Documentation

To use the ModelHelper, use it as an attached object of a model (it must be a subclass of a QAbstractItemModel, meaning it can originate from c++ or be a ListModel from QML).

Attached properties:

rowCount : int

This property holds the number of rows in the model.

count : int

This property holds the number of rows in the model. Alias for rowCount.

columnCount : int

This property holds the number of columns in the model.

roles : array

This property holds an array of objects describing the roles of the model. Each object has 2 properties: role, the number of the role; and roleName, the name of the role.

Attached methods:

object map(int row, int column = 0, QModelIndex parent = {})

int roleForName(string roleName)

Returns the role number for the given roleName. If no role is found for this name, -1 is returned.

var data(int row)

Return the item at row in the model as a map of all its roles.

var data(int row, string roleName)

Return the data for the given roleName of the item at row in the model.
