[Health-dev] HMIS client config folder

[Gerald Wiese]

Hello,

I just tested the GNU Health client release candidate using TestPyPI. As 
I am filling the config files with Ansible I was missing the expected 
profiles.

Usually the config folders were named '3.8' and '4.0' so I would have 
expected '4.2' but just got '4'.

Seems like the code expects 3 numbers separated by dots and does not 
exclude 'rc' or 'b' for beta or release candidate versions.

I Managed to get config folder '4.2' like this:

--- a/gnuhealth/config.py       Wed Jan 25 19:31:19 2023 +0000
+++ b/gnuhealth/config.py       Wed Feb 01 13:09:09 2023 +0100

             appdata = str(appdata, sys.getfilesystemencoding())
         return os.path.join(appdata, '.config', 'gnuhealth',
-                __version__.rsplit('.', 1)[0])
+                '.'.join(__version__.split('.', 
2)[:2]).split('rc')[0].split('b')[0])
     return os.path.join(os.environ['HOME'], '.config', 'gnuhealth',
-            __version__.rsplit('.', 1)[0])
+            '.'.join(__version__.split('.', 
2)[:2]).split('rc')[0].split('b')[0])


Before it just removed the last element separated by '.'

I took the approach from the same file to define 'short_version' to 
rather take the first two elements separated by dots and then added to 
cut anything starting with 'rc' or 'b'.

Not sure if this would have ever been relevant outside the release 
candidate version but could be a small improvement.

Best
