Move some runtime config files from openhabhome to user.home #322

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
All runtime config files are currently saved to <openhabhome> or 
<openhabhome>/etc. Since this directorys are part of the openhab installation 
they are most often removed while migration to new openHAB release.

The runtime config files should better saved to a "stable" directory outside 
the openhab installation directory. Proposed parent directory is:

~/.openHAB/

The following files are known to be moved:

# dropbox-io-support
  * authfile.dbox
  * deltacursor.dbox
  * dropbox-entries.dbox

# Twitter-Action
  * twitter.token
  * twitter.pin

# google-latitude-binding
  * latitude.token
  * latitude.pin

# <openhabhome>/webapps/static
  * uuid
  * version

# to be discussed:
* /etc/db4o
* /etc/rrd4j
* /configurations (as a whole)
* /sounds (as a whole)

You're right - these files have to be seperated from the runtime. On my 
installation, I simply moved configurations and etc to /home/openhab/ and the 
runtime is a linked directory /home/openhab/runtime -> 
/home/openhab/runtime-1.3.

The downside of this is changes/enhancements to f.e. the log-config or 
openhab.cfg are to be inserted manually (diff'ed).

Concering /sounds - I'd also like webapps/images to be considerd similar.
