MONGOC_URI_GET_OPTIONS(3)

✨ MONGOC_URI_GET_OPTIONS πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to MONGOC_URI_GET_OPTIONS(3) β€” that's a section 3 manual page from libmongoc, and honestly? she's a little icon. tiny function, huge main character energy. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

const bson_t *
mongoc_uri_get_options (const mongoc_uri_t *uri);

that's it. that's the whole signature. no cap. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ PARAMETERS πŸ¦‹

  • uri β€” a mongoc_uri_t. like, the URI object. you know her, you love her, she's the one holding all your connection info πŸ’–

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

so what does she do?? she fetches a bson document containing all of the options that were provided after the ? of a URI. literally all of them. every single one hanging out after that question mark β€” she scoops them up into a bson doc for you. the way that ? is just a doorway and she's holding it open 😭✨


⭐ RETURNS ⭐

a bson_t β€” and hear me out, because this part is important:

  • if uri has options provided, you get that bson_t, and it should not be modified or freed. like, hands off. don't touch. don't free. she's not yours to keep, she's a borrow πŸ«ΆπŸ’€
  • otherwise? NULL. yeah. if there's no options, there's no doc. that's the vibe check and it did not pass 🧚
