This patch add some options for the location of user configuration directories.
As before, use
$HOME/.colima
if it already exists.Otherwise, if the environment variable
XDG_CONFIG_HOME
is set, the Colima configuration directory should be (shell syntax)"${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}"/colima
.Likewise, if
XDG_CACHE_HOME
is set, then the cache should be in"${XDG_CACHE_HOME}"/colima
.If these variables are not set, use the Go standard lib
os.UserConfigDir()
for the configuration:macOS
$HOME/Library/Application Support/colimaLinux
$HOME/.config/colimaWindows
%AppData%\colimaand uses
os.UserCacheDir()
for the cache:macOS
$HOME/Library/Caches/colimaLinux
$HOME/.cache/colimaWindows
%LocalAppData%\colimaThis patch addresses #483, and possibly helps #724.
