💅 BSON_READER_NEW_FROM_DATA 💅

okay bestie, welcome to bson_reader_new_from_data — it's a libbson joint, section 3 of the manual, and honestly? she's iconic and she's simple. let's get into it 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bson_reader_t *
bson_reader_new_from_data (const uint8_t *data, size_t length);

like, that's the whole vibe. two args in, one reader out. slay 💅

🌸 PARAMETERS 🌸

  • data — a uint8_t. yes that's literally all the manpage says about it, don't come for me 🙈
  • length — a size_t. also exactly what it sounds like 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the bson_reader_new_from_data() function shall create a new bson_reader_t using the buffer you supply. that's it, that's the job, and she does it flawlessly ✨

but listen — data is NOT copied 🚨 and it MUST be valid for the lifetime of the resulting bson_reader_t. like, the entire lifetime. the whole time. no cap. if your buffer dips out early, that reader is gonna be reading garbage and it's giving undefined chaos 💀 so keep that buffer alive and thriving, bestie 🧚

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

a newly allocated bson_reader_t. fresh out the box, main character energy, go treat her right 👑
