set_env

This crate allows you to permanently set environment variables

Based on env_perm

Examples

rust // Check if DUMMY is set, if not set it to 1 // export DUMMY=1 set_env::check_or_set("DUMMY", 1).expect("Failed to find or set DUMMY"); // Append $HOME/some/cool/bin to $PATH // export PATH= "$HOME/some/cool/bin:$PATH"Cancel changes set_env::append("PATH", "$HOME/some/cool/bin").expect("Couldn't find PATH"); // Sets a variable without checking if it exists. // Note you need to use a raw string literal to include "" // export DUMMY="/something" set_env::set("DUMMY", r#""/something""#).expect("Failed to set DUMMY");

Usage

This crate simply appends to your .bash_profile or .bash_login or .profile in that order. It will create a .bash_profile file if none of the above are found in your home directory. ie. /Users/me/.bash_profile.

On windows, this crate will modify the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment registry items
