✨ shishi_x509key_default_file_guess(3) ✨

okay bestie, pull up a chair 🎀 this one lives in the shishi manual (section 3, the library-call section, iykyk) and it's a whole little glow-up for your X.509 key situation. it's giving "where did I put my keys" but make it C. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

shishi_x509key_default_file_guess — an API function, and yes she does exactly what her name says 🔥

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <shishi.h>

char * shishi_x509key_default_file_guess(Shishi * handle);

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • Shishi * handle — the Shishi library handle, the one you create with shishi_init(). she's your main character, don't lose her 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, this function guesses the default filename for your X.509 client key 👑

and the guess? it's literally:

$HOME/.shishi/client.key

that's the vibe. that's the whole guess. no cap. 🌈

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

she hands you back the default X.509 client key filename as a string 💫

⚠️ but listen — that string is yours now. you have to deallocate it with free() yourself, because the caller owns it. not me, not shishi, you. don't ghost it, bestie, free your memory 😭
