this works perfectly, but i just feel like theres a better way of doing this (also im only making this for windows)
export async function updateStartupSetting(startOnStartup: boolean) {
const startupPath = await path.resolve(await path.appDataDir(), '..', 'Microsoft', 'Windows', 'Start Menu', 'Programs', 'Startup');
const exePath = await invoke<string>('current_exe');
if (!(await fs.exists(startupPath))) {
await message(`Startup apps folder does not exist! Checked:\n${startupPath}`, { title: 'Studio Plugin Enhancer', kind: 'error' });
return;
}
const shortcutPath = await path.join(startupPath, 'StudioPluginEnhancer.lnk');
if (startOnStartup) {
if (await fs.exists(shortcutPath)) {
return;
}
const escapedShortcutPath = shortcutPath.replace(/\\/g, '\\\\');
const escapedExePath = exePath.replace(/\\/g, '\\\\');
const workingDirectory = (await path.dirname(exePath)).replace(/\\/g, '\\\\');
const command = Command.create('powershell');
command.on('close', async (status) => {
if (status.code !== 0) {
await message(`Failed to create shortcut with exit code ${status.code} at:\n${shortcutPath}`, { title: 'Studio Plugin Enhancer', kind: 'error' });
}
});
const process = await command.spawn();
await process.write(`$WshShell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell\n`);
await process.write(`$Shortcut = $WshShell.CreateShortcut('${escapedShortcutPath}')\n`);
await process.write(`$Shortcut.TargetPath = '${escapedExePath}'\n`);
await process.write(`$Shortcut.WorkingDirectory = '${workingDirectory}'\n`);
await process.write(`$Shortcut.Save()\n`);
await process.write('exit\n');
} else {
if (await fs.exists(shortcutPath)) {
await fs.remove(shortcutPath);
}
}
}
