A Wt MVC Model to view/edit query results.
The model fetches results from the query and presents the data in a table. It supports sorting the underlying SQL query using Query::orderBy().
The default implementation of data() converts Query results to model data using query_result_traits<Result>::getValues(). You may define your own data presentation using the underlying Result
by specializing data() and accessing data from resultRow().
You may selectively add fields that you want to display using addColumn(), or you can also add all columns based on the query using addAllFieldsAsColumns().
The model supports editing of the underlying data (even if the underlying query fetches results from multiple tables!). Values in columns that correspond to fields that have been mapped (and are writable) in a Database Object can be edited. The default implementation of setData() uses query_result_traits<Result>::setValue() to manipulate the database object, and thus uses the same write-behind properties as ptr<C>::modify(). To customize editing, you can specialize setData() and use resultRow() to modify the result object directly.
The model supports also inserting rows (only at the end), and removing rows, which are reflected in object additions and removals from the Session.
Editing is directly to the underlying database objects (change, insert and remove). Note that these changes will be flushed to the database whenever a transaction is committed, or before a query is run. The model will not explicitly create a transaction for the modification, but since the model uses a query for reading data, the change may be committed to the database depending on how the model is loading data. Still, this implies that usually inserting a row and setting its data happens within a single SQL "insert"
statement.
Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::QueryModel | ( | WObject * | parent = 0 ) |
Creates a new query model.
You need to seed the model with a query using setQuery().
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::addAllFieldsAsColumns | ( | ) |
Adds all the columns from the field list.
All fields are added as columns. Fields that are mutable are marked as editable columns.
This is a convenient alternative to selectively adding columns using addColumn().
int Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::addColumn | ( | const std::string & | field, |
const WString & | header, | ||
WFlags< ItemFlag > | flags = ItemIsSelectable |
||
) |
Adds a column.
The field
name may be a qualified or unqualified field name. The list of available fields can be inspected using fields().
The header
is used as Wt::DisplayRole for the column header data.
For the column items, flags() will returned the given flags
. For example, to indicate that a field is editable, you can set the Wt::ItemIsEditable flag.
int Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::addColumn | ( | const std::string & | field, |
WFlags< ItemFlag > | flags = ItemIsSelectable |
||
) |
Adds a column.
This is an overloaded function for convenience, which uses the field name as the header value.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::addRow | ( | Result & | result ) | [protected, virtual] |
Adds a row to the session.
This method is called from within insertRows() to add (and save) a new result row to the Dbo session.
The default implementation uses query_result_traits<Result>::add().
int Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::batchSize | ( | ) | const |
Returns the batch size for fetching results.
int Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::columnCount | ( | const WModelIndex & | parent = WModelIndex() ) |
const [virtual] |
Returns the number of columns.
Returns the number of columns that have been added using addColumn() or addAllFieldsAsColumns().
Since the query model implements a flat table model, this returns 0 when parent
is valid.
Implements Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
WFlags< ItemFlag > Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::columnFlags | ( | int | column ) | const |
Returns column item flags.
Result Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::createRow | ( | ) | [protected, virtual] |
Creates a new row.
This method is called from within insertRows() to create a new row.
The default implementation uses query_result_traits<Result>::create().
boost::any Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::data | ( | const WModelIndex & | index, |
int | role = DisplayRole |
||
) | const [virtual] |
Returns the data for an item.
Returns data of type Wt::DisplayRole or Wt::EditRole based on the field value corresponding to the index. If necessary, this fetches a batch of results from the underlying database.
Implements Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::deleteRow | ( | Result & | result ) | [protected, virtual] |
Deletes a row from the session.
This method is called from within removeRows() to remove (and delete) a new result row from the Dbo session.
The default implementation uses query_result_traits<Result>::remove().
const std::vector< FieldInfo > & Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::fields | ( | ) | const |
Returns the query field list.
This returns the field list from the underlying query.
WFlags< ItemFlag > Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::flags | ( | const WModelIndex & | index ) | const [virtual] |
Returns the flags for an item.
Returns the flags set for the column using setColumnFlags().
Reimplemented from Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
boost::any Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::headerData | ( | int | section, |
Orientation | orientation = Horizontal , |
||
int | role = DisplayRole |
||
) | const [virtual] |
bool Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::insertRows | ( | int | row, |
int | count, | ||
const WModelIndex & | parent = WModelIndex() |
||
) | [virtual] |
Inserts one or more rows.
Row insertions are only supported at the end (row
== rowCount()). For each added row, a new result is added to the underlying database.
Reimplemented from Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
const Query<Result>& Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::query | ( | ) | const |
Returns the query.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::reload | ( | ) |
Rereads the data from the database.
This invalidates the current (cached) data and informs views that they should rerender.
The model keeps the following data cached:
bool Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::removeRows | ( | int | row, |
int | count, | ||
const WModelIndex & | parent = WModelIndex() |
||
) | [virtual] |
Removes one or more rows.
For each removed row, the result is removed from the underlying database.
Reimplemented from Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
const Result & Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::resultRow | ( | int | row ) | const |
Returns a result row.
This returns the result corresponding to a particular row, and could be used to customize the model behaviour, e.g. by specializing data() for certain columns.
Returns a const reference to an entry in the result cache.
Result & Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::resultRow | ( | int | row ) |
Returns a result row.
This returns the result corresponding to a particular row, and could be used to customize the model behaviour, e.g. by specializing setData() for certain columns.
Returns a reference to an entry in the result cache.
int Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::rowCount | ( | const WModelIndex & | parent = WModelIndex() ) |
const [virtual] |
Returns the number of rows.
Returns the number of rows return from the underlying query.
Since the query model implements a flat table model, this returns 0 when parent
is valid.
Implements Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::setBatchSize | ( | int | count ) |
Sets the batch size for fetching results.
The model fetches results from the query in batch, and caches these in memory to avoid repetitive querying of the database.
The default batch size is 40.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::setColumnFlags | ( | int | column, |
WFlags< ItemFlag > | flags | ||
) |
Sets column item flags.
For items in column column
, flags() will returned the given flags
. For example, to indicate that a field is editable, you can set the Wt::ItemIsEditable flag.
bool Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::setData | ( | const WModelIndex & | index, |
const boost::any & | value, | ||
int | role = EditRole |
||
) | [virtual] |
Sets data at the given model index.
If role
= Wt::EditRole, sets the value for the field corresponding to the index. All other editing is ignored.
Reimplemented from Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
bool Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::setHeaderData | ( | int | column, |
Orientation | orientation, | ||
const boost::any & | value, | ||
int | role = EditRole |
||
) | [virtual] |
Sets header data for a column.
The model will return this data in headerData(). Only column headers are supported (orientation == Wt::Horizontal).
Reimplemented from Wt::WAbstractItemModel.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::setQuery | ( | const Query< Result > & | query, |
bool | keepColumns = false |
||
) |
Sets the query.
The query
is used to query the database.
Unless keepColumns
is true
, this resets the column list, so you will need to (re-)add one or more columns using addColumn().
When keeping the current columns, a LayoutChange rather than a Reset is emitted by the model, allowing views to keep their column geometry as well.
void Wt::Dbo::QueryModel< Result >::sort | ( | int | column, |
SortOrder | order = AscendingOrder |
||
) | [virtual] |
Sorts the model according to a particular column.
This sorts the model by changing the query using Query<BindStrategy>::orderBy().
