Trying to learn how to package a software
Hi, all.
I'm trying to learn how to package a software.
I'm using Pivot (http://www.pivotlog.net/) as a case study.
It is written in PHP (maybe a bad choice for me because
i'm not a PHP programmer) and it has a subdirectory named db
where it stores some data. The relevant part is:
|-- pivot
| |-- db
| | |-- refkeys
| | |-- rsscache
| | |-- search
| | |-- standard-00000
| | |-- tagdata
| | |-- tbkeys
| | `-- users
I tried to put db in /var/cache/pivot-weblog/db/ and the
rest of the directories in /usr/share/pivot-weblog/. However,
there are some scripts in the pivot directory that manage the
information stored in db and refer to files inside it using
relative paths. For exaple, from pv_core.php:
if (file_exists("db/ser_lasttrack.php"))
I'd like knowing if there is a way to make pv_core.php
access the directory /var/cache/pivot-weblog/db/ without
writing the full path in the source code. Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
