Package Exports

appdirsjs
appdirsjs/dist/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (appdirsjs) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

appdirsjs

A node.js library to get paths to directories to store configs, caches and data according to OS standarts.

Installation

npm install appdirsjs

yarn install appdirsjs

if you're using yarn.

Usage

import appDirs from "appdirsjs";

const dirs = appDirs({ appName: "expo" });

console.log(dirs.cache);
// /home/user/.cache/expo on Linux
// /Users/User/Library/Caches/expo on MacOS
// C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\expo on Windows

console.log(dirs.config);
// /home/user/.config/expo on Linux
// /Users/User/Library/Preferences/expo on MacOS
// C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\expo

console.log(dirs.data);
// /home/user/.local/share/expo on Linux
// /Users/User/Library/Application Support/expo on MacOS
// C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\expo

Keep backward compability

Then switching from old-style dotfile directory, such as ~/.myapp to new, like ~/.config/myapp, you can pass legacyPath parameter to keep using old directory if it exists:

import * as path from "path";
import appDirs from "appdirsjs";

const dirs = appDirs({
  appName: "expo",
  // Notice usage of full path
  legacyPath: path.join(os.homedir(), ".expo"),
});

console.log(dirs.config);
// /home/user/.expo
