//! This crate helps with cache directories creation in a system-agnostic way. //! //! The [`CacheDirConfig`] type helps define the desired location(s) where attempts to create //! the cache directory should be made and also helps with the creation itself. //! //! The [`CacheDir`] type holds the path to the created cache directory, obtained with the help of //! [`CacheDirConfig`], if it succeeded to create the directory. //! //! [`CacheDir`] derefs to [`PathBuf`] and implements most of the same traits that [`PathBuf`] does. //! //! Code examples: //! //! - [`Creating an application cache with app_cache_path(custom path)`] //! //! - [`Creating an application cache without app_cache_path`] //! //! - [`Creating a user cache(the default)`] //! //! - [`Creating a system-wide cache`] //! //! - [`Creating a tmp cache`] //! //! - [`Creating a memory cache`] //! //! - [`Using all default fallbacks(without creating an application cache)`] //! //! - [`Using all default fallbacks(with automatic creation of the application cache)`] //! //!
