💖 shishi_authenticator_print 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi manual, section 3 (that's the library-functions girlies, iykyk) ✨ this one's about shishi_authenticator_print, and no cap it's a tiny little icon.

🌸 NAME 🌸

shishi_authenticator_print — it's an API function, fr fr 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <shishi.h>

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

like, that's the whole vibe. three args, one int coming back at you 💜

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Shishi * handle — your shishi handle, the one you got handed by shishi_init(). it's literally the main character of every shishi call, so bring it everywhere 🫶
  • FILE * fh — a file handle that's open for writing. not reading, bestie, writing. the data's gotta go somewhere ✨
  • Shishi_asn1 authenticator — the authenticator itself, as allocated by shishi_authenticator(). it's giving "i was made for this exact moment" 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So what does it actually DO? It prints the ASCII armored DER encoding of authenticator to the file. that's it, that's the whole job — no side quests, no drama, just your authenticator getting all armored up and written out to fh 🛡️💖

💫 RETURN VALUE 💫

Returns SHISHI_OK iff successful. periodt. anything else means it wasn't successful, so maybe don't ignore that return value, bestie 😭

🙈 REPORTING BUGS 🙈

found a bug? don't suffer in silence, tell the devs 🫶 Report bugs to <bug-shishi@gnu.org>.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

The full documentation for shishi is maintained as a Texinfo manual 📚 if the info and shishi programs are properly installed at your site, the command

info shishi

should give you access to the complete manual. that's your one-stop shop, bestie, go read it 🦋

lowkey the whole thing is just: init your handle, make an authenticator, open a file, print it, check for SHISHI_OK. slay 💅

and that's a wrap on the shishi manual, version 1.0.3, dated shishi_authenticator_print(3) — mwah, take care of yourself and your file handles, bestie 💖🎀✨
