Plain Data Structure

Documentation

The TreeView's plain (one-dimensional) array contains items each of which references its parent item. Use either of the following properties to bind the component to plain data:

  • items[]
    Assigns a local array as shown in this demo.

  • dataSource
    Assigns a DataSource object that allows you to perform data shaping operations and use a remote source.

Each object in the TreeView's plain data structure should include the following fields:

  • id
    Unique item identifier.

  • parentId
    Identifier of the parent item.

  • text
    Text displayed by the item.

You can respectively use the keyExpr, parentIdExpr, and displayExpr properties to specify custom names for the above-mentioned fields. Node objects can also include developer-defined fields and properties from this help section: items[].

In this demo, nodes use the icon and expanded properties. These properties specify the icon and whether a node is collapsed or expanded. Some nodes also include the developer-defined price field.

Backend API
$(() => { $('#simple-treeview').dxTreeView({ items: products, dataStructure: 'plain', parentIdExpr: 'categoryId', keyExpr: 'ID', displayExpr: 'name', width: 300, onItemClick(e) { const item = e.itemData; if (item.price) { $('#product-details').removeClass('hidden'); $('#product-details > img').attr('alt', item.name).attr('src', item.icon); $('#product-details > .price').text(`$${item.price}`); $('#product-details > .name').text(item.name); } else { $('#product-details').addClass('hidden'); } }, }); });
