Data Settings API Reference (obs_data_t)
========================================
Data settings objects are reference-counted objects that store values in
a string-table or array. They're similar to Json objects, but
additionally allow additional functionality such as default or
auto-selection values. Data is saved/loaded to/from Json text and Json
text files.
.. type:: obs_data_t
A reference-counted data object.
.. type:: obs_data_array_t
A reference-counted data array object.
.. code:: cpp
#include <obs.h>
General Functions
-----------------
.. function:: obs_data_t *obs_data_create()
:return: A new reference to a data object.
---------------------
.. function:: obs_data_t *obs_data_create_from_json(const char *json_string)
Creates a data object from a Json string.
:param json_string: Json string
:return: A new reference to a data object
---------------------
.. function:: obs_data_t *obs_data_create_from_json_file(const char *json_file)
Creates a data object from a Json file.

---------------------
.. function:: obs_data_t *obs_data_create_from_json_file_safe(const char *json_file, const char *backup_ext)
Creates a data object from a Json file, with a backup file in case
the original is corrupted or fails to load.
:param json_file: Json file path
:param backup_ext: Backup file extension
:return: A new reference to a data object
---------------------

---------------------
.. function:: bool obs_data_save_json(obs_data_t *data, const char *file)
Saves the data to a file as Json text.

---------------------
.. function:: bool obs_data_save_json_safe(obs_data_t *data, const char *file, const char *temp_ext, const char *backup_ext)
Saves the data to a file as Json text, and if overwriting an old
file, backs up that old file to help prevent potential file
corruption.
:param file: The file to save to
:param backup_ext: The backup extension to use for the overwritten
file if it exists

Erases the user data for item *name* within the data object.
---------------------
.. function:: void obs_data_clear(obs_data_t *data)
Clears all user data in the data object.
