Hey,

in Debian we package more and more QML applications and face the problem, that 
we don't have tooling to easily get a list of QML dependencies out of the qml 
files. I normally end up doing a grep in the qml files and than I need to 
translate these dependencies to the corresponding Debian packages. What is 
quite error prune.
Does anyone have already a working solution to detect the QML dependencies - 
maybe there is alaready a qmllinter/qmlchecker tool that returns the needed 
QML dependencies and create package dependencies?

That is currently my way:

grep -r --include="*qml" '^import ' | sed 's/^.*\.qml:import \([^ ]*.*\)/\1/g' 
| sort | uniq

Regards,

hefee

I've been looking into this for Fedora as well:
https://pagure.io/fedora-kde/SIG/issue/37

There are some examples of dependency generators from openSUSE,
Sailfish OS, and OpenMandriva.

It'd be good to turn this into a unified framework that distributions
can use, because all these implementations are kind of scattered with
their own issues.
