[SOLVED] Import directory in QML

Qnoobish

Hello,

I've been reading the documentation on importing directories in QML: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtqml-syntax-directoryimports.html
and what I am trying to do is not working.

I have a QML file that imports an absolute path in another drive:

@import QtQuick 2.0
import "D:/My Documents/SametimeFileTransfers/importsTest/Level3/"

Rectangle {
width: 800
height: 600
Text {
anchors.centerIn: parent
text: "Hello World"
}
MouseArea {
anchors.fill: parent
onClicked: {

    }
}

Cuadro{
    id: yo
    color:"red"

    MouseArea {
        anchors.fill: parent
        onClicked: {
            yo.color="yellow";
            yo.cambia("hola");
        }
    }
}

}
@

According to the documentation, importing an absolute path is available but it's not working for me.

So I don't know if importing a directory in another drive will work. Right now I have the file "main.qml" located somewhere in drive C: and I would like to import a QML directory located in drive D:

If this is possible how can i handle this import?

Any comment regarding this issue is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Try to use import <dir> as name, example:

import "D:/My Documents/SametimeFileTransfers/importsTest/Level3/" as level3

Then you should be able to use:

level3.<some-file-there>

Hello, thanks for your reply.

I tried to import the directory and place an identifier or local namespace, as you explained, but it's also not working :(

This directory is outside the qml main files. Try to use QMLEngine.addImportPath(...) and qmldir to define the QML components.

My problem is solved if I use the following syntax:

@import "file:///D:/QML_Modules"@

If the "file:///" part is used, my path gets imported.

Hopefully this would help someone else.

I'll mark this thread as solved.
