React TreeView Methods
beginUpdate()
Postpones rendering that can negatively affect performance until the endUpdate() method is called.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

defaultOptions(rule)
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
device | | |
Device parameters. |
options |
Options to be applied. |
defaultOptions is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to specify default properties for all instances of the TreeView UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxTreeView.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } });
Angular
import TreeView, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { TreeView.defaultOptions<Properties>({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxTreeView id="treeView1" /> <DxTreeView id="treeView2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxTreeView from "devextreme-vue/tree-view"; import TreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; TreeView.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); export default { components: { DxTreeView } } </script>
React
import dxTreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; import TreeView from "devextreme-react/tree-view"; dxTreeView.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); export default function App() { return ( <div> <TreeView id="treeView1" /> <TreeView id="treeView2" /> </div> ) }
You can also set rules for multiple device types:
jQuery
const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { DevExpress.ui.dxTreeView.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); });
Angular
import TreeView, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { TreeView.defaultOptions<Properties>({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxTreeView /> </div> </template> <script> import DxTreeView from "devextreme-vue/tree-view"; import TreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { TreeView.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); }); export default { components: { DxTreeView } } </script>
React
import dxTreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; import TreeView from "devextreme-react/tree-view"; const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { dxTreeView.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the TreeView properties } }); }); export default function App() { return ( <div> <TreeView /> </div> ) }
dispose()
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myTreeView").dxTreeView("dispose"); $("#myTreeView").remove();
Angular
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<dx-tree-view ... *ngIf="condition"> </dx-tree-view>
Vue
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<template> <DxTreeView ... v-if="condition"> </DxTreeView> </template> <script> import DxTreeView from 'devextreme-vue/tree-view'; export default { components: { DxTreeView } } </script>
React
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react'; import TreeView from 'devextreme-react/tree-view'; function DxTreeView(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <TreeView ... > </TreeView> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxTreeView shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;
endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

getInstance(element)
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the TreeView instance found in an element with the myTreeView
ID:
// Modular approach import TreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view"; ... let element = document.getElementById("myTreeView"); let instance = TreeView.getInstance(element) as TreeView; // Non-modular approach let element = document.getElementById("myTreeView"); let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxTreeView.getInstance(element);
