Package configdir provides a cross platform means of detecting the system's
|
||
|
|
configuration directories.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This makes it easy to program your Go app to store its configuration files in
|
||
|
|
a standard location relevant to the host operating system. For Linux and some
|
||
|
|
other Unixes (like BSD) this means following the Freedesktop.org XDG Base
|
||
|
|
Directory Specification 0.8, and for Windows and macOS it uses their standard
|
||
|
|
directories.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a simple no-nonsense module that just gives you the paths, with
|
||
|
|
optional components tacked on the end for vendor- or app-specific namespacing.
|
||
|
|
It also provides a convenience function to call `os.MkdirAll()` on the paths to
|
||
|
|
ensure they exist and are ready for you to read and write files in.
