Hi all, I want write plugin that read metadata from catalog and export as text file.

I want to put exported files on user's home, but I can not find method described to obtain users home

LrPathUtils.standardizePath( '~' )

should do the job for you.

LrPathUtils.standardizePath( '~' ) works on Mac but not Windows.  Instead, use LrPathUtils.getStandardFilePath ("home").
