lsm_connect_password(3)

💖 lsm_connect_password(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual — yes, the whole manual, and yes, we're doing this. This page is literally just about lsm_connect_password, and she's giving gateway to every other library call energy. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

lsm_connect_password — Get a connection to a storage provider. 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lsm_connect_password (const char *uri, const char *password,
lsm_connect **conn, uint32_t timeout, lsm_error_ptr *e, lsm_flag flags);

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• uri — the Uniform Resource Identifier, no cap. (go read the URI documentation, iykyk 🔥)
• password — the password for the storage array. She's optional, so she can be NULL. 💅
• conn — the connection you'll use for all the other library calls. The way that when you're done with it you must free it with a call to lsm_connect_close — don't leave her hanging, that's rude. 😭
• timeout — time-out in milliseconds (the initial value). ⏳
• e — error data, if the connection failed. 🙈
• flags — reserved for future use, so it must be LSM_CLIENT_FLAG_RSVD. No improvising, babe. ✨

✨ VERSION ✨

1.0 ⭐

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Get a connection to a storage provider. That's it, that's the whole vibe. 👑

---

✨ RETURN ✨

The error code, as enumerated by lsm_error_number. So iconic of her:

• LSM_ERR_OK — on success. 🎉
• LSM_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT — when any argument is NULL, or the flags are invalid. 💀

ngl, if you're getting LSM_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT, check your NULLs first. fr fr.
