Going forward for new installations, config and data files will be stored at the platform default paths, as defined by env-paths.
For backwards compatibility, if the
~/.waveterm
orWAVETERM_HOME
directory exists and contains valid data, it will be used. If this check fails, thenWAVETERM_DATA_HOME
andWAVETERM_CONFIG_HOME
will be used. If these are not defined, thenXDG_DATA_HOME
andXDG_CONFIG_HOME
will be used. Finally, if none of these are defined, the env-paths defaults will be used.As with the existing app, dev instances will write to
waveterm-dev
directories, while all others will write towaveterm
.
