Platform-specific application home and cache directories for KMP.

• Path Mapping
• Setup
• Usage
  • App data directory
  • App cache directory

Path Mapping

Platform	Cache Directory	Data Directory
Android	context.cacheDir	ApplicationInfo.dataDir
IOS/IpadOs/WatchOs	NSCachesDirectory	NSApplicationSupportDirectory
Mac (native/jvm/node)	~/Library/Caches/<app-id>	~/Library/Application Support/<app-id>
Windows (jvm/node)	C:\Users\<user>\AppData/Caches/<app-id>	C:\Users\<user>\AppData/<app-id>>
Linux (jvm/node)	~/.cache/<app-id>	~/local/share/<app-id>

Setup

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
  implementation("me.sujanpoudel.multiplatform.utils:multiplatform-paths:0.2.2")
}

Usage

App data directory

import me.sujanpoudel.utils.paths.appDataDirectory

val packageName = "example.com.app"

val dataDirectory = appDataDirectory(packageName)

This will return ApplicationInfo.dataDir on android, NSApplicationSupportDirectory on IOS and equivalent platform specific data directory on other platforms.

App cache directory

import me.sujanpoudel.utils.paths.appCacheDirectory

val packageName = "example.com.app"

val dataDirectory = appCacheDirectory(packageName)

This will return Context.cacheDir on android, NSCachesDirectory on IOS and equivalent platform specific caches directory on other platforms

Platform Identifier

Setup

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
  implementation("me.sujanpoudel.multiplatform.utils:platform-identifier:0.2.2")
}

Usage

Get current running platform info

import me.sujanpoudel.multiplatform.utils.platformIdentifier.platform

val currentPlatform = platform()

Possible return values

It returns Platform sealed class:

sealed class Platform {
  sealed class JS : Platform() {
    data class Node(val os: OS, val nodeVersion: String, val v8Version: String) : JS()
    data class Browser(val userAgent: String) : JS()
  }

  sealed class OS(open val arch: Arch) : Platform() {
    data class Unknown(override val arch: Arch, val version: String) : OS(arch)
    data class MacOs(override val arch: Arch, val version: String) : OS(arch)
    data class IOS(override val arch: Arch, val version: String, val isSimulator: Boolean) : OS(arch)
    data class WatchOs(override val arch: Arch, val version: String, val isSimulator: Boolean) : OS(arch)
    data class TvOs(override val arch: Arch, val version: String, val isSimulator: Boolean) : OS(arch)
    data class Android(override val arch: Arch, val buildNumber: Int, val androidVersion: String, val isWatch: Boolean, val isTv: Boolean) : OS(arch)

    data class Linux(override val arch: Arch, val version: String) : OS(arch)
    data class Windows(override val arch: Arch, val version: String) : OS(arch)
  }
}

where,Arch is an enum representing CPU architecture

enum class Arch {
  UNKNOWN,
  X64,
  X86,
  ARM_X64,
  ARM_X32,
}

Context Provider

Setup

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
  implementation("me.sujanpoudel.multiplatform.utils:context-provider:0.2.2")
}

Usage

Get Android Context

import me.sujanpoudel.utils.contextProvider.applicationContext
import android.content.Context

val context: Context = applicationContext
