React DnD TreeView BB edit
A BB edited treeview library with performance fixes.
A draggable and droppable React treeview component.
You can use render props to create each node freely.
Library usage
- Clone repo
$ npm i
$ npm run watch
- In object-tree repo change the dependancy to your local installation like
"@betty-blocks/react-dnd-treeview": "../react-dnd-treeview"
- Make desired changes in the library
- To view each change build and serve the object-tree repo
Demo and Examples
Some of the examples below use MUI(Material-UI) components, but TreeView does not depend on MUI, so you can use other libraries or your own custom components.

Getting Started
Installation
$ npm i react-dnd @betty-blocks/react-dnd-treeview
Usage
import { useState } from "react";
import {
Tree,
getBackendOptions,
MultiBackend,
} from "@betty-blocks/react-dnd-treeview";
import { DndProvider } from "react-dnd";
import initialData from "./sample-default.json";
function App() {
const [treeData, setTreeData] = useState(initialData);
const handleDrop = (newTreeData) => setTreeData(newTreeData);
return (
<DndProvider backend={MultiBackend} options={getBackendOptions()}>
<Tree
tree={treeData}
rootId={0}
onDrop={handleDrop}
render={(node, { depth, isOpen, onToggle }) => (
<div style={{ marginLeft: depth * 10 }}>
{node.droppable && (
<span onClick={onToggle}>{isOpen ? "[-]" : "[+]"}</span>
)}
{node.text}
</div>
)}
/>
</DndProvider>
);
}
Backends
MultiBackend
is a backend to support both touch and pointer devices. If you only need support for one or the other, you can also use the backend provided by react-dnd-html5-backend or react-dnd-touch-backend.
import { DndProvider } from "react-dnd";
import { HTML5Backend } from "react-dnd-html5-backend";
function App() {
return (
<DndProvider backend={HTML5Backend}>
<Tree {...someProps}> />
</DndProvider>
);
}
import { DndProvider } from "react-dnd";
import { TouchBackend } from "react-dnd-touch-backend";
function App() {
return (
<DndProvider backend={TouchBackend}>
<Tree {...someProps}> />
</DndProvider>
);
}
Backend options
HTML5Backend
, TouchBackend
and MultiBackend
allow setting the BackendOptions defined in react-dnd
.
For more information on TouchBackend
, please see here. (For the HTML5Backend option, only the rootElement
option is available.)
import { DndProvider } from "react-dnd";
import { HTML5Backend, HTML5BackendOptions } from "react-dnd-html5-backend";
import {TouchBackend, TouchBackendOptions} from "react-dnd-touch-backend"
import {Tree, MultiBackend, getBackendOptions} from "@betty-blocks/react-dnd-treeview"
const touchOptions: Partial<TouchBackendOptions> = {
// some options
};
const html5Options: Partial<HTML5BackendOptions> = {
rootElement: document.body,
// some options
};
const multiOptions = {
touch: touchOptions,
html5: html5Options,
}
function App() {
return (
<DndProvider
backend={MultiBackend}
options={getBackendOptions(multiOptions)}
// or
// backend={HTML5Backend}
// options={html5Options}
// or
// backend={TouchBackend}
// options={touchOptions}
>
<Tree {...someProps}> />
</DndProvider>
);
}
Data Structure
To display the treeview, pass data with the following structure to the tree
property of the Tree component.
Basic example
The minimal data structure for representing the tree is shown in the following example
[
{
"id": 1,
"parent": 0,
"droppable": true,
"text": "Folder 1"
},
{
"id": 2,
"parent": 1,
"text": "File 1-1"
},
{
"id": 3,
"parent": 1,
"text": "File 1-2"
},
{
"id": 4,
"parent": 0,
"droppable": true,
"text": "Folder 2"
},
{
"id": 5,
"parent": 4,
"droppable": true,
"text": "Folder 2-1"
},
{
"id": 6,
"parent": 5,
"text": "File 2-1-1"
}
]
Optional data
If you want to pass custom properties to each node's rendering,
you can use the data
property.
[
{
"id": 1,
"parent": 0,
"droppable": true,
"text": "Folder 1"
},
{
"id": 2,
"parent": 1,
"text": "File 1-1",
"data": {
"fileType": "csv",
"fileSize": "0.5MB"
}
},
{
"id": 3,
"parent": 1,
"text": "File 1-2",
"data": {
"fileType": "pdf",
"fileSize": "4.8MB"
}
},
{
"id": 4,
"parent": 0,
"droppable": true,
"text": "Folder 2"
},
{
"id": 5,
"parent": 4,
"droppable": true,
"text": "Folder 2-1"
},
{
"id": 6,
"parent": 5,
"text": "File 2-1-1",
"data": {
"fileType": "image",

attribute of the element you want to set as a handle.By default, no handle is set and the entire node is draggable.See Drag handle for details. |
| options.onToggle | function
| An event handler for the open/close button of a node. |
Drag handle
By default, the entire node is draggable, but the handleRef
render option allows the node to be dragged only by the specified handle, as in the following example.
<Tree
{...props}
render={(node, { handleRef }) => (
<div>
<span ref={handleRef}>[Drag me]</span>
{node.text}
</div>
)}
/>
Dragging preview
By default, the drag preview is a screenshot of a DOM node.
The dragPreviewRender
property allows you to display a custom React component instead of a screenshot.
NOTE:
The default preview is not displayed on touch devices.
Therefore, if you want to support touch devices, please define a custom preview in dragPreviewRender
.
<Tree
{...props}
dragPreviewRender={(monitorProps) => {
const item = monitorProps.item;
return (
<div>
<p>{item.text}</p>
</div>
);
}}
/>

contains the following properties
| Name | Type | Description |
| ------------ | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| item | object
| Node data. (an element in the tree data array)It also includes the ref
property, which is a reference to the HTML element to be dragged. |
| clientOffset | object
| The client offset of the pointer during the dragging operation.It is in the format of {x: number, y: number}
.If the item is not being dragged, it is set to null
. |
onDrop callback
If the tree is modified by drag-and-drop, the changes can be retrieved by the onDrop
callback.
const [treeData, setTreeData] = useState(initialTreeData);
const handleDrop = (
newTree,
{ dragSourceId, dropTargetId, dragSource, dropTarget }
) => {
// Do something
setTreeData(newTree);
};
return <Tree {...props} tree={treeData} onDrop={handleDrop} />;
The arguments passed to the onDrop callback function are as follows
| Name | Type | Description |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| newTree | array
| This data represents the updated TreeView.To redraw the modified TreeView, you need to set this data to the tree
property. |
| options.dragSourceId | number
| string
| undefined
| node id of the dragging source.If the drag source is an element external to DndProvider
or a file or selected text, these will be undefined
. |
| options.dropTargetId | number
| string
| node id of the drop destination.If the drop destination is the root node, it will be the value of the rootId
property. |
| options.dragSource | object
| node item of the dragging source.If the drag source is an element external to DndProvider
or a file or selected text, these will be undefined
. |
| options.dropTarget | object
| undefined
| node item of the drop destination.If the drop destination is the root node, it will be undefined
|
| options.destinationIndex | number
| undefined
| When the sort
property is false
, it indicates the index to which the drag source in the tree data array should be moved.When the sort
property is true
, it will be undefined
. |
| options.relativeIndex | number
| undefined
| When the sort
property is false
, it indicates the relative index of the drop destination with respect to the parent node.When the sort
property is true
, it will be undefined
. |
| options.monitor | object
| Provides various methods for accessing react-dnd's internal state, e.g. for accessing drag sources from outside DndProvider.See this definition for details. |
canDrop callback
By default, it allows dropping to any dropable node (or root node) except its own descendants. This callback can override the default rules.
If it returns nothing or returns undefined
, the default rules will be applied. If it returns a boolean value, it will override the default rules and the droppable property of each node will no longer be referenced.
If it returns false and the user drops the dragged node, no action will be taken and the onDrop callback will not be fired.
This callback takes the same parameters as the onDrop callback, but the first parameter specifies the current tree.
const canDrop = (
currentTree,
{ dragSourceId, dropTargetId, dragSource, dropTarget }
) => {
return true;
// or
return false;
// or
return;
// or
return undefined;
};
return <Tree {...props} tree={treeData} canDrop={canDrop} />;
NOTE:
When overriding the default rules by returning true or false, be careful of inconsistencies in the tree structure.
For example, if you allow dropping from a parent node to a child node as shown in the figure below, inconsistency will occur and the tree will collapse.
Manual sort with placeholder
By default, nodes are automatically sorted and cannot be sorted manually, but by combining some APIs, you can sort them manually and display placeholders as follows.
The following is an example (excerpt) of the implementation of manual sort of nodes and placeholder display.
import { CustomPlaceholder } from "./CustomPlaceholder";
import styles from "./App.module.css";
function App() {
const [treeData, setTreeData] = useState(SampleData);
const handleDrop = (newTree) => setTreeData(newTree);
return (
<Tree
{...props}
tree={treData}
onDrop={handleDrop}
classes={{
placeholder: styles.placeholder,
}}
sort={false}
insertDroppableFirst={false}
canDrop={(tree, { dragSource, dropTargetId }) => {
if (dragSource?.parent === dropTargetId) {
return true;
}
}}
dropTargetOffset={5}
placeholderRender={(node, { depth }) => (
<CustomPlaceholder node={node} depth={depth} />
)}
/>;
);
}
External drag source
To drop elements outside the tree into the tree, extraAcceptTypes
must be set.
If the external drag source is under a DndProvider
, set the type
and item
using useDrag in react-dnd for that element. add the external drag source type
to extraAcceptTypes
so it can be dropped in the tree.
If the external drag source is an element or file external to DndProvider
, adding the type
defined in react-dnd-html5-backend to extraAcceptTypes
will allow dropping into the tree.
In this case, the onDrop
callback will access the dropped element via options.monitor
and add the new node to the data array of tree, as in the following example.
import { NativeTypes } from "react-dnd-html5-backend";
function App() {
const [treeData, setTreeData] = useState(SampleData);
const [lastId, setLastId] = useState(100);
const handleDrop = (tree, options) => {
const { dropTargetId, monitor } = options;
const itemType = monitor.getItemType();
if (itemType === NativeTypes.FILE) {
const files = monitor.getItem().files;
const nodes = files.map((file, index) => ({
id: lastId + index,
parent: dropTargetId,
text: file.name,
}));
const mergedTree = [...tree, ...nodes];
setTree(mergedTree);
setLastId(lastId + files.length);
} else {
setTree(tree);
}
};
return (
<Tree
{...someProps}
tree={treeData}
extraAcceptTypes={[NativeTypes.FILE]}
{/*
extraAcceptTypes={[NativeTypes.URL]}
extraAcceptTypes={[NativeTypes.TEXT]}
extraAcceptTypes={[NativeTypes.HTML]}
*/}
onDrop={handleDrop}
/>;
);
}
Component styling
You are free to define the styling of individual nodes in the tree in your Render props, but the rest of the tree can be styled by specifying the CSS class name for the classes
property.
<Tree
{...props}
classes={{
root: "my-root-classname",
dragOver: "my-dragover-classname",
}}
/>
You can use the following keys for the objects you pass to the classes
property. Neither key is required.
| Name | Description |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| root | CSS class name to give to the top-level container element (by default, ul
tag) that wraps all nodes. |
| container | CSS class name to give to the element wrapping the list of nodes of the same hierarchy (by default, ul
tag). |
| listItem | CSS class name to give to the element that wraps each node item (by default, li
tag). |
| dropTarget | CSS class name to give to the area that can be dropped during a node dragging operation. |
| draggingSource | CSS class name to give to the node during the dragging operation. |
| placeholder | CSS class name to give to the element wrapping the placeholder (by default, li
tag). |
Usage to open / close methods
The open/close status of a node is managed within the Tree component, but the methods for opening and closing nodes are public, so they can be controlled from outside the Tree component.
const ref = useRef(null);
const handleOpenAll = () => ref.current.openAll();
const handleCloseAll = () => ref.current.closeAll();
// open /close method can be passed a node ID or an array of node IDs
const handleOpen = (nodeId) => ref.current.open(nodeId);
const handleClose = (nodeId) => ref.current.close(nodeId);
<Tree
ref={ref}
{...props}
>
<button onClick={handleOpenAll}>Open All Folders</button>
<button onClick={handleCloseAll}>Close All Folders</button>
<button onClick={handleOpen}>Open specific folder(s)</button>
<button onClick={handleClose}>Close specific folder(s)</button>
