Before we start with the TreeView, please refer this page for general information regarding integrating Syncfusion widget’s.

Control Initialization

  • Open the command prompt in the folder ember-app or the folder in which the application is created.

  • Use the command ember generate route treeview/default to create template default.hbs file in templates folder and router default.js file in routes folder. It also add the routing content in router.js.

  • Use below code in default.hbs in templates folder to render the TreeView.

  • HTML
  • {{#ej-treeview id="defaulttreeview" }}
    			   <ul>
                            <li>Discover Music

                        </ul>
    			   {{/ej-treeview}}
    • Use the below code in default.js in routes folder to bind the model to the TreeView.
  • HTML
  • export default Ember.Route.extend({
          model(){
             return {
               
            }
        }

    Running the application

    • To run the application, execute below command.
  • JAVASCRIPT
  • ember serve
    • Browse to http://localhost:4200 to see the application. And navigate to TreeView sample (http://localhost:4200/treeview/default). The component is rendered as like the below screenshot. You can make changes in the code found under app folder and the browser should auto-refresh itself while you save files.

    Check boxes

    TreeView consists of built-in checkbox option and it can be displayed to the left of the tree node by setting the showCheckbox property as true. It allows you to select more than one node at a time.

    Indeterminate Checkboxes

    TreeView supports tristate checkboxes in addition with standard two state checkboxes. By default TreeView has been enabled with tristate in checkboxes. You can enable 2-state checkboxes by using autoCheckParentNode as false.

  • HTML
  • {{#ej-treeview id="defaulttreeview" e-showCheckbox = true e-autoCheckParentNode = false }}
    			   <ul>
                            <li>Discover Music
                                <ul>
                                    <li>Hot Singles</li>
                                    <li>Rising Artists</li>
                                    <li>Live Music</li>
                                    <li>Best of 2013 So Far</li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                            <li>Sales and Events
                                <ul>
                                    <li>100 Albums - $5 Each</li>
                                    <li>Hip-Hop and R&B Sale</li>
                                    <li>CD Deals</li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                        </ul>
    			   {{/ej-treeview}}

    Auto Checkable

    By default checkbox state of child nodes depends up on parent node checkbox state and also parent node state gets updated based on child nodes state. You can turn off this option by setting autoCheck as false to make independent parent and child nodes checkboxes.

  • HTML
  • {{#ej-treeview id="defaulttreeview" e-showCheckbox = true e-autoCheck = false }}
    			   <ul>
                            <li>Discover Music
                                <ul>
                                    <li>Hot Singles</li>
                                    <li>Rising Artists</li>
                                    <li>Live Music</li>
                                    <li>Best of 2013 So Far</li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                            <li>Sales and Events
                                <ul>
                                    <li>100 Albums - $5 Each</li>
                                    <li>Hip-Hop and R&B Sale</li>
                                    <li>CD Deals</li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                        </ul>
      {{/ej-treeview}}

    Populating data

    TreeView can be populated with local or remote data source by using a property dataSource, which is the member of fields property.

    In TreeView, you should use “fields” property to go with data source. It specifies the mapping fields for the data source to receive the data, query to process the data and field mappers to map the data members.

    Fields

    The following table contains the list of members with description for fields property.
