golang-directories

Golang implementation of https://lib.rs/crates/directories

Per-user/per-application WRITEABLE paths for cross-platform idiomatic locations.

Currently supports Linux, Windows and mac. Future additions: iOS,Android, plan9?

All functions have the same signature :

function user.Fonts() (string, error)

and return an Error if they cannot satisfy the request on a particular platform (e.g. Windows doesn't have a per-user font directory)

You need to set your project details before using the functions in golang-directories/project by calling project.SetProjectName
