Detailed Description
Each picture of an item in the BrickLink catalog is available as a Picture object.
You cannot create Picture objects yourself, but you can retrieve a Picture object given the item and color id via BrickLink::picture().
Note: Pictures aren't readily available, but need to be asynchronously loaded (or even downloaded) at runtime. You need to connect to the signal BrickLink::pictureUpdated() to know when the data has been loaded.
Property Documentation
color : ColorPointer |
The BrickLink color reference this picture is requested for as a raw C++ pointer. You can convert it to a QML Color object like this:
let color = BrickLink.color(pic.color)
image : image |
Returns the image if the Picture object isValid, or a null image otherwise.
isNull : bool |
Returns whether this Picture is null. Since this type is a value wrapper around a C++ object, we cannot use the normal JavaScript null notation.
isValid : bool |
Returns whether the image property currently holds a valid image.
item : ItemPointer |
The BrickLink item reference this picture is requested for as a raw C++ pointer. You can convert it to a QML Item object like this:
let item = BrickLink.item(pic.item)
lastUpdated : date |
Holds the time stamp of the last successful update of this picture.
updateStatus : UpdateStatus |
Returns the current update status. The available values are:
| Constant | Description |
|---|---|
BrickLink.UpdateStatus.Ok | The last picture load (or download) was successful. |
BrickLink.UpdateStatus.Loading | BrickStore is currently loading the picture from the local cache. |
BrickLink.UpdateStatus.Updating | BrickStore is currently downloading the picture from BrickLink. |
BrickLink.UpdateStatus.UpdateFailed | The last download from BrickLink failed. isValid might still be true, if there was a valid picture available before the failed update! |
Method Documentation
update(bool highPriority = false) |
Tries to re-download the picture from the BrickLink server. If you set highPriority to true the load/download request will be prepended to the work queue instead of appended.
