[SailfishDevel] Saving state/config

[Jonni Rainisto]

Hi,

Normal usage of QSettings which saves under /home/nemo/.config/app would be just fine for C++.
If you just want to save few config values in QML, then you might want to use GConf by importing nemo-qml-plugin-configuration module (https://github.com/nemomobile/nemo-qml-plugin-configuration) and use config key like com/yourdomain/applicationname etc.

For example:
--
import org.nemomobile.configuration 1.0

Page {
    ConfigurationValue {
        id: your_foo_setting
        key: "/com/super/superapplication/light_value"
        defaultValue: "-1"
    }

Subject: [SailfishDevel] Saving state/config

I couldn't find any standard way of saving an apps config. Is there such a
standard, or is it up to the developer to choose format and location?

I'm making a *very* simple app, so only using QML/JS, and only have to save
3-4 values.

As far as I could see the location should be /home/nemo/.config/appname[.ext]
which could probably be accomplished better using
QStandardPaths::writableLocation(QStandardPaths::ConfigLocation) but is that
possible in QML?
And which format should it be in?
