The "dnoegel/php-xdg-base-dir" is a Composer package that provides a PHP implementation of the XDG Base Directory specification. It's used primarily in Linux environments to define standard directories for various types of files, such as configuration files, cache files, and data files. This enables easier interoperability and file location consistency across different applications and scripts.
To use "dnoegel/php-xdg-base-dir", you need to have Composer installed on your system. Once you have Composer, you can add the package to your project using the following command in your terminal:
$ composer require dnoegel/php-xdg-base-dir
After it's installed, you can use the package in your PHP scripts. Here is a code usage example:
$xdg = new \XdgBaseDir\Xdg();
echo $xdg->getHomeDir();
echo $xdg->getHomeConfigDir();
echo $xdg->getHomeDataDir();
echo $xdg->getHomeCacheDir();
echo $xdg->getRuntimeDir();
print_r($xdg->getDataDirs()); // returns array
print_r($xdg->getConfigDirs()); // returns array
In this example, we first instantiate the XdgBaseDir\Xdg class. Then, we use various methods provided by the class to get information about different system directories according to the XDG specification.
