Using models with C++ about qtrest

[kafeg]

Hi!

Function

void BaseRestListModel::fetchDetail(QString id)

works only with already cached data.

E.g. in your list model loaded 1000 items. 0-999 items may be load details, but 1000+ not.

Yoe are right, for 1 item, need to use Api class directly. List models must be used with QListView or other *view classes, or you may call fetchMore for load all needs items to model and than load details info for them.

Thanks!

Can you post an example of how to use CustomModel from within C++?
(We miss the whole point of representing Rest objects as objects if we use API directly)

I did tried to to add MyApi (derivative of APIBase) to JsonRestListModel and call "reload" afterwards - it does seem to load something, but how to access the properties properly?

Did you see example project? https://github.com/kafeg/qtrest-example

Files you needed api/models/couponmodel.h and api/models/couponmodel.cpp

Yep, I seen how to implement a model, just asking how to use it properly from within C++

Use it as standard Qt models:
