TLSRPT_OPEN(3)

💖 NAME 💖

tlsrpt_open — allocates and initializes the struct tlsrpt_connection_t object. bestie it sets the whole thing UP for you, no cap 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <tlsrpt.h>

int tlsrpt_open(struct tlsrpt_connection_t** pcon, const char* socketname)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, tlsrpt_open is the glow-up function 💅 it allocates and initializes the struct tlsrpt_connection_t object, like it literally does both, iconic behaviour.

it also creates the socket and initializes the destination socket address of the TLSRPT collectd. slay.

and here's the tea, bestie: there is no actual connection internally 😭 the socket is a connection-less datagram socket. it's giving "we're not actually talking, we're just throwing lil packets into the void" energy. so don't go expecting a handshake or anything, because that's just not the vibe here.

---

🌸 RETURN VALUE 🌸

• 0 on success — we ate, no crumbs ✨
• a combined error code on failure 😔

and that combined error code? you can analyze it with the tlsrpt_strerror function. go read it, iykyk.
