DevExtreme Angular - Array Only

To bind the TreeList to an array, pass this array to the dataSource option.

jQuery
JavaScript
var employees = [
    { id: '1', fullName: "John Heart", position: "CEO" }, 
    { id: '1_1', parentId: '1', fullName: "Samantha Bright",  position: "COO" }, 
    { id: '2_1', parentId: '2', fullName: "Robert Reagan", position: "CMO" }, 
    { id: '2', fullName: "Greta Sims", position: "HR Manager" }
];

$(function(){
    $("#treeListContainer").dxTreeList({
        dataSource: employees
    });
});
Angular
TypeScript
HTML
import { DxTreeListModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    employees = [
        { id: '1', fullName: "John Heart", position: "CEO" }, 
        { id: '1_1', parentId: '1', fullName: "Samantha Bright",  position: "COO" }, 
        { id: '2_1', parentId: '2', fullName: "Robert Reagan", position: "CMO" }, 
        { id: '2', fullName: "Greta Sims", position: "HR Manager" }
    ];
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxTreeListModule
    ],
    // ...
})
<dx-tree-list
    [dataSource]="employees">
</dx-tree-list>

If objects in the array need to be processed (sorted or filtered), you can create a Query. For example, in the following code, a Query sorts objects in the employees array in the descending order by the fullName field.

jQuery
JavaScript
var employees = [
    { id: "1", parentId: "0", fullName: "Samantha Bright",  position: "COO" },
    // ...
];

$(function(){
    $("#treeListContainer").dxTreeList({
        dataSource: DevExpress.data.query(employees)
                        .sortBy("fullName", true)
                        .toArray()
    });
});
Angular
TypeScript
HTML
import { DxTreeListModule } from "devextreme-angular";
import query from "devextreme/data/query";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    employees = [
        { id: "1", parentId: "0", fullName: "Samantha Bright",  position: "COO" },
        // ...
    ];
    getSortedEmployees () {
        return query(this.employees).sortBy("fullName", true).toArray();
    }
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxTreeListModule
    ],
    // ...
})
<dx-tree-list
    [dataSource]="getSortedEmployees()">
</dx-tree-list>
