docs: new design for the documentation site (#5934)
* docs: new design for the documentation site Apply the brand to the Material for MkDocs site: Inter and JetBrains Mono served by the site (upright and real italic), brand colours, blue header band with the syntax pattern, wordmark in the header, new home page (hero, cards, animated feature tour), 404 page, polish for tabs, search, footer, focus rings, tables and code blocks, and theme features (code copy, previous/next footer, TOC follow, search suggestions). Draw the number railroad diagram, the parser callback events and the iterator illustrations as inline SVGs that follow the light and dark scheme. The generator scripts are in docs/mkdocs/scripts/figures; the feature slideshow (json-light.svg, json-dark.svg, replacing json.gif on the home page) is built by docs/mkdocs/scripts/slideshow. Decision nodes in five flowcharts become hexagons, which need far less room. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * docs: add figures, table captions and a macro chooser - Figures with numbered captions: SAX stepper, json_view layout and edit stepper, exception map, JSON pointer and patch walkers, QA pipeline, scaling and binary size charts, roadmap lanes, release timeline, integration decision tree and namespace builder - Table captions (nj-table-caption) on 9 pages - Compile times: modules and PCH charts, filesystem section, re-measured Figure 1, links between features/modules.md and compile_times.md - Interactive macro chooser for features/arbitrary_types.md - Link check: exclude URLs that answer the plugin with 400/401/419 or are dead (customers.md) Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * docs: macro chooser generates adl_serializer for non-default-constructible types Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * docs: cross-link concept pages and API pages in See also sections Add See also links in both directions between the concept pages (features, home, integration) and the API pages, write API links in code font, give every entry a comment after a dash, and show the callback event figure on the parser callbacks page.

Document clang-tidy exclusions, drop unneeded ones, and clean up doc examples (#5909)
* Document clang-tidy exclusions and drop unneeded ones Re-enable every excluded check in a run of clang-tidy 22 over all tests and remove the seven that never fire (cert-err58-cpp, clang-analyzer-webkit.NoUncountedMemberChecker, cppcoreguidelines-virtual-class-destructor, google-readability-function-size, hicpp-function-size, hicpp-no-assembler, readability-function-size). Document the reason for every remaining exclusion at the top of the file. Exclude in advance the checks that only exist in clang-tidy 23 and are noise here (bugprone-signed-bitwise, *-explicit-constructor, readability-trailing-comma, modernize-use-string-view), plus modernize-use-integer-sign-comparison, which needs C++20 std::cmp_less and flags deliberate casts. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix clang-tidy findings in documentation examples and replace redundant aliases Apply clang-tidy fixes to the documentation examples: - performance-avoid-endl: std::endl -> '\n' - readability-qualified-auto: auto -> auto* / const auto* - performance-for-range-copy: copy -> const reference - google-readability-casting: C-style cast -> static_cast Replace redundant aliases (readability-redundant-qualified-alias) such as "using json = nlohmann::json;" with "using nlohmann::json;" in the documentation, README, examples, tests, and benchmarks. Aliases at class scope and aliases of other types (with_base_class_t etc.) are kept. No changes to the library or its public API. All changed examples were compiled and run; their output matches the stored .output files (except max_size and meta, which depend on the platform and compiler).

Review and extend the documentation, and check it in CI (#5638)
* Review and extend the documentation, and check it in CI A review of all documentation pages found factual errors, dead links, missing cross-references, and gaps in examples. This fixes them and adds checks so the same problems are caught automatically. Fixes: - wrong signatures and version histories (operator!= C++20 member, binary() subtype type, get<PointerType>(), JSON_NO_THREAD_LOCAL, ...) - stale descriptions (number parsing since #5283, UBJSON table, SAX example that no longer compiled, tsl::ordered_map advice) - dead internal and external links; repology.org badges (the domain is suspended) replaced by badges that query the registries directly - deprecation notes link the migration guide; the guide itself fixed Additions: - "See also" sections, cross-references, 25 runnable examples, 12 Mermaid diagrams, new API pages for json_pointer::operator<=> and byte_container_with_subtype::operator==/!= - landing page, guides for untrusted input and performance - "unreleased" badge after versions newer than the latest release Checks: - strict documentation build (broken links/anchors fail it); CI and the publish workflow fetch the full history the build needs - weekly external link check, Mermaid syntax check in CI - check_structure.py: example titles, heading levels, alt texts, header links, docset index coverage; its unused-example check works again - all examples produce the same output on every platform Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Keep the customer links that could not be fixed A dead link on the customers page is still the evidence of where the use of the library was documented. Keep the original URLs of the entries without a working replacement (Marne, Cisco Webex Desk Camera, Philips Hue, CyberArk) and exclude exactly these URLs from the link check. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Correct the duplicate-key recipe's claim about SAX positions The SAX interface's key() receives no position either; only parse_error() does. Also note that the recipe does not report the path to the repeated key (see discussion #5085). Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Say the library is available as a single header and mention json_fwd.hpp Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Correct documentation errors found while hunting for bugs - patch/patch_inplace: list the JSON pointer errors parse_error.106-109 and out_of_range.402/404, and quote the actual parse_error.105 message. - unflatten: list parse_error.106/107/108 and out_of_range.404. - to_bson: list out_of_range.415 (binary subtype above 255) and note that 412 and 415 are new in 3.13.0. - to_string: state that string_t must be convertible to std::string, also in the StringType requirements table. - JSON Lines: a `while (input >> j)` loop also throws after the last value for concatenated JSON values; show a loop that works for both. - BON8: a string gets 0xFF only if nothing follows it in the message; a string at the end of an array or object is ended by 0xFE. - custom_string_type.hpp: add operator+=(char), which the "Always required" list asks for (json_pointer::to_string, flatten, unflatten, and diff did not compile), and an ADL int_to_string for diff and items. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Cache the release headers with functools.lru_cache Codacy (Pylint) flagged the mutable default argument that header() used as its cache. functools.lru_cache keeps the same memoization without it. The script's output is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> --------- Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> |

Trim the compiler-appended NUL from wide/UTF string literals too (#5702)
With JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING defined to 1, parsing a wide, UTF-16, UTF-32, or (C++20) UTF-8 string literal (e.g. json::parse(L"[1]")) failed with parse_error.101 at the terminating NUL of the literal, and accept() returned false. The array overload of input_adapter() only dropped the compiler-added trailing '\0' for arrays of char, so for wchar_t, char16_t, char32_t, and char8_t arrays that terminator was passed to the parser as data, which the macro then rejected. Broaden the trimming to every character type that a string literal can use (char, wchar_t, char16_t, char32_t, and, since C++20, char8_t). Arrays of any other element type (unsigned char, std::uint8_t, ...), as used for CBOR/MessagePack, are unaffected: a trailing zero byte there is still read as genuine data. Fixes #5658.

Add BON8 support (#2998)
* Add BON8 support Add to_bon8/from_bon8 and input_format_t::bon8 for BON8, a binary format that uses the byte values that cannot begin a UTF-8 character as type markers, so strings need no length prefix. It is the most compact of the supported binary formats on the benchmark files. The reader is non-recursive like the other binary readers. A string ends at the first byte that cannot continue it, so the reader hands the one or two bytes it reads past a string back to the value that follows. The writer produces the canonical representation of the specification, except for NFC normalization; its output is identical to that of the reference implementation (HikoGUI) on all files of the test data. The round-trip tests need the .bon8 files of json_test_data 3.2.0. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Address review comments - Reuse detail::validate_one_utf8 to check strings in to_bon8; the error now names the first byte of the invalid sequence. - Document that to_bon8 leaves bytes in the output adapter on an exception, and that string_open is only an output of write_bon8_marker. - Explain why the pushback buffer of the BON8 reader cannot overflow. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Select the BON8 float prefix by type get_bon8_float_prefix only depends on the type of its argument, so make the type a template parameter instead of passing an unused value. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Rename a test variable that Flawfinder mistakes for read() Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix the BON8 CI failures - compare the float in write_bon8_float with number_float_t constants, so GCC does not warn about a float-to-double conversion - mark check_bon8_utf8's context as used when exceptions are disabled - choose the compact float prefix in a helper rather than with nested conditional operators (clang-tidy) - use auto for the cast in the BON8 integer reader (clang-tidy) - write the int32 minimum test values as long long literals (MSVC C4146) Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Amalgamate Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Read BON8 strings in bulk from contiguous input - copy the valid UTF-8 of a string in one step when the input is contiguous (twitter.json is read in 1.68 instead of 2.52 ms, jeopardy.json in 196 instead of 297 ms, close to CBOR and MessagePack) - share the new valid_utf8_prefix() with the writer's UTF-8 check, which now skips ASCII 8 bytes at a time - let the fuzzer check that contiguous and stream input give the same value or error, and test both paths in the unit tests - clarify that a second 0xFF after a string is an empty string Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Link the BON8 functions from the other binary format pages Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Name the bulk scan flag after the input, not BON8 Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Read BSON keys in bulk from contiguous input BSON keys (and array indices) are C-style strings, which were read byte by byte. For contiguous input they are now read up to their \x00-byte in one step, using the same bulk_scan flag as BON8 strings: twitter.json is read in 1.46 instead of 2.01 ms, citm_catalog.json in 2.93 instead of 3.33 ms, jeopardy.json in 182 instead of 207 ms. canada.json, whose keys are almost all one-digit array indices, takes 2 % longer. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix the BON8 CI failures of the bulk-read tests - skip the contiguous-versus-stream tests of BON8 strings and BSON keys when exceptions are disabled: they catch the parse errors of invalid input, and without exceptions the library aborts instead - use static_cast for the int64 test value (google-readability-casting) Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Move the explicit basic_json instantiation into its own test file Linking test-regression3_cpp20 with clang and MinGW failed with "relocation truncated to fit: IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32 against `.rdata'", as test-regression2 did before #5511. The explicit instantiation of basic_json<> for #4825 compiles every member function, including the BON8 reader and writer, into that object, and it was already close to the limit (2,226,104 bytes on develop, 2,234,960 with BON8; clang -O1, C++20). Give the instantiation a file of its own: unit-regression3 is now 1,594,736 bytes and unit-explicit_instantiation 1,095,064. The new file mentions JSON_HAS_CPP_17 and JSON_HAS_CPP_20 so it keeps being built for the C++17 standard the regression was about. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Convert the bytes of the BON8 test strings explicitly The str() helper constructed a std::string from a byte range, which converts each unsigned char implicitly; -fsanitize=integer reports that for bytes of 0x80 and above (ci_test_clang_sanitizer).

Make JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING part of the ABI tag (#5560)
* Make JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING part of the ABI tag JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING (#5534) changes the bodies of inline functions: the lexer's handling of '\0' and input_adapter() for char arrays. So translation units compiled with and without it define the same functions differently, an ODR violation - the case the ABI tag exists for, as with JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS (_bics). It now appends _snul to the inline namespace. The macro is new in 3.13.0, so no existing namespace changes. Its default moves to abi_macros.hpp, and it is only #undef'd without JSON_TEST_KEEP_MACROS, as for the other ABI macros. The ABI config tests, the namespace docs, the macro's docs and the Natvis file cover the new tag.

Document that a NUL byte in the input is treated as end of input (#5534)
* docs: document that a NUL byte in the input is treated as end of input A NUL byte anywhere in the input - trailing, or embedded ahead of more otherwise well-formed JSON - is currently treated the same as genuine end of input, so parsing silently stops there instead of raising the parse_error.101 any other unexpected byte triggers. This mirrors the NUL-terminated-C-string convention already used when no explicit input length is given (json::parse(const char*) already stops at strlen()), just applied uniformly rather than only when a length is genuinely unavailable. This behavior predates this change and is not being altered here - changing it would be an observable, backwards-incompatible behavior change for any caller that (knowingly or not) depends on it, which is not something to do silently in a patch. Documenting the current, verified behavior as a new FAQ entry instead, so it's an intentional and discoverable part of the contract rather than a surprise. Fixes #5530. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <niels.lohmann@gmail.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01N4RQ1Ahan5YAGbnAQGjZTY * Add JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING opt-in macro for issue #5530 A NUL byte anywhere in the input is currently treated the same as real end of input, rather than raising parse_error.101 like any other unexpected byte (documented in the previous commit's FAQ entry). A full unconditional fix was tried in PR #5532 but rejected as too risky to ship by default: any caller could depend on the current behavior, even unknowingly (e.g. a zero-padded buffer). On PR #5534, gregmarr proposed a compile-time opt-in flag instead, and the maintainer agreed, wanting it available now and defaulting to the corrected behavior in 4.0.0. This mirrors the existing JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS precedent as closely as sensible: - JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING defaults to 0 (off); the three lexer sites that treat '\0' as EOF/comment-terminator are gated with `#if !JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING` so the default-off behavior is byte-for-byte identical to today's. - input_adapters.hpp's `T (&array)[N]` overload additionally trims a single trailing '\0' from a `char` array (e.g. a string literal like `json::parse("123")`) when the macro is on, so that case keeps working; every other element type (unsigned char, std::uint8_t, ...) always keeps its full extent. This intentionally does *not* reuse the existing strlen()-based pointer overload via SFINAE-excluding `char` from the array overload, as originally sketched for this change: that approach is ambiguous against the newer generic container overload added since PR #5532, and even where it compiles, strlen()-scanning a `char` array that is not NUL-terminated within its bounds reads past the end of the array (confirmed with AddressSanitizer). Trimming only a single trailing byte, without scanning, avoids both problems. - Documented via docs/mkdocs/docs/api/macros/json_strict_nul_handling.md, linked from the macros index/nav/features page, the FAQ entry, and the parse/accept/operator>> reference pages. - Tested in unit-class_parser.cpp and unit-deserialization.cpp, default state unguarded and opt-in state guarded. Since the library itself #undefs the macro at the end of json.hpp (as JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS already does), a plain `#if defined(JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING)` guard after the include never actually triggers; the tests instead capture the command-line value into a test-local macro before including the header. A few pre-existing fixtures elsewhere (std::array<uint8_t, N> sized one larger than their literal, relying on value-initialization to silently add a trailing zero byte) needed the same one-byte adjustment to keep passing under the opt-in behavior. Unlike the precedent, this adds a proper `JSON_StrictNulHandling` CMake option (rather than a raw -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS injection) and wires its ci_test_strict_nul_handling target into the ci_cmake_options job matrix in .github/workflows/ubuntu.yml, so the opt-in build is actually exercised in CI -- closing the one gap in the precedent's own CI setup (ci_test_brace_init_copy_semantics is defined but never referenced by any workflow, so it has never actually run).
