Plasma Mobile

This repository contains shell components for Plasma Mobile.

Reporting issues

Locations

  • components/mobileshell - private shell component library (API not guaranteed to be stable!)
  • containments - shell panels (homescreens, status bar, task panel)
  • kcms - settings module
  • look-and-feel - Plasma look-and-feel packages (ex. lockscreen, logout, etc.)
  • shell - Plasma shell package, provides implementations for applet and containment configuration dialogs
  • quicksettings - quick settings packages for the action drawer
  • tests - small runnable snippets that can be used to test parts of the shell without loading all of Plasma

Test on a development machine

See the documentation page for more details.

It is recommended to use kdesrc-build to build this from source. See this page in order to set it up.

Dependencies:

  • KDE Frameworks 6 setup (plasma-framework and its dependencies)
  • plasma-nano
  • plasma-workspace
  • plasma-nm
  • plasma-pa
  • bluez-qt
  • Milou (for search)
  • Kirigami
  • Kirigami Addons
  • feedbackd (optional: for vibrations)

To start the shell in a window, run:

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland dbus-run-session kwin_wayland --xwayland "plasmashell -p org.kde.plasma.mobileshell"

Useful options:

  • Specify the --output-count flag for the number of displays
  • Specify --width and --height for the window size
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland dbus-run-session kwin_wayland --xwayland "plasmashell -p org.kde.plasma.mobileshell" --output-count 2 --width 360 --height 720
