MONGOC_GRIDFS...T_CONTENT_TYPE(3)

πŸ’… MONGOC_GRIDFS...T_CONTENT_TYPE(3) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the libmongoc corner of the manual β€” this one's about mongoc_gridfs_file_set_content_type, and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big main character energy" ✨


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
mongoc_gridfs_file_set_content_type (mongoc_gridfs_file_t *file,
                                     const char *content_type);

that's the whole vibe β€” no return value, it just does the thing 🫢


πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • file β€” a mongoc_gridfs_file_t. like, the gridfs file you're obsessed with rn πŸ’–
  • str β€” a string holding the content type. yes, the synopsis calls it content_type and this list calls it str, that's just how the manpage is living its life, no cap πŸ™ˆ

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this one sets the content type for the gridfs file. it should be something like "text/plain" β€” y'know, classic mime-type behavior, very demure, very mindful πŸ’…

⚠️ okay this part is important: you need to call mongoc_gridfs_file_save() to persist this change. setting it alone is like texting someone without hitting send β€” the vibe is there but nothing actually happened 😭
