## Detailed Description

QSortFilterProxyModel can be used for sorting items, filtering out items, or both. The model transforms the structure of a source model by mapping the model indexes it supplies to new indexes, corresponding to different locations, for views to use. This approach allows a given source model to be restructured as far as views are concerned without requiring any transformations on the underlying data, and without duplicating the data in memory.

Let's assume that we want to sort and filter the items provided by a custom model. The code to set up the model and the view, without sorting and filtering, would look like this:

             QTreeView *treeView = new QTreeView;
             MyItemModel *model = new MyItemModel(this);

             treeView->setModel(model);

To add sorting and filtering support to `MyItemModel`, we need to create a QSortFilterProxyModel, call setSourceModel() with the `MyItemModel` as argument, and install the QSortFilterProxyModel on the view:

             QTreeView *treeView = new QTreeView;
             MyItemModel *sourceModel = new MyItemModel(this);
             QSortFilterProxyModel *proxyModel = new QSortFilterProxyModel(this);

             proxyModel->setSourceModel(sourceModel);
             treeView->setModel(proxyModel);

At this point, neither sorting nor filtering is enabled; the original data is displayed in the view. Any changes made through the QSortFilterProxyModel are applied to the original model.

The QSortFilterProxyModel acts as a wrapper for the original model. If you need to convert source QModelIndexes to sorted/filtered model indexes or vice versa, use mapToSource(), mapFromSource(), mapSelectionToSource(), and mapSelectionFromSource().

Note: By default, the model dynamically re-sorts and re-filters data whenever the original model changes. This behavior can be changed by setting the dynamicSortFilter property.

The Basic Sort/Filter Model and Custom Sort/Filter Model examples illustrate how to use QSortFilterProxyModel to perform basic sorting and filtering and how to subclass it to implement custom behavior.

### Sorting

QTableView and QTreeView have a sortingEnabled property that controls whether the user can sort the view by clicking the view's horizontal header. For example:

             treeView->setSortingEnabled(true);

When this feature is on (the default is off), clicking on a header section sorts the items according to that column. By clicking repeatedly, the user can alternate between ascending and descending order.

Behind the scene, the view calls the sort() virtual function on the model to reorder the data in the model. To make your data sortable, you can either implement sort() in your model, or use a QSortFilterProxyModel to wrap your model – QSortFilterProxyModel provides a generic sort() reimplementation that operates on the sortRole() (Qt::DisplayRole by default) of the items and that understands several data types, including `int`, QString, and QDateTime. For hierarchical models, sorting is applied recursively to all child items. String comparisons are case sensitive by default; this can be changed by setting the sortCaseSensitivity property.

Custom sorting behavior is achieved by subclassing QSortFilterProxyModel and reimplementing lessThan(), which is used to compare items. For example:

     bool MySortFilterProxyModel::lessThan(const QModelIndex &left,
                                           const QModelIndex &right) const
     {
         QVariant leftData = sourceModel()->data(left);
         QVariant rightData = sourceModel()->data(right);

         if (leftData.userType() == QMetaType::QDateTime) {
             return leftData.toDateTime() < rightData.toDateTime();
         } else {
             static const QRegularExpression emailPattern("[\\w\\.]*@[\\w\\.]*");

             QString leftString = leftData.toString();
             if (left.column() == 1) {
                 const QRegularExpressionMatch match = emailPattern.match(leftString);
                 if (match.hasMatch())
                     leftString = match.captured(0);
             }
             QString rightString = rightData.toString();
             if (right.column() == 1) {
                 const QRegularExpressionMatch match = emailPattern.match(rightString);
                 if (match.hasMatch())
                     rightString = match.captured(0);
             }

             return QString::localeAwareCompare(leftString, rightString) < 0;
         }
     }

(This code snippet comes from the Custom Sort/Filter Model example.)

An alternative approach to sorting is to disable sorting on the view and to impose a certain order to the user. This is done by explicitly calling sort() with the desired column and order as arguments on the QSortFilterProxyModel (or on the original model if it implements sort()). For example:

             proxyModel->sort(2, Qt::AscendingOrder);

QSortFilterProxyModel can be sorted by column -1, in which case it returns to the sort order of the underlying source model.

### Filtering

In addition to sorting, QSortFilterProxyModel can be used to hide items that do not match a certain filter. The filter is specified using a QRegularExpression object and is applied to the filterRole() (Qt::DisplayRole by default) of each item, for a given column. The QRegularExpression object can be used to match a regular expression, a wildcard pattern, or a fixed string. For example:

             proxyModel->setFilterRegularExpression(QRegularExpression("\.png", QRegularExpression::CaseInsensitiveOption));
             proxyModel->setFilterKeyColumn(1);

For hierarchical models, the filter is applied recursively to all children. If a parent item doesn't match the filter, none of its children will be shown.

A common use case is to let the user specify the filter regular expression, wildcard pattern, or fixed string in a QLineEdit and to connect the textChanged() signal to setFilterRegularExpression(), setFilterWildcard(), or setFilterFixedString() to reapply the filter.

Custom filtering behavior can be achieved by reimplementing the filterAcceptsRow() and filterAcceptsColumn() functions. For example (from the Custom Sort/Filter Model example), the following implementation ignores the filterKeyColumn property and performs filtering on columns 0, 1, and 2:

     bool MySortFilterProxyModel::filterAcceptsRow(int sourceRow,
                                                   const QModelIndex &sourceParent) const
     {
         QModelIndex index0 = sourceModel()->index(sourceRow, 0, sourceParent);
         QModelIndex index1 = sourceModel()->index(sourceRow, 1, sourceParent);
         QModelIndex index2 = sourceModel()->index(sourceRow, 2, sourceParent);

         return (sourceModel()->data(index0).toString().contains(filterRegularExpression())
                 || sourceModel()->data(index1).toString().contains(filterRegularExpression()))
                 && dateInRange(sourceModel()->data(index2).toDate());
     }

(This code snippet comes from the Custom Sort/Filter Model example.)

If you are working with large amounts of filtering and have to invoke invalidateFilter() repeatedly, using beginResetModel() / endResetModel() may be more efficient, depending on the implementation of your model. However, beginResetModel() / endResetModel() returns the proxy model to its original state, losing selection information, and will cause the proxy model to be repopulated.

### Subclassing

Since QAbstractProxyModel and its subclasses are derived from QAbstractItemModel, much of the same advice about subclassing normal models also applies to proxy models. In addition, it is worth noting that many of the default implementations of functions in this class are written so that they call the equivalent functions in the relevant source model. This simple proxying mechanism may need to be overridden for source models with more complex behavior; for example, if the source model provides a custom hasChildren() implementation, you should also provide one in the proxy model.

Note: Some general guidelines for subclassing models are available in the Model Subclassing Reference.

## Property Documentation

### `[bindable, since 6.0]` autoAcceptChildRows : bool

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

if true the proxy model will not filter out children of accepted rows, even if they themselves would be filtered out otherwise.

The default value is false.

This property was introduced in Qt 6.0.

See also recursiveFilteringEnabled and filterAcceptsRow().

### `[bindable]` dynamicSortFilter : bool

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds whether the proxy model is dynamically sorted and filtered whenever the contents of the source model change

Note that you should not update the source model through the proxy model when dynamicSortFilter is true. For instance, if you set the proxy model on a QComboBox, then using functions that update the model, e.g., addItem(), will not work as expected. An alternative is to set dynamicSortFilter to false and call sort() after adding items to the QComboBox.

The default value is true.

See also sortColumn().

### `[bindable]` filterCaseSensitivity : Qt::CaseSensitivity

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the case sensitivity of the QRegularExpression pattern used to filter the contents of the source model.

By default, the filter is case sensitive.

Note: Setting this property propagates the new case sensitivity to the filterRegularExpression property, and so breaks its binding. Likewise explicitly setting filterRegularExpression changes the current case sensitivity, thereby breaking its binding.

See also filterRegularExpression and sortCaseSensitivity.

### `[bindable]` filterKeyColumn : int

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the column where the key used to filter the contents of the source model is read from.

The default value is 0. If the value is -1, the keys will be read from all columns.

### `[bindable]` filterRegularExpression : QRegularExpression

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the QRegularExpression used to filter the contents of the source model

Setting this property through the QRegularExpression overload overwrites the current filterCaseSensitivity. By default, the QRegularExpression is an empty string matching all contents.

If no QRegularExpression or an empty string is set, everything in the source model will be accepted.

Note: Setting this property propagates the case sensitivity of the new regular expression to the filterCaseSensitivity property, and so breaks its binding. Likewise explicitly setting filterCaseSensitivity changes the case sensitivity of the current regular expression, thereby breaking its binding.

See also filterCaseSensitivity, setFilterWildcard(), and setFilterFixedString().

### `[bindable]` filterRole : int

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the item role that is used to query the source model's data when filtering items.

The default value is Qt::DisplayRole.

See also filterAcceptsRow().

### `[bindable]` isSortLocaleAware : bool

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the local aware setting used for comparing strings when sorting

By default, sorting is not local aware.

See also sortCaseSensitivity and lessThan().

### `[bindable]` recursiveFilteringEnabled : bool

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds whether the filter to be applied recursively on children, and for any matching child, its parents will be visible as well.

The default value is false.

See also autoAcceptChildRows and filterAcceptsRow().

### `[bindable]` sortCaseSensitivity : Qt::CaseSensitivity

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the case sensitivity setting used for comparing strings when sorting

By default, sorting is case sensitive.

See also filterCaseSensitivity and lessThan().

### `[bindable]` sortRole : int

Note: This property supports QProperty bindings.

This property holds the item role that is used to query the source model's data when sorting items.

The default value is Qt::DisplayRole.

See also lessThan().

See also invalidate(), invalidateFilter(), and invalidateColumnsFilter().

### `[virtual protected]` bool QSortFilterProxyModel::lessThan(const QModelIndex &source_left, const QModelIndex &source_right) const

Returns `true` if the value of the item referred to by the given index source_left is less than the value of the item referred to by the given index source_right, otherwise returns `false`.

This function is used as the < operator when sorting, and handles the following QVariant types:

- QMetaType::Int
- QMetaType::UInt
- QMetaType::LongLong
- QMetaType::ULongLong
- QMetaType::Float
- QMetaType::Double
- QMetaType::QChar
- QMetaType::QDate
- QMetaType::QTime
- QMetaType::QDateTime
- QMetaType::QString

Any other type will be converted to a QString using QVariant::toString().

Comparison of QStrings is case sensitive by default; this can be changed using the sortCaseSensitivity property.

By default, the Qt::DisplayRole associated with the QModelIndexes is used for comparisons. This can be changed by setting the sortRole property.

Note: The indices passed in correspond to the source model.

See also sortRole, sortCaseSensitivity, and dynamicSortFilter.

### `[slot]` void QSortFilterProxyModel::setFilterFixedString(const QString &pattern)

Sets the fixed string used to filter the contents of the source model to the given pattern.

This method will reset the regular expression options but respect case sensitivity.

See also setFilterCaseSensitivity(), setFilterRegularExpression(), setFilterWildcard(), and filterRegularExpression().

### `[slot]` void QSortFilterProxyModel::setFilterRegularExpression(const QString &pattern)

Sets the regular expression used to filter the contents of the source model to pattern.

This method should be preferred for new code as it will use QRegularExpression internally.

This method will reset the regular expression options but respect case sensitivity.

Note: Calling this method updates the regular expression, thereby breaking the binding for filterRegularExpression. However it has no effect on the filterCaseSensitivity bindings.

Note: Setter function for property filterRegularExpression.

See also setFilterCaseSensitivity(), setFilterWildcard(), setFilterFixedString(), and filterRegularExpression().

### `[slot]` void QSortFilterProxyModel::setFilterWildcard(const QString &pattern)
