Functions

fn cache[link] 

fn cache(prog: str) str;

Returns a directory suitable for cache files. The "prog" parameter should be a descriptive name unique to this program. The return value is statically allocated and will be overwritten on subsequent calls to any function in the dirs module.

fn cachefs[link] 

fn cachefs(prog: str) *fs::fs;

Returns an fs::fs for cache files.

fn config[link] 

fn config(prog: str) str;

Returns a directory suitable for storing config files. The "prog" parameter should be a descriptive name unique to this program. The return value is statically allocated and will be overwritten on subsequent calls to any function in the dirs module.

fn configfs[link] 

fn configfs(prog: str) *fs::fs;

Returns an fs::fs for storing config files. The "prog" parameter should be a descriptive name unique to this program.

fn data[link] 

fn data(prog: str) str;

Returns a directory suitable for persistent data files. The "prog" parameter should be a descriptive name unique to this program. The return value is statically allocated and will be overwritten on subsequent calls to any function in the dirs module.

fn datafs[link] 

fn datafs(prog: str) *fs::fs;

Returns an fs::fs for persistent data files. If "prog" is given, a unique path for this program to store data will be returned.

fn state[link] 

fn state(prog: str) str;

Returns a directory suitable for storing program state data. The "prog" parameter should be a descriptive name unique to this program. The return value is statically allocated and will be overwritten on subsequent calls to any function in the dirs module.

fn statefs[link] 

fn statefs(prog: str) *fs::fs;

Returns an fs::fs for storing program state data.
