Missing store and work directory #8

Closed woopstar closed 9 years ago

woopstar commented 9 years ago

The store directory and work directory should be created if missing instead of crashing program with exception.

IMHO, these values are first class directories i.e. not basedir where we can assume to just create them. Users can chose to put them no different volumes i.e. local, SAN, NFS, etc for different purposes thus I've decided to keep them explicitly required.

I would like to hear your thoughts on why you think we should be creating them automatically though.
