How to set qml output directory for windeployqt

Question

I would like to use windeployqt.exe to deploy all required dll, plugins and qmls. windeployqt.exe provides options to copy dll to the directory specified by --libdir, copy plugins to --plugindir. But option --qmldir has a different purpose. It used for scanning for qml dependencies. By default qml files and binaries are copied to the application folder.

Is there any way to specify directory --qml-output-dir where qml files will be placed?

Answer 1

In windeployqt this is not possible.

But in an alternative cqtdeployer application i planed to add this feature.

Updated

@DarkSidds We have added the required functionality support to our utility. You can download and try here.

Using:

 %cqtdeployer% -bin path/to/bin.exe -qmake /path/to/qmake.exe -qmlDir path/to/your/qmlSource/Folder -qmlOut folderNameOfQmlOutputDir

-qmlOut - set the path to qml dependencies relative to the target directory

For example:

You are deploying the application to "/target/path". And your "qmlOut" is equal to "myQmlDep" then all qml dependencies are stored in "/target/path/ myQmlDep".

For more info see readme of utility
