Use embedded resources like images

(I know this is mostly self-help forum, but I will try to find solutions and post here for future reference to someone else once I find it out)

I noticed I can use tray icons, but I haven't figured out yet how to embed the image file:

import Qt.labs.platform

ApplicationWindow {
    SystemTrayIcon {
        visible: true
        icon.source: "qrc:/todos/tray-icon.png"

        onActivated: {
            todoModel.show()
        }
    }

But how do I get the icon to the package?

(Secondly I couldn't figure out yet how to hide or show the window)

Tray icons are one of the most cursed topics, especially on Linux desktop. Good luck with that though!

But how do I get the icon to the package?

Depends on what "package" is in your setup, really

EDIT I got it working.

KDE seems to have a very good support though. And SystemTrayIcon does produce a tray icon placement (I can't figure out how to use the image resource).

Also with this https://github.com/iovxw/ksni/ I get icon, and context menu working, but it's not "QT way of doing it".

Oh geez, I tried incorrect way, it as simple as:

qrc!(my_resource,
    "todos/qml" {
        "main.qml",
    },
    "todos/icons" {
        "tray-icon.png",
    }
);
