Usage

import {
  TreeView,
  type TreeNode,
  type TreeViewRef
} from 'react-native-tree-multi-select';

// Refer to the Properties table below or the example app for the TreeNode type
const myData: TreeNode[] = [...];

export function TreeViewUsageExample(){
  const treeViewRef = React.useRef<TreeViewRef | null>(null);
  
  // It's recommended to use debounce for the search function (refer to the example app)
  function triggerSearch(text: string){
    // Pass search text to the tree along with the keys on which search is to be done(optional)
    treeViewRef.current?.setSearchText(text, ["name"]);
  }
  
  // Callback functions for check and expand state changes:
  const handleSelectionChange = (
      _checkedIds: string[],
      _indeterminateIds: string[]
  ) => {
      // NOTE: Handle _checkedIds and _indeterminateIds here
  };
  const handleExpanded = (expandedIds: string[]) => {
    // NOTE: Do something with updated expandedIds here
  };

  // Expand collapse calls using ref
  const expandAllPress = () => treeViewRef.current?.expandAll?.();
  const collapseAllPress = () => treeViewRef.current?.collapseAll?.();
  const expandNodes = (idsToExpand: string[]) => treeViewRef.current?.expandNodes?.(
    idsToExpand
  );
  const collapseNodes = (idsToCollapse: string[]) => treeViewRef.current?.collapseNodes?.(
    idsToCollapse
  );

  // Multi-selection function calls using ref
  const onSelectAllPress = () => treeViewRef.current?.selectAll?.();
  const onUnselectAllPress = () => treeViewRef.current?.unselectAll?.();
  const onSelectAllFilteredPress = () => treeViewRef.current?.selectAllFiltered?.();
  const onUnselectAllFilteredPress = () => treeViewRef.current?.unselectAllFiltered?.();
  const selectNodes = (idsToExpand: string[]) => treeViewRef.current?.selectNodes?.(
    idsToSelect
  );
  const unselectNodes = (idsToCollapse: string[]) => treeViewRef.current?.unselectNodes?.(
    idsToUnselect
  );
  
  return(
    // ... Remember to keep a fixed height for the parent. Read Flash List docs to know why
    <TreeView
      ref={treeViewRef}
      data={myData}
      onCheck={handleSelectionChange}
      onExpand={handleExpanded}
    />
  );
}

Properties

Property	Type	Required	Description
data	TreeNode	Yes	An array of TreeNode objects
onCheck	(checkedIds: string[], indeterminateIds: string[]) => void	No	Callback when a checkbox state changes
onExpand	(expandedIds: string[]) => void	No	Callback when a node is expanded
preselectedIds	string[]	No	An array of ids that should be pre-selected
preExpandedIds	string[]	No	An array of ids that should be pre-expanded
selectionPropagation	SelectionPropagation	No	Control Selection Propagation Behavior. Choose whether you want to auto-select children or parents.
indentationMultiplier	number	No	Indentation (marginStart) per level (defaults to 15)
treeFlashListProps	TreeFlatListProps	No	Props for the flash list
checkBoxViewStyleProps	BuiltInCheckBoxViewStyleProps	No	Props for the checkbox view
CheckboxComponent	ComponentType<CheckBoxViewProps>	No	A custom checkbox component. Defaults to React Native Paper's Checkbox

ExpandCollapseTouchableComponent	ComponentType<TouchableOpacityProps>	No	A custom expand/collapse touchable component
CustomNodeRowComponent	React.ComponentType<NodeRowProps>	No	Custom row item component

ℹ️ data prop is not stateful! You will need to update the key prop to force TreeView to re-render.

ℹ️ If CustomNodeRowComponent is provided then below props are not applied:

1. indentationMultiplier
2. checkBoxViewStyleProps
3. CheckboxComponent
4. ExpandCollapseIconComponent
5. ExpandCollapseTouchableComponent.

⚠️ If the tree view doesn't scroll if rendered in a complex nested scroll view/s then try setting the renderScrollComponent value in treeFlashListProps to ScrollView from react-native-gesture-handler.
