💅 MONGOC_URI_GET_SRV_HOSTNAME(3) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the libmongoc corner of the manual, where we're talking about mongoc_uri_get_srv_hostname — yes that's a whole mouthful, i know, but stay with me 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char *
mongoc_uri_get_srv_hostname (const mongoc_uri_t *uri);

like, that's the whole signature. she's short, she's sweet, she's giving minimalist icon 💜

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• uri — a mongoc_uri_t. that's it. that's the whole vibe check. one (1) URI struct, hand it over 🫴

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does she actually do? she returns the SRV host and domain name of a MongoDB URI. literally that's the tea ☕ the way that this function just reaches into your URI and pulls out the SRV hostname… obsessed.

---

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

here's where it gets spicy 🔥 she gives you back a string if this URI's scheme is "mongodb+srv://" — but if the scheme is "mongodb://", she hits you with a NULL. no SRV for you, bestie, sorry 😭

ngl, keep an eye on that return value before you go dereferencing it — NULL is a real possibility here, fr fr 💀
