Hi list In the continuing story of my pet project "Blinder" to control my blinds from a Bering box:
I'm getting very close now. :) So close that I hope to wake up to an artificial sunrise before the weekend... So close, in fact, that I'm beginning to start thinking about making a .lrp out of it. But before I do that I would like to get some advice on where the different parts belong in the filesystem. As it is most of the scripts/C-executables live in a subdir to /usr/local/bin. One thing is that I would like to be FHS-compliant, but mainly I want my stuff to be in the 'correct' places wrt LEAF/Bering. And as I have absolutely no experience in these matters, I'm clueless both wrt the FHS *and* common programming practise. :-P The parts involved are: Scripts (The 'main' constituents. Called by cron as needed, plus various support functions.) C-executables (handle actual I/O to the parport) Data files Config files And ones that are more or less self evident (wrt to placement in the FS): Temp files Cgi-scripts html (well, actually almost everything is cgi, and I think I'm gonna kill the last of the html too) Questions involve (but aren't limited to ;) - Where do the 'programs' go? (this is my primary concern) - Am I 'allowed' (or even encouraged) to put stuff in /etc ? - Where does one keep app-specific data? - Where does the stuff definitely *not* go? You get the point... I'm pretty unsure of the above, as this my first stab at building anything this complex. I wish I'd asked about this before, so I wouldn't have to move stuff around, but fortunately I've been smart enough to put most of the paths in variables, so at least they're easily changed... 8-) The actual building of the .lrp, seems pretty well covered in the documentation, so this is more about getting my stuff straight before that bit :) Feedback, pointers etc welcome and appreciated! greets, and TIA Jon Clausen _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
