Description:

Is a plasma runner that searches in Chromium/Chrome's bookmarks. Ideal for all kde users that surf the net with Chrome/Chromium that now is a little more integrated with KDE.

NOTE: If you are manually upgrading from version 0.1 to 0.2 remember to remove first old one (in particular remove:
/usr/share/kde4/services/browsechromiumbookmarks.desktop
/usr/share/kde4/services/browsechromiumbookmarks_config.desktop

replace /usr/share/kde4 with /usr/share/kde if the case)

Kubuntu 13.04. KDE 4.10.2
I had to install gettext and libqjson-dev to compile it. No problems.
I get an error, however, on make install:

[email protected]:~/sda3/SYSTEM/SOFT/KDE/plasma-runner-browsechromiumbookmarks/build$ sudo make install
Error: syntax error in /home/darwin/sda3/SYSTEM/SOFT/KDE/plasma-runner-browsechromiumbookmarks/build/kcm_krunner_browsechromiumbookmarks_automoc.cpp.files

Thank you for this contribution, really ... this is appreciated. I spoke of this application in my blog focused on KDE:

1) Could use better documentation of dependencies (which include a recent version of qjson from the project's git repo).

2) Would be nice to configure where to have it look for bookmarks. I use a build of the Chromium dev branch which stores its configuration files in a different directory from the default location (so that it can be installed alongside the production version). In the meantime, I just created a symlink for ~/.config/chromium to point to that directory.

1) The error is in CMakeLists.txt, where the line

find_package(QJson REQUIRED)

Should be

find_package(QJSON REQUIRED)

Yep, caught your comment on the Arch Linux AUR.

Thanks! I've been waiting for something like this and was considering teaching myself how to use cmake, et al. to write something like it.

Hi,
I have successfully compiled and installed the plugin, and I ran kbuildsycoca4 and restarted krunner. The plugin shows up in krunners list of plugins, but doesn't seem to work. Am I doing anything wrong?

Dunno why but the server cuts the extension;
the working link is
http://kde-apps.org/CONTENT/content-files/137685-plasma-runner-browsechromiumbookmarks-0.1.tar.bz2

ok, solved; seems that the package file name was too long (but no warning during upload?); now have renamed it so no more problems.

Ok downloaded but does not work.
I've extrat the archive,
mkdir build,
cd build
cmake ..
checkinstall

no errors but I've killed krunner and relaunched but when I search a chromium bookmarks I find nothing and in krunner plugins I don't view your plugin.

What did I do wrong?

bye

Try these steps:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix`
make
checkinstall

if checkinstall fails try a simple `make install`
