EJSON is an extension of JSON to support more types. It supports all JSON-safe types, as well as:
-
Date - JavaScript
Date
-
Binary - JavaScript
Uint8Array
or the result ofEJSON.newBinary
-
User-defined types - see
EJSON.addType
All EJSON serializations are also valid JSON. For example an object with a date and a binary buffer would be serialized in EJSON as:
{
"d": {"$date": 1358205756553},
"b": {"$binary": "c3VyZS4="}
}
