qml-livereload is really useful when develop the qml.
It's nice to integrate it.

Idea: like https://github.com/Sarcasm/irony-mode/blob/master/irony.el#L469 to install qml-livereload and build on system.

calling qml-mode on emacs+ (OS X) causes

Hello ! The new release is a great news, I was somehow disappointed with the previous version, especially when it comes to indentation, I am eager to try out this new release as soon as it is available on Melpa. Moreover, using define-derived-mode is really the way to go.

For the record, I started the implementation of a per layer plugins.qmltypes parser, which generates the exhaustive list of components, attributes, functions, signals and enums for all Qml layers available for a given Qt distribution. The repository is jwintz/qompany, and will provide three binaries: a mode generator, and completion engine for company, and a linter for flycheck.

So far, the generated mode looks like this. I am absolutely not satisfied with this generated mode, as I had to split the regular expressions into layers so that the jit compiler does not fail.

I however wonder if there is something that can be merged at some point, a trade off between using generic regular expression and the exact list (and regexp-opt) of items ...
