configdir for Golang
=====================

Multi platform library of configuration directory for Golang.

This library helps to get regular directories for configuration files or cache files that matches target operationg system's convention.

It assumes the following folders are standard paths of each environment:

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1

   - * 
     * Windows:
     * Linux/BSDs:
     * MacOSX:
   - * System level configuration folder
     * ``%PROGRAMDATA%`` (``C:\\ProgramData``)
     * ``${XDG_CONFIG_DIRS}`` (``/etc/xdg``)
     * ``/Library/Application Support``
   - * User level configuration folder
     * ``%APPDATA%`` (``C:\\Users\\<User>\\AppData\\Roaming``)
     * ``${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}`` (``${HOME}/.config``)
     * ``${HOME}/Library/Application Support``
   - * User wide cache folder
     * ``%LOCALAPPDATA%`` ``(C:\\Users\\<User>\\AppData\\Local)``
     * ``${XDG_CACHE_HOME}`` (``${HOME}/.cache``)
     * ``${HOME}/Library/Caches``

Examples
------------

Getting Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

``configdir.ConfigDir.QueryFolderContainsFile()`` searches files in the following order:

* Local path (if you add the path via LocalPath parameter)
* User level configuration folder(e.g. ``$HOME/.config/<vendor-name>/<application-name>/setting.json`` in Linux)
* System level configuration folder(e.g. ``/etc/xdg/<vendor-name>/<application-name>/setting.json`` in Linux)

``configdir.Config`` provides some convenient methods(``ReadFile``, ``WriteFile`` and so on).

.. code-block:: go

   var config Config

   configDirs := configdir.New("vendor-name", "application-name")
   // optional: local path has the highest priority
   configDirs.LocalPath, _ = filepath.Abs(".")
   folder := configDirs.QueryFolderContainsFile("setting.json")
   if folder != nil {
       data, _ := folder.ReadFile("setting.json")
       json.Unmarshal(data, &config)
   } else {
       config = DefaultConfig
   }

Write Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When storing configuration, get configuration folder by using ``configdir.ConfigDir.QueryFolders()`` method.

.. code-block:: go

   configDirs := configdir.New("vendor-name", "application-name")

   var config Config
   data, _ := json.Marshal(&config)

   // Stores to local folder
   folders := configDirs.QueryFolders(configdir.Local)
   folders[0].WriteFile("setting.json", data)

   // Stores to user folder
   folders = configDirs.QueryFolders(configdir.Global)
   folders[0].WriteFile("setting.json", data)

   // Stores to system folder
   folders = configDirs.QueryFolders(configdir.System)
   folders[0].WriteFile("setting.json", data)

Getting Cache Folder
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is similar to the above example, but returns cache folder.

.. code-block:: go

   configDirs := configdir.New("vendor-name", "application-name")
   cache := configDirs.QueryCacheFolder()

   resp, err := http.Get("http://examples.com/sdk.zip")
   if err != nil {
       log.Fatal(err)
   }
   defer resp.Body.Close()
   body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)

   cache.WriteFile("sdk.zip", body)

Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	Path string
	Type ConfigType
}

Config represents each folder

func (Config) Create

func (c Config) Create(fileName string) (*os.File, error)

func (Config) CreateParentDir

func (c Config) CreateParentDir(fileName string) error

CreateParentDir creates the parent directory of fileName inside c. fileName is a relative path inside c, containing zero or more path separators.

func (Config) Exists

func (c Config) Exists(fileName string) bool

func (Config) MkdirAll

func (c Config) MkdirAll() error

func (Config) Open

func (c Config) Open(fileName string) (*os.File, error)

func (Config) ReadFile

func (c Config) ReadFile(fileName string) ([]byte, error)

func (Config) WriteFile

func (c Config) WriteFile(fileName string, data []byte) error

type ConfigDir

type ConfigDir struct {
	VendorName      string
	ApplicationName string
	LocalPath       string
}

ConfigDir keeps setting for querying folders.

Example

Sample for reading configuration

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"github.com/shibukawa/configdir"
	"path/filepath"
)

type Config struct {
	UserName string `json:"user-name"`
}

var DefaultConfig = Config{
	UserName: "baron",
}

func main() {

	var config Config

	configDirs := configdir.New("vendor-name", "application-name")
	// optional: local path has the highest priority
	configDirs.LocalPath, _ = filepath.Abs(".")
	folder := configDirs.QueryFolderContainsFile("setting.json")
	if folder != nil {
		data, _ := folder.ReadFile("setting.json")
		json.Unmarshal(data, &config)
	} else {
		config = DefaultConfig
	}
}
Output:

func New

func New(vendorName, applicationName string) ConfigDir

func (ConfigDir) QueryCacheFolder

func (c ConfigDir) QueryCacheFolder() *Config
Example

Sample for getting cache folder

package main

import (
	"github.com/shibukawa/configdir"
	"io/ioutil"
	"log"
	"net/http"
)

func main() {
	configDirs := configdir.New("vendor-name", "application-name")
	cache := configDirs.QueryCacheFolder()

	resp, err := http.Get("http://examples.com/sdk.zip")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer resp.Body.Close()
	body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)

	cache.WriteFile("sdk.zip", body)
}
Output:

func (ConfigDir) QueryFolderContainsFile

func (c ConfigDir) QueryFolderContainsFile(fileName string) *Config

func (ConfigDir) QueryFolders

func (c ConfigDir) QueryFolders(configType ConfigType) []*Config
Example

Sample for reading configuration

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"github.com/shibukawa/configdir"
)

type Config struct {
	UserName string `json:"user-name"`
}

func main() {
	configDirs := configdir.New("vendor-name", "application-name")

	var config Config
	data, _ := json.Marshal(&config)

	// Stores to local folder
	folders := configDirs.QueryFolders(configdir.Local)
	folders[0].WriteFile("setting.json", data)

	// Stores to user folder
	folders = configDirs.QueryFolders(configdir.Global)
	folders[0].WriteFile("setting.json", data)

	// Stores to system folder
	folders = configDirs.QueryFolders(configdir.System)
	folders[0].WriteFile("setting.json", data)
}
Output:

type ConfigType

type ConfigType int
const (
	System ConfigType = iota
	Global
	All
	Existing
	Local
	Cache
)
