Get dynamic icon in Angular Treeview component

28 Sep 20233 minutes to read

In TreeView component, you can get the original bound data using the getTreeData method. For this method, if you pass the id of the tree node, it returns the corresponding node information, or otherwise the overall tree nodes information will be returned. You can use this method to get the bound iconCss class in the nodeChecking event. Please refer to the following sample.

app.component.ts

import { Component, Inject, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { NodeCheckEventArgs, TreeViewComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';
/**
 * Icon css sample
 */
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `<div id='treeparent'><ejs-treeview id='treeElement' #treevalidate [fields]='field'  (nodeChecking)='onNodeCheck($event)' [showCheckBox]=true [autoCheck]=false></ejs-treeview></div>`
})
export class AppComponent {

   // Data source for TreeView component
   public treeData: Object[] = [
        {
        "nodeId": "01", "nodeText": "Music", "icon": "folder", "expanded": true, "nodeChild": [
            { "nodeId": "01-01", "nodeText": "Gouttes.mp3", "icon": "audio" }
          ]
        },
        {
          "nodeId": "02", "nodeText": "Videos", "icon": "folder", "expanded": true, "nodeChild": [
            { "nodeId": "02-01", "nodeText": "Naturals.mp4", "icon": "video" },
            { "nodeId": "02-02", "nodeText": "Wild.mpeg", "icon": "video" }
          ]
        }
    ];

    public field:Object ={  dataSource: this.treeData, id: 'nodeId', text: 'nodeText', child: 'nodeChild', iconCss: 'icon', expanded: 'expanded' };

    @ViewChild ('treevalidate') tree?: TreeViewComponent;

    public onNodeCheck(args: NodeCheckEventArgs): void {
      let nodeId: any = args.data[0]['id'];
      // To get the iconCss
      let iconClass = this.tree?.getTreeData(nodeId)[0]['icon'];
      alert('Icon class is ' + iconClass);
    }
}

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
