Best way to use string in QML loaded from JSON

[Mark81]

I'm working with Qt5.9.2 under Linux. My application reads a JSON file that contains an array of strings and put them into a QStringList. I also have an enum to easily retrieve the desired one. Example:

text.json

{
	"TEXTS": [
            "Hello World!",
            "blablabla"
	]
}

myclass.cpp

enum Texts
{
    HelloWorld,
    BlaBlaBla
};

QStringList _texts;
// load strings to _texts

_texts[HelloWorld]; // access to a string

Now I need to use those strings in QML pages instead of hardcoded ones:

Text {
    color: "#f1f5f5"
    text: "Hello World!"
}

My first thought is to create a Q_INVOKABLE function to retrieve the string on the fly. Something like:

Text {
    color: "#f1f5f5"
    text: loadString(MyNamespace.HelloWorld);
}

but it requires to expose an enum to QML and I'm not sure if it's the best way. Any other idea?

why does it require an enum? Only if you design it that way. You could also pass a string?
