I have a JSON String es from the server side:
{"success":"true","total":"6","list":
[{"id":"1","name":"folder1","parentid":"null","type":"0"},
{"id":"2","name":"r1","parentid":"1","type":"1"},
{"id":"3","name":"folder2","parentid":"1","type":"0"},
{"id":"4","name":"r2","parentid":"3","type":"1"},
{"id":"5","name":"r3","parentid":"null","type":"1"},
{"id":"6","name":"folder3","parentid":"null","type":"0"}]}
How do I turn that into a tree? Can anyone suggest me how to get the elements in the list (id, name, parentid, type)?

Reset to default 3I used the following structure:
Model
Ext.define('MyApp.model.MyTreeModel', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
'someStringIdentifier',
'children',
'dataForThisNode',
],
});
Store
Ext.define('MyApp.store.MyTreeStore', {
extend: 'Ext.data.TreeStore',
model: 'MyApp.model.MyTreeModel',
storeId: 'cubeDynamicStoreId',
autoLoad: false,
proxy: {
type: 'ajax',
api: {
read : '/myapp/rest/myquery',
},
reader: {
type: 'json',
root: 'children',
successProperty: 'success',
idProperty: 'id',
},
},
// bug in extjs4.1 autoLoad is ignored
// specifying "loaded: true" resolves the problem
root: {
expanded: true,
loaded: true,
},
});
Sample JSON ( use http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/ to visualize)
Use the leaf property to stop expansion at any node
{"children":{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"Total","dataForThisNode":{},"children":[{"leaf":true,"someStringIdentifier":"data1","dataForThisNode":{},"children":[{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2012","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2013","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2014","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2015","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2016","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2017","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2018","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null}]},{"leaf":true,"someStringIdentifier":"data2","dataForThisNode":{},"children":[{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2012","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2013","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2014","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2015","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2016","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2017","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null},{"leaf":false,"someStringIdentifier":"2018","dataForThisNode":{},"children":null}]}]},"success":true}
Let's start with the store definition:
Ext.define('app.store.Tasks', {
extend: 'Ext.data.TreeStore',
model: 'app.model.Task',
autoSync: true,
autoLoad: true,
root: {
text: 'Root',
id: 'NULL',
expanded: true
},
});
The important thing to note is that we are extending TreeStore here. Thus, our model records will be wrapped with Ext.data.NodeInterface, which included many tree-related fields (like, for example, parentNode).
Then to the model definition:
Ext.define('app.model.Task', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{name: 'name' , type: 'string'},
{name: 'iconCls' , type: 'string', defaultValue: 'treenode-no-icon'},
{name: 'expanded' , type: 'boolean', defaultValue: true, persist: false},
{name: 'index' , type: 'int'},
],
proxy: {
type: 'direct',
api: {
create: Tasks.Create,
read: Tasks.Read,
update: Tasks.Update,
destroy: Tasks.Destroy,
},
},
});
The only 'real' field we've defined is name, All the others are part of NodeInterface: iconCls has a default value of no icon; expanded is set with persist:false so collapsing/expanding a node won't result in an update server call; index is included so if the user re-order nodes (using drag and drop) server calls will be made.
Notice that there's no id field since a a model's default idProperty is id, ExtJS is smart enough to figure that if your JSON has id field in it - it represents the unique id of the record.
Also note there's no parentId field - by providing correct JSON (with nodes having children property), NodeInterface work out the correct parentNode of each node.
Then the JSON:
{
"success":true,
"children":[
{
"id":"1",
"name":"Home",
"children":[
{
"id":"6",
"name":"Emails",
"leaf":true
},
{
"id":"7",
"name":"Bath",
"leaf":true
}
],
"leaf":false
},
]
}
That's pretty much it!
The first answer on this subject from Izhaki is great, but it seems misleading and will not work as is if your expectation is to see the description for nodes. I spent several hours struggling with this. The only way to see this description is to rename "name" with "text". see below.
Ext.define('app.model.Task', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{name: 'text' , type: 'string'},
{name: 'iconCls' , type: 'string', defaultValue: 'treenode-no-icon'},
{name: 'expanded' , type: 'boolean', defaultValue: true, persist: false},
{name: 'index' , type: 'int'},
],
