Skeleton Plasmoid

Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net

Description:

Hi,
For a long time I have been collecting information about creation of plasmoids in Python.
All that I found, I have implemented in this demo (but many features are still in development).

Hopefully, it will be useful for you and help you to create more great plasmoids.

IMPLEMENTED SO FAR:
1. Notifications
2. Configuration management (plus configuration window)
3. Tooltips
4. Ability to change form-factor between panel plasmoids and desktop versions on-demand
5. Custom contextual actions
6. Transparent compilation of UI from *.ui files
7. Localization
8. Wallet integration
9 Network state & monitoring

PLANNED:
* DataEngines
* Documentation

USEFULL LINKS:

It really worked for me.

Could appreciate a little more documented code, specially for python neophytes as me. But as it is is very helpful.

Hope you keep developing this skeleton.

Nice! Would you mind adding these examples to the kdeexamples module? If you don't have developer access I can do that for you.

Alternatively, these could be added to kapptemplate.

On second thought, I really encourage you to get a developer account and develop these examples directly in KDE's git (kdeexamples). Good examples for Python applets are sorely missing.
