💖 NAME 💖

globus_uuid — the Globus UUID Generator ✨

And like, that's it, that's the whole thing. The source literally also says: " - UUID Generator." So yeah bestie, it generates UUIDs. That's the assignment and it ate. 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

🎀 Functions 🎀

• int globus_uuid_create (globus_uuid_t *uuid) — Create UUID. It makes a time based, Leach-Salz variant uuid, and it uses the mac address when one is available. "
• int globus_uuid_import (globus_uuid_t *uuid, const char *str) — Import a UUID. It takes a string in the text UUID format and turns it into a globus_uuid_t value. "
• int globus_uuid_fields (globus_uuid_t *uuid, globus_uuid_fields_t *uuid_fields) — Extract fields from UUID. It copies the fields out of uuid and into uuid_fields, in host byte order. "

🌸 Detailed Description 🌸

UUID Generator.

No like genuinely, that's the detailed description. The whole thing. It generates UUIDs, bestie. Slay, I guess. 💅

🔥 Function Documentation 🔥

🌈 int globus_uuid_fields (globus_uuid_t * uuid, globus_uuid_fields_t * uuid_fields) 🌈

Extract fields from UUID

So what this does is copy the fields from uuid over into uuid_fields, and it does it in host byte order — so, like, the byte order of the machine you're actually running on, not whatever network nonsense. 🫶

Parameters

• uuid — Pointer to a uuid.
• uuid_fields — Pointer to uuid fields.

🧚 int globus_uuid_import (globus_uuid_t * uuid, const char * str) 🧚

Import a UUID

This one takes a string in the text UUID format and imports it into a globus_uuid_t value. It's giving glow-up from text to struct, no cap. ✨

Parameters

• uuid — UUID to modify
• str — A string at least GLOBUS_UUID_TEXTLEN long and be in the format like 1b4e28ba-2fa1-11d2-883f-b9a761bde3fb

Heads up bestie, look at the digits so you know exactly where each byte sits 👇
