Using QPair in struct

[Kris Revi]

so in python i have this struct

        self.pattern = {
            'SOLIDCOLOR':{'hightlightButton':[1, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_SOLIDCOLOR'], 'setDefaults':[0, 2],  'EnableFeatures':[True, False, False, True, True, True, True, True],  'selectedPattern':1},
            'RAINBOW':{'hightlightButton':[2, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_RAINBOW'], 'setDefaults':[25, 2],  'EnableFeatures':[True, True, False, False, False, False, True, False],  'selectedPattern':2},
            'THEATERCHASE':{'hightlightButton':[3, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_THEATERCHASE'], 'setDefaults':[127, 3],  'EnableFeatures':[True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True],  'selectedPattern':3},
            'JUGGLE':{'hightlightButton':[4, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_JUGGLE'], 'setDefaults':[0, 2],  'EnableFeatures':[True, False, False, False, False, False, True, False],  'selectedPattern':4},
            'RUNNINGLIGHT':{'hightlightButton':[5, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_RUNNINGLIGHTS'], 'setDefaults':[25, 10],  'EnableFeatures':[True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True],  'selectedPattern':5},
            'CYLON':{'hightlightButton':[6, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_CYLON'], 'setDefaults':[50, 2],  'EnableFeatures':[True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True],  'selectedPattern':6},
            'MITOSIS':{'hightlightButton':[7, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_MITOSIS'], 'setDefaults':[50, 199],  'EnableFeatures':[True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True],  'selectedPattern':7},
        }

and in Qt i've come up with this with a bit of help

struct Pattern
{
    QPair<int, QString> hightlightButton;
    QPair<int, int> setDefaults;
    QVector<bool> enableFeatures;
    int selectedPattern;
};

but im unsure how to insert this line

[1, 'BUTTON_PATTERN_SOLIDCOLOR']

into

    QMap<QString, Pattern> pattern;
    pattern.insert("SOLIDCOLOR", Pattern{});

Since it seems a bit complicated to keep an overview over all these mapped values, arrays and strings, I would change your struct to a class (unless there is some reason, why you can't do that). But depends on you, how you want to handle your data.

Your pattern seems to be json, so why don't you simply use QJsonObject / QJsonArray?
