Public Member Functions

 MNX_OPTIONAL_PROPERTY_WITH_DEFAULT (std::string, type, std::string(defaultType()))
 determines our type in the JSON
 
template<typename T , std::enable_if_t< std::is_base_of_v< ContentObject, T >, int > = 0>
get () const
 Retrieve an element as a specific type.
 
template<typename T , std::enable_if_t< std::is_base_of_v< ContentObject, T >, int > = 0>
getTypedObject () const
 Constructs an object of type T if its type matches the JSON type.
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from mnx::ArrayElementObject
size_t calcArrayIndex () const
 Calculates the array index of the current instance within the array.
 
template<typename ContainerType >
ContainerType container () const
 Returns the object that owns the content array this element belongs to wrapped as the specified template type.
 
 Object ()
 Constructor fresh document or detached instance.
 
 Object (const std::shared_ptr< json > &root, json_pointer pointer)
 Wraps an Object class around an existing JSON object node.
 
 Object (Base &parent, std::string_view key)
 Creates a new Object class as a child of a JSON node.

 Object ()
 Constructor fresh document or detached instance.
 
 Object (const std::shared_ptr< json > &root, json_pointer pointer)
 Wraps an Object class around an existing JSON object node.
 
 Object (Base &parent, std::string_view key)
 Creates a new Object class as a child of a JSON node.
 
 MNX_OPTIONAL_PROPERTY (std::string, _c)
 An optional comment. This serves a similar function as XML or HTML comments.
 
 MNX_OPTIONAL_CHILD (Object, _x)
 Vendor-defined dictionary.
 
 MNX_OPTIONAL_PROPERTY (std::string, id)
 Uniquely identifies the object.
 
void setExtension (const std::string &key, const json &value)
 Sets a vendor extension value in _x, creating _x when needed.
 
std::optional< jsongetExtension (const std::string &key) const
 Gets a vendor extension value from _x.
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from mnx::Base
 Base (const Base &src)
 Copy constructor.
 
 Base (Base &&src) noexcept
 Move constructor.
 
Baseoperator= (const Base &src)
 Copy assignment operator.
 
Baseoperator= (Base &&src)
 Move assignment operator.
 
std::string dump (int indents=-1) const
 Dumps the branch to a string. Useful in debugging.
 
template<typename T >
parent () const
 Returns the parent object for this node.
 
template<typename T , typename Scope = scope::Default>
std::optional< T > getEnclosingElement () const
 Returns the enclosing array element for this instance. If T is a type that can be nested (e.g. ContentObject), the highest level instance is returned. (To get the lowest level immediate container, use ContentObject::container.)
 
json_pointer pointer () const
 Returns the json_pointer for this node.
 
Document document () const
 Returns the document root.
 
bool empty () const
 Returns true if the object is empty.

 Base (json &&jsonRef, Base &parent, std::string_view key)
 Construct a Base reference as a child inside a parent node.
 
template<typename T >
