| Summary | 0000140: [RFE] Comply with XDG configuration | ||||
| Description | Instead of using ~/.qet, use insteand XDG standard directories => https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html elements => $XDG_DATA_HOME ($HOME/.local/share) titleblocks => idem elements_cache.sqlite => $XDG_CACHE_HOME ($HOME/.cache) qelectrotech.conf => $XDG_CONFIG_HOME ($HOME/.config) | ||||

We use the native format for QSettings : http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsettings.html#details the configuration files are stored in : For GNU/Linux distributions: $HOME/.config/QElectroTech/QElectroTech.conf For Mac OS X: $HOME/Library/Preferences/QElectroTech/QElectroTech.plist For Windows, in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QElectroTech\ |

Done by GitHub #327 (merged 2025-01-24), in QElectroTech 0.100. QET now uses the standard folders instead of ~/.qet: - settings under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/QElectroTech (by default ~/.config/QElectroTech) - your elements, title blocks and log files in $XDG_DATA_HOME/QElectroTech/QElectroTech (by default ~/.local/share/QElectroTech/QElectroTech) https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectrotech-source-mirror/pull/327 One difference from your list: elements_cache.sqlite is kept in the data folder, not in $XDG_CACHE_HOME. If you want that moved too, add a note here. |
