hello i just wanted to know if this plugin will be available in plasma 6
,thank you

I'm curious as well. One of the best KDE plugins ever!
Totally look forward to installing it again for Plasma 6.

Migrate to KDE Plasma 6 There is an unmerged request, also check out this fork.

Crono141 · Answer 3 · Mon Mar 04 2024 08:42:56 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I can't get that fork to build.

/home/joel/Build/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin/src/backend_mpv/MpvBackend.cpp:37:14: fatal error: QX11Info: No such file or directory
37 | # include // IWYU pragma: keep
| ^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

I have the required dependencies for Qt5, but for some reason it isn't going. QX11Info, and qtx11extras in general were removed in Qt6, so not sure what needs to happen on the code side to make this work.

@fxzjshm can you advise?

I was just looking for plasma 6 support after an update and found this. Great plugin. Please keep it alive.

i build that fork successfully with qt5 , but make install_pkg error

fxzjshm · Answer 6 · Thu Mar 07 2024 15:07:28 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

@Crono141 related code is

#if (QT_VERSION < QT_VERSION_CHECK(6, 0, 0))
#    include <QX11Info> // IWYU pragma: keep
#endif

which should not be used if compiling with Qt 6, that's strange.

@zjypls do not use the fork with Qt 5 because the package structure and QML code is not compatible with Qt 5, just use the original version.

this fork work good with plasma 6 on my Arch now 😃

although run make install_pkg on build directory still give error output:

oh , it looks so strange , i have got the same situation before, because i just copy the metadata.json to the folder

cp GitHub/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin/plugin/metadata.json ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde/

and then i fixed it by move the all old files to a backup folder , and copy the new files to that local folder

mv ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde/* ~/backup/wallper-old
cp GitHub/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin/plugin/* ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde -r

this make it work well

Crono141 · Answer 17 · Thu Mar 07 2024 21:39:38 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Seems for Qt6 there are additional dependents. I had to install QT6-kpackage-devel and qt6-qtbase-private-devel to get it to build. With Catsout's new qt6 branch, it built fine, make install_pkg reported it worked, and make install reported it worked. However, the plugin does NOT show up in the KDE Wallpaper picker.

This is QT6, using the cmake command
cmake .. -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_QML=ON -DQT_MAJOR_VERSION=6

okay so i notived that when i run sudo make install it doesnt actually install the library files and they dont seem to be present in the build files either. going to try to see if i can find them

this seem to say that your qml module lost ? this is what my qml module folder like :

queenbiscuit311 · Answer 21 · Thu Mar 07 2024 22:12:52 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Okay i figured it out. first i had to uninstall plasma5-wallpapers-wallpaper-engine-git from aur, then I had to build, run sudo make install, but instead of what you did I needed to run

cp -r ../plugin/* ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde

The json file and javascript programs inside the plugin expect the program to be in a directory with a specific name and it doesn't work if you name it something else. not sure why it worked for you without doing this. either way it's fully operational now!

Looks like the procedure is as follows:

git clone https://github.com/fxzjshm/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin.git

cd wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin

git submodule update --init

mkdir build && cd build

cmake .. -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_QML=ON -DQT_MAJOR_VERSION=6

make -j$(nproc)

sudo make install

mkdir ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde

cp -r ../plugin/* ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde

Also this means that the directory coded into the plugin is misspelled lol

I think you forgot to git submodule update --init before making your build directory. Otherwise it builds and installs fine. But I am still stuck when I open it:

I have double checked and I already have qmlwebmodule and qtwebsockets for qt6 installed.

Everyone, make sure to install the new qt6 packages.
For Fedora (replace other distros commands qt5 -> qt6, x11 package was missing for me):

Nobara 39, steam deck. I installed qt6 dependencies per @frozht 's post, and rebuilt, but still have the qml error message in the wallpaper picker. I also tried rebuilding from catsout's repository since he's made several commits today, but get errors in cmake:

I was able to build and install with those fixes, but I still have the same qml message when I go to select a wallpaper.

Did you use "cmake .. -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_QML=ON -DQT_MAJOR_VERSION=6" or the new instruction on the readme:

cmake -B build -S . -GNinja -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON

David Hernandez Morones · Answer 31 · Fri Mar 08 2024 05:29:44 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Including the cmake --build build --target install_pkg

Andres · Answer 32 · Fri Mar 08 2024 05:35:33 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Crono141 · Answer 33 · Fri Mar 08 2024 06:49:03 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Well, turns out it was operator error. I had qt6-websockets-devel installed, but it was the i686 build, not x86_64. Installed that and my weird error went away.

That said, there is still something awry. When I went to pick my steam library from the GUI, it hung a LONG time, and then there was a crash message on the main window (behind the folder picker). Unfortunately, the critical part of the error was chopped off. That said, I was able to work around it by getting the full path of the Steam install, and pasting it into the folder selector after the crash. After I closed the window and reopened it, the wallpapers populated and I was able to choose one, and they work.

Thanks for the assists, everyone.

Hilariously, I tried almost everything listed here and it still doesn't work. I tried both repos from catsout and fxzjshm. It seems to give me a new error every time. I have all the necessary packages installed too. I installed using the instructions on the qt6 repo by catsout and the instructions from @queenbiscuit311, and it didn't help. I don't really get it. It seems to get stuck on the cmake .. -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_QML=ON -DQT_MAJOR_VERSION=6 (or the catsout qt6 repo equivalent) command most often, and if that succeeds, then the next will fail for some bizarre reason.

It works! I forgot to do make, my bad. Can't believe make install doesn't automatically build a project though. I'll update here if I have any more issues! There are a few black screens here and there but I assume those are incompatible wallpapers.

You need QT6-kpackage-devel and qt6-qtbase-private-dev as well.

Couldn't find QT6-kpackage-devel, installed the following:

sudo dnf install kf6-kpackage-devel.x86_64
sudo dnf install qt6-qtbase-private-devel.x86_64

Editing the following line in plugin/contents/ui/Pyext.qml did NOT fix it for me:

readonly property string file: "plasma/wallpapers/com.github.catsout.wallpaperEngineKde/contents/pyext.py"

Managed to build with:

cmake .. -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_QML=ON -DQT_MAJOR_VERSION=6

make

sudo make install

Then copied the plugin files to:

mkdir ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde

cp -r ../plugin/* ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.casout.wallpaperEngineKde

That fixed it.

My bad. I had to recall the package name by memory, and got it a little mixed up. Will edit my comment.

That line in plugin/contents/ui/Pyext.qml needs to updated to read:

Yea, that's what I did, I should've put that in the comment.
However, for me, that didn't work. The wallpaperEngine option wouldn't show up in the selector, even if I had the folder ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.catsout.wallpaperEngineKde with the correct name as well.

I had to use casout in both the pyext.py line and as the actual folder name.
It's working now, anyways.

I had got the same error before ,I think it is seem to be caused by the src/CMakeLists.txt line 1 :

find_package(QT NAMES Qt6 Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core)

The find_package functions seem to use Qt5 instead of Qt6 , although I have both Qt5 and 6 installed . And these errors don't stop cmake from generating build files in my environment , but it make the expression be true .

QT_VERSION < QT_VERSION_CHECK( 6 , 0 , 0 )

It causes the project to incorrectly contain Qt5 files , and them are removed by in Qt6 , this will cause some compile error

I just delete Qt5 in src/CMakeLists.txt line 1 , only use Qt6

find_package(QT NAMES Qt6 ~~Qt5~~ REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core)

This make it work well in my environment
