the maximum depth of nesting.
+
+ In this class, the object's limit of nesting is not explicitly constrained.
+ However, a maximum depth of nesting may be introduced by the compiler or
+ runtime environment. A theoretical limit can be queried by calling the
+ @ref max_size function of a JSON object.
+
+ #### Storage
+
+ Objects are stored as pointers in a @ref basic_json type. That is, for any
+ access to object values, a pointer of type `object_t*` must be
+ dereferenced.
+
+ @sa @ref array_t -- type for an array value
+
+ @since version 1.0.0
+
+ @note The order name/value pairs are added to the object is *not*
+ preserved by the library. Therefore, iterating an object may return
+ name/value pairs in a different order than they were originally stored. In
+ fact, keys will be traversed in alphabetical order as `std::map` with
+ `std::less` is used by default. Please note this behavior conforms to [RFC
+ 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159), because any order implements the
+ specified "unordered" nature of JSON objects.

+ by code unit.

+
+ With a parser callback function, the result of parsing a JSON text can be

+ it is called on certain events (passed as @ref parse_event_t via parameter
+ @a event) with a set recursion depth @a depth and context JSON value
+ @a parsed. The return value of the callback function is a boolean
+ indicating whether the element that emitted the callback shall be kept or
+ not.
+
+ We distinguish six scenarios (determined by the event type) in which the
+ callback function can be called. The following table describes the values
+ of the parameters @a depth, @a event, and @a parsed.
+
+ parameter @a event | description | parameter @a depth | parameter @a parsed

+ parse_event_t::object_end | the parser read `}` and finished processing a JSON object | depth of the parent of the JSON object | the parsed JSON object
+ parse_event_t::array_start | the parser read `[` and started to process a JSON array | depth of the parent of the JSON array | a JSON value with type discarded

+ - Discarded values in structured types are skipped. That is, the parser

+ @brief create a container (array or object) from an initializer list
+
+ Creates a JSON value of type array or object from the passed initializer
+ list @a init. In case @a type_deduction is `true` (default), the type of
+ the JSON value to be created is deducted from the initializer list @a init
+ according to the following rules:
+
+ 1. If the list is empty, an empty JSON object value `{}` is created.
+ 2. If the list consists of pairs whose first element is a string, a JSON
+ object value is created where the first elements of the pairs are
+ treated as keys and the second elements are as values.
+ 3. In all other cases, an array is created.
+
+ The rules aim to create the best fit between a C++ initializer list and
+ JSON values. The rationale is as follows:
+
+ 1. The empty initializer list is written as `{}` which is exactly an empty
+ JSON object.
+ 2. C++ has no way of describing mapped types other than to list a list of
+ pairs. As JSON requires that keys must be of type string, rule 2 is the
+ weakest constraint one can pose on initializer lists to interpret them
+ as an object.
+ 3. In all other cases, the initializer list could not be interpreted as
+ JSON object type, so interpreting it as JSON array type is safe.
+
+ With the rules described above, the following JSON values cannot be
+ expressed by an initializer list:
+
+ - the empty array (`[]`): use @ref array(initializer_list_t)
+ with an empty initializer list in this case
+ - arrays whose elements satisfy rule 2: use @ref
+ array(initializer_list_t) with the same initializer list
+ in this case
+
+ @note When used without parentheses around an empty initializer list, @ref
+ basic_json() is called instead of this function, yielding the JSON null
+ value.

+
+ @param[in] type_deduction internal parameter; when set to `true`, the type
+ of the JSON value is deducted from the initializer list @a init; when set
+ to `false`, the type provided via @a manual_type is forced. This mode is
+ used by the functions @ref array(initializer_list_t) and
+ @ref object(initializer_list_t).
+
+ @param[in] manual_type internal parameter; when @a type_deduction is set
+ to `false`, the created JSON value will use the provided type (only @ref
+ value_t::array and @ref value_t::object are valid); when @a type_deduction
+ is set to `true`, this parameter has no effect

+
+## Design goals
+
+There are myriads of [JSON](http://json.org) libraries out there, and each may even have its reason to exist. Our class had these design goals:
+
+- **Intuitive syntax**. In languages such as Python, JSON feels like a first class data type. We used all the operator magic of modern C++ to achieve the same feeling in your code. Check out the [examples below](#examples) and you'll know what I mean.
+
+- **Trivial integration**. Our whole code consists of a single header file [`json.hpp`](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/develop/src/json.hpp). That's it. No library, no subproject, no dependencies, no complex build system. The class is written in vanilla C++11. All in all, everything should require no adjustment of your compiler flags or project settings.
+
+- **Serious testing**. Our class is heavily [unit-tested](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/master/test/src/unit.cpp) and covers [100%](https://coveralls.io/r/nlohmann/json) of the code, including all exceptional behavior. Furthermore, we checked with [Valgrind](http://valgrind.org) that there are no memory leaks. To maintain high quality, the project is following the [Core Infrastructure Initiative (CII) best practices](https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/projects/289).
+
+Other aspects were not so important to us:
+
+- **Memory efficiency**. Each JSON object has an overhead of one pointer (the maximal size of a union) and one enumeration element (1 byte). The default generalization uses the following C++ data types: `std::string` for strings, `int64_t`, `uint64_t` or `double` for numbers, `std::map` for objects, `std::vector` for arrays, and `bool` for Booleans. However, you can template the generalized class `basic_json` to your needs.
+
+- **Speed**. There are certainly [faster JSON libraries](https://github.com/miloyip/nativejson-benchmark#parsing-time) out there. However, if your goal is to speed up your development by adding JSON support with a single header, then this library is the way to go. If you know how to use a `std::vector` or `std::map`, you are already set.
+
+See the [contribution guidelines](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#please-dont) for more information.
+
+
+## Integration
+
+The single required source, file `json.hpp` is in the `src` directory or [released here](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/releases). All you need to do is add
+
+```cpp
+#include "json.hpp"
+
+// for convenience
+using json = nlohmann::json;
+```
+
+to the files you want to use JSON objects. That's it. Do not forget to set the necessary switches to enable C++11 (e.g., `-std=c++11` for GCC and Clang).
+
+:beer: If you are using OS X and [Homebrew](http://brew.sh), just type `brew tap nlohmann/json` and `brew install nlohmann_json` and you're set. If you want the bleeding edge rather than the latest release, use `brew install nlohmann_json --HEAD`.
+
+If you are using the [Meson Build System](http://mesonbuild.com), then you can wrap this repo as a subproject.
+
+If you are using [Conan](https://www.conan.io/) to manage your dependencies, merely add `jsonformoderncpp/x.y.z@vthiery/stable` to your `conanfile.py`'s requires, where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use. Please file issues [here](https://github.com/vthiery/conan-jsonformoderncpp/issues) if you experience problems with the packages.
+
+If you are using [hunter](https://github.com/ruslo/hunter/) on your project for external dependencies, then you can use the [nlohman_json package](https://github.com/ruslo/hunter/wiki/pkg.nlohmann_json). Please see the hunter project for any issues regarding the packaging.
+
+:warning: [Version 3.0.0](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/wiki/Road-toward-3.0.0) is currently under development. Branch `develop` is used for the ongoing work and is probably **unstable**. Please use the `master` branch for the last stable version 2.1.1.
+
+
+## Examples
+
+Beside the examples below, you may want to check the [documentation](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/) where each function contains a separate code example (e.g., check out [`emplace()`](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_a602f275f0359ab181221384989810604.html#a602f275f0359ab181221384989810604)). All [example files](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/tree/develop/doc/examples) can be compiled and executed on their own (e.g., file [emplace.cpp](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/develop/doc/examples/emplace.cpp)).
+
+### JSON as first-class data type
+
+Here are some examples to give you an idea how to use the class.
+
+Assume you want to create the JSON object
+
+```json
+{
+ "pi": 3.141,
+ "happy": true,
+ "name": "Niels",
+ "nothing": null,
+ "answer": {
+ "everything": 42
+ },
+ "list": [1, 0, 2],
+ "object": {
+ "currency": "USD",
+ "value": 42.99
+ }
+}
+```
+
+With the JSON class, you could write:
+
+```cpp
+// create an empty structure (null)
+json j;
+
+// add a number that is stored as double (note the implicit conversion of j to an object)
+j["pi"] = 3.141;
+
+// add a Boolean that is stored as bool
+j["happy"] = true;
+
+// add a string that is stored as std::string
+j["name"] = "Niels";
+
+// add another null object by passing nullptr
+j["nothing"] = nullptr;
+
+// add an object inside the object
+j["answer"]["everything"] = 42;
+
+// add an array that is stored as std::vector (using an initializer list)
+j["list"] = { 1, 0, 2 };
+
+// add another object (using an initializer list of pairs)
+j["object"] = { {"currency", "USD"}, {"value", 42.99} };
+
+// instead, you could also write (which looks very similar to the JSON above)
+json j2 = {
+ {"pi", 3.141},
+ {"happy", true},
+ {"name", "Niels"},
+ {"nothing", nullptr},
+ {"answer", {
+ {"everything", 42}
+ }},
+ {"list", {1, 0, 2}},
+ {"object", {
+ {"currency", "USD"},
+ {"value", 42.99}
+ }}
+};
+```
+
+Note that in all these cases, you never need to "tell" the compiler which JSON value you want to use. If you want to be explicit or express some edge cases, the functions `json::array` and `json::object` will help:
+
+```cpp
+// a way to express the empty array []
+json empty_array_explicit = json::array();
+
+// ways to express the empty object {}
+json empty_object_implicit = json({});
+json empty_object_explicit = json::object();
+
+// a way to express an _array_ of key/value pairs [["currency", "USD"], ["value", 42.99]]
+json array_not_object = { json::array({"currency", "USD"}), json::array({"value", 42.99}) };
+```
+
+
+### Serialization / Deserialization
+
+#### To/from strings
+
+You can create an object (deserialization) by appending `_json` to a string literal:
+
+```cpp
+// create object from string literal
+json j = "{ \"happy\": true, \"pi\": 3.141 }"_json;
+
+// or even nicer with a raw string literal
+auto j2 = R"(
+ {
+ "happy": true,
+ "pi": 3.141
+ }
+)"_json;
+```
+
+Note that without appending the `_json` suffix, the passed string literal is not parsed, but just used as JSON string value. That is, `json j = "{ \"happy\": true, \"pi\": 3.141 }"` would just store the string `"{ "happy": true, "pi": 3.141 }"` rather than parsing the actual object.
+
+The above example can also be expressed explicitly using `json::parse()`:
+
+```cpp
+// parse explicitly
+auto j3 = json::parse("{ \"happy\": true, \"pi\": 3.141 }");
+```
+
+You can also get a string representation (serialize):
+
+```cpp
+// explicit conversion to string
+std::string s = j.dump(); // {\"happy\":true,\"pi\":3.141}
+
+// serialization with pretty printing
+// pass in the amount of spaces to indent
+std::cout << j.dump(4) << std::endl;
+// {
+// "happy": true,
+// "pi": 3.141
+// }
+```
+
+#### To/from streams (e.g. files, string streams)
+
+You can also use streams to serialize and deserialize:
+
+```cpp
+// deserialize from standard input
+json j;
+std::cin >> j;
+
+// serialize to standard output
+std::cout << j;
+
+// the setw manipulator was overloaded to set the indentation for pretty printing
+std::cout << std::setw(4) << j << std::endl;
+```
+
+These operators work for any subclasses of `std::istream` or `std::ostream`. Here is the same example with files:
+
+```cpp
+// read a JSON file
+std::ifstream i("file.json");
+json j;
+i >> j;
+
+// write prettified JSON to another file
+std::ofstream o("pretty.json");
+o << std::setw(4) << j << std::endl;
+```
+
+Please note that setting the exception bit for `failbit` is inappropriate for this use case. It will result in program termination due to the `noexcept` specifier in use.
+
+#### Read from iterator range
+
+You can also read JSON from an iterator range; that is, from any container accessible by iterators whose content is stored as contiguous byte sequence, for instance a `std::vector<std::uint8_t>`:
+
+```cpp
+std::vector<std::uint8_t> v = {'t', 'r', 'u', 'e'};
+json j = json::parse(v.begin(), v.end());
+```
+
+You may leave the iterators for the range [begin, end):
+
+```cpp
+std::vector<std::uint8_t> v = {'t', 'r', 'u', 'e'};
+json j = json::parse(v);
+```
+
+
+### STL-like access
+
+We designed the JSON class to behave just like an STL container. In fact, it satisfies the [**ReversibleContainer**](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/ReversibleContainer) requirement.
+
+```cpp
+// create an array using push_back
+json j;
+j.push_back("foo");
+j.push_back(1);
+j.push_back(true);
+
+// also use emplace_back
+j.emplace_back(1.78);
+
+// iterate the array
+for (json::iterator it = j.begin(); it != j.end(); ++it) {
+ std::cout << *it << '\n';
+}
+
+// range-based for
+for (auto& element : j) {
+ std::cout << element << '\n';
+}
+
+// getter/setter
+const std::string tmp = j[0];
+j[1] = 42;
+bool foo = j.at(2);
+
+// comparison
+j == "[\"foo\", 1, true]"_json; // true
+
+// other stuff
+j.size(); // 3 entries
+j.empty(); // false
+j.type(); // json::value_t::array
+j.clear(); // the array is empty again
+
+// convenience type checkers
+j.is_null();
+j.is_boolean();
+j.is_number();
+j.is_object();
+j.is_array();
+j.is_string();
+
+// create an object
+json o;
+o["foo"] = 23;
+o["bar"] = false;
+o["baz"] = 3.141;
+
+// also use emplace
+o.emplace("weather", "sunny");
+
+// special iterator member functions for objects
+for (json::iterator it = o.begin(); it != o.end(); ++it) {
+ std::cout << it.key() << " : " << it.value() << "\n";
+}
+
+// find an entry
+if (o.find("foo") != o.end()) {
+ // there is an entry with key "foo"
+}
+
+// or simpler using count()
+int foo_present = o.count("foo"); // 1
+int fob_present = o.count("fob"); // 0
+
+// delete an entry
+o.erase("foo");
+```
+
+
+### Conversion from STL containers
+
+Any sequence container (`std::array`, `std::vector`, `std::deque`, `std::forward_list`, `std::list`) whose values can be used to construct JSON types (e.g., integers, floating point numbers, Booleans, string types, or again STL containers described in this section) can be used to create a JSON array. The same holds for similar associative containers (`std::set`, `std::multiset`, `std::unordered_set`, `std::unordered_multiset`), but in these cases the order of the elements of the array depends how the elements are ordered in the respective STL container.
+
+```cpp
+std::vector<int> c_vector {1, 2, 3, 4};
+json j_vec(c_vector);
+// [1, 2, 3, 4]
+
+std::deque<double> c_deque {1.2, 2.3, 3.4, 5.6};
+json j_deque(c_deque);
+// [1.2, 2.3, 3.4, 5.6]
+
+std::list<bool> c_list {true, true, false, true};
+json j_list(c_list);
+// [true, true, false, true]
+
+std::forward_list<int64_t> c_flist {12345678909876, 23456789098765, 34567890987654, 45678909876543};
+json j_flist(c_flist);
+// [12345678909876, 23456789098765, 34567890987654, 45678909876543]
+
+std::array<unsigned long, 4> c_array {{1, 2, 3, 4}};
+json j_array(c_array);
+// [1, 2, 3, 4]
+
+std::set<std::string> c_set {"one", "two", "three", "four", "one"};
+json j_set(c_set); // only one entry for "one" is used
+// ["four", "one", "three", "two"]
+
+std::unordered_set<std::string> c_uset {"one", "two", "three", "four", "one"};
+json j_uset(c_uset); // only one entry for "one" is used
+// maybe ["two", "three", "four", "one"]
+
+std::multiset<std::string> c_mset {"one", "two", "one", "four"};
+json j_mset(c_mset); // both entries for "one" are used
+// maybe ["one", "two", "one", "four"]
+
+std::unordered_multiset<std::string> c_umset {"one", "two", "one", "four"};
+json j_umset(c_umset); // both entries for "one" are used
+// maybe ["one", "two", "one", "four"]
+```
+
+Likewise, any associative key-value containers (`std::map`, `std::multimap`, `std::unordered_map`, `std::unordered_multimap`) whose keys can construct an `std::string` and whose values can be used to construct JSON types (see examples above) can be used to create a JSON object. Note that in case of multimaps only one key is used in the JSON object and the value depends on the internal order of the STL container.
+
+```cpp
+std::map<std::string, int> c_map { {"one", 1}, {"two", 2}, {"three", 3} };
+json j_map(c_map);
+// {"one": 1, "three": 3, "two": 2 }
+
+std::unordered_map<const char*, double> c_umap { {"one", 1.2}, {"two", 2.3}, {"three", 3.4} };
+json j_umap(c_umap);
+// {"one": 1.2, "two": 2.3, "three": 3.4}
+
+std::multimap<std::string, bool> c_mmap { {"one", true}, {"two", true}, {"three", false}, {"three", true} };
+json j_mmap(c_mmap); // only one entry for key "three" is used
+// maybe {"one": true, "two": true, "three": true}
+
+std::unordered_multimap<std::string, bool> c_ummap { {"one", true}, {"two", true}, {"three", false}, {"three", true} };
+json j_ummap(c_ummap); // only one entry for key "three" is used
+// maybe {"one": true, "two": true, "three": true}
+```
+
+### JSON Pointer and JSON Patch
+
+The library supports **JSON Pointer** ([RFC 6901](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901)) as alternative means to address structured values. On top of this, **JSON Patch** ([RFC 6902](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902)) allows to describe differences between two JSON values - effectively allowing patch and diff operations known from Unix.
+
+```cpp
+// a JSON value
+json j_original = R"({
+ "baz": ["one", "two", "three"],
+ "foo": "bar"
+})"_json;
+
+// access members with a JSON pointer (RFC 6901)
+j_original["/baz/1"_json_pointer];
+// "two"
+
+// a JSON patch (RFC 6902)
+json j_patch = R"([
+ { "op": "replace", "path": "/baz", "value": "boo" },
+ { "op": "add", "path": "/hello", "value": ["world"] },
+ { "op": "remove", "path": "/foo"}
+])"_json;
+
+// apply the patch
+json j_result = j_original.patch(j_patch);
+// {
+// "baz": "boo",
+// "hello": ["world"]
+// }
+
+// calculate a JSON patch from two JSON values
+json::diff(j_result, j_original);
+// [
+// { "op":" replace", "path": "/baz", "value": ["one", "two", "three"] },
+// { "op": "remove","path": "/hello" },
+// { "op": "add", "path": "/foo", "value": "bar" }
+// ]
+```
+
+
+### Implicit conversions
+
+The type of the JSON object is determined automatically by the expression to store. Likewise, the stored value is implicitly converted.
+
+```cpp
+// strings
+std::string s1 = "Hello, world!";
+json js = s1;
+std::string s2 = js;
+
+// Booleans
+bool b1 = true;
+json jb = b1;
+bool b2 = jb;
+
+// numbers
+int i = 42;
+json jn = i;
+double f = jn;
+
+// etc.
+```
+
+You can also explicitly ask for the value:
+
+```cpp
+std::string vs = js.get<std::string>();
+bool vb = jb.get<bool>();
+int vi = jn.get<int>();
+
+// etc.
+```
+
+### Arbitrary types conversions
+
+Every type can be serialized in JSON, not just STL-containers and scalar types. Usually, you would do something along those lines:
+
+```cpp
+namespace ns {
+ // a simple struct to model a person
+ struct person {
+ std::string name;
+ std::string address;
+ int age;
+ };
+}
+
+ns::person p = {"Ned Flanders", "744 Evergreen Terrace", 60};
+
+// convert to JSON: copy each value into the JSON object
+json j;
+j["name"] = p.name;
+j["address"] = p.address;
+j["age"] = p.age;
+
+// ...
+
+// convert from JSON: copy each value from the JSON object
+ns::person p {
+ j["name"].get<std::string>(),
+ j["address"].get<std::string>(),
+ j["age"].get<int>()
+};
+```
+
+It works, but that's quite a lot of boilerplate... Fortunately, there's a better way:
+
+```cpp
+// create a person
+ns::person p {"Ned Flanders", "744 Evergreen Terrace", 60};
+
+// conversion: person -> json
+json j = p;
+
+std::cout << j << std::endl;
+// {"address":"744 Evergreen Terrace","age":60,"name":"Ned Flanders"}
+
+// conversion: json -> person
+ns::person p2 = j;
+
+// that's it
+assert(p == p2);
+```
+
+#### Basic usage
+
+To make this work with one of your types, you only need to provide two functions:
+
+```cpp
+using nlohmann::json;
+
+namespace ns {
+ void to_json(json& j, const person& p) {
+ j = json{{"name", p.name}, {"address", p.address}, {"age", p.age}};
+ }
+
+ void from_json(const json& j, person& p) {
+ p.name = j.at("name").get<std::string>();
+ p.address = j.at("address").get<std::string>();
+ p.age = j.at("age").get<int>();
+ }
+} // namespace ns
+```
+
+That's all! When calling the `json` constructor with your type, your custom `to_json` method will be automatically called.
+Likewise, when calling `get<your_type>()`, the `from_json` method will be called.
+
+Some important things:
+
+* Those methods **MUST** be in your type's namespace (which can be the global namespace), or the library will not be able to locate them (in this example, they are in namespace `ns`, where `person` is defined).
+* When using `get<your_type>()`, `your_type` **MUST** be [DefaultConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/DefaultConstructible). (There is a way to bypass this requirement described later.)
+* In function `from_json`, use function [`at()`](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_a93403e803947b86f4da2d1fb3345cf2c.html#a93403e803947b86f4da2d1fb3345cf2c) to access the object values rather than `operator[]`. In case a key does not exists, `at` throws an exception that you can handle, whereas `operator[]` exhibits undefined behavior.
+* In case your type contains several `operator=` definitions, code like `your_variable = your_json;` [may not compile](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/667). You need to write `your_variable = your_json.get<decltype your_variable>();` instead.
+* You do not need to add serializers or deserializers for STL types like `std::vector`: the library already implements these.
+
+
+#### How do I convert third-party types?
+
+This requires a bit more advanced technique. But first, let's see how this conversion mechanism works:
+
+The library uses **JSON Serializers** to convert types to json.
+The default serializer for `nlohmann::json` is `nlohmann::adl_serializer` (ADL means [Argument-Dependent Lookup](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/adl)).
+
+It is implemented like this (simplified):
+
+```cpp
+template <typename T>
+struct adl_serializer {
+ static void to_json(json& j, const T& value) {
+ // calls the "to_json" method in T's namespace
+ }
+
+ static void from_json(const json& j, T& value) {
+ // same thing, but with the "from_json" method
+ }
+};
+```
+
+This serializer works fine when you have control over the type's namespace. However, what about `boost::optional`, or `std::filesystem::path` (C++17)? Hijacking the `boost` namespace is pretty bad, and it's illegal to add something other than template specializations to `std`...
+
+To solve this, you need to add a specialization of `adl_serializer` to the `nlohmann` namespace, here's an example:
+
+```cpp
+// partial specialization (full specialization works too)
+namespace nlohmann {
+ template <typename T>
+ struct adl_serializer<boost::optional<T>> {
+ static void to_json(json& j, const boost::optional<T>& opt) {
+ if (opt == boost::none) {
+ j = nullptr;
+ } else {
+ j = *opt; // this will call adl_serializer<T>::to_json which will
+ // find the free function to_json in T's namespace!
+ }
+ }
+
+ static void from_json(const json& j, boost::optional<T>& opt) {
+ if (j.is_null()) {
+ opt = boost::none;
+ } else {
+ opt = j.get<T>(); // same as above, but with
+ // adl_serializer<T>::from_json
+ }
+ }
+ };
+}
+```
+
+#### How can I use `get()` for non-default constructible/non-copyable types?
+
+There is a way, if your type is [MoveConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/MoveConstructible). You will need to specialize the `adl_serializer` as well, but with a special `from_json` overload:
+
+```cpp
+struct move_only_type {
+ move_only_type() = delete;
+ move_only_type(int ii): i(ii) {}
+ move_only_type(const move_only_type&) = delete;
+ move_only_type(move_only_type&&) = default;
+
+ int i;
+};
+
+namespace nlohmann {
+ template <>
+ struct adl_serializer<move_only_type> {
+ // note: the return type is no longer 'void', and the method only takes
+ // one argument
+ static move_only_type from_json(const json& j) {
+ return {j.get<int>()};
+ }
+
+ // Here's the catch! You must provide a to_json method! Otherwise you
+ // will not be able to convert move_only_type to json, since you fully
+ // specialized adl_serializer on that type
+ static void to_json(json& j, move_only_type t) {
+ j = t.i;
+ }
+ };
+}
+```
+
+#### Can I write my own serializer? (Advanced use)
+
+Yes. You might want to take a look at [`unit-udt.cpp`](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/develop/test/src/unit-udt.cpp) in the test suite, to see a few examples.
+
+If you write your own serializer, you'll need to do a few things:
+
+* use a different `basic_json` alias than `nlohmann::json` (the last template parameter of `basic_json` is the `JSONSerializer`)
+* use your `basic_json` alias (or a template parameter) in all your `to_json`/`from_json` methods
+* use `nlohmann::to_json` and `nlohmann::from_json` when you need ADL
+
+Here is an example, without simplifications, that only accepts types with a size <= 32, and uses ADL.
+
+```cpp
+// You should use void as a second template argument
+// if you don't need compile-time checks on T
+template<typename T, typename SFINAE = typename std::enable_if<sizeof(T) <= 32>::type>
+struct less_than_32_serializer {
+ template <typename BasicJsonType>
+ static void to_json(BasicJsonType& j, T value) {
+ // we want to use ADL, and call the correct to_json overload
+ using nlohmann::to_json; // this method is called by adl_serializer,
+ // this is where the magic happens
+ to_json(j, value);
+ }
+
+ template <typename BasicJsonType>
+ static void from_json(const BasicJsonType& j, T& value) {
+ // same thing here
+ using nlohmann::from_json;
+ from_json(j, value);
+ }
+};
+```
+
+Be **very** careful when reimplementing your serializer, you can stack overflow if you don't pay attention:
+
+```cpp
+template <typename T, void>
+struct bad_serializer
+{
+ template <typename BasicJsonType>
+ static void to_json(BasicJsonType& j, const T& value) {
+ // this calls BasicJsonType::json_serializer<T>::to_json(j, value);
+ // if BasicJsonType::json_serializer == bad_serializer ... oops!
+ j = value;
+ }
+
+ template <typename BasicJsonType>
+ static void to_json(const BasicJsonType& j, T& value) {
+ // this calls BasicJsonType::json_serializer<T>::from_json(j, value);
+ // if BasicJsonType::json_serializer == bad_serializer ... oops!
+ value = j.template get<T>(); // oops!
+ }
+};
+```
+
+### Binary formats (CBOR and MessagePack)
+
+Though JSON is a ubiquitous data format, it is not a very compact format suitable for data exchange, for instance over a network. Hence, the library supports [CBOR](http://cbor.io) (Concise Binary Object Representation) and [MessagePack](http://msgpack.org) to efficiently encode JSON values to byte vectors and to decode such vectors.
+
+```cpp
+// create a JSON value
+json j = R"({"compact": true, "schema": 0})"_json;
+
+// serialize to CBOR
+std::vector<std::uint8_t> v_cbor = json::to_cbor(j);
+
+// 0xa2, 0x67, 0x63, 0x6f, 0x6d, 0x70, 0x61, 0x63, 0x74, 0xf5, 0x66, 0x73, 0x63, 0x68, 0x65, 0x6d, 0x61, 0x00
+
+// roundtrip
+json j_from_cbor = json::from_cbor(v_cbor);
+
+// serialize to MessagePack
+std::vector<std::uint8_t> v_msgpack = json::to_msgpack(j);
+
+// 0x82, 0xa7, 0x63, 0x6f, 0x6d, 0x70, 0x61, 0x63, 0x74, 0xc3, 0xa6, 0x73, 0x63, 0x68, 0x65, 0x6d, 0x61, 0x00
+
+// roundtrip
+json j_from_msgpack = json::from_msgpack(v_msgpack);
+```
+
+
+## Supported compilers
+
+Though it's 2016 already, the support for C++11 is still a bit sparse. Currently, the following compilers are known to work:
+
+- GCC 4.9 - 7.1 (and possibly later)
+- Clang 3.4 - 5.0 (and possibly later)
+- Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 / Build Tools 14.0.25123.0 (and possibly later)
+- Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 / Build Tools 15.1.548.43366 (and possibly later)
+
+I would be happy to learn about other compilers/versions.
+
+Please note:
+
+- GCC 4.8 does not work because of two bugs ([55817](https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55817) and [57824](https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57824)) in the C++11 support. Note there is a [pull request](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/pull/212) to fix some of the issues.
+- Android defaults to using very old compilers and C++ libraries. To fix this, add the following to your `Application.mk`. This will switch to the LLVM C++ library, the Clang compiler, and enable C++11 and other features disabled by default.
+
+ ```
+ APP_STL := c++_shared
+ NDK_TOOLCHAIN_VERSION := clang3.6
+ APP_CPPFLAGS += -frtti -fexceptions
+ ```
+
+ The code compiles successfully with [Android NDK](https://developer.android.com/ndk/index.html?hl=ml), Revision 9 - 11 (and possibly later) and [CrystaX's Android NDK](https://www.crystax.net/en/android/ndk) version 10.
+
+- For GCC running on MinGW or Android SDK, the error `'to_string' is not a member of 'std'` (or similarly, for `strtod`) may occur. Note this is not an issue with the code, but rather with the compiler itself. On Android, see above to build with a newer environment. For MinGW, please refer to [this site](http://tehsausage.com/mingw-to-string) and [this discussion](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/136) for information on how to fix this bug. For Android NDK using `APP_STL := gnustl_static`, please refer to [this discussion](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/219).
+
+The following compilers are currently used in continuous integration at [Travis](https://travis-ci.org/nlohmann/json) and [AppVeyor](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/nlohmann/json):

+## Projects using JSON for Modern C++
+
+The library is currently used in Apple macOS Sierra and iOS 10. I am not sure what they are using the library for, but I am happy that it runs on so many devices.
+
+
+## Notes
+
+- The code contains numerous debug **assertions** which can be switched off by defining the preprocessor macro `NDEBUG`, see the [documentation of `assert`](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/error/assert). In particular, note [`operator[]`](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_a2e26bd0b0168abb61f67ad5bcd5b9fa1.html#a2e26bd0b0168abb61f67ad5bcd5b9fa1) implements **unchecked access** for const objects: If the given key is not present, the behavior is undefined (think of a dereferenced null pointer) and yields an [assertion failure](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/289) if assertions are switched on. If you are not sure whether an element in an object exists, use checked access with the [`at()` function](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_a674de1ee73e6bf4843fc5dc1351fb726.html#a674de1ee73e6bf4843fc5dc1351fb726).
+- As the exact type of a number is not defined in the [JSON specification](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159), this library tries to choose the best fitting C++ number type automatically. As a result, the type `double` may be used to store numbers which may yield [**floating-point exceptions**](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/181) in certain rare situations if floating-point exceptions have been unmasked in the calling code. These exceptions are not caused by the library and need to be fixed in the calling code, such as by re-masking the exceptions prior to calling library functions.
+- The library supports **Unicode input** as follows:
+ - Only **UTF-8** encoded input is supported which is the default encoding for JSON according to [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159#rfc.section.8.1).
+ - Other encodings such as Latin-1, UTF-16, or UTF-32 are not supported and will yield parse errors.
+ - [Unicode noncharacters](http://www.unicode.org/faq/private_use.html#nonchar1) will not be replaced by the library.
+ - Invalid surrogates (e.g., incomplete pairs such as `\uDEAD`) will yield parse errors.
+ - The strings stored in the library are UTF-8 encoded. When using the default string type (`std::string`), note that its length/size functions return the number of stored bytes rather than the number of characters or glyphs.
+- The code can be compiled without C++ **runtime type identification** features; that is, you can use the `-fno-rtti` compiler flag.
+- **Exceptions** are used widely within the library. They can, however, be switched off with either using the compiler flag `-fno-exceptions` or by defining the symbol `JSON_NOEXCEPTION`. In this case, exceptions are replaced by an `abort()` call.
+- By default, the library does not preserve the **insertion order of object elements**. This is standards-compliant, as the [JSON standard](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159.html) defines objects as "an unordered collection of zero or more name/value pairs". If you do want to preserve the insertion order, you can specialize the object type with containers like [`tsl::ordered_map`](https://github.com/Tessil/ordered-map) or [`nlohmann::fifo_map`](https://github.com/nlohmann/fifo_map).
