Tree

Tree components display hierarchical data in a collapsible structure, allowing users to explore nested relationships while keeping the interface organized and navigable.

import {TreeModule} from "@qualcomm-ui/angular/tree"

Overview

The tree relies on the TreeCollection class to manage its items. Refer to the API below for details.
Trees are composed of nodes, which are objects that describe the tree data. There are two types of nodes:
- A branch node is a node that has children.
- A leaf node is a node that does not have children.
Each node has a value (unique identifier used for selection/expansion) and a text (display text).

Default object shape:

value (required): unique identifier for expansion/selection
text (required): display text
nodes (optional): child nodes for branches
disabled (optional): prevents interaction when true

These defaults can be overridden in the TreeCollection constructor.

We expose the q-tree-nodes component for rendering Branch and Leaf nodes. Use the <ng-template q-tree-branch-template> and <ng-template q-tree-leaf-template> directives to customize the content of each tree item.

Note that q-tree-nodes automatically renders child nodes for branches, so you only have to customize the content of the node itself.

    </div>
  </ng-template>

  <ng-template
    let-leaf
    q-tree-leaf-template
    [rootNode]="collection.rootNode"
  >
    <div q-tree-leaf-node>
      <div q-tree-node-indicator></div>
      <svg q-tree-node-icon qIcon="FileText"></svg>
      <span q-tree-node-text>{{ leaf.node.name }}</span>
    </div>
  </ng-template>
</q-tree-nodes>

Node Types

Pass the rootNode input to the template directives to enable TypeScript type inference. This allows branch.node and leaf.node to have your custom node type instead of the generic TreeNode type.

Nodes

You can bring your own recursive component to create your own abstraction for the tree.

NOTE

This approach is recommended only for advanced use cases. Most users should use the shorthand q-tree-nodes instead.

Default Expanded

Expand nodes by default using the defaultExpandedValue input. Or use expandedValue and expandedValueChange to control the expansion manually. These inputs follow our controlled state pattern.

Checkbox Trees

Use the q-tree-node-checkbox directive within each node to create a checkbox tree. The checked state of the tree can be controlled using the checkedValue, checkedValueChange, and defaultCheckedValue inputs, which follow our controlled state pattern.

Checkbox selection state

The Tree handles nested checkbox selection automatically:

If all of a node's children are checked, the node will also be checked.
If only some of a node's children are checked, the node will appear indeterminate to indicate partial selection.

When you supply the checkedValue or defaultCheckedValue inputs, you must account for the above logic.

Consider the following tree:

const collection = createTreeCollection<Node>({
  rootNode: {
    id: "ROOT",
    name: "",
    nodes: [
      {
        id: "qualcomm",
        name: "Qualcomm",
        nodes: [
          {
            id: "sdx",
            name: "Snapdragon X",
            nodes: [
              {id: "elite", name: "Snapdragon X Elite"},
              {id: "plus", name: "Snapdragon X Plus"},
            ],
          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
})

Let's say that we want to select the sdx node and its children by default.

@Component({
  template: `
    <!-- won't work, we need to supply the child nodes instead -->
    <div q-tree-root [defaultCheckedValue]="['sdx']" [collection]="collection">
      ...
    </div>
  `,
})
export class MyComponent {
  // ...
}

Instead, supply all the child nodes to indicate that the parent is selected:

Brand

Qualcomm

Snapdragon X

Snapdragon X Elite

Snapdragon X Plus

<div
  class="w-full max-w-sm"
  q-tree-root
  [collection]="collection"
  [defaultCheckedValue]="['elite', 'plus']"
  [defaultExpandedValue]="['qualcomm', 'sdx']"
>

The following demo shows checked state below the tree. Interact with it to see state updates:

Disabled Nodes

You can disable nodes by setting the disabled property on the node object.

Links

Tree nodes can be links using Angular's RouterLink directive. Apply the q-tree-branch-node or q-tree-leaf-node directive to an anchor element with [routerLink].

Sizes

Tree item sizes are controlled using the size input on the root of the tree.

Template Directives

q-tree-branch-template

Structural directive that defines the template used to render leaf nodes in a tree. Apply this to an ng-template to customize how branch nodes (nodes with children) are displayed. Note that this template will only customize the content of the node. The parent <q-tree-nodes> component renders the branch children internally.

Prop	Type
rootNode The root node of the tree. Used for type narrowing of the template guard. Learn more	T
