💅 MONGOC_URI_GET_AUTH_SOURCE(3) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the <libmongoc> manual, page MONGOC_URI_GET_AUTH_SOURCE(3) — yes the name is a whole mouthful, we know, but it's iconic and we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char *
mongoc_uri_get_auth_source (const mongoc_uri_t *uri);

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one function, no cap 💅

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • uri — a mongoc_uri_t. literally just the URI object, hand it over and let the function do its thing 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does it actually do? it fetches the authSource parameter of a URI — but only if you actually provided one. like, if it's in there, it's giving found. if it's not, well... read the next section bestie 😭

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

it gives you back a string 💖 — and lowkey this is the important part — that string should not be modified or freed if the authSource parameter is provided. do not touch it, do not free it, do not come for it, it is not yours to manage. 🙂‍↔️

but if the authSource parameter was not provided? you get NULL. that's the whole deal, no cap.
