Document "custom recipes"/"Environment recipes"

Open Lucki opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Note: If something is mentioning behavior then that is for 2022.8.28-brescia-2 - the current AUR version.

Please properly document "custom recipes" - sometimes also called "Environment recipes" and be consistent with the naming.

The only source I have found is a forum post linking to a release post.

  • The blog post titles with "Environment Recipes" where the UI calls it "custom recipes". Searching for "wine" and "bottles" is already a nightmare and adding "custom recipes" doesn't make this easier at all.
  • The documentation doesn't mention this topic.
  • The blog post contains a simple example but I can't tell if it is outdated or even complete - it's only an example and months old by now.
  • The Example in the blog post contains a "Runner" setting but in my testing this gets overridden by the UI setting. Now I wonder if it should override the UI setting and if that is the case how I can override the other UI settings (eg "don't link home") from inside the "custom recipe" if that would work.

Bonus Bottles issue:

  • When selecting a recipes the UI doesn't change - I can't see if something is selected in that field.
