2015-11-21 13:36:07	TimSueberkrueb	Hey :) How can I start an asteroid application from command line (using adb shell)?
2015-11-21 13:39:15	@kido	hi TimSueberkrueb :)
2015-11-21 13:45:02	TimSueberkrueb	thank you :)
2015-11-21 13:46:05	@kido	if you need an openembedded recipe for qtquickcontrols-asteroid I'm just about to write it
2015-11-21 13:47:19	TimSueberkrueb	kido: okay
2015-11-21 13:47:21	TimSueberkrueb	error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment.
2015-11-21 13:47:21	TimSueberkrueb	Failed to create display (No such file or directory)
2015-11-21 13:47:33	TimSueberkrueb	ahhh that's supposed to be xD
2015-11-21 13:47:38	TimSueberkrueb	sry
2015-11-21 13:48:21	TimSueberkrueb	great, it works
2015-11-21 13:48:57	TimSueberkrueb	(my problem was that I'm chatting from thunderbird and it displays "XD" as smiley, so I just copied G_RUNTIME_DIR :'D
2015-11-21 13:49:05	locusf	hahaha
2015-11-21 13:49:19	@kido	ahah excellent :D
2015-11-21 13:51:12	@kido	TimSueberkrueb: for easier development, if you don't want the screen to turn off all the time you can use: "mcetool -D on" it will enable "demo mode" of MCE which will stop the screen from locking
2015-11-21 13:51:47	TimSueberkrueb	kido: ah, nice, thx! :)
2015-11-21 13:52:36	TimSueberkrueb	Would be nice to have some kind of set of asteroid build scripts, I aliased some stuff e.g. asteroidboot, asteroidmake for easier testing.
2015-11-21 13:53:03	@kido	indeed
2015-11-21 13:53:11	@kido	I also have a "boot-dory" for fastboot boot and so on
2015-11-21 13:53:20	TimSueberkrueb	we could call it "asterix [command]" :D
2015-11-21 13:53:46	@kido	would be great :D
2015-11-21 13:59:48	TimSueberkrueb	In case of app design: Would it be somehow possible to detect whether the screen is rectangular or rounded?
2015-11-21 14:00:47	@kido	not for now
2015-11-21 14:01:32	@kido	I guess the porters will have to hardcode an envvar or something that tells when the screen is circular or not and qtquickcontrols-asteroid should adapt to it. however we only support the lg g watch for now so it's not really a current problem
2015-11-21 14:01:34	TimSueberkrueb	ok
2015-11-21 19:25:09	TimSueberkrueb	hey, trying to display SVG Images in a QML app. Have QT += svg in my .pro though it produces this error: "QML Image: Invalid image data: ...myfile.svg". Made sure the project is rebuilt. Do you know what the problem could be?
2015-11-21 19:31:12	@kido	TimSueberkrueb: mhh let me a minute to look at it
2015-11-21 19:32:45	@kido	do you have /usr/lib/libQt5Svg.so ?
2015-11-21 19:33:10	@kido	and /usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqsvg.so ?
2015-11-21 19:36:02	@kido	I guess that a "adb push tmp-glibc/work/armv7a-vfp-neon-oe-linux-gnueabi/qtsvg/5.4.2+gitAUTOINC+ccae23961e-r0/packages-split/qtsvg-plugins/ /" and "adb push tmp-glibc/work/armv7a-vfp-neon-oe-linux-gnueabi/qtsvg/5.4.2+gitAUTOINC+ccae23961e-r0/packages-split/qtsvg/ /" in your asteroid build's tree should do the trick
2015-11-21 19:37:31	@kido	it's normal that OpenEmbedded limits the installed file, currently QtSvg wasn't needed by the system so we didn't install it... however when you'll write the OE recipe of your app you'll just have to add DEPENDS += "qtsvg" and everything will be installed automagicaly :)
2015-11-21 19:38:27	TimSueberkrueb	kido: okay, thanks so much, will try ... :)
2015-11-21 19:39:10	@kido	I'm curious about what you're preparing :D
2015-11-21 19:39:50	TimSueberkrueb	ahhh, nothing overwhelming yet :)
2015-11-21 19:40:47	TimSueberkrueb	it works!!!
2015-11-21 19:48:00	TimSueberkrueb	how does the screenshot app work?
2015-11-21 20:20:40	@kido	:D
2015-11-21 20:21:00	@kido	the screenshot app uses dbus to talk with lipstick (which is the library behind asteroid-launcher) and it doesn't work yet
2015-11-21 20:21:27	@kido	for now I run everything as root which is obviously a terrible idea and should not last before any serious release
2015-11-21 20:21:45	@kido	and with root dbus is sometimes messed up
2015-11-21 20:21:52	@kido	that's the kind of things which happen
2015-11-21 20:22:50	TimSueberkrueb	ah ok :)
2015-11-21 20:23:25	@kido	that's why I use my smartphone's camera to take photo of my watch :)
2015-11-21 20:26:22	TimSueberkrueb	kay then I think I'll follow your example ;)
2015-11-21 20:27:36	TimSueberkrueb	just hope it will be recognizable as my smartphone's camera is comparable with a potato xD
2015-11-21 20:28:34	TimSueberkrueb	would Qt.labs.Settings work (didn't try it yet)?
2015-11-21 20:33:17	@kido	I didn't know smartphones were made of potatoes... maybe it's just in germany haha
2015-11-21 20:33:32	@kido	anyway no I don't think it would work, what is that supposed to do?
2015-11-21 20:35:10	TimSueberkrueb	:`D
2015-11-21 20:35:36	TimSueberkrueb	saving a bool value
2015-11-21 20:36:08	TimSueberkrueb	http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qt-labs-settings-settings.html
2015-11-21 20:36:19	TimSueberkrueb	man, it works 0/
2015-11-21 20:36:23	TimSueberkrueb	kinda magic :)
2015-11-21 20:52:26	Nokius	kido: :D
2015-11-21 21:03:38	@kido	yay super :)
2015-11-21 21:07:30	@kido	TimSueberkrueb: but I think nemomobile provides a "nemo-qml-plugin-configuration" that gives us similar possibilities
2015-11-21 21:07:40	@kido	anyway... if it works then it's ok
2015-11-21 21:07:49	TimSueberkrueb	kido: yep :)
2015-11-21 21:17:46	TimSueberkrueb	Eventually, here's my potato video ^^:

2015-11-21 21:19:23	TimSueberkrueb	(Off topic: how do you use IRC?)
2015-11-21 22:32:27	@kido	Darn that's great! It has its place in the base asteroid system
