✨ shishi_authenticator_parse(3) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi girlies 💅 this one is a little C function from the shishi manual, section 3, and it's literally just "read an authenticator off a file, babe". no drama. let's go 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

shishi_authenticator_parse — it's an API function 💖 that's the whole job description, and she's serving it.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_authenticator_parse(Shishi * handle, FILE * fh, Shishi_asn1 *
authenticator);

that's the whole entrance, no cap ✨

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Shishi * handle — your shishi handle, the one you got from shishi_init(). she's the main character here, allocated and everything 👑
  • FILE * fh — a file handle, and it has to be open for reading fr fr. don't come at her with a write handle 🙈
  • Shishi_asn1 * authenticator — an output variable, and she gets a newly allocated authenticator dropped into her 🫶 that's the whole point

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So basically: this function reads an ASCII armored DER encoded authenticator from a file and populates the authenticator variable you handed her. read → populate → done. it's giving "glow up via file I/O" ✨

like, you give her the handle, the file, and an authenticator to fill, and she fills it. obsessed 💖

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

Returns SHISHI_OK iff successful 🌈 — and yes, "iff" is doing its little math-girl thing, she means if and only if, periodt.
