[Feature Request] Support the SS1 Unified Credentials File about screeps3d HOT 9 CLOSED

Next time, i'll read the spec before asking questions then 😆

from screeps3d.

@ags131 would you expect to be able to point to a location to find this credential file, or should the user dump it into a specific directory, or how is the usage?

Also, random links for yml parsing

from screeps3d.

Hence the spec, it has a list of locations to find the file in ;)

from screeps3d.

• Env Variable ($SCREEPS_CONFIG)
• Project Root (Optional) - (project/.screeps.yaml)
• Current Working Directory - (./.screeps.yaml)
• XDG Config Directory - ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME/screeps/config.yaml)
• XDG Config Default Directory - ($HOME/.config/screeps/config.yaml)
• APPDATA (Windows Only) - (%APPDATA%/screeps/config.yaml)
• Home Directory - (~/.screeps.yaml)

This Unity Asset mentioned in the last comment

seems to have all the bells and whistles we need :)

@ags131 i'm not sure what $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is, is that something linux specific? or an environmentvariable, we gotta remember MAC aswell 🤔

from screeps3d.

$XDG_CONFIG_HOME is an environment variable in linux, although I think it exists for some mac setups too
All variables prefixed with $ like $HOME are environment variables, its the linux/mac way of denoting them. (While windows does %APPDATA%)

Some more reference data:

Can probably use this to get environment variables, would have to test it I guess 🤔

<@UK28UEQ22> Leave the $ out when getting the variables, the $ is linux/bash specific syntax https://github.com/thmsndk/Screeps3D/blob/develop/Assets/Scripts/Screeps_API/ServerListProviders/SS3UCFServerListProvider.cs#L135-L140
