Patty

Cross platform system PATH manager.

Introduction

Patty enables you to manage and modify the system PATH variable on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

It's particularly useful for CLI apps that need to be accessible in PATH.

Patty achieves this by modifying the registry in Windows and adjusting RC files in Linux/macOS, such as zshrc or bashrc.

Install

cargo add patty

Usage

use patty::{PathManager, Options, home_dir};

fn main() {
    let mut patty = patty::Patty::new(Options::default());
    let bin_path = home_dir().unwrap().join("bin");
    let new_path = patty.add(bin_path).unwrap();
    println!("PATH = {:?}", new_path);
}
