Seems to be more + typical. +- [issue 9] Make ``unicode`` work on py3k. + +appdirs 1.1.0 +------------- + +- [issue 4] Add ``AppDirs.user_log_dir``. +- [Unix, issue 2, issue 7] appdirs now conforms to `XDG base directory spec + <http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html>`_. +- [Mac, issue 5] Fix ``site_data_dir()`` on Mac. +- [Mac] Drop use of 'Carbon' module in favour of hardcoded paths; supports + Python3 now. +- [Windows] Append "Cache" to ``user_cache_dir`` on Windows by default. Use + ``opinion=False`` option to disable this. +- Add ``appdirs.AppDirs`` convenience class. Usage: + + >>> dirs = AppDirs("SuperApp", "Acme", version="1.0") + >>> dirs.user_data_dir + '/Users/trentm/Library/Application Support/SuperApp/1.0' + +- [Windows] Cherry-pick Komodo's change to downgrade paths to the Windows short + paths if there are high bit chars. +- [Linux] Change default ``user_cache_dir()`` on Linux to be singular, e.g. + "~/.superapp/cache". +- [Windows] Add ``roaming`` option to ``user_data_dir()`` (for use on Windows only) + and change the default ``user_data_dir`` behaviour to use a *non*-roaming + profile dir (``CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA`` instead of ``CSIDL_APPDATA``). Why? Because + a large roaming profile can cause login speed issues. The "only syncs on + logout" behaviour can cause surprises in appdata info. + + +appdirs 1.0.1 (never released) +------------------------------ + +Started this changelog 27 July 2010. Before that this module originated in the +`Komodo <http://www.activestate.com/komodo>`_ product as ``applib.py`` and then +as `applib/location.py +<http://github.com/ActiveState/applib/blob/master/applib/location.py>`_ (used by +`PyPM <http://code.activestate.com/pypm/>`_ in `ActivePython +<http://www.activestate.com/activepython>`_). This is basically a fork of +applib.py 1.0.1 and applib/location.py 1.0.1. + |
