[13:59] dpm, I wasn't sure if mhall or you would be around [14:00] hmm, "Planning the Ubuntu SDK Week" points here [14:00] am I missing something? [14:00] and we're going live [14:00] just a second [14:01] dholbach, I thought you were, I'm leading the other session [14:01] dpm, no worries [14:01] so who's active in the appdev world and wants to contribute to this session in the hangout itself? [14:02] bzoltan, could you help dholbach? ^ [14:02] and here we go! [14:03] dholbach: I am interested and involved, but I do not know much else about this session [14:03] bzoltan, sure I'll invite you [14:04] dholbach: cool, thanks [14:06] The SDK, IMO wsa a huge success [14:06] anyone else wants to join in? [14:07] was* [14:07] and come on the hangout? [14:07] * vibhav is below 18 [14:07] dholbach: I started the hangout for this room.. have you changed it [14:07] :( [14:07] QUESTION: is qt5/qml for desktop applications in scope for this session/ [14:07] popey, really? I changed it - I asked around who did :-((( [14:07] no, I'm asking [14:07] popey, want me to invite you? [14:08] I am track lead, I'm supposed to start the hangout [14:08] which I did [14:08] sorry [14:08] twice now because dpm did too [14:08] * popey gives up [14:09] QUESTION: can you update the feed link. the one in the meeting page says "live event will begin in few moments" [14:09] Wellark: huh? http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/meeting/21629/appdev-1303-sdk-week-planning/ works fine for me [14:10] t1mp: well, does not work for me :/ [14:11] Wellark: on youtube maybe? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K6at1GhEi8&feature=player_embedded#! [14:11] yes, very ambitious ;) [14:11] t1mp: that works. the event page links to http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=IJd3wgWjP5Y [14:12] haha === udsbotu changed the topic of #ubuntu-uds-appdev-2 to: Track: App Development | Planning the Ubuntu SDK Week | Url: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/meeting/21629/appdev-1303-sdk-week-planning/ [14:14] yes we want more applications. It is really cool to see apps that make use of our sdk :) And without applications, having an SDK is pointless [14:17] can we develop desktop apps with ubuntu widgets [14:17] ah [14:17] how soon, we need to rewrite a gui soon [14:18] it's a purely desktop app [14:18] can we write qt5 + python apps? [14:18] * zyga-uds asks too many questions [14:18] ok, I have to check this [14:19] the next gwibber release for raring will be qt5 with ubuntu sdk... and that's for the desktop :) [14:19] the last time I checked, PySide/PyQt didn't yet support Qt 5, but I may be wrong [14:19] our current app is qt4 + cpp but it really talks to python for everything in the backend [14:20] zyga-uds: actually correction, PyQt supports Qt 5 [14:20] I think we are sold on the concept, just trying to figure out how to approach that and if we should participate next week [14:20] thanks [14:20] dholbach! [14:20] :-D [14:20] Mirv: thanks, that's very importnat [14:20] sure [14:20] important [14:21] is anyone of you interested in giving a session next week? [14:23] how long is the event planned to be? [14:23] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuSDKDays/Prep [14:23] thanks [14:24] dholbach: yeah, I can do something, like I wrote in my email, however, since I am a qml newbie, I don't know how good my qml style is [14:24] I would love to see a desktop / python3 session but I'm not ready to lead that as my qt5 knowledge is minimal [14:26] :) [14:27] join #ubuntu-uds-servercloud-1 [14:28] yep, obviously I can be helping with installing and configuring of the SDK [14:30] I would love to hear something about structuring qml apps to ensure maintainability (e.g. reusable components, unit tests, inline js vs js in separate fiels,...) [14:30] dholbach: I'm installing the SDK now, if I can get a qt5/python3 hello world up I can present that next week [14:31] ubuntu-calculator-app has a unit-tests subfolder that you can browse to see how we are doing our calculation engine tests [14:32] zyga-uds, you're a hero [14:34] Mirv: python3-pyqt4 exists, there's nothing for python3-pyqt5 [14:34] You mentioned that there aren't many QML experts out there... What resources would you recommend for "mastering" QML? [14:34] zyga-uds: yeah I was just going to say my only information comes from http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/pipermail/pyqt/2012-December/032216.html - it does state that PyQt4 (snapshot) would support Qt 5 [14:35] ah, so pyqt is not supported yet [14:35] zyga-uds: but it may well be that even though the latest PyQt release in raring is from January, it's not new enough [14:36] QUESTION: can we see if we can update the pyqt5 package (debian does not have that so we cannot sync it) [14:36] or alternatively [14:36] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-calculator-dev/ubuntu-calculator-app/trunk/view/head:/unit-tests/tst_basic.qml [14:36] QUESTION: how would one integrate a qt5/qml gui with python3 application core? [14:37] i was disappointed by how much c++ i had to do... but that will change as we get more bindings [14:37] thanks for clearing that [14:38] did the video stream just die or is it just me? [14:39] t1mp: just you [14:40] t1mp: or, you may mean the app developer site mobile session which seems dead [14:40] or ended, says it's encoding [14:41] Good points... I think that the QML learning curve is something that needs to be considered/addressed... Not sure if this session is the right place, but think that we need to "sell" QML before we can sell the SDK. Thoughts? [14:42] I think that maybe selling the SDK as a whole, the developer response globally for QML is simply quite great AFAIK [14:42] although, it's still good to sell QML as part of it for those are coming from the other backgrounds - since QML is new(ish) to Ubuntu after all [14:43] just some random thoughts :D [14:44] Yeah... Agree... Just thinking if we could ease the learning curve for QML, we would be able to sign up more developers! :) [14:44] bzoltan: QUESTION: was the #ubuntu-touch the channel also for toolkit? [14:44] (what was the collaboration channel with other Qt/QML toolkit makers..) [14:45] #ubuntu-app-devel maybe? I don't know :) [14:45] dholbach: I can join you guys now (If it aint too late) [14:45] vibhav, we're just about to wrap up [14:46] ah fine [14:46] Never mind [14:46] Thank you guys! [14:46] thanks! [14:46] thanks [14:47] thank you! [14:48] thanks everyone! :) === udsbotu changed the topic of #ubuntu-uds-appdev-2 to: Track: App Development | Ubuntu SDK UI Toolkit | Url: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/meeting/21631/appdev-1303-ubuntu-sdk-toolkit/ === ckpringle_ is now known as ckpringle [14:58] Blueprint is https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/appdev-1303-ubuntu-sdk-toolkit [14:58] is that the right one? [15:01] yes pmcgowan [15:02] kaleo MIA [15:04] I am following the IRC [15:04] are there anyone else who want to join the hangout? [15:04] Here. [15:04] QUESTION: When will we have radio controls? [15:04] QUESTION: When will we have a datepicker? [15:04] Mirv: I could join to discuss the HUD [15:05] Wellark: ok [15:06] mpt: I will answer your questions when gerry finishes with the layouts [15:08] No, I don't mean radio buttons. I mean a mobile equivalent to radio buttons. [15:08] For example, something to choose between "POP" vs. "IMAP" when setting up a mail account. [15:08] For example, the iOS equivalent is a grouped table. [15:09] It is not just a "desktop thing". [15:09] Who is designing the components? [15:10] I'm designing System Settings for mobile. That's why I'm asking. :-) [15:11] okay, cool [15:13] QUESTION: What's the best way to provide feedback on the API? For example, it looks (though I'm not sure) as if there's no way to label the ends of a slider. Would that be a bug report, or something raised in a meeting, or what? [15:14] mpt: This is the project https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-toolkit and we folow the bugs there [15:14] thanks [15:15] * mpt subscribes [15:15] mpt: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone [15:16] tutorial link: step 2 on https://developer.ubuntu.com/get-started/gomobile/ [15:18] QUESTION: is there support for changing the UI on rotation (different between landscape and portrait)? For example, the iOS calculator turns into a scientific calculator in landscape [15:19] the header will have the same behavior as it has in the tabs? (scroll together with a flickable) [15:21] ok :) [15:22] boiko: yes, exactly the same. And the Tabs will be updated to use the "common" Header component (but you won't notice the difference) [15:22] t1mp: nice! I need that in some views of the phone-app [15:23] t1mp: thanks [15:27] the HUD is definitely the coolest [15:27] bzoltan: one thing i don't understand about the hud is why was it designed to have access to all the apps menus and not just the currently running app [15:29] sorry, brb. [15:31] back [15:31] ok, i just found the top list of app icons confusing. thanks for explaining [15:33] ...or you could have them migrate to raring/rolling? [15:33] :P [15:40] accessibility roles are also needded. [15:40] As well as possible stuff for keyboard nav in the desktop case. [15:41] TheMuso: agreed [15:41] I'm happy to work with you guys to get that sorted, since I can do testing. [15:41] Wasn't a questino. [15:41] It was a statement. [15:42] TheMuso: cool! Do you know if autopilot can integrate with orca at all? [15:42] greyback: No, but LDTP will likely be able to do so. [15:42] LDTP uses the accessibility framework to do testing. [15:42] Note that there are still some bugs in the Qt a11y code itself. [15:42] I'll be working with upstream to try and get these addressed. [15:42] TheMuso: that's true. I'm not sure if we want to use /another/ testing framework however :) [15:43] TheMuso: in qt5 still? Oh dear :( [15:43] Yes. [15:43] There is only one person working on the code upstream after all. [15:43] cheers! [15:43] TheMuso: fregl? [15:43] greyback: Is there another channel for the SDk where we can talk about this further? [15:43] greyback: Yes. [15:44] #ubuntu-touch is all we have so far [15:44] Ok. [15:44] TheMuso: ^^ let's move there [15:44] Sure.
