Date and Time pickers types for QML

[TOC]

This repo creates a QML module with custom types for date and time selection. Ideally, the types should look like these.

The types should be style-independent, but the colors used rely on the EstervDesigns Simple style. If you want to change the colors in your top QML file you can do

import Esterv.Styles.Simple
...

Component.onCompleted:
{
Style.frontColor1= (Style.theme)?LightThemeColor:DarkThemeColor//Like control.palette.text

Style.frontColor2= ... 
Style.frontColor3= ... 

Style.backColor1= ... 
Style.backColor2= ... 
Style.backColor3= ... 
}

Installing the module

From source code

git clone https://github.com/EddyTheCo/DateTimePickers.git 

mkdir build
cd build
qt-cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=installDir -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DQTDEPLOY=OFF -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DBUILD_DOCS=OFF ../DateTimePickers

cmake --build . 

cmake --install . 

where installDir is the installation path, QTDEPLOY install the examples and Qt dependencies using the cmake-deployment-api. One can choose to build or not the example and the documentation with the BUILD_EXAMPLES and BUILD_DOCS variables.

Using the module in your CMake project

Just add to your project CMakeLists.txt

FetchContent_Declare(
        DTPickersQML
        GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/EddyTheCo/DateTimePickers.git
	GIT_TAG vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH 
	FIND_PACKAGE_ARGS MAJOR.MINOR CONFIG  
    )
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(DTPickersQML)
target_link_libraries(<target> <PRIVATE|PUBLIC|INTERFACE> DTPickersQML::DTPickers) 

If want to use the QML module also add

target_link_libraries(<target> <PRIVATE|PUBLIC|INTERFACE> $<$<STREQUAL:$<TARGET_PROPERTY:DTPickersQML::DTPickers,TYPE>,STATIC_LIBRARY>:DTPickersQML::DTPickersplugin>)

Then you have to add to your QML IMPORT PATH the qrc:/esterVtech.com/imports path. For that one could add this to the main function:

QQmlApplicationEngine engine;
engine.addImportPath("qrc:/esterVtech.com/imports");

Examples

The examples folder shows the use of the different custom types provided by the QML module.

One can also play with the types here
