Abstract
Writing a plasma applet in QML is very easy, in fact, with KDE 4.6 and Qt 4.7 it just works.
Package Structure
You create a .desktop file and the .qml file. They have to be in the usual plasma package structure.
plasmoid-qml/metadata.desktop plasmoid-qml/contents/qml/main.qml
metadata.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Hello QML
Comment=A hello world widget in QML
Icon=chronometer
X-Plasma-API=declarativeappletscript
X-Plasma-MainScript=qml/main.qml
X-Plasma-DefaultSize=200,100

import Qt 4.7
Text {
text: "Hello world!";
}
Installing
You can install your plasmoid: plasmapkg --install plasmoid-qml
plasmoidviewer
You can run it in plasmoidviewer as usual: plasmoidviewer plasmoid-qml
qmlviewer
And you can run it in qmlviewer: qmlviewer -I /usr/lib/kde4/imports/ plasmoid-qml/contents/qml/main.qml
Where the -I is the path to the plasma plugin for qml. Try to look for the path of /usr/lib/kde4/imports/org/kde/plasma/graphicswidgets/libgraphicswidgetsbindingsplugin.so and use everything up to org of that path.
