I keep getting TypeError: 'list' object is not callable while implementing delegate setEditorData

[blossomsg]

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\All_Projs\Qt_Designer_Proj\table_view_with_delegates_for_different_column\tableview_delegate\tabledelegate.py", line 28, in setEditorData
value = index.model().data(index, QtCore.Qt.EditRole)
TypeError: 'list' object is not callable

The editor Loads fine, but as soon as i double click the modelindex(any cell in the table view) it crashes
i referred
https://github.com/baoboa/pyqt5/blob/master/examples/itemviews/spinboxdelegate.py
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-itemviews-spinboxdelegate-example.html

if i implement only createEditor it works fine.

is it because i am setting list in model i am getting the TypeError? -- self.data_column.insert(position, [])

@blossomsg The problem is that the attribute self.data = [] is hiding the method def data(self, index=QtCore.QModelIndex, role=QtCore.Qt.DisplayRole):. Solution changes self.data = [] to self._data = []

@blossomsg
You do not say, but I assume you insert some row(s) after __init__() and before editing.

Start by sorting out your override of insertRow(), which is wrong, and if being called may be the cause of your error message. You attempt to add self.table_rows_count new rows, which is quite incorrect. Either make it pass 1 for that instead, or remove your override completely (recommended), since the base definition will call your insertRows() correctly for you. Exactly the same applies to your definition of insertColumn().

Does this perchance resolve your issue?

UPDATE
@eyllanesc has noticed your naming clash (good spot! one of the nasty gotchas in Python), which does indeed need changing, and would cause the text of the error you see. However, you will also need to make the changes I mentioned.

@eyllanesc
Thank You That fixed my above error
that means i am heading in the right direction.
Below is the new error. I tried int()

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\All_Projs\Qt_Designer_Proj\table_view_with_delegates_for_different_column\tableview_delegate\tabledelegate.py", line 29, in setEditorData
    editor.setValue(value)
TypeError: setValue(self, int): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'

Hey @JonB
but I assume you insert some row(s) after init() and before editing.
Sorry did not get you over here

I guess this what you are saying -- i should remove the insertRow and insertColumn altogether or just give 1 in row number
Start by sorting out your override of insertRow() - Either make it pass 1 or remove your override completely (recommended)

	def insertRow(self, position, index=QtCore.QModelIndex()):
		self.insertRows(position, 1, index)

So if i want to more number of cols and rows i should directly update in the model methods/function insertRow and insertColumn ?
I created an argument for convenience to edit from outside
What is the correct way?

[eyllanesc]

@blossomsg The explanation is simple: QSpinBox expects an integer but your model appears to be a list of strings causing the error. Correct for data type agreement. By example change to:

self.data.insert(position, [0, 0, 0, 0, 0])

I have really learnt alot
Thank you @eyllanesc
