Summary | 0003452: Add an option to select a Doomseeker environment path on startup | ||||||||
Description | It griefs me a little to copy & move config directories (and other Doomseeker directories) around on the file system when trying to debug issues, such as 0003411 or maybe even 0003396. If there was a command line option (such as --configdir) or an environment variable to manipulate the directory Doomseeker looks for its config (doomseeker.ini) and possibly .cache & .local/share, it'd make my life a bit easier. :) | ||||||||
Steps To Reproduce | From the command line, pass the --help flag to Doomseeker executable:$ doomseeker --help Notice there's no option available for the described suggestion. | ||||||||

If anyone has a better solution that doesn't require adding more features to Doomseeker, I'm all up for it. But there's already a --datadir option for IP2C data and plugins, mind you. |

While not exactly what you're looking for --portable could work with some limitations. |

I have added a --basedir argument for that. I chose not to use --configdir because the "config" dir is only one of the directories that the Doomseeker uses. The other 2 are the cache and the managed files. --basedir configures the prefix path for all 3 of them. 'https://bitbucket.org/Doomseeker/doomseeker/commits/d47e2cfba63fb5e83d9e79170832d2e5e66dab73 [^]' Now `--basedir <path/to/doomseeker.exe/dir>` and `--portable` do nearly the same aside from suggesting the user a different directory to save the unmanaged files: "My Documents" in non-portable mode, and the exe dir in the portable mode. Despite the functional similarity, `--portable` should not be removed for compatibility reasons and because `--portable` describes a different intent than `--basedir`. |

Beta package for Windows available at the beta auto-update channel and at: 'https://devbuilds.drdteam.org/doomseeker/doomseeker-1.3.3~beta-230105-1140_windows.zip [^]' Please test `--basedir <somewhere>` and also in a combination `--portable --basedir <somewhere>`. |
