MONGOC_GRIDFS_FILE_OPT_T(3)

πŸ’… MONGOC_GRIDFS_FILE_OPT_T(3) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, this one lives in libmongoc and honestly? it's a little baby page but it's important, so let's give it the attention it deserves πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

typedef struct {
   const char *md5;
   const char *filename;
   const char *content_type;
   const bson_t *aliases;
   const bson_t *metadata;
   uint32_t chunk_size;
} mongoc_gridfs_file_opt_t;

like, literally just a struct. six fields. no cap, that's the whole thing 🫢


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this structure is where you keep the options that can be set on a mongoc_gridfs_file_t. bestie, it's giving "settings menu but make it C" πŸ’…

the way it works: various functions reach for this lil guy when creating a new gridfs file. that's it. that's the vibe. it's the options bag you hand over ✨

and because we're being thorough (we always are), here's every single field, exactly as declared, no skipping, no summarising πŸ”₯

  • const char *md5 β€” a const char * field chilling right at the top of the struct πŸ’–
  • const char *filename β€” another const char *, and yes the name is a whole clue, iykyk πŸ¦‹
  • const char *content_type β€” third const char * in a row, the struct said "consistency" and ate πŸ‘‘
  • const bson_t *aliases β€” a const bson_t *, so it's pointing at a bson document, periodt πŸŽ€
  • const bson_t *metadata β€” also a const bson_t *, matching its sibling, we love a coordinated moment 🌈
  • uint32_t chunk_size β€” and the last one switches it up: a uint32_t, unsigned and 32 bits wide, main character energy 😭
ngl, all six are declared const except chunk_size which is a plain uint32_t value β€” that's literally what's written up there, so don't come for me πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’œ AUTHOR πŸ’œ
