Get Project path

Anonymous — Thu, 13 Apr 2017 07:35:10 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to do some lua io writing to file operations. Is there anyway I can retrieve the Project folder path?

I guess its possible since everything is relative to the project folder.

Thanks!

As you said everything is relative to project path. I am not sure exactly what you want to achieve since everything in your project is already known.

Hi,

For example, I am doing some lua.io operations to create a text file in the root project directory.

file = io.open("output.txt", "w") -- This does not works

file = io.open("C:/Users/Me/Desktop/Project/output.txt", "w") -- This works

Hence, I am wondering if there are some tokens which I could use to get the project folder path.

For example something like:

file = io.open("%ProjectDIR%/output.txt", "w")

Thanks!
