qt_target_qml_from_lottie
Generates QML code based on an Lottie file.
The command is defined in the LottieTools
component of the Qt6
package, which can be loaded like this:
find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS LottieTools)
This command was introduced in Qt 6.11.
Synopsis
qt_target_qml_from_lottie(target [CURVE_RENDERER] [OPTIMIZE_PATHS] [OUTLINE_STROKE_MODE] [TYPE_NAME "MyShapeName"] [COPYRIGHT_STATEMENT "Copyright © Company1"] FILES file1.json [file2.json ...] OUTPUTS File1.qml [File2.qml ...] )
If versionless commands are disabled, use qt6_target_qml_from_lottie()
instead. It supports the same set of arguments as this command.
Example:
qt_target_qml_from_lottie(applottietoqmlexample CURVE_RENDERER OPTIMIZE_PATHS FILES original/FingerprintIcon.json original/GoogleIcons.json original/HappyStar.json original/HeartMedical.json original/SurprisedBoy.json original/USAMapWithOutlines.json original/UserAuthentication.json original/UserInteractionAnimation.json original/UserInterface.json OUTPUTS generated/FingerprintIcon.qml generated/GoogleIcons.qml generated/HappyStar.qml generated/HeartMedical.qml generated/SurprisedBoy.qml generated/USAMapWithOutlines.qml generated/UserAuthentication.qml generated/UserInteractionAnimation.qml generated/UserInterface.qml )
Description
qt_target_qml_from_lottie() creates the build steps to run lottietoqml on the list of Lottie images in FILES
. The names of the generated files should be specified in OUTPUTS
. The length of this list must be the same as FILES
, and the first element corresponds to the first element in FILES
and so forth. The names provided in OUTPUTS
will be the names of the QML types as they appear in the module. These can in turn be instantiated in the application code.
The generated QML files will be added to the QML module of target
. You must use qt_add_qml_module() to define a module for the target
first.
Optionally, a COPYRIGHT_STATEMENT
argument can be provided to insert copyright information into the generated files.
Note: Certain characters must be escaped for command line use or you may see build errors on some platforms.
TYPE_NAME
is also optional, and can be used to replace all instances of the Shape type in the generated file with a custom type. This can be useful to make general customizations to all the shapes in the provided Lottie files. The TYPE_NAME
should refer to a QML type which is available in the target
QML module.
The options CURVE_RENDERER
, OPTIMIZE_PATHS
and OUTLINE_STROKE_MODE
correspond to the --curve-renderer
, --optimize-paths
and --outline-stroke-mode
in lottietoqml respectively.
