# What's this?
|
||
|
|
Confwhich is an attempt to make working with `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` and `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` easier by providing some nice utility functions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Useage
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
Usage: confwhich [OPTIONS] <SEARCH>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Arguments:
|
||
|
|
<SEARCH> The config prefix to search for
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Options:
|
||
|
|
--skip-home Skip directories in XDG_CONFIG_DIRS that start with the home directory
|
||
|
|
-a, --all Print all matches in XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, not just the first
|
||
|
|
--from-process <FROM_PROCESS> Read the environment from a process by pid instead of regular environment [default: -1]
|
||
|
|
--show-tilde Output a tilde for HOME directory
|
||
|
|
-h, --help Print help
|
||
|
|
-V, --version Print version
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Confwhich allows reading `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` and `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` from a running process by provided process id, assuming the `confwhich`process is elevated enough to read the environ file at `/proc/<pid>/environ`. Potential useage might be e.g. `confwhich --show-tilde --from-process $(pgrep alacritty | head -n 1) alacritty` which will return `~/.config/alacritty.toml` on my system.

# Installing
|
||
|
|
Any system that can build rust applications can have confwhich.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
git clone https://git.grimmauld.de/Grimmauld/confwhich.git
|
||
|
|
cd confwhich
|
||
|
|
cargo build --release
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alternatively, this project supports nix tooling. The included flake provides a module installing `confwhich` to system packages, but also a default package for `nix run git+https://git.grimmauld.de/Grimmauld/confwhich`.
