# <small>nlohmann::basic_json::</small>find
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
template<typename KeyT>
|
|
iterator find(const KeyT& key);
|
|
|
|
template<typename KeyT>
|
|
const_iterator find(const KeyT& key) const;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Finds an element in a JSON object with key equivalent to `key`. If the element is not found or the JSON value is not an
|
|
object, `end()` is returned.
|
|
|
|
## Template parameters
|
|
|
|
`KeyT`
|
|
: A type for an object key that is less-than comparable with `string_t`. This can also be a string literal or a string
|
|
view (C++17).
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
`key` (in)
|
|
: key value of the element to search for.
|
|
|
|
## Return value
|
|
|
|
Iterator to an element with key equivalent to `key`. If no such element is found or the JSON value is not an object,
|
|
past-the-end (see `end()`) iterator is returned.
|
|
|
|
## Exception safety
|
|
|
|
Strong exception safety: if an exception occurs, the original value stays intact.
|
|
|
|
## Complexity
|
|
|
|
Logarithmic in the size of the JSON object.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
This method always returns `end()` when executed on a JSON type that is not an object.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
??? example
|
|
|
|
The example shows how `find()` is used.
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
--8<-- "examples/find__key_type.cpp"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Output:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
--8<-- "examples/find__key_type.output"
|
|
```

## Version history
|
|
|
|
- Added in version 1.0.0.

- Extended template `KeyT` in version 3.10.5 to also support `std::string_view`.
