fix-path-env-rs

A Rust crate to fix the PATH environment variable on macOS and Linux when running a GUI app.

GUI apps on macOS and Linux do not inherit the $PATH from your shell dotfiles (.bashrc, .bash_profile, .zshrc, etc).

Installation

There are three general methods of installation that we can recommend.

1. Pull sources directly from Github using git tags / revision hashes (most secure, good for developement, shown below)
2. Git submodule install this repo in your tauri project and then use file protocol to ingest the source
3. Use crates.io and npm (easiest, and requires you to trust that our publishing pipeline worked)

Please note, below in the dependencies you can also lock to a revision/tag in the Cargo.toml.

src-tauri/Cargo.toml

[dependencies.tauri]
git = "https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/"
branch = "dev"
features = ["api-all"]

[dependencies.fix-path-env]
git = "https://github.com/tauri-apps/fix-path-env-rs"
tag = "fix-path-env-v0.1.0"
#branch = "dev"

Use in src-tauri/src/main.rs:

fn main() {
    fix_path_env::fix();
    tauri::Builder::default()
        .run(tauri::generate_context!());
}
