||
Created attachment 133771 [details] Screenshot of a plasmoid witch is able to show a chinese lunar calendar under the main calendar. Seems I uploaded a outdated screenshot which contains some noticeable bug. I'll upload another one. I think at least it should be able to demonstrate what I means :D Also, my code is uploaded here: https://github.com/BLumia/pineapple-calendar Obviously it's far from complete but hopefully it could be useful in some way. It make use of icu4c to display Chinese calendar, since ICU itself support a large amount of calendar system, it could support other calendar system when needed, I think. There was a GSoC project which related to this feature request: https://community.kde.org/KDE_Core/Astronomical_Calendars Hope that helps. I see a few possible options, but I'm not familiar enough with different calendar systems and how they are used to judge what is best. 1. Create a plugin for the existing event plugin system. This could show entries from the alternate calendar as events in the gregorian calendar. Relatively easy to do, but probably not very nice 2. Create a new plugin system that allows to draw overlay labels over the gregorian calendar. That could look like in your screenshot. 3. Create a new applet as alternative to the current one. This could reuse parts of the underlying system, e.g. the events plugin system. That would have the biggest flexibility in terms of presentation > ...but I'm not familiar enough with different calendar systems and how they are used to judge what is best. Me too! So I think it could be good to discuss with more people so we can know more about how alternate calendar system works before we start to code an implementation into KDE. I'll write what I think at the end of this comment :D > 1. Create a plugin for the existing event plugin system. This could show entries from the alternate calendar as events in the gregorian calendar. Relatively easy to do, but probably not very nice Yep that's easy to do but clearly not a good way to address the alternate calendar need. > 2. Create a new plugin system that allows to draw overlay labels over the gregorian calendar. That could look like in your screenshot. That could solve the problem but this solution seems too generic/wide. Alternate calendar is not a vary specialization need in Mainland China (In Google Calendar android app, the alternate calendar option have 9 options to choose alone with a "none" option), so I think maybe a plugin system design to add alternate calendar support could be great, and other project like calindori can also get benefit from the plugin system or API design. > 3. Create a new applet as alternative to the current one. This could reuse parts of the underlying system, e.g. the events plugin system. That would have the biggest flexibility in terms of presentation That's what I'm doing currently (mainly for test the feasibility of the API design of what I am thinking), but I think since "adding a place to display alternate calendar date text" is a pretty minor change from the current Date and Time plugin, writing a new applet will not be a good way to do if we intended to get this feature into KDE. -------------- The alternate calendar means we can display two calendar system at the same time. The basic layout of a month view with alternate calendar enable will be the same as the one if we don't have alternate calendar enabled, but if alternate calendar is enabled, the date text will be able to show up in the day grid (just like the way what my screenshot did). According to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/display-an-alternate-calendar-8cb201d4-c175-4d9e-9d8f-b4df00ca8f82 , the alternate calendar feature are enabled if the language are set to Arabic, English, Hebrew, Hindi, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, or Thai. Also in Google Clander app, there are also 9 options can be used as an alternate calendar. Also, both Google Calendar and the one from Microsoft are not treat alternate calendar as regular calendar event, so I think reuse the existing event plugin system is not a good idea. For what I think, we could make the current Date and Time applet display alternate calendar day text in the same grid together with the main calendar date text if an alternate calendar system is available and enabled, and keep it looks exact the same like the current one if no alternate calendar is enabled. At the current state, we only need to change DayDelegate.qml and add adjust the behavior of last Components.Label{}. What I did is https://github.com/BLumia/pineapple-calendar/blob/7fc57a470fecad57d07a79d02e54a6e2febea4e2/plasmoid/package/contents/ui/calendar/DayDelegate.qml#L103 but I'm not sure if that's a good approach. In my current implementation, only one c++ interface are used https://github.com/BLumia/pineapple-calendar/blob/7fc57a470fecad57d07a79d02e54a6e2febea4e2/plasmoid/calendar.cpp#L24 . The `alternateCalendarDayText(day, month, year)` accepts a date in current main calendar, and returns the string which should be display under the day grid according to what the (currently hard-coded) alternate calendar is used. But I think the biggest challenge here is design a good C++ API for alternate calendar plugins. Since the main goal is letting an existed calendar application know what text to display under the main calendar's date name, so I guess we don't need to design a list of interface to provide full capability of calendar system date and time calculating. Here (https://github.com/BLumia/pineapple-calendar/blob/master/lib/pabstructcalendar.h) are a list of interface I have tried in my current implementation, there are still some other thing not covered in this current implementation, I'll do some more resources and write more about what I think about the API design later.

The Calendar System Feature unforgotten back in KDE Version 4
I filed this on its own: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472750 With »KDE4« and »Plasma4« the Calendar System could be easily switched within the settings of the Clock Combined Calendar Widgets: Gregorian, Hebrew, Mohammedian, Indian, Chinese, Julian, Japanese, etc. For each of several Clock Combined Calendar Widgets, any Calendar System could be set, which could be used in the same Panel or on the same Virtual Desktop side by side. See screenshots. Since »Plasma« Version 5 the Configuration and Integration of the Module »Date and Time« into the »Plasma« Desktop Environment has changed, along with the »Plasma« Clock Combined Calendar Widgets. From »Plasma« Desktop Environment Version 5 on there is no option anymore to use any alternate Calender System at all, if not by Installing a Localized Edition of a Distribution, apparently and probably so in »OpenSuse« and »Knoppix«. Considering the settings with the KDE3 Fork Desktop Environment Trinity, the Calendar System was already switchable with Version 3 of KDE. Why was the old code abandoned? There are recently calls and efforts to rewrite this feature, notably for an integration of Arabic Calendars: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=429892 https://community.kde.org/KDE_Core/Astronomical_Calendars Calendar System Feature gone for instance in: Linux/KDE Plasma: OpenSuse 15.4 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Calendar System Feature still exists for instance in: Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 14.04.6 (available in About System) KDElibs Version: 4.13.3 Qt Version: 4.8.6 And even more importantly: why was the old code forgotten? Because it was a custom thing that only applied to KDE apps and did not take effect anywhere else on the system or in any non-KDE apps. That powerful but not-very-compatible system was abandoned in favor of the more limited functionality provided by Qt, which applies systemwide, to all apps. Whether this was the best decision is up for interpretation, and reasonable people can disagree on the matter. |
Created attachment 133768 [details] Screenshot of a plasmoid witch is able to show a chinese lunar calendar under the main calendar. SUMMARY Right now the plasma calendar component (built-in date and time plasmoid) doesn't seems to support setting an alternate calendar system to make it display under the main calendar, it could be helpful if user can set an alternate calendar when needed. By looking at the current implementation, it doesn't support alternate calendar whatever directly or by writing a plugin in the "event plugin" similar way. I suggest adding a plugin interface for alternate calendar and optionally provide some first-party alternate calendar plugin to use. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Archlinux (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I did wrote a plasmoid based on the existed calendar QML code from plasma-framework repo and made some change to make it able to display Chinese Lunar calendar (a luni-solar calendar system), see the attachment for a screenshot of my current implementation, and the source code can be provided if needed. I'm new to QML and plasmoid development and it may need some time to make a proper patch. The code quality is way to far from get into KDE, but hopefully it can demonstrate what the feature looks like. I'm also would like to help KDE implement this feature (if that's acceptable). Let me know if you need any additional information. Thanks! Gary
