💅 EMILUA (3em)

okay so bestie, this one's from the Emilua gang — that's the Lua execution engine, no cap. buckle up, it's a short one and it ate 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

Emilua — the Lua execution engine herself 💜

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe check, copy it exactly bestie:

local ip = require "ip"

ip.tcp.get_name_info()
ip.udp.get_name_info()

function(a: ip.address, port: integer)
    -> { host_name: string, service_name: string }[]

like, that's the whole shape of it 🦋

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so what does it actually do? it reverse-resolves the endpoint into a list of entries. that's the main character move right there 💅

⭐ heads up: the current fiber gets suspended until the operation finishes. like it literally just sits there waiting, respectfully 🙈

it returns a list of entries — and each entry is a table holding these members:

• host_name: string. 🍓
• service_name: string. ✨

and if you want more info, it's all over here in the Boost.Asio docs — https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_70_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/ip__basic_resolver/async_resolve/overload6.html 👑

and that's the page, bestie, you understood it perfectly, i'm obsessed 🫶 this was Emilua 0.12.1-nixpkgs1, dated 1980-01-01, and yes that date is iconic in a deeply cursed way 😭💖 slay! 🌈
