Condition on the destination path depending on the OS?

[sneko]

Hi,

The Visual Studio Code settings.json is set in total different locations depending on the OS as mentioned in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44575312/change-vscode-user-settings-location

I saw @SuperCuber you mentioned some conditioning possible but how to do it to check the OS platform, and adjust the destination path?

Any example would be appreciated :)

Thank you,

Take my dotfiles as an example - my global.toml and this is the file I include on my windows machine windows.toml

There's no automatic conditioning, I just add includes = [".dotter/include/windows.toml"] in my local.toml

[sneko]

Since local.toml is .gitignored I guess you mean that people cloning my dotfiles repo should modify it to include their own OS file?

That's sad there is no way to automate this hmmmm

There's also conditional files so you could use something like if = "(eq dotter.os 'windows')"
