resourceDir
resourceDir():
Promise
<string
>
Defined in: path.ts:495
Returns the path to the application’s resource directory.
To resolve a resource path, see resolveResource
.
Although we provide the exact path where this function resolves to, this is not a contract and things might change in the future
- Windows: Resolves to the directory that contains the main executable.
- Linux: When running in an AppImage, the
APPDIR
variable will be set to the mounted location of the app, and the resource dir will be${APPDIR}/usr/lib/${exe_name}
. If not running in an AppImage, the path is/usr/lib/${exe_name}
. When running the app fromsrc-tauri/target/(debug|release)/
, the path is${exe_dir}/../lib/${exe_name}
. - macOS: Resolves to
${exe_dir}/../Resources
(inside .app). - iOS: Resolves to
${exe_dir}/assets
. - Android: Currently the resources are stored in the APK as assets so it’s not a normal file system path,
we return a special URI prefix
asset://localhost/
here that can be used with the file system plugin,
