πŸ‘‘ TSMGMTSTRINGGET β€” the manual page, bestie edition

okay so this is the man page for TSMgmtStringGet, and it lives in section 3ts of the Apache Traffic Server docs. That's the whole vibe check. Sit down, grab a boba πŸ§‹, this one's short and honestly kinda mysterious.


✨ NAME ✨

TSMgmtStringGet β€” literally the TSMgmtStringGet API function. That's it. That's the name. Iconic of it to just say its own name twice πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's how you summon it, copy-paste style, no cap:

#include <ts/ts.h>

TSReturnCode TSMgmtStringGet(const char *var_name, TSMgmtString *result)

so to recap what you're looking at: you pull in <ts/ts.h>, and then the function hands you back a TSReturnCode, and it wants two things from you β€” a const char *var_name and a TSMgmtString *result. that's the shape of it, fr fr ✨


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so. bestie. the description section… is empty.

like, genuinely empty. the original page has the heading DESCRIPTION and then absolutely nothing under it. no prose, no notes, no lore. it's giving "we left space for a personality and then didn't fill it in" 😭

so i'm not gonna make stuff up about what it does, because that would be lying to you and i would never 🫢 what we can see, straight from the synopsis, is:

  • it's declared in <ts/ts.h>
  • it returns a TSReturnCode
  • it takes a const char *var_name as its first argument
  • it takes a TSMgmtString *result as its second argument

and that's the full tea. anything beyond that isn't in this page, so it's not in mine either. periodt πŸ’€

ngl if you need the actual behaviour, go read the source or the rest of the Traffic Server docs β€” this man page is not gonna be your girl on that one πŸ™ˆ
