shishi_cfg_default_userdirectory(3)

✨ NAME ✨

shishi_cfg_default_userdirectory — okay bestie, this is the API function that tells you where your Shishi user directory lives 💖

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <shishi.h>

const char * shishi_cfg_default_userdirectory(Shishi * handle);

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• Shishi * handle — the Shishi library handle you got from shishi_init(), no cap 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So the default user directory — the one Shishi peeks at for your ticket cache and, like, other stuff too — is normally computed by gluing the fixed string "/.shishi" onto whatever is chillin' in the environment variable $HOME. Iconic, honestly.

But wait, the plot twist: this hard coded directory, i.e. "$HOME/.shishi/", can be replaced by whatever complete path you've stashed in the environment variable $SHISHI_HOME. Slay. 💅

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

It returns the user's directory name — the place where the Shishi library goes looking for configuration files, ticket caches, etcetera. That's it, that's the vibe ✨
