Hi,
Not sure where to find support for this, but i am trying to use the
LaunchApp javascript-api extension in a plasmoid, to launch a shell script
via a button in my main.qml file. I came across this api extension on
https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma4/JavaScript/API-LaunchApp
which is for plasma 4. Is this still valid for plasma 5 ?
I tried using this in my plasmoid but am getting an error "TypeError:
Property 'runCommand' of object AppletInterface(0x1a28320) is not a
function"
Main.qml button:
import org.kde.plasma.core 2.0 as PlasmaCore
import org.kde.plasma.plasmoid 2.0
import org.kde.plasma.components 2.0 as PlasmaComponents
import org.kde.plasma.extras 2.0 as PlasmaExtras
Button {
id: startservicebutton
width: parent.width
anchors.fill: parent
height: 36
text: qsTr("Start Service")
MouseArea {
id: mouseArea1
Layout.fillWidth: true;
anchors.fill: parent
height: parent.height
hoverEnabled: false
onClicked: {
plasmoid.runCommand("bash",
["servicestart.sh"]);
}
}
}
Metadata.desktop entry:
X-Plasma-Requires-LaunchApp=Required
X-Plasma-RequiredExtensions=LaunchApp
Is there any alternative way to run this javascript-api extension or new
syntax in plasma 5 or a single shell command without having to use C++ from
a qml plasmoid ?
