# BSON::Int32(3pm)

BSON type wrapper for Int32

## NAME

BSON::Int32 - BSON type wrapper for Int32

## VERSION

version v1.12.2

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use BSON::Types ':all';
    bson_int32( $number );
```

## DESCRIPTION

This module provides a BSON type wrapper for a numeric value that would be represented in BSON as a 32-bit integer.

If the value won't fit in a 32-bit integer, an error will be thrown.

## ATTRIBUTES

### value

A numeric scalar.  It will be coerced to an integer.  The default is 0.

## METHODS

### TO\_JSON

Returns the value as an integer.

If the `"BSON_EXTJSON"` environment variable is true and the `"BSON_EXTJSON_RELAXED"` environment variable is false, returns a hashref compatible with MongoDB's extended JSON \<https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/extended-json.rst\> format, which represents it as a document as follows:

```
    {"$numberInt" : "42"}
```

## OVERLOADING

The numification operator, `"0+"` is overloaded to return the `"value"`, the full "minimal set" of overloaded operations is provided (per overload documentation) and fallback overloading is enabled.
