Synopsis

Documentation

exeExtension :: String #

Filename extension for executable files (including the dot if any) (usually "" on POSIX systems and ".exe" on Windows or OS/2).

Since: directory-1.2.4.0

data XdgDirectory #

Special directories for storing user-specific application data, configuration, and cache files, as specified by the XDG Base Directory Specification.

Note: On Windows, XdgData and XdgConfig usually map to the same directory.

Since: directory-1.2.3.0

Constructors

XdgData

For data files (e.g. images). It uses the XDG_DATA_HOME environment variable. On non-Windows systems, the default is ~/.local/share. On Windows, the default is %APPDATA% (e.g. C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Roaming). Can be considered as the user-specific equivalent of /usr/share.

XdgConfig

For configuration files. It uses the XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable. On non-Windows systems, the default is ~/.config. On Windows, the default is %APPDATA% (e.g. C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Roaming). Can be considered as the user-specific equivalent of /etc.

XdgCache

For non-essential files (e.g. cache). It uses the XDG_CACHE_HOME environment variable. On non-Windows systems, the default is ~/.cache. On Windows, the default is %LOCALAPPDATA% (e.g. C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Local). Can be considered as the user-specific equivalent of /var/cache.

XdgState

For data that should persist between (application) restarts, but that is not important or portable enough to the user that it should be stored in XdgData. It uses the XDG_STATE_HOME environment variable. On non-Windows sytems, the default is ~/.local/state. On Windows, the default is %LOCALAPPDATA% (e.g. C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Local).

Since: directory-1.3.7.0

data XdgDirectoryList #

Search paths for various application data, as specified by the XDG Base Directory Specification.

The list of paths is split using searchPathSeparator, which on Windows is a semicolon.

Note: On Windows, XdgDataDirs and XdgConfigDirs usually yield the same result.

Since: directory-1.3.2.0

Constructors

XdgDataDirs

For data files (e.g. images). It uses the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable. On non-Windows systems, the default is /usr/local/share/ and /usr/share/. On Windows, the default is %PROGRAMDATA% or %ALLUSERSPROFILE% (e.g. C:/ProgramData).

XdgConfigDirs

For configuration files. It uses the XDG_CONFIG_DIRS environment variable. On non-Windows systems, the default is /etc/xdg. On Windows, the default is %PROGRAMDATA% or %ALLUSERSPROFILE% (e.g. C:/ProgramData).
