Please don't use /usr for these -- this is read-only package manager territory. For a system-wide database, use /var/lib/myapp, for a per-user database use ~/.config/myapp or ~/.local/share/myapp > > Has the cockpit API maybe an easy way to retrieve the directory where an > > extension lives in? > > > > I am not aware of it, but it would not be hard to write a simple function > to find from where the extension is being served.

That not, but again, the installation directory of a cockpit page is a really bad place for data.
