In addition, the control shows the selection in pills and allows user to search the options for quick filtering and selection. Also supports displaying partially selected nodes. ## Table of Contents - [Screenshot](#screenshot) - [Demo](#demo) - [Vanilla, no framework](#vanilla-no-framework) - [With Bootstrap](#with-bootstrap) - [With Material Design](#with-material-design) - [As Single Select](#as-single-select) - [Install](#install) - [As NPM package](#as-npm-package) - [Using a CDN](#using-a-cdn) - [Peer Dependencies](#peer-dependencies) - [Usage](#usage) - [Props](#props) - [className](#classname) - [clearSearchOnChange](#clearsearchonchange) - [onChange](#onchange) - [onNodeToggle](#onnodetoggle) - [onAction](#onaction) - [onFocus](#onfocus) - [onBlur](#onblur) - [data](#data) - [texts](#texts) - [keepTreeOnSearch](#keeptreeonsearch) - [keepChildrenOnSearch](#keepchildrenonsearch) - [keepOpenOnSelect](#keepopenonselect) - [mode](#mode) - [multiSelect](#multiselect) - [hierarchical](#hierarchical) - [simpleSelect](#simpleselect) - [radioSelect](#radioselect) - [showPartiallySelected](#showpartiallyselected) - [showDropdown](#showdropdown) - [initial](#initial) - [always](#always) - [form states (disabled|readOnly)](#form-states-disabled-readonly) - [id](#id) - [searchPredicate](#searchpredicate) - [inlineSearchInput](#inlinesearchinput) - [tabIndex](#tabIndex) - [disablePoppingOnBackspace](#disablePoppingOnBackspace) - [Styling and Customization](#styling-and-customization) - [Using default styles](#default-styles) - [Customizing with Bootstrap, Material Design styles](#customizing-styles) - [Keyboard navigation](#keyboard-navigation) - [Performance](#performance) - [Search optimizations](#search-optimizations) - [Search debouncing](#search-debouncing) - [Virtualized rendering](#virtualized-rendering) - [Reducing costly DOM manipulations](#reducing-costly-dom-manipulations) - [FAQ](#faq) - [Doing more with HOCs](/docs/HOC.md) - [Development](#development) - [License](#license) - [Contributors](#contributors) ## Screenshot ![animated demo screenshot](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/781818/37562235-0ae9e9ec-2a3a-11e8-8266-b0e6b716d0d1.gif) ## Demo ##### Vanilla, no framework Online demo: https://dowjones.github.io/react-dropdown-tree-select/#/story/with-vanilla-styles ##### With Bootstrap Online demo: https://dowjones.github.io/react-dropdown-tree-select/#/story/with-bootstrap-styles ##### With Material Design Online demo: https://dowjones.github.io/react-dropdown-tree-select/#/story/with-material-design-styles ##### As Single Select Online demo: https://dowjones.github.io/react-dropdown-tree-select/#/story/simple-select ## Install ### As NPM package ```js npm i react-dropdown-tree-select // or if using yarn yarn add react-dropdown-tree-select ``` ### Using a CDN You can import the standalone UMD build from a CDN such as: ```html ``` **Note:** Above example will always fetch the latest version. To fetch a specific version, use `https://unpkg.com/react-dropdown-tree-select@/dist/...` Visit [unpkg.com](https://unpkg.com/#/) to see other options. ### Peer Dependencies In order to avoid version conflicts in your project, you must specify and install [react](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react), [react-dom](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-dom) as [peer dependencies](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/npm/peer-dependencies/). Note that NPM(version 4-6) doesn't install peer dependencies automatically. Instead it will show you a warning message with instructions on how to install them. If using Npm 7.X.X version, peer dependencies will be installed automatically. If you're using the UMD builds, you'd also need to install the peer dependencies in your application: ```html ``` ## Usage ```jsx import React from 'react' import ReactDOM from 'react-dom' import DropdownTreeSelect from 'react-dropdown-tree-select' import 'react-dropdown-tree-select/dist/styles.css' const data = { label: 'search me', value: 'searchme', children: [ { label: 'search me too', value: 'searchmetoo', children: [ { label: 'No one can get me', value: 'anonymous', }, ], }, ], } const onChange = (currentNode, selectedNodes) => { console.log('onChange::', currentNode, selectedNodes) } const onAction = (node, action) => { console.log('onAction::', action, node) } const onNodeToggle = currentNode => { console.log('onNodeToggle::', currentNode) } ReactDOM.render( , document.body ) // in real world, you'd want to render to an element, instead of body. ``` ## Props ### className Type: `string` Additional classname for container. The container renders with a default classname of `react-dropdown-tree-select`. ### clearSearchOnChange Type: `bool` Clear the input search if a node has been selected/unselected. ### onChange Type: `function` Fires when a node change event occurs. Currently the following actions trigger a node change: - Checkbox click which checks/unchecks the item - Closing of pill (which unchecks the corresponding checkbox item) Calls the handler with the current node object and all selected nodes (if any). Example: ```jsx function onChange(currentNode, selectedNodes) { // currentNode: { label, value, children, expanded, checked, className, ...extraProps } // selectedNodes: [{ label, value, children, expanded, checked, className, ...extraProps }] } return ``` ### onNodeToggle Type: `function` Fires when a node is expanded or collapsed. Calls the handler with the current node object. Example: ```jsx function onNodeToggle(currentNode) { // currentNode: { label, value, children, expanded, checked, className, ...extraProps } } return ``` ### onAction Type: `function` Fires when a action is triggered. Example: ```jsx function onAction(node, action) { console.log('onAction::', action, node) } return ``` ### onFocus Type: `function` Fires when input box receives focus or the dropdown arrow is clicked. This is helpful for setting `dirty` or `touched` flags with forms. ### onBlur Type: `function` Fires when input box loses focus or the dropdown arrow is clicked again (and the dropdown collapses). This is helpful for setting `dirty` or `touched` flags with forms. ### data Type: `Object` or `Array` Data for rendering the tree select items. The object requires the following structure: ```js { label, // required: Checkbox label value, // required: Checkbox value children, // optional: Array of child objects checked, // optional: Initial state of checkbox. if true, checkbox is selected and corresponding pill is rendered. disabled, // optional: Selectable state of checkbox. if true, the checkbox is disabled and the node is not selectable. expanded, // optional: If true, the node is expanded (children of children nodes are not expanded by default unless children nodes also have expanded: true). className, // optional: Additional css class for the node. This is helpful to style the nodes your way tagClassName, // optional: Css class for the corresponding tag. Use this to add custom style the pill corresponding to the node. actions, // optional: An array of extra action on the node (such as displaying an info icon or any custom icons/elements) dataset, // optional: Allows data-* attributes to be set on the node and tag elements isDefaultValue, // optional: Indicate if a node is a default value. When true, the dropdown will automatically select the node(s) when there is no other selected node. Can be used on more than one node. tagLabel, // optional: tag label in case you need it to differ from the checkbox label ... // optional: Any extra properties that you'd like to receive during `onChange` event } ``` The `action` object requires the following structure: ```js { className, // required: CSS class for the node. e.g. `fa fa-info` title, // optional: HTML tooltip text text, // optional: Any text to be displayed. This is helpful to pass ligatures if you're using ligature fonts ... // optional: Any extra properties that you'd like to receive during `onChange` event } ``` An array renders a tree with multiple root level items whereas an object renders a tree with a single root element (e.g. a `Select All` root node). ### texts Texts to override various labels, place holders & messages used in the component. You can also use this to provide translated messages. The `texts` object requires the following structure: ```js { placeholder, // optional: The text to display as placeholder on the search box. Defaults to `Choose...` inlineSearchPlaceholder, // optional: The text to display as placeholder on the inline search box. Only applicable with the `inlineSearchInput` setting. Defaults to `Search...` noMatches, // optional: The text to display when the search does not find results in the content list. Defaults to `No matches found` label, // optional: Adds `aria-labelledby` to search input when input starts with `#`, adds `aria-label` to search input when label has value (not containing '#') labelRemove, // optional: The text to display for `aria-label` on tag delete buttons which is combined with `aria-labelledby` pointing to the node label. Defaults to `Remove` } ``` ### keepTreeOnSearch Type: `bool` Displays search results as a tree instead of flattened results ### keepChildrenOnSearch Type: `bool` Displays children of found nodes to allow searching for a parent node on then selecting any child node of the found node. Defaults to `false` _NOTE_ this works only in combination with `keepTreeOnSearch` ### keepOpenOnSelect Type: `bool` (default: 'false') Keeps single selects open after selection. Defaults to `false` _NOTE_ this works only in combination with `simpleSelect` or `radioSelect` ### mode Type: `string` (default: `multiSelect`) Defines how the dropdown is rendered / behaves #### multiSelect A multi selectable dropdown which supports tree data with parent-child relationships. This is the default mode. #### hierarchical A multi selectable dropdown which supports tree data **without** parent-child relationships. In this mode, selecting a node has no ripple effects on its descendants or ancestors. Subsequently, `showPartiallySelected` becomes a moot flag and has no effect as well. ⚠️ Note that `hierarchical=true` negates/overrides `showPartiallySelected`. #### simpleSelect Turns the dropdown into a simple, single select dropdown. If you pass tree data, only immediate children are picked, grandchildren nodes are ignored. ⚠️ If multiple nodes in data are selected - by setting either `checked` or `isDefaultValue`, only the first visited node stays selected. #### radioSelect Turns the dropdown into radio select dropdown. Like `simpleSelect`, you can only select one value; but keeps the tree/children structure. ⚠️ If multiple nodes in data are selected - by setting either `checked` or `isDefaultValue`, only the first visited node stays selected. ### showPartiallySelected Type: `bool` (default: `false`) If set to true, shows checkboxes in a partial state when one, but not all of their children are selected. Allows styling of partially selected nodes as well, by using [:indeterminate](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:indeterminate) pseudo class. Simply add desired styles to `.node.partial .checkbox-item:indeterminate { ... }` in your CSS. ### showDropdown Type: `string` Let's you choose the rendered state of the dropdown. #### initial `showDropdown: initial` shows the dropdown when rendered. This can be used to render the component with the dropdown open as its initial state. #### always `showDropdown: always` shows the dropdown when rendered, and keeps it visible at all times. Toggling dropdown is disabled. ### form states (disabled|readOnly) Type: `bool` (default: `false`) `disabled=true` disables the dropdown completely. This is useful during form submit events. `readOnly=true` makes the dropdown read only, which means that the user can still interact with it but cannot change any of its values. This can be useful for display only forms. ### id Type: `string` Specific id for container. The container renders with a default id of `rdtsN` where N is the count of the current component rendered. Use to ensure a own unique id when a simple counter is not sufficient, e.g in a partial server render (SSR) ### searchPredicate Type: `function` Optional search predicate to override the default case insensitive contains match on node labels. Example: ```jsx function searchPredicate(node, searchTerm) { return node.customData && node.customData.toLower().indexOf(searchTerm) >= 0 } return ``` ### inlineSearchInput Type: `bool` (default: `false`) `inlineSearchInput=true` makes the search input renders **inside** the dropdown-content. This can be useful when your UX looks something like [this comment](https://github.com/dowjones/react-dropdown-tree-select/issues/308#issue-526467109). ### tabIndex Type: `number` (default: `0`) `tabIndex=0` attribute indicates that its element can be focused, and where it participates in sequential keyboard navigation. ### disablePoppingOnBackspace Type: `bool` (default: `false`) `disablePoppingOnBackspace=true` attribute indicates that when a user triggers a 'backspace' keyDown in the empty search bar, the tree will not deselect nodes. ## Styling and Customization ### Default styles The component brings minimal styles for bare-bones functional rendering. It is kept purposefully minimal so that user can style/customize it completely to suit their needs. #### Using WebPack If you're using a bundler like WebPack, make sure you configure WebPack to import the default styles. To do so, simply add this rule to your WebPack config: ```js // allow WebPack to import/bundle styles from node_modules for this component module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/, use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({ fallback: 'style-loader', use: [ { loader: 'css-loader', }, ], }), include: /node_modules[/\\]react-dropdown-tree-select/, }, ] } ``` #### Using a CDN You can import and place a style link directly by referencing it from a CDN. ```html ``` Note: Above example will always fetch the latest version. To fetch a specific version, use `https://unpkg.com/react-dropdown-tree-select@/dist/styles.css`. Visit [unpkg.com](https://unpkg.com/#/) to see other options. #### Using with other bundlers You can reference the files from `node_modules/react-dropdown-tree-select/dist/styles.css` to include in your own bundle via gulp or any other bundlers you have. ### Customizing styles Once you import default styles, it is easy to add/override the provided styles to match popular frameworks. Checkout `/docs` folder for some examples. - [With Bootstrap](/docs/examples/bootstrap) - [With Material Design ](/docs/examples/material) ## Keyboard navigation Adds navigation with `arrow` keys, `page down/up` / `home/end` and toggle of selection with `enter`. `Arrow/page up/down` also toggles open of dropdown if closed. To close open dropdown `escape` or `tab` can be used and `backspace` can be used for deletion of tags on empty search input. ## Performance ### Search optimizations - The tree creates a flat list of nodes from hierarchical tree data to perform searches that are linear in time irrespective of the tree depth or size. - It also memoizes each search term, so subsequent searches are instantaneous (almost). - Last but not the least, the search employs progressive filtering technique where subsequent searches are performed on the previous search set. E.g., say the tree has 4000 nodes altogether and the user wants to filter nodes that contain the text: "2002". As the user enters each key press the search goes like this: ``` key press : 2-----20-----200-----2002 | | | | search set: 967 834 49 7 ``` The search for "20" happens against the previously matched set of 967 as opposed to all 4000 nodes; "200" happens against 834 nodes and so on. ### Search debouncing The tree debounces key presses to avoid costly search calculations. The default duration is 100ms. ### Virtualized rendering The dropdown renders only visible content and skips any nodes that are going to hidden from the user. E.g., if a parent node is not expanded, there is no point in rendering children since they will not be visible anyway. ~~Planned feature: Use [react-virtualized](https://github.com/bvaughn/react-virtualized) to take this to the next level.~~ The search tree now uses infinite scroll, limiting search results to 100 items initially (more load seamlessly as you scroll) - this results in super fast rendering even with large number of nodes (see [#80](https://github.com/dowjones/react-dropdown-tree-select/issues/80)). ### Reducing costly DOM manipulations The tree tries to minimize the DOM manipulations as much as possible. E.g., during searching, the non-matching nodes are simply `hidden` and css adjusted on remaining to create the perception of a new filtered list. Node toggling also achieves the expand/collapse effect by manipulating css classes instead of creating new tree with filtered out nodes. ## FAQ ### How do I change the placeholder text? The default [placeholder](#texts) is `Choose...`. If you want to change this to something else, you can use `placeholder` property to set it. ```jsx ``` ### How do I tweak styles? Easy style customization is one of the design goals of this component. Every visual aspect of this dropdown can be tweaked without going through extensive hacks. E.g., to change how disabled nodes appear: ```css .node .fa-ban { color: #ccc; } ``` The css classes needed to override can be found by inspecting the component via developer tools (Chrome/Safari/IE/Edge/Firefox). You can also inspect the [source code](/src) or look in [examples](/docs/index.css). ### I do not want the default styles, do I need to fork the project? Absolutely not! Simply do not import the styles (WebPack) or include it in your html (link tags). Roughly, this is the HTML/CSS skeleton rendered by the component: ```pug div.react-dropdown-tree-select div.dropdown a.dropdown-trigger span ul.tag-list li.tag-item input div.dropdown-content ul.root li.node.tree i.toggle.collapsed label input.checkbox-item span.node-label ``` Write your own styles from scratch or copy [existing styles](https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=repo%3Adowjones%2Freact-dropdown-tree-select+language%3ACSS+path%3A%2Fsrc&type=Code&ref=advsearch&l=CSS&l=) and tweak them. Then include your own custom styles in your project. :bulb: Pro tip: Leverage [node's](#data) `className`, `tagClassName` or [action's](#data) `className` prop to emit your own class name. Then override/add css propeties in your class. Remember that last person wins in CSS (unless specificity or `!important` is involved). Often times, this may suffice and may be easier then writing all the styles from the ground up. If you believe this aspect can be improved further, feel free to raise an issue. ### My question is not listed here Find more questions and their answers in the [issue tracker](https://github.com/dowjones/react-dropdown-tree-select/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=%20label%3Aquestion%20). If it still doesn't answer your questions, please raise an issue. ## Development Clone the git repo and install dependencies. ``` npm i // or yarn install ``` You can then run following scripts for local development ``` npm run demo // local demo, watches and rebuilds on changes npm test // test your changes npm lint // fixes anything that can be fixed and reports remaining errors npm run test:cov // test coverage ``` **Note:** If your browser doesn't hot reload or reflect changes during `npm run demo`, then delete `docs/bundle.js` and try again. Before submitting final PR, run `npm run build:docs` to build the bundle.js file again. ## License [![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg)](/LICENSE) Released 2017 by [Hrusikesh Panda](https://github.com/mrchief) @ [Dow Jones](https://github.com/dowjones) ## Contributors Thanks goes to these wonderful people ([emoji key](https://github.com/kentcdodds/all-contributors#emoji-key)):
