Portable Mode

Version applied to this wiki:

  • Platform: Windows
  • Version: >= 0.3.0

In 0.3.0 we introduced a simple config dialog for users who want to tweak some default behavior to fit their own needs, then these personalized settings must have a place to save. In case some people prefer a portable installation of this app (prevent to generate app data files inside their user directory), there is also a portable mode for this app.

To make this app generate config file inside the application directory, you need to create a data folder inside the root directory where you installed/unzipped the application. After that, you're done :)

This mode can also be helpful if you want to embed/integrate Pineapple Pictures as a part of your own program, thus you can ship a pre-configured configuration file to the end user before the Pineapple Pictures program gets invoked by your program.

This approach is the same as what VSCode does.
