Use QVariantMap as model for TableView

kimcheetos

Is it possible to use QVariantMap from C++ as a model for a TableView in QML?
Basically what I want is the keys from a QVariantMap on one column, and their associated values on another column.
Thanks!

@kimcheetos There is no easy way. Only through QAbstractItemModel(or other model class) subclassing.

You can try doing something like follows.

QList<QObject*> dataList;
dataList.append(new DataObject("Item 1", "red"));
dataList.append(new DataObject("Item 2", "green"));
dataList.append(new DataObject("Item 3", "blue"));
dataList.append(new DataObject("Item 4", "yellow"));

QQmlApplicationEngine engine;

QQmlContext *ctxt = engine.rootContext();
ctxt->setContextProperty("myModel", QVariant::fromValue(dataList));

colour and name are Q_PROPERTY defined in DataObject.

TableView {
    TableViewColumn {
        role: "color"
        title: "Title"
        width: 100
    }
    TableViewColumn {
        role: "name"
        title: "Author"
        width: 200
    }
    model: myModel
}
