PyQt5 – How to get the model of ComboBox

In this article we will see how we can get model of the combo box. Model is used to set the items of the combo box. In order to set the model we will use setModel method. If we add model after the insertion of items it will clear all the elements so model should be added before any insertion of elements. In order to get the model we use model method.

Syntax : combo_box.model() Argument : It takes no argument Return : It returns QStandardItemModel object

Below is the implementation – 

Python3




# importing libraries
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
import sys
 
 
class Window(QMainWindow):
 
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
 
        # setting title
        self.setWindowTitle("Python ")
 
        # setting geometry
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 600, 400)
 
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
 
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
 
    # method for widgets
    def UiComponents(self):
 
        # creating a combo box widget
        self.combo_box = QComboBox(self)
 
        # setting geometry of combo box
        self.combo_box.setGeometry(200, 150, 150, 30)
 
        # geek list
        geek_list = ["Sayian", "Super Sayian", "Super Sayian 2",
                                               "Super Sayian B"]
 
        # making it editable
        self.combo_box.setEditable(True)
 
        # adding list of items to combo box
        self.combo_box.addItems(geek_list)
 
        # creating a model
        model = QtGui.QStandardItemModel(0, 1)
 
        # creating a item
        item = QtGui.QStandardItem("New model")
 
        # adding item to the model
        model.appendRow(item)
 
        # setting model to the combo box
        self.combo_box.setModel(model)
 
        # getting the model
        get_model = self.combo_box.model()
 
        # creating label to show model
        label = QLabel("Model = " + str(get_model), self)
 
        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(150, 100, 300, 30)
 
 
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
 
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
 
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
