ldb_module_ops(3)

✨ ldb_module_ops ✨

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let's talk about ldb_module_ops — a whole lil struct of function pointers from the LDB library's function manual 💅 this is the vibe: it's the ops table a module hands over so LDB knows what it can actually do. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the fields, in order, do not skip any 🫶

const char * name
int(* init_context )(struct ldb_module *)
int(* search )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* add )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* modify )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* del )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* rename )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* request )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* extended )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* start_transaction )(struct ldb_module *)
int(* prepare_commit )(struct ldb_module *)
int(* end_transaction )(struct ldb_module *)
int(* del_transaction )(struct ldb_module *)
int(* sequence_number )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *)
int(* read_lock )(struct ldb_module *)
int(* read_unlock )(struct ldb_module *)
void * private_data

🎀 Data Fields, one by one, no crumbs

• const char * name — the module's name. its whole identity. main character energy, but like, a string.
• int(* init_context )(struct ldb_module *) — called to set up the module's context. the getting-ready-with-me moment 💖
• int(* search )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the search handler. it's giving "let me look that up for you".
• int(* add )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the add handler. new entry just dropped ✨
• int(* modify )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the modify handler. glow-up, but for a record.
• int(* del )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the delete handler. it said bye and meant it 💀
• int(* rename )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the rename handler. rebranding arc.
• int(* request )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the generic request handler. catches everything, lowkey the understudy that's always on.
• int(* extended )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the extended-operation handler. the ✨special edition✨ path.
• int(* start_transaction )(struct ldb_module *) — kicks off a transaction. buckle up, we're committing to something 🫶
• int(* prepare_commit )(struct ldb_module *) — the prepare step before the commit. final outfit check before leaving the house.
• int(* end_transaction )(struct ldb_module *) — wraps the transaction up. periodt.
• int(* del_transaction )(struct ldb_module *) — abandons/deletes the transaction. not me cancelling plans 😭
• int(* sequence_number )(struct ldb_module *, struct ldb_request *) — the sequence-number handler. keeping the numbers in line, fr fr.
• int(* read_lock )(struct ldb_module *) — grabs the read lock. nobody touch anything 🔒
• int(* read_unlock )(struct ldb_module *) — releases the read lock. okay you can look now.
• void * private_data — a lil void pointer for the module's own private stuff. it's private! 🙈 iykyk.

heads up bestie: this is literally just the ops struct — every one of these fields is exactly what it says and nothing more. don't go reading extra behaviour into them, that's not the assignment. 💜
