```

Deserializes a given input to a JSON value using the CBOR (Concise Binary Object Representation) serialization format.

1. Reads from a compatible input.
2. Reads from an iterator range.

The exact mapping and its limitations is described on a [dedicated page](../../features/binary_formats/cbor.md).

## Template parameters

`InputType`
:   A compatible input, for instance:
    
    - an `std::istream` object
    - a `FILE` pointer
    - a C-style array of characters
    - a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
    - an object `obj` for which `begin(obj)` and `end(obj)` produces a valid pair of iterators.

`IteratorType`
:   a compatible iterator type

## Parameters

`i` (in)
:   an input in CBOR format convertible to an input adapter

`first` (in)
:   iterator to start of the input

`last` (in)
:   iterator to end of the input

`strict` (in)
:   whether to expect the input to be consumed until EOF (`#!cpp true` by default)

`allow_exceptions` (in)
:   whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)

`tag_handler` (in)
:   how to treat CBOR tags (optional, `error` by default); see [`cbor_tag_handler_t`](cbor_tag_handler_t.md) for more
    information

## Return value

deserialized JSON value; in case of a parse error and `allow_exceptions` set to `#!cpp false`, the return value will be
`value_t::discarded`.  The latter can be checked with [`is_discarded`](is_discarded.md).

## Exception safety

Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.

## Exceptions
 
- Throws [parse_error.110](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error110) if the given input ends prematurely or
  the end of file was not reached when `strict` was set to true
- Throws [parse_error.112](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error112) if unsupported features from CBOR were
  used in the given input or if the input is not valid CBOR
- Throws [parse_error.113](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error113) if a string was expected as map key,
  but not found

## Complexity

Linear in the size of the input.

## Examples

??? example

    The example shows the deserialization of a byte vector in CBOR format to a JSON value.
     
    ```cpp
    --8<-- "examples/from_cbor.cpp"
    ```
    
    Output:
    
    ```json
    --8<-- "examples/from_cbor.output"
    ```

## Version history

- Added in version 2.0.9.
- Parameter `start_index` since version 2.1.1.
- Changed to consume input adapters, removed `start_index` parameter, and added `strict` parameter in version 3.0.0.
- Added `allow_exceptions` parameter in version 3.2.0.
- Added `tag_handler` parameter in version 3.9.0.

!!! warning "Deprecation"

    - Overload (2) replaces calls to `from_cbor` with a pointer and a length as first two parameters, which has been
      deprecated in version 3.8.0. This overload will be removed in version 4.0.0. Please replace all calls like
      `#!cpp from_cbor(ptr, len, ...);` with `#!cpp from_cbor(ptr, ptr+len, ...);`.
    - Overload (2) replaces calls to `from_cbor` with a pair of iterators as their first parameter, which has been
      deprecated in version 3.8.0. This overload will be removed in version 4.0.0. Please replace all calls like
      `#!cpp from_cbor({ptr, ptr+len}, ...);` with `#!cpp from_cbor(ptr, ptr+len, ...);`.

    You should be warned by your compiler with a `-Wdeprecated-declarations` warning if you are using a deprecated
    function.
