Passing non-primitive types to template #54

Open kieraneglin opened 7 years ago

kieraneglin commented 7 years ago

Disclaimer: completely new to Rust and QML.

I want to be able to return a Vec<CustomType> and be able to iterate over the vector from within my QML template. For instance, I fetch a vector of User's from a DB. How can I pass this vector to my QML template?

I've tried passing an array of primitives without luck. What's the idiomatic way to handle this?

Thank you!

qmlrs is without a single commit since over a year, try this one here as an alternative: https://github.com/White-Oak/qml-rust

There is even a further developed version of this one here: https://github.com/flanfly/qmlrs

And here is a binding for some other crates: https://github.com/rust-qt/cpp_to_rust

@ShalokShalom if you suggest people using alternatives, why not officialy deprecate/orphan the package at crates.io?

I'm not maintaining my qmlrs fork anymore. At Panopticon we ultimately settled on writing our own Qt wrapper. Before going down that route you may want to take a look at qml-rust.
