✨ MONGOC_URI_GET_AUTH_MECHANISM ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in libmongoc (that's the manual name, hi 👋) and it's literally one of those tiny little getters that does exactly one thing and does it well. no drama, no cap. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

const char *
mongoc_uri_get_auth_mechanism (const mongoc_uri_t *uri);

that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

💜 PARAMETERS 💜

  • uri — a mongoc_uri_t. like, the URI. the whole point. you gotta hand her one. 💅

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

so here's the tea: this function fetches the authMechanism parameter to an URI if provided. 🍓

that's the entire lore. if your URI had an authMechanism parameter tucked in there, this is how you go get it. iykyk. ✨

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

you get back a string, and listen — you should NOT modify it or free it. it's not yours to mess with, bestie, hands off 🙈. it's just a peek, not a gift.

and if the authMechanism parameter was not provided to uri? you get NULL. no param, no string, no problem. 💀

fr fr do not free that string. i'm serious. that's how you get memory chaos and we are not doing that today. 💖
