Process the tree node operations using context menu
25 Feb 202218 minutes to read
You can integrate the context menu with ‘TreeView’ control in order to perform the tree view related operations like add, remove and renaming node.
Following is an example which demonstrates the above cases which are used to manipulate tree view operations in the ‘select ‘ event of context menu.
@Html.EJS().TreeView("treedata").CssClass("custom").Fields(field=>
field.Id("id").ParentID("pid").Text("name").HasChildren("hasChild").Expanded("expanded")
.Selected("is_selected").HtmlAttributes("hasAttribute").DataSource(ViewBag.dataSource)).NodeClicked("nodeClicked").Render()
@Html.EJS().ContextMenu("menu").Target("#treedata").Select("menuClick").BeforeOpen("beforeOpen").Items(ViewBag.menuItems).Render()
<script>
var index = 1;
function nodeClicked(args) {
if (args.event.which === 3) {
var treeObj = document.getElementById('treedata').ej2_instances[0];
treeObj.selectedNodes = [args.node.getAttribute('data-uid')];
}
}
function menuClick(args) {
var treeObj = document.getElementById('treedata').ej2_instances[0];
var menuObj = document.getElementById('menu').ej2_instances[0];
var targetNodeId = treeObj.selectedNodes[0];
if (args.item.text == "Add New Item") {
var nodeId = "tree_" + index;
var item = { id: nodeId, name: "New Folder" };
treeObj.addNodes([item], targetNodeId, null);
index++;
treeObj.fields.dataSource.push(item);
treeObj.beginEdit(nodeId);
}
else if (args.item.text == "Remove Item") {
treeObj.removeNodes([targetNodeId]);
}
else if (args.item.text == "Rename Item") {
treeObj.beginEdit(targetNodeId);
}
}
function beforeOpen(args) {
var treeObj = document.getElementById('treedata').ej2_instances[0];
var menuObj = document.getElementById('menu').ej2_instances[0];
var targetNodeId = treeObj.selectedNodes[0];
var targetNode = document.getElementById('treedata').querySelector('[data-uid="' + targetNodeId + '"]');
if (targetNode.classList.contains('remove')) {
menuObj.enableItems(['Remove Item'], false);
}
else {
menuObj.enableItems(['Remove Item'], true);
}
if (targetNode.classList.contains('rename')) {
menuObj.enableItems(['Rename Item'], false);
}
else {
menuObj.enableItems(['Rename Item'], true);
}
}
</script>
}
