Getting Started

How to get started as a developer?

QML Apps

We have various apps and components written in QML. By using stub data you'll be able to use most of them on a desktop for agile development :)

What you will need:

• Qt Creator (included with Qt which can be downloaded from https://www.qt.io/download/) or installed on Linux using one of these commands:

  Ubuntu/Debian

  sudo apt-get install qtcreator qtdeclarative5-private-dev qtbase5-private-dev # Due to the way Qt is packaged, we also need to install some dependencies.

  Fedora

  yum install qt-creator

  Gentoo

  emerge dev-qt/qt-creator

• luneos-components (This is our shared library of components used across various QML apps and can be found at https://github.com/webOS-ports/luneos-components)

  1. git clone https://github.com/webOS-ports/luneos-components.git

  2. Open the luneos-components.pro file in Qt Creator.
  3. Under Projects (on the left side), go to the Build tab (should be the default) and change the following settings:
     1. Deactivate Shadow Build.
     2. For the qmake build steps, click on Details to expand the edit area.
     3. Set Additional Arguments to:

        CONFIG+=desktop

  4. Now, under the Run tab at the top:
     1. Set Executable to

        qmlscene

     2. Set Additional Arguments to

        -l modules -l test/imports examples/gallery/main.qml

     3. Under Run Environment, click Details to expand the settings.
     4. Add a setting called

        QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE

        and give it a value of

        LuneOS
