Qt-only too? #20

Open ghost opened 10 years ago

ghost commented 10 years ago

This is too good to be KDE-only. Could you make it work in LXQt-panel without much trouble on your side?

  1. The widget depends on specific KDE services named DataEngine and I have no plan to remove this dependency. But I hope that since KF5 this service will be detached from other KDE components.
  2. Although currently widget depends on specific KDE UI elements I think that this dependency may be removed. So theoretically, it can be used in other environments. (But I should note I don't know what API is provided by LXQt).
  3. I'm not sure that LXQt provides python bindings for widgets. (Since the main part of widget UI written on Python/PyQt).

tl;dr: I will not close this issue, because I will try to take into account your wishes and port this widget to LXQt. But I'm not sure that I can do it. And I don't know when I'll do that.

What's going on?!! You're not working on a bare Qt compatible version, are you?!!

sorry. The latest commit was about #30, not #20 (I've mixed up the numbers). But your request will be realized (hope) after module system implementation (plan to 2.1.0).

Great. Thank you.
