πŸ’… MONGOC_URI_SET_OPTION_AS_UTF8(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in libmongoc, and the whole entire page is literally about MONGOC_URI_SET_OPTION_AS_UTF8(3) β€” say that five times fast, i dare you 🫢. it's the glow-up-your-URI-after-the-fact function, and honestly? she ate.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool
mongoc_uri_set_option_as_utf8 (const mongoc_uri_t *uri,
                               const char *option,
                               utf8 value);

like, that's the whole vibe. bool in, bool out, no cap πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • uri β€” a mongoc_uri_t. the main character of this whole situation πŸ‘‘
  • option β€” the name of an option. and listen: it's case insensitive, so don't stress about your shift key fr fr πŸ”₯
  • value β€” the new value. this is the string you're dropping in πŸ¦‹

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically this function sets one individual URI option β€” after the URI has already been parsed from a string. like, the parsing part already happened, bestie, we're in the post-parse era now ✨

only known string-type options can be set. that's the vibe check, and not everyone passes it πŸ’€

here's the cute part: it updates the option in-place if it's already set, otherwise it appends it to the URI's bson_t of options. either way she's in there 🌈


⭐ RETURNS ⭐

returns true if it was successfully set β€” which means the named option is a known option of string type. slay πŸŽ€
