SYNOPSIS
bool
mongoc_client_encryption_encrypt (
mongoc_client_encryption_t *client_encryption,
const bson_value_t *value,
mongoc_client_encryption_encrypt_opts_t *opts,
bson_value_t *ciphertext,
bson_error_t *error);
Performs explicit encryption.
ciphertext is always initialized (even on failure). Caller must call bson_value_destroy() to free.
To insert or query with an "Indexed" or "Range" encrypted payload, use a mongoc_client_t configured with
mongoc_auto_encryption_opts_t. The mongoc_auto_encryption_opts_t may be configured to bypass query
analysis with mongoc_auto_encryption_opts_set_bypass_query_analysis(). The mongoc_auto_encryption_opts_t
must not be configured to bypass automatic encryption with
mongoc_auto_encryption_opts_set_bypass_auto_encryption().
To insert with a Range payload mongoc_client_encryption_encrypt_range_opts_t must be set in opts.
To query with a Range payload, use mongoc_client_encryption_encrypt_expression()
PARAMETERS
• client_encryption: A mongoc_client_encryption_t
• value: The value to encrypt.
• opts: A mongoc_client_encryption_encrypt_opts_t.
• ciphertext: A bson_value_t for the resulting ciphertext (a BSON binary with subtype 6).
• error: A bson_error_t set on failure.
RETURNS
Returns true if successful. Returns false and sets error otherwise.
