How to use userdefine model in qml treeview?

The reference demo is like this:

TreeView {
    TableViewColumn {
        title: "Name"
        role: "fileName"
        width: 300
    }
    TableViewColumn {
        title: "Permissions"
        role: "filePermissions"
        width: 100
    }
    model: fileSystemModel
}

I want to change the fileSystemModel to my self-defined model. How I should do this? Thanks.

You can export your model the same way the example is exporting "fileSystemModel".

Basically the steps are

  1. Create an instance of your model
  2. Set your instance as a context property on the engine's root context
  3. Load main QML file

Example assuming a locally defined QQuickView view but QQuickWindow or QQmlApplicationEngine would result in very similar code:

MyModel model;
view.engine()->rootContext()->setContextProperty("_identifierForModel", &model);

The first argument of setContextProperty() is the name that is visible on the QML side, i.e. it works like the value if an "id" property in QML.
