encodeEOF :: Binary a => FilePath -> a -> IO () Source
Serialize, compress and save data with an EOF marker.
The OK
is used as an EOF marker to ensure any apparent problems with
corrupted files are reported to the user ASAP.
strictDecodeEOF :: Binary a => FilePath -> IO a Source
Read, decompress and deserialize data with an EOF marker.
The OK
EOF marker ensures any easily detectable file corruption
is discovered and reported before the function returns.
tryCreateDir :: FilePath -> IO () Source
Try to create a directory, if it doesn't exist. We catch exceptions in case many clients try to do the same thing at the same time.
tryCopyDataFiles :: FilePath -> (FilePath -> IO FilePath) -> [(FilePath, FilePath)] -> IO () Source
Try to copy over data files, if not already there. We catch exceptions in case many clients try to do the same thing at the same time.
appDataDir :: IO FilePath Source
Personal data directory for the game. Depends on the OS and the game,
e.g., for LambdaHack under Linux it's ~/.LambdaHack/
.
