Module env 

Shared environment variable names used by Winbrew’s path and config resolution.

These constants define the public environment-variable names that higher-level configuration code reads before it resolves the final application paths. They are stable strings that external scripts, tests, and administrators can rely on when overriding Winbrew’s defaults.

Platform Notes

LOCALAPPDATA is a Windows-specific convention. Winbrew exports the name so the default Windows application root can be derived consistently.

Security Considerations

These values are read from the process environment via std::env::var. Treat them as untrusted input until the caller validates or normalizes the resulting path.

Constants

LOCALAPPDATA

Standard Windows environment variable that points to the user’s Local AppData directory.

WINBREW_PATHS_ROOT

Winbrew-specific environment variable that overrides the configured paths.root value.
