File::H...::Cocoa(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for File::HomeDir::Darwin::Cocoa(3) — the header squishes it all cute into File::H...::Cocoa(3), and it’s part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation set. The official one-liner is: File::HomeDir::Darwin::Cocoa - Find your home and other directories on Darwin (OS X) 🍓

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This module gives you Darwin-specific implementations for determining the common user directories, using the Cocoa API through Mac::SystemDirectory. In normal usage, this module will always be used via File::HomeDir — that’s the vibe, iykyk.

Theoretically, this should return the same paths as both of the other Darwin drivers. Theoretically. 👀

Because this module requires Mac::SystemDirectory, if the module is not installed, File::HomeDir will fall back to File::HomeDir::Darwin. Slay for graceful fallback behavior, honestly.

use File::HomeDir;

# Find directories for the current user

$docs    = File::HomeDir->my_documents; # /Users/mylogin/Documents
$music   = File::HomeDir->my_music;     # /Users/mylogin/Music
