Support platform-defined standard directories by soc · Pull Request #5183 · rust-lang/cargo
spacekookie added a commit to spacekookie/cargo that referenced this pull request
This commit is a continuation and adaptation of rust-lang#5183, which aimed to make cargo no longer reliant on the `$HOME/.cargo` directory in user's home's, and instead uses the `directories` crate to get platform-defined standard directories for data, caches, and configs. The priority of paths cargo will check is as follows: 1. Use `$CARGO_HOME`, if it is set 2. Use `$CARGO_CACHE_DIR`, `$CARGO_CONFIG_DIR`, etc, if they are set 3. If no environment variables are set, and `$HOME/.cargo` is present, use that 4. Finally, use the platform-default directory paths
