✨ shishi_authenticator_read(3) ✨ — the shishi girlies' manual 💅

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about shishi_authenticator_read 🫶 this one lives in the shishi manual, section 3, and it is literally the moment your DER-encoded authenticator comes home. no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

shishi_authenticator_read — it's an API function, babe. that's the whole job description. iconic.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <shishi.h>

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

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • Shishi * handle — your shishi handle, the one you got from shishi_init(). it's giving main character energy, everything runs through her.
  • FILE * fh — a file handle that's open for reading. she's open, she's ready, she's not here to be written to. 📖
  • Shishi_asn1 * authenticator — output variable that receives the newly allocated authenticator. yes bestie, newly allocated, that memory is yours to deal with. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Reads a DER encoded authenticator from the file and populates the authenticator variable you handed over. so like: file goes in, shiny authenticator comes out. the way that DER encoding just works 😭✨

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

Returns SHISHI_OK iff it succeeded. that's it, that's the vibe check. anything else means something went sideways. 💀
