Missing plugins in Qupzilla #2147

Open Kishore96in opened 7 years ago

Kishore96in commented 7 years ago

My installation of Qupzilla is missing a number of the plugins (eg. access keys navigation) listed in https://github.com/QupZilla/qupzilla-plugins/wiki. I have checked in my distribution(Arch Linux)'s package (version 2.0.2) and by compiling from the source available on github. The downloaded source contains folders corresponding to the missing plugins (with various c files in them). However, some of the plugins are missing from the settings dialog in the compiled binary.

Access Keys Navigation is not ported to QupZilla 2 yet.

Kishore96in commented 7 years ago

Is there any documentation on what changes need to be made to port plugins to Qupzilla 2?

nowrep commented 7 years ago

Basically the same as porting from QtWebKit -> QtWebEngine. That means instead of C++ API use JavaScript to manipulate content of webpages.

This would be a great plugin to have in QupZilla 2. Link hints are so convenient!

Seconded. Access keys is one of Qupzilla's best features.

epitron commented 7 years ago

Is there another QtWebEngine based browser with this feature which we can just port over?

(There are quite a few browsers which have this: qute-browser, uzbl, luakit, etc.)
