=head1 NAME

Config::Find::Where - Find locations in the native OS fashion

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Config::Find::Where;

  my $temp_dir=Config::Find::Where->temp_dir( name => 'my_app',
                                              scope => 'process',
                                              create => 1 );

  my $path=Config::Find::Where->bin_dir( scope => 'app' );
  system $path."/app_helper.exe";


=head1 ABSTRACT

Config::Find searchs for locations using OS dependant heuristics.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

After releasing L<Config::Find> I found much of its code could be
reused to also find other interesting things like temporary
directories, the script location, etc.

This module adds a public API to all the hiden functionallity.

=head2 OPTIONS

As in L<Config::Find>, all the methods in this package accept a common
set of options:

=over 4

=item name => C<name> or C<name/more/names>

specifies the primary application name used to generate the location
paths or to search for them.

=item scope => C<user>, C<global>, C<app> or C<process>

-

=item create => 1

creates any unexistant directory in the path returned

=back

=head2 METHODS

All the methods in this package are class methods (you don't need an
object to call them).

=over 4

=item $path=Config::Find::Where-E<gt>temp_dir(%opts)

returns a directory path inside a system temporary location. i.e.:

  Config::Find::Where->temp_dir( name =>'hello/world',
                                 scope => 'process',
                                 create => 1 )

returns something similar to

  '/tmp/jacks/hello/974/world/'

on unix like systems and

  'C:\Windows\Temp\jacks\hello\974\world'

on some Windows ones ('jacks' is supposed to be the current user name
and '974' the process number).

The default scope for this method is C<user>.


=item $path=Config::Find::Where-E<gt>bin_dir(%opts)

returns a place to find/place binary files. The default scope for this
method is C<app>.

i.e.

 Config::Find::Where->bin_dir()

returns the path to the directory where binaries are located.

Note that this directory is not necessarily the same as the one
containing the running script. See documentation for C<script_dir>
below.

=item $path=Config::Find::Where-E<gt>var_dir(%opts)

returns a place to find/place working files.

The default scope for this method is C<app>.

=item $path = Config::Find::Where-E<gt>lib_dir(%opts)

returns a place to find/place library files.

The default scope for this method is C<app>.

For instance:

  use lib => Config::Find::Where->lib_dir;

=item $path = Config::Find::Where-E<gt>application_dir(%opts)

returns the application root directory.

=item $name=Config::Find::Where-E<gt>script_name()

returns the name of the running script without any path information

=item $path=Config::Find::Where-E<gt>script_full_path()

returns the name of the script as the absolute full path to it.

=item $path=Config::Find::Where-E<gt>script_dir()

returns the name of the directory containing the current script

=item Config::Find::Where-E<gt>create_dir($dir)

creates directory C<$dir> and any needed parents

=item Config::Find::Where-E<gt>create_parent_dir($file)

recursively creates all the non existant parent dirs for C<$file>.

=back


=head2 EXPORT

None, this module has an OO interface.


=head1 BUGS

Some Win32 OSs are not completely implemented and default to inferior
modes, but hey, this is a work in progress!!!

Contributions, bug reports, feedback and any kind of comments are
welcome.
