cgi_cs_init(3)

✨ cgi_cs_init(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the cgi/cgi.h manual, and it's all about one little function that sets up your CS parser with the CGI defaults 💖 it's giving "short but mighty", fr fr.

🌸 NAME 🌸

cgi_cs_init — initialize CS parser with the CGI defaults

like. that's the whole job. she does one thing and she does it slayfully 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <cgi/cgi.h>

NEOERR *cgi_cs_init(CGI *cgi, CSPARSE **cs);

look at her 😭 so compact. so powerful. two args and a NEOERR * return, periodt.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• cgi — a pointer a CGI struct allocated with cgi_init. yes bestie, she has to come from cgi_init specifically, don't just hand her a random struct, that's not the vibe 🫶
• cs — a pointer to a CS struct pointer. double pointer moment 👑 (so she can write the freshly allocated/initialized CS struct back out to you, iykyk)

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

cgi_cs_init initializes a CS parser with the CGI HDF context, and registers the standard CGI filters ✨

that's it. that's the whole tea. she spins up the parser, hands it the CGI HDF context so it knows what's going on, and then registers all the standard CGI filters so everything downstream just works. main character energy, honestly 💜

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

• cs — the allocated/initialized CS struct 🎀 that's your prize bestie, go forth and parse.
