🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, this is the dtappintegrate(user cmd) manual page β€” aka the docs for dtappintegrate, the utility that integrates applications into the XCDE. that’s literally its whole thing, and it slays. 🫢

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

dtappintegrate [-s application_root] [-t target_path] [-l locale] [-u] [-?]

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

The dtappintegrate utility integrates applications into XCDE. Application installation scripts should invoke dtappintegrate as the last step before exiting. and bestie, this part is serious: the dtappintegrate utility must be invoked with root user authority. yes, literally root β€” no cap. πŸ‘‘

When dtappintegrate is invoked with no target_path specified, it creates symbolic links to the application’s XCDE configuration files under these default XCDE system locations:

  • /nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/types/&<locale> β€” contains symbolic links to the application action and datatype files πŸ¦‹
  • /nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/appmanager/&<locale> β€” contains symbolic links to the application group subdirectory πŸ’…
  • /nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/help/&<locale> β€” contains symbolic links to the application help files 🌸
  • /nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/icons/&<locale> β€” contains symbolic links to the application icons ✨

πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

the following options are available, bestie:

  • -s application_root β€” integrate the application files that are located under application_root. The application_root is the top directory under which all of an application’s files are installed. The dtappintegrate utility looks for application XCDE configuration files in the following subdirectories, with all C locale subdirectories containing the application’s default XCDE configuration files:
    • &<application_root>/dt/appconfig/types/&<locale> β€” contains application action and datatype files
    • &<application_root>/dt/appconfig/appmanager/&<locale> β€” contains application group files
    • &<application_root>/dt/appconfig/icons/&<locale> β€” contains application icons
    • &<application_root>/dt/appconfig/help/&<locale> β€” contains application help files
  • -t target_path β€” link the application XCDE configuration files to target_path rather than to the default XCDE system locations. πŸŽ€
  • -l locale β€” integrate only the files found in the locale subdirectories. If this option is not specified, all of the application’s XCDE configuration files are integrated. 🌈
  • -u β€” destroy the symbolic links previously created by dtappintegrate. If -l is specified with the -u option, only the symbolic links to the XCDE configuration files in the specified locale subdirectories are destroyed. πŸ’€
  • -? β€” write a help message to standard output that describes the command syntax of dtappintegrate and exit. πŸ™ˆ
