MONGOC_URI_GET_SSL(3)
π MONGOC_URI_GET_SSL(3) π
okay bestie, so this one's from libmongoc, and it's a lil function called mongoc_uri_get_ssl. it's giving "legacy but iconic" honestly. let's get into it π«Ά
π¨ WARNING π¨
Deprecated since version 1.15.0: Use mongoc_uri_get_tls() instead.
likeβ¦ she's retired, queen. still works (presumably) but the girlies have moved on. if you're writing new code, go talk to mongoc_uri_get_tls() instead, fr fr. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
bool
mongoc_uri_get_ssl (const mongoc_uri_t *uri);
that's it. that's the whole signature. short and sweet, main character energy. π
π PARAMETERS π
uriβ amongoc_uri_t. that's the one and only thing you're handing her. π¦
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so what does she actually do? she fetches a boolean that tells you whether TLS was specified for use in the URI. that's the vibe check. did you ask for TLS in your connection string or not? she'll let you know. β
π RETURNS π
she hands back a boolean β true meaning TLS should be used. β¨
and here's the lil detail that matters: she returns true if any TLS option is specified. not "the right one," not "the one you meant" β literally any of them. so don't be out here assuming she's doing a full audit of your config, she's just checking if the vibe is present at all. π
