MONGOC_URI_GET_HOSTS(3)

💅 MONGOC_URI_GET_HOSTS 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to libmongoc's very own host-list grabber — the mongoc_uri_get_hosts page, here to hand you the whole squad of hosts hiding inside your URI. no cap, it's a short one. slay. ✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const mongoc_host_list_t *
mongoc_uri_get_hosts (const mongoc_uri_t *uri);

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one function, takes a URI, gives you hosts. iconic. 🎀

---

🌸 PARAMETERS 🌸

• uri — a mongoc_uri_t. the URI you're snooping through. literally just hand it over and let the function do its thing. 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it actually do? it fetches a linked list of the hosts that were defined in the URI — y'know, that comma-separated host section you typed in. it's giving "here's everyone who showed up to the party" energy. 💖

---

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

you get back a linked list of mongoc_host_list_t structures. and listen — do not modify them, do not free them. like, hands off, bestie. they're not yours to mess with. 🙈

and if this URI's scheme is "mongodb+srv://"? it just hits you with NULL. no hosts for you in that case. the way that scheme said "not today" 😭💀

highkey important: that NULL on "mongodb+srv://" is just how it is — don't go expecting a list there, fr fr.
