React.js Bootstrap Tree View

A prototype version of my jQuery based Tree View for Twitter Bootstrap

Dependencies

The project has very few dependencies, but you will need the following.

Getting Started

Install

Npm:

$ npm install react-bootstrap-treeview

Bower:

$ bower install react-bootstrap-treeview

Manual:

Old fashion, downloadable files can be found here

Usage

Include the correct styles, it's mainly just bootstrap but we add a few tweaks as well.

<!-- Required CSS -->
<link href="path/to/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="path/to/react-bootstrap-treeview.css" rel="stylesheet">

Add required libraries.

<!-- Required JavaScript -->
<script src="path/to/react.js"></script>
<script src="path/to/react-bootstrap-tree.js"></script>

Then, a basic initialization would look like.

React.render(
	<TreeView data={data} />,
	document.getElementById('treeview')
);

Example

Putting it all together a minimal implementation might look like this.

<html>
  <head>
    <title>React + Bootstrap Tree View</title>
    <link href="path/to/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <link href="path/to/react-bootstrap-treeview.css" rel="stylesheet">
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="container">
      <h1>React + Bootstrap Tree View</h1>
      <br/>
      <div class="row">
        <div id="treeview"></div>
      </div>
    </div>
    <script src="path/to/react.js"></script>
    <script src="path/to/JSXTransformer.js"></script>
    <script src="path/to/react-bootstrap-treeview.js"></script>
    <script type="text/jsx">
    	React.render(
				<TreeView data={data} />,
				document.getElementById('treeview')
			);
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Data Structure

In order to define the hierarchical structure needed for the tree it's necessary to provide a nested array of JavaScript objects.

Example

var tree = [
  {
    text: "Parent 1",
    nodes: [
      {
        text: "Child 1",
        nodes: [
          {
            text: "Grandchild 1"
          },
          {
            text: "Grandchild 2"
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        text: "Child 2"
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    text: "Parent 2"
  },
  {
    text: "Parent 3"
  },
  {
    text: "Parent 4"
  },
  {
    text: "Parent 5"
  }
];

At the lowest level a tree node is a represented as a simple JavaScript object. This one required property text will build you a tree.

{
  text: "Node 1"
}

If you want to do more, here's the full node specification

{
  text: "Node 1",
  icon: "glyphicon glyphicon-stop",
  color: "#000000",
  backColor: "#FFFFFF",
  href: "#node-1",
  state: {
  	expanded: true,
  	selected: true
  },
  tags: ['available'],
  nodes: [
    {},
    ...
  ]
}

Node Properties

The following properties are defined to allow node level overrides, such as node specific icons, colours and tags.

text

String Mandatory

The text value displayed for a given tree node, typically to the right of the nodes icon.

icon

String Optional

The icon displayed on a given node, typically to the left of the text.

For simplicity we directly leverage Bootstraps Glyphicons support and as such you should provide both the base class and individual icon class separated by a space.

By providing the base class you retain full control over the icons used. If you want to use your own then just add your class to this icon field.

color

String Optional

The foreground color used on a given node, overrides global color option.

backColor

String Optional

The background color used on a given node, overrides global color option.

href

String Optional

Used in conjunction with global enableLinks option to specify anchor tag URL on a given node.

state

Object Optional

Describes a node's initial state.

state.expanded

Boolean Default: false

Whether or not a node is expanded i.e. open. Takes precedence over global option levels.

state.selected

Boolean Default: false

Whether or not a node is selected.

Options

Options allow you to customise the treeview's default appearance and behaviour. They are passed to the react component as properties on initialization.

// Example: initializing the treeview
// expanded to 5 levels
// with a background color of green
React.render(
	<TreeView data={data}
				levels={5}
				backColor={"green"} />,
	document.getElementById('treeview')
);

The following is a list of all available options.

data

Array of Objects. No default, expects data

This is the core data to be displayed by the tree view.

backColor

String, any legal color value. Default: inherits from Bootstrap.css.

Sets the default background color used by all nodes, except when overridden on a per node basis in data.

borderColor

String, any legal color value. Default: inherits from Bootstrap.css.

Sets the border color for the component; set showBorder to false if you don't want a visible border.

collapseIcon

String, class name(s). Default: "glyphicon glyphicon-minus" as defined by Bootstrap Glyphicons

Sets the icon to be used on a collapsible tree node.

color

String, any legal color value. Default: inherits from Bootstrap.css.

Sets the default foreground color used by all nodes, except when overridden on a per node basis in data.

emptyIcon

String, class name(s). Default: "glyphicon" as defined by Bootstrap Glyphicons

Sets the icon to be used on a tree node with no child nodes.

enableLinks

Boolean. Default: false

Whether or not to present node text as a hyperlink. The href value of which must be provided in the data structure on a per node basis.

expandIcon

String, class name(s). Default: "glyphicon glyphicon-plus" as defined by Bootstrap Glyphicons

Sets the icon to be used on an expandable tree node.

highlightSelected

Boolean. Default: true

Whether or not to highlight the selected node.

levels

Integer. Default: 2

Sets the number of hierarchical levels deep the tree will be expanded to by default.

nodeIcon

String, class name(s). Default: "glyphicon glyphicon-stop" as defined by Bootstrap Glyphicons

Sets the default icon to be used on all nodes, except when overridden on a per node basis in data.

selectedBackColor

String, any legal color value. Default: '#428bca'.

Sets the background color of the selected node.

selectedColor

String, any legal color value. Default: '#FFFFFF'.

Sets the foreground color of the selected node.

showBorder

Boolean. Default: true

Whether or not to display a border around nodes.
