✨ shishi_cipher_parse ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi girlies' corner 💖 this one lives in section 3 of the manual (the library-functions section, iykyk), and it's a tiny little glow-up of a function. no cap, it's short, but it's so useful.

🌸 NAME 🌸

shishi_cipher_parse — it's an API function 🎀 that's literally the whole job description.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_cipher_parse(const char * cipher);

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • const char * cipher — bestie this is just the name of the encryption type, like as a string, e.g. "des3-cbc-sha1-kd". that's it. that's the whole input. 🫶

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so the vibe here is: you hand it a string, and it goes and gets you the cipher number by parsing that string. like a little translator between "cute human-readable name" and "number the code actually wants". obsessed. ✨

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

it returns the encryption type that corresponds to your string. the string goes in, the matching encryption type comes out. periodt. 💅

🙈 REPORTING BUGS 🙈

found a bug? not me manifesting that 😭 but fr fr, report it to <bug-shishi@gnu.org>.
