NAME
    BSON::String - BSON type wrapper for strings

VERSION
    version v1.12.2

SYNOPSIS
        use BSON::Types ':all';

        bson_string( $string );

DESCRIPTION
    This module provides a BSON type wrapper for a string value.

    Since Perl does not distinguish between numbers and strings, this module provides an explicit
    string type for a scalar value.

ATTRIBUTES
  value
    A scalar value, which will be stringified during construction. The default is the empty string.

METHODS
  TO_JSON
    Returns value as a string.

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