The Harbour FAQ has several detailed answers about where to ship (sic) read-only data in an RPM and where to store data at run-time: "Can I install files in /home/nemo?” https://harbour.jolla.com/faq#2.4.0 "I have a huge amount of data files which the user can edit/change during run time. What can I do?” https://harbour.jolla.com/faq#2.5.0 "Why can't I set a folder or a file under /usr/share/<HARBOUR_APP_NAME>/ to be world writeable?” https://harbour.jolla.com/faq#2.12.0 “Where should I store application configuration, application data and cache files?” https://harbour.jolla.com/faq#2.13.0 “$XDG_CONFIG_HOME, $XDG_DATA_HOME and $XDG_CACHE_HOME are not set in the device environment. So which path should I use?” https://harbour.jolla.com/faq#2.14.0 For implementing XDG basedir, there’s a library, plus two README files (one for when you use Qt and one for when you use GLib, as both already implement XDG basedir): https://github.com/sailfish-sdk/xdg-helper HTH :) Thomas _______________________________________________ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
