[v2] Requesting A example of how I access to arbitrary filesystem paths.

[s3xysteak]

In v1 I use "scope": [ **/* ], but it seems that can not work in v2.
I get user's steam games install paths and copy mods to there. But I cannot know where user will install games, so I think I need a solution to access to arbitrary filesystem paths.

You could ask them with a folder dialog which will extend the scope for the selected folder automatically and if you use the persisted-scope plugin it will even persist between app starts.

Alternatively ** should still work as part of the new ACL: https://beta.tauri.app/features/file-system/#permissions

Thank you, it works! Document here said configure it in plugins. So I just configured tauri.conf.json and did not work.

I hope to provide an extremely simple interactive way. Because I only need to query specific game directories, as I query the installation directory of Steam through the registry, and then parse Steam's configuration file to find the game installation directory, I hope this process is automatic and does not require manual operation by the user, so it is difficult to set the scope.

Is there a feature that allows scope adjustment through code within a certain scope? Like:

import { createScopedAcl } from '@tauri-app/api'

const acl = createScopedAcl()
acl.permissions({
    "identifier": "fs:scope",
    "allow": [{"path": "**/*"}]
}, async () => {
  await copyFile('a', 'b')
})
