💅 MONGOC_STREAM_SHOULD_RETRY(3) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the libmongoc manual — this one's a tiny little function but it's honestly kind of the main character of your error-handling arc 🫶. It's called mongoc_stream_should_retry, and no cap, once you get what it does you'll be checking it everywhere. iykyk 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool
mongoc_stream_should_retry (mongoc_stream_t *stream);

literally that's it. one argument in, one bool out. slay. ✨

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • stream — a mongoc_stream_t. that's the stream you're vibe-checking, bestie. that's the whole parameter list, we're done here 💅

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

It hands you back True if either of these two iconic situations is happening:

  • the stream is open and it's hit a retryable network error like EAGAIN 😭 — like, not fatal, just "girl give me a sec"
  • a TLS exchange is in progress and it needs more data before it can keep going 🦋

so basically: True = go ahead and try again. it's giving "not now but soon" energy 🔥

ngl, this is the check you want before you go retrying stuff — don't just assume, ask the stream how it's feeling first 🙈
