Xpirix commented 2 months ago

This is the proposed change for #373 according to the (ongoing) discussion at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/8982

Changes summary

Add new keys in metadata: minQtVersion and maxQtVersion (both defaulting to 5 for now)
Show the new keys in the plugin details and the XML list

Thanks @Xpirix for this update. Given that we already have qgisMinimumVersion and qgisMaximumVersion in the metadata file, would it make sense to keep that structure and instead have qtMinimumVersion and qtMaximumVersion? @elpaso @rduivenvoorde

I have no idea if this is a situation that may happen irl (or if it is desirable) but would that allow someone to constrain his plugins to work for specific qt versions, e.g. min=5.13 and/or max=6.6 because of incompatible changes in Qt's other versions?
