Question

Is there a way to determine the Bazaar directory programmatically?
If there is a bazaar command to determine the plugin directory, this would be the best solution.

Answer 1

Have a look at the Bazaar configuration: output of bzr version. Also see function show_version in bzrlib/version.py.

For the configuration directory use:

from bzrlib import config
print config.config_dir()

Or, for the user plugin path (see bzrlib/plugin.py):

from bzrlib import plugin
print plugin.get_user_plugin_path()

For a full list of plugin paths:

from bzrlib import plugin
print plugin.get_standard_plugins_path()
