atomsGetInstalledPath

Gets the install path of some installed external modules

Syntax

paths = atomsGetInstalledPath(modules)
paths = atomsGetInstalledPath(modules, section)

Arguments

modules

m x 1, m x 2, or m x 3 matrix of strings

1st Col. (Mandatory) 2nd Col. (Optional) 3rd Col. (Optional)
Technical name Version: If this value is missing or "", the first (and possibly only installed) version found is considered. Section: If this value is missing or "", the "all" section is used. Possible values are "user", "allusers", and "all".
section

single string among "user", "allusers", "all". It is used ony if modules has less than 3 columns. It is equivalent to modules(:,3)=section.

paths

the paths of the given modules (starting with SCI or SCIHOME), or "" for any unfound module, such that always size(paths,1)==size(modules,1).

Description

atomsGetInstalledPath returns the installation path of given external modules, or "" for any unfound module.

If no module with the given exact case-sensitive technical name is found among installed modules, the search is rerun in a case-insensitive way. If still no match is found, the search is rerun in a case-insensitive way considering the provided technical name as a fragment of the true name. In case of

If for a modules(i,:) several matches are found, only the first one is considered.

Examples

atomsGetInstalledPath toolbox_7V6       // exact name,                  no version
atomsGetInstalledPath ToolBox_7v6       // else: case-insensitive name, no version
atomsGetInstalledPath TOOLBOX_7         // else: fragment of name,      no version
atomsGetInstalledPath toolbox_7 allusers  // + wrong section => "" (not found)
atomsGetInstalledPath toolbox_7 all
atomsGetInstalledPath(["toolbox_7", "2"])   // not this version => "" (not found)
atomsGetInstalledPath(["toolbox_7", "1"])   // not this version => "" (not found)
atomsGetInstalledPath(["toolbox_7", "1.0"]) // version found

atomsRemove("toolbox_7V6");
