Fixed pathing for OSes (GPG, TMP, Home, etc. for Windows/Linux/Unix) #104

Closed F9Alejandro closed 5 years ago

F9Alejandro commented 6 years ago

Updated single commit to better track/organize for pulling.

libpius/path.py handles pathing of the local machine and determines what to use or do based on the host OS.

set_tmpdir() is hard coded for Mac (Darwin) and linux as $TMPDIR doesn't respond correctly or is not an env variable in varying versions.

(Note: MacOS uses mktemp which is not able to be accessed by anyone except the user, some versions of linux use $TMP/$TEMP/$TMPDIR/$TEMPDIR or just doesn't exist at all) includes root

Changes made has been tested on Mac, Linux, and Windows. pius.spec needs to have cross compatibility for other OSes, or multi stage depending on the platform run a different set of instructions.

I see I hadn't been very clear on some of my comments before - my apologies. Please don't hesitate to ask for further clarification on anything else. Thanks again for improving the experience for non-Linux users!

Remember that windows does not use the same structure tree as Linux there is no such thing as /usr in windows. If you want it removed then you can freely do so give me a few minutes and I will add you as a maintainer/contributor on my git repo

In libpius/path.py:

No distribution installs software into /usr/local - that's now how FSB works. /usr/local is where user-compiled software goes, which is not where we'd expect security-sensitive software like GPG to be on a Linux machine. We should not look in /usr/local by default on windows unless to user asks us to. Remember the user can do so with a config file by adding gpg-path=/usr/local/bin/gpg to their .piusrc. That's why we have a config file for anyone with a non-standard configuration. —

Latest commit should fix the last of your major concerns, push come to shove i could make it more narrowed down to just Cellar (Homebrew) and MacGPG2 (GPG Tools suite)

F9Alejandro commented 6 years ago

Resolved the issue about order of pius home checks in turn also fixing a hard coded path that should be checked if it is a dir or not.
