NAME

mongoc_client_get_server_descriptions - mongoc_client_get_server_descriptions()

SYNOPSIS

mongoc_server_description_t **
mongoc_client_get_server_descriptions (const mongoc_client_t *client,

size_t *n) BSON_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT;


Fetches an array of mongoc_server_description_t structs for all known servers in the topology. Returns no servers until the client connects. Returns a single server if the client is directly connected, or all members of a replica set if the client's MongoDB URI includes a "replicaSet" option, or all known mongos servers if the MongoDB URI includes a list of them.

void
show_servers (const mongoc_client_t *client)
{

bson_t *b = BCON_NEW ("ping", BCON_INT32 (1));
bson_error_t error;
bool r;
mongoc_server_description_t **sds;
size_t i, n;
/* ensure client has connected */
r = mongoc_client_command_simple (client, "db", b, NULL, NULL, &error);
if (!r) {
MONGOC_ERROR ("could not connect: %s\n", error.message);
return;
}
sds = mongoc_client_get_server_descriptions (client, &n);
for (i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
printf ("%s\n", mongoc_server_description_host (sds[i])->host_and_port);
}
mongoc_server_descriptions_destroy_all (sds, n);
bson_destroy (&b); }


PARAMETERS

  • n: Receives the length of the descriptions array.
