bson – BSON (Binary JSON) Encoding and Decoding

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 [1]	int32 / int64	py -> bson
bson.int64.Int64	int64	both
float	number (real)	both
str	string	both
list	array	both
dict	object	both
SON	object	both
Mapping	object	py -> bson
RawBSONDocument	object	both [2]
datetime.datetime [3] [4]	UTC datetime	both
DatetimeMS	UTC datetime	both [5]
Regex	regex	both
compiled re [7]	regex	py -> bson
Binary	binary	both
uuid.UUID [6]	binary	both
ObjectId	oid	both
DBRef	dbref	both
DBRef	dbpointer	bson -> py
None	undefined	bson -> py
Code	code	both
str	symbol	bson -> py
