Python module for determining platform-specific dirs

appdirs is small Python module for determining appropriate platform-specific dirs, e.g. a “user data dir”. Those are typically platform-specific, for instance, if running on Mac OS X, you should use

~/Library/Application Support/

On Linux and other Unices the dir, according to the XDG spec, is

~/.local/share/

appdirs will help the application to choose an appropriate

  • user data dir user_data_dir
  • user config dir user_config_dir
  • user cache dir user_cache_dir
  • site data dir site_data_dir
  • site config dir site_config_dir
  • user log dir user_log_dir
