console.log() to TextArea

[tacdin]

Hi, I wrote a code that opens csv files with FileDialog and converts them to JSON. I sum the values ​​I want for each TimeStamp in the CSV file and print them to the console. In the function openFile() you can see the values ​​I send to the console. However, I cannot print the values ​​I have printed on the console to a TextArea or Label. I would be glad if you can help with this.

You need to construct a string containing the information you want (the information you currently output with console.log) and assign to the the TextArea's text property.

What have you tried so far?

[tacdin]

Even though I created the array, I couldn't access the array elements in Text. @Bob64

[Bob64]

@tacdin Can you show what you were trying to do?

[tacdin]

@Bob64

 if (request.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
                       let controlObject = getControl();
                       controlObject.data = parser(request.responseText);
                       let items= []
                       items.push(controlObject.getTotalBataryCount(), controlObject.getAltitudeCountHigh(), controlObject.getTotalFlighttime())
                             console.log("test", items)
                            console.log(controlObject.getTotalBataryCount());
                            console.log(controlObject.getAltitudeCountHigh());
                            console.log(controlObject.getTotalFlighttime());
                       resolve(data);
                   }

Frankly I don't know how to access an array and array elements inside the function for QML object. I would be glad if you taught me this.

[Bob64]

@tacdin Are you wanting to display the data in some sort of list? You probably need to look at ListView and use the data to populate a ListModel.

[tacdin]

@Bob64 Yes it can be a list, or it can also be a rectangle (on a textarea) in a columnlayout. My problem is that I don't know how to display the elements in an array defined in the function in the Text area. If I can find an example, I can try from there.

[Bob64]

@tacdin OK, here's a basic example of ListView and ListModel. Note that I have just copied your layout code for what is shown in the list.

The import version numbers are correct for 5.9.6 which is what I use at the moment. You may want to adjust for more modern Qt versions.

import QtQuick 2.7
import QtQuick.Controls 2.2
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.3

Window {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    title: qsTr("Hello World")

    ListModel {
        id: myModel

        ListElement {
            flightTime: "10.0"
            battConsump: "5"
            dist: "500"
            altitude: "10000"
        }

    }
    
    ListView {
        width: 150
        height: 600

        model: myModel

        delegate: ColumnLayout {
            visible:true
            spacing: 4

            Rectangle{
                id: flighttimerect
                width: 100
                height:100
                Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignCenter
                color: "grey"
                TextArea{
                    id: flighttimerect1
                    color: "black"
                    text: flightTime
                }

            }

            Rectangle {
                id: batteryconsumptrect
                width:100
                height:100
                Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignHCenter
                color: "grey"

                TextArea{
                    id:batteryconsumptvalue
                    text: battConsump
                }
            }

            Rectangle {
                id: flightdistance
                width:100
                height:100
                Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignCenter
                color: "grey"
                TextArea{
                    id:distancetext
                    text:  dist
                }
            }

            Rectangle {
                id: altituderect
                width:100
                height:100
                Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignCenter
                color: "grey"
                TextArea{
                    id:altitudetext
                    text: altitude
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Here the model just contains one item. If I added another item to the model it would show as another item group in the list view.

This is just a hard-coded model to get going with. I recommend that you use this approach to get started with your UI. You want to separate how you obtain your data from how you display it. The model-view split is a good way to achieve this.

As for tying this to your actual data, as an alternative to hard-coding ListElements in your model, it is possible to programmatically append to a model. So you might declare an empty model and then have a function that pushes data into it:

        ListModel {
            id: myModel
        }
        ....

        function updateModel(controlObject) {
            myModel.append({"flightTime": controlObject.getTotalFlightTime().toString(), 
                            "battConsump": controlObject.getTotalBataryCount().toString(),
                            ...etc
                           })
        }

Note that I store strings in the model itself. You could store the numbers and do the string conversion in your ListModel delegate. It's up to you.

Thanks for your suggestion. I think I understand. I tried as you said but got an error. I can't figure out what I missed. Thanks a lot for your help.

@tacdin what is the error?

In any case, I can't see where you call updateModel. You need to do this from somewhere to populate the model from your data.

@Bob64 Sorry, just noticed your answer, sorry for that. I think I solved the problem thanks to your help. However, I ran into other problems. I opened another post for this. Thank you for your help. I can mark this post as solved. :)
