It is based on +the XDG Base Directory Specification, the latest version of which (0.7) can be +found [here](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/0.7/). + +The XDG Base Directories Specification is a definition of the directories where +things like a program's configuration files and stored data ought to be written +to and read from, along with the order of precedence to be used when searching +for those kinds of files. If you've ever seen a program that stores its +configurations in the `.config` directory, that program is, at least in part, +following this specification. + +This crystal interface to the specification provides methods for simply listing +the base directories, as well as a helper method for easily building file paths +relative to them. + + +installation +------------ + +First, add the dependency to your project's `shard.yml` file: + +```yaml +dependencies: + xdg_basedir: + github: shmibs/xdg_basedir +``` + +and then run `shards install`. + + +usage +----- + +Suppose you're writing a program called `program_name`, and you want to read +one of its configuration files, `file_name.conf`. After reading, you want to +perform some operation on the contents of the file, and then write the new +contents back to `file_name.conf`. Using this module, that might look something +like the following: + +```crystal +require "xdg_basedir" + +# Note: for simplicity's sake, exception handling has been ignored for the +# calls to File.read and File.write + +# typically, files in the XDG Base Directories will be first sorted into +# directories, based on the program that uses them. This isn't always the case +# however, and so it is not enforced +read_path = XDGBasedir.full_path("program_name/file_name.conf", :config, :read) + +# the specification dictates that base directory locations be determined using +# both the state of the filesystem and the state of certain environment +# variables. it's thus possible that an appropriate base directory won't be +# found, so a nil check is required +if read_path + contents = File.read(read_path) + + # ...do something with the contents here... + + # write_path here is not necessarily the same as read_path above. full_path + # above will check through the hierarchy of fallback base directories and, if + # it finds the target, return the path into the directory where it was found. + # there is only one base directory for writing, however, and so it is always + # returned here. this means that the first time program_name is run, it might + # read in some system-wide config, write back a user-specific config, and + # then read the user-specific version thereafter + write_path = XDGBasedir.full_path("program_name/file_name.conf", :config, + :write) + + # again, nil check necessary... + if write_path + File.write(write_path, contents) + end +end +``` + +The `full_path` method takes an argument *type*, which was set above to +`:config`. This argument indicates the type of files that are stored in the +base directory that should be selected. There are four possible types: + +- `:data` directories are used for storing and retrieving persistent files + across multiple runs of a program. +- `:config` directories are used for storing and retrieving a program's + configuration files. +- `:cache` directories are used for storing non-essential data which may or may + not be retained +- `:runtime` directories are used for storing runtime files (e.g. lock files or + sockets) + +Every method defined under `XDGBasedir` takes one of these types as an +argument. + +In addition to `full_path`, two lower-level methods are also provided: + +- `write_dir`, which returns the single directory where files of a given type + should be written +- `read_dirs`, which returns a hierarchical list of base directories from which + files of a given type should be read + +However, these two methods will probably be less useful. + + +license +------- + +This library is licensed under [The MIT +License](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT). diff --git a/shard.yml b/shard.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8146c4c --- /dev/null +++ b/shard.yml @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +name: xdg_basedir +version: 1.0.0 + +authors: + - katherine + +crystal: 0.27.0 + +license: MIT diff --git a/spec/spec_helper.cr b/spec/spec_helper.cr new file mode 100644 index 0000000..38f3f4a --- /dev/null +++ b/spec/spec_helper.cr @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +require "spec" +require "../src/xdg_basedir" diff --git a/spec/xdg_basedir_spec.cr b/spec/xdg_basedir_spec.cr new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1895439 --- /dev/null +++ b/spec/xdg_basedir_spec.cr @@ -0,0 +1,50 @@ +require "./spec_helper" + +# NOTE: these tests are non-exhaustive and may fail, as they depend on the +# state of the filesystem and environment +describe XDGBasedir do + + it "finds previously written files using full_path" do + p = XDGBasedir.full_path "xdg_basedir_test_file_1", :data, "w" + unless p + next + end + File.write p, "content" + + p = XDGBasedir.full_path "xdg_basedir_test_file_1", :data, "r" + unless p + next + end + + s = File.read p + f = File.new p + f.delete + + s.should eq("content") + end + + it "finds previously written files using dir methods" do + d = XDGBasedir.write_dir :config + unless d + next + end + File.write "#{d}xdg_basedir_test_file_2" , "content" + + l = XDGBasedir.read_dirs :config + unless l + next + end + + s = File.read "#{l[0]}xdg_basedir_test_file_2" + f = File.new "#{d}xdg_basedir_test_file_2" + f.delete + + s.should eq("content") + end + + it "fails on bad arguments" do + expect_raises(ArgumentError) { XDGBasedir.write_dir :bad } + expect_raises(ArgumentError) { XDGBasedir.read_dirs :bad } + expect_raises(ArgumentError) { XDGBasedir.full_path "rel_path", :bad } + end +end diff --git a/src/xdg_basedir.cr b/src/xdg_basedir.cr new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b406841 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/xdg_basedir.cr @@ -0,0 +1,299 @@ +# This module implements an interface to the XDG Base Directories, compliant +# with version 0.7 of the XDG Base Directory Specification. +# +# Provided are methods for locating XDG Base Directories at runtime, as well as +# a helper method for easily building full file paths relative to them. +# +# Each of the operations below can be performed on one of four categories of +# directories, designated via an argument *type* of value `:data`, `:config`, +# `:cache`, or `:runtime`. +# +# - `:data` directories are used for storing and retrieving persistent files +# across multiple runs of a program. +# - `:config` directories are used for storing and retrieving a program's +# configuration files. +# - `:cache` directories are used for storing non-essential data which may or +# may not be retained +# - `:runtime` directories are used for storing runtime files (e.g. lock files +# or sockets) +# +# For more details, please refer to the specification, which is available +# online [here](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/0.7/). +module XDGBasedir + VERSION = "1.0.0" + + # get the base directory into which files of a given *type* should be written + # + # Given a *type* of `:data`, `:config`, `:cache`, or `:runtime`, this method + # returns a single directory into which data of that type should be written, + # or else `nil`, if no appropriate candidate is found. + # + # If a directory is returned, it is guaranteed to always have a terminating + # '/' character, meaning that, when trying to write a file, it is safe to + # directly concatenate the directory and the file path that is to be written + # to within it. + # + # ### Example + # + # dir = XDGBasedir.write_dir :config + # if dir + # File.write "#{dir}created/file.conf", "contents" + # end + # + def self.write_dir(type = :config) : String?
