I once banned a user for scat porn, so you can say… I've seen some shit

It seems networkStatus
doesn't provide a connectivity
attribute and PlasmaNM.NetworkManager
doesn't have a Full
either:
undefined
console.log(Object.keys(networkStatus)) qml: [objectName,activeConnections,networkStatus,objectNameChanged,activeConnectionsChanged,networkStatusChanged]
undefined
networkStatus.connectivity !== PlasmaNM.NetworkManager.Full .../contents/ui/main.qml:150: TypeError: Cannot read property 'Full' of undefined

that would be ideal! but I can't seem to find a way to do it natively without some C++ library like this one?

How to get network status in QML?
I wrote an applet that makes an API call every 10 minutes, but I want it to show a message if the computer is offline. This means I need to get the network status within QML. I thought a DataEngine might be available, but there isn't.
I read the code for plasma-nm and found this solution hack:
undefined
import org.kde.plasma.networkmanagement 0.2 as PlasmaNM PlasmaNM.NetworkStatus { id: networkStatus } PlasmaComponents3.Label { visible: networkStatus.networkStatus != "Connected" text: i18n("Network disconnected") }
But I think comparing strings is a terrible way because I don't know what will happen in other locales.
Is there a better way?

utab: New Tab, but better
I started this project a few weeks ago for my transition from Firefox to Falkon, and I've been using it ever since. It's a daemon running on a local port for all web browsers to access. It now provides two features: Top Sites, inspired by Firefox's new tab, and a search bar with customizable engines, inspired by DDG's bangs (but it's a slash instead of a bang, to save you a shift press).
Check out the source code (0BSD): utab
utab is almost definitely not what you exactly wanted, given its intentionally limited config options and features, but given the power of free software anyone can build upon it themselves.
Also, it is 100% JavaScript-free.
