Where are the plasmoid configurations stored? #20

How can I back up the configurations for this plasmoid? I'm planning to put the related files under version control to passively track changes to the widget.

Your entire desktop layout is serialized to ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc

If you use eventcalendar, I wouldn't recommend making it public though as I put your login access token in that config.

Edit: Also these are all the config keys: https://github.com/Zren/plasma-applet-commandoutput/blob/master/package/contents/config/main.xml

You could use a script to read/write certain keys to another file.

value=`kreadconfig5 --file=$HOME/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc --group=Containments --group=35 --group=Applets --group=60 --group=Configuration --group=General --key=command`
kwriteconfig5 --file=backup.ini --group=commandoutput --group=General --key=command "${value}"

I guess I'll track the appletsrc for now since it doesnt contain any sensitive data. Thanks for the quick reply.
