Path setting after installation. What are you guys doing
Hello everyone. It's time for today's trouble consultation.
Preface

Actually, I recently released version 0.17.0 (pre), and I installed the installer for the first time there. I'm building using NSIS.
However, as of now, the path to the executable file is not added to the environment variable Path ** after installation **. Please pass the path manually.
Originally, there was something like messing around with the environment variable Path ** I'm not scared **, but there seems to be a problem when trying to realize it with NSIS (this area). However, it's a pain to pass the pass by myself, so I'd like to add it in the next edition.
So how do you add/remove paths to the environment variable Path in the installer? That is today's question.
I searched a lot, but I couldn't find a good idea. For the time being, I was looking for it based on the following criteria.
- Simple source code
- Easy-to-use features
- Convenient license
I couldn't find anything that would satisfy all of them. Something that doesn't have a license, GPL, [^ gpl].
[^ gpl]: Just in case, I'm not saying that the GPL is bad ... It's hard to hire because I'm MIT.
Conclusion
There, young husband!
I created a simple program. Have a look at this.
- https://github.com/Kray-G/addpath
this is...
- Simple source code ... ** Realized as a single function tool with just one file **.
- Easy-to-use functions ... Since it is a single-function tool, ** simple to use **.
- Convenient license ... ** The MIT **! (I set it that way)
but...
Since this program changes the system environment, I would like to have a lot of people check the source code ** and fix any problems **. I've checked it including a simple test code.
So, I'd be happy if various people could see the source code. I would be very grateful if I found a problem (although I can't do anything more than that).
Or please let me know if there is a better solution to this problem (add/remove paths).
see you.
P.S. If you like this (https://github.com/Kray-G/addpath) itself, please ★. waiting!
