PySide, through Qt, has an extensive and intricate model/view framework. This package provides a simpler interface to this through a single model class, DataModel and a single view class DataView which are built on top of QAbstractTableModel and QTableView respectively but which support tabular data structures. A HideProxyMixin class can be used as a mixin for proxy models to automatically map unrecognised attribute lookups to source models. Two new proxy models, SortFilterProxyModel and AppendProxyModel use this mixin.
A new mechanism is provided to hide additional proxy layers between the view and the source model by use of a HideProxyMixin mixin class. Two new proxy classes are also available: AppendProxyModel and SortFilterProxyModel.
The basic delegate is TypedDelegate, which intelligently manages several data types, including datetime and SelectList values. Delegates for specific types are subclassed from this, and may be used explicitly instead for better control.
