"""BSON (Binary JSON) encoding and decoding.
The mapping from Python types to BSON types is as follows:
======================================= ============= ===================
Python Type BSON Type Supported Direction
======================================= ============= ===================
None null both
bool boolean both
int [#int]_ int32 / int64 py -> bson
long int64 py -> bson
`bson.int64.Int64` int64 both
float number (real) both
string string py -> bson
unicode string both
list array both
dict / `SON` object both
datetime.datetime [#dt]_ [#dt2]_ date both
`bson.regex.Regex` regex both
compiled re [#re]_ regex py -> bson
`bson.binary.Binary` binary both
`bson.objectid.ObjectId` oid both
`bson.dbref.DBRef` dbref both
None undefined bson -> py
unicode code bson -> py
`bson.code.Code` code py -> bson
unicode symbol bson -> py
bytes (Python 3) [#bytes]_ binary both
======================================= ============= ===================
Note that, when using Python 2.x, to save binary data it must be wrapped as
an instance of `bson.binary.Binary`. Otherwise it will be saved as a BSON
string and retrieved as unicode. Users of Python 3.x can use the Python bytes
type.
.. [#int] A Python int will be saved as a BSON int32 or BSON int64 depending
on its size. A BSON int32 will always decode to a Python int. A BSON
int64 will always decode to a :class:`~bson.int64.Int64`.
.. [#dt] datetime.datetime instances will be rounded to the nearest
millisecond when saved
.. [#dt2] all datetime.datetime instances are treated as *naive*. clients
should always use UTC.
.. [#re] :class:`~bson.regex.Regex` instances and regular expression
objects from ``re.compile()`` are both saved as BSON regular expressions.
BSON regular expressions are decoded as :class:`~bson.regex.Regex`
instances.
.. [#bytes] The bytes type from Python 3.x is encoded as BSON binary with
subtype 0. In Python 3.x it will be decoded back to bytes. In Python 2.x
it will be decoded to an instance of :class:`~bson.binary.Binary` with
subtype 0.
