Hey guys,

I have published the first version of a data pass client that can be used with the telekom service to track data usage. It is available here: GitHub - conradhuebler/harbour-datapass: Monitor your Telekom data usage on Sailfish OS even with a rpm package (uploaded from my own tests using sailfish sdk)
Release First Release · conradhuebler/harbour-datapass · GitHub

The code is mainly AI generated :slight_smile: as is the icon

PS:
But I don’t understand why I can lauch the app from the console using
sailfish-qml harbour-datapass
but not from the launcher.

Because the Exec line in your .desktop file will cause launcher to try to execute a binary called harbour-datapass which does not exist.

Either write an application which compiles to a binary of that name, or change the Exec line to:

/usr/bin/invoker --type=silica-qt5 /usr/bin/sailfish-qml harbour-datapass

Yes, indeed. But I went back to
/usr/bin/sailfish-qml harbour-datapass
which used to be there before editing.
The AI just replaced the line - (really :wink: ). I uploaded the updated package

Is there an important difference if I use the /usr/bin/invoker approach?

AFAIK Sailjail doesn’t use the X-Nemo-Foo keys.

Using invoker you can specify things like type or single-instance or any of its command line options.

If you don’t need them I guess sailfish-qml is fine.
