Function tauri::api::path::resolve_path

pub fn resolve_path<P: AsRef<Path>>(
    config: &Config, 
    package_info: &PackageInfo, 
    env: &Env, 
    path: P, 
    dir: Option<BaseDirectory>
) -> Result<PathBuf>

Resolves the path with the optional base directory.

This is a low level API. If the application has been built, prefer the path resolver API.

Examples

Before initializing the application

use tauri::{api::path::{BaseDirectory, resolve_path}, Env};
// on an actual app, remove the string argument
let context = tauri::generate_context!("test/fixture/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json");
let path = resolve_path(
  context.config(),
  context.package_info(),
  &Env::default(),
  "db/tauri.sqlite",
  Some(BaseDirectory::App))
.expect("failed to resolve path");
assert_eq!(path.to_str().unwrap(), "/home/${whoami}/.config/com.tauri.app/db/tauri.sqlite");

tauri::Builder::default().run(context).expect("error while running tauri application");

With an initialized app

use tauri::{api::path::{BaseDirectory, resolve_path}, Manager};
tauri::Builder::default()
  .setup(|app| {
    let path = resolve_path(
      &app.config(),
      app.package_info(),
      &app.env(),
      "path/to/something",
      Some(BaseDirectory::Config)
    )?;
    assert_eq!(path.to_str().unwrap(), "/home/${whoami}/.config/path/to/something");
    Ok(())
  });
