✨ NAME ✨

pskc_set_key_data_b64secret — the API function that sets your Key Data Secret as a base64 string 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int pskc_set_key_data_b64secret(pskc_key_t * key, const char *
b64secret);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • pskc_key_t * key — a pskc_key_t handle, and you get it from pskc_get_keypackage(). that's the one, that's your main character 🫶
  • const char * b64secret — the base64 encoded secret you want to set. yes queen, hand it over 💅

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so here's the tea ☕ this function sets the PSKC KeyPackage Key Data Secret value in base64, as a zero-terminated string. periodt.

the b64secret data gets copied into the key handle, so after you call this you're totally free to modify or deallocate the b64secret pointer — it's not holding onto your pointer, no cap 🙈

also, the data is base64 decoded right here by this function to verify data validity. lowkey a vibe check on your secret 🔥 and on errors, the old secret is not modified — so nothing gets clowned, your previous value stays safe 💀✋

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

  • PSKC_BASE64_ERROR — when the base64 decoding goes wrong 😭
  • PSKC_MALLOC_ERROR — when memory allocation goes wrong 💀
  • PSKC_OK — on success, slay 👑
