Hi,
I am missing the weather applet in my Plasma5 workspace. I found the
sources in kdeplasma-addons/applets/weather, but it seems not yet ported
and is disabled from the build.
So I would see to port it over now myself.
A few questions I have:
Q1:
Is anyone already looking into it?
Any general plans with weather info display in Plasma5?
Q2:
I see plasma_applet_weather is using some libplasmaweather from
kdeplasma-addons/libs/plasmaweather, which is also not yet ported and
disabled from build. Looks it is for code sharing with the weatherstation
applet (which is unported and disabled from build as well).
Does it make sense to keep the current structure with the shared lib and
the applet, at least for the initial port of the weather applet?
Q3:
Are there any Plasma5 applet tutorials, especially for porting?
techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma5 seems about QQ2-only apps.
So far I was planning to look for some reference e.g. at the comic applet
and how it got ported.
Cheers
Friedrich
