Tranquil IT Forum

Hello,

I'm new to this forum and also new to Python. I'd like to modify a package by inserting a configuration file (XML) that needs to be copied to a specific location after the package installation is complete. This XML file is a modified version of a file already present in the original packaged software. Therefore, the original file should also be deleted after installation.

I thought about modifying the package from the WAPT console and modifying the code displayed by PyScripter using `shutil()`. I imagine I would need to add `shutil()` inside the `install()` function?

Thanks in advance.

You can draw inspiration from existing packages offered on the store.wapt.fr repository, such as the package https://wapt.tranquil.it/package_detail ... 4_all.wapt with the filecopyto() command
