Basic tree structure.

Used for node selection.
:::demo This example also shows how to load node data asynchronously.

</el-tree>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
props: {
label: 'name',
children: 'zones'
},
count: 1
};
},
methods: {
handleCheckChange(data, checked, indeterminate) {
console.log(data, checked, indeterminate);
},
handleNodeClick(data) {
console.log(data);
},
loadNode(node, resolve) {
if (node.level === 0) {
return resolve([{ name: 'Root1' }, { name: 'Root2' }]);
}
if (node.level > 3) return resolve([]);
var hasChild;
if (node.data.name === 'region1') {
hasChild = true;
} else if (node.data.name === 'region2') {
hasChild = false;
} else {
hasChild = Math.random() > 0.5;
}
setTimeout(() => {
var data;
if (hasChild) {
data = [{
name: 'zone' + this.count++
}, {
name: 'zone' + this.count++
}];
} else {
data = [];
}
resolve(data);
}, 500);
}
}
};
</script>:::
:::demo A node's data is not fetched until it is clicked, so the Tree cannot predict whether a node is a leaf node. That's why a drop-down button is added to each node, and if it is a leaf node, the drop-down button will disappear when clicked. That being said, you can also tell the Tree in advance whether the node is a leaf node, avoiding the render of the drop-down button before a leaf node.
<el-tree
:props="props"
:load="loadNode"
lazy
show-checkbox>
</el-tree>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
props: {
label: 'name',
children: 'zones',
isLeaf: 'leaf'
},
};
},
methods: {
loadNode(node, resolve) {
if (node.level === 0) {
return resolve([{ name: 'region' }]);
}
if (node.level > 1) return resolve([]);
setTimeout(() => {
const data = [{
name: 'leaf',
leaf: true
}, {
name: 'zone'
}];
resolve(data);
}, 500);
}
}
};
</script>:::
The checkbox of a node can be set as disabled.
:::demo In the example, 'disabled' property is declared in defaultProps, and some nodes are set as 'disabled:true'. The corresponding checkboxes are disabled and can't be clicked.
<el-tree
:data="data"
:props="defaultProps"
show-checkbox
@check-change="handleCheckChange">
</el-tree>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
data: [{
id: 1,
label: 'Level one 1',
children: [{
id: 3,
label: 'Level two 2-1',
children: [{
id: 4,
label: 'Level three 3-1-1'
}, {
id: 5,
label: 'Level three 3-1-2',
disabled: true
}]
}, {
id: 2,
label: 'Level two 2-2',
disabled: true,
children: [{

label: 'Level three 3-2-1'
}, {

disabled: true
}]
}]
}],
defaultProps: {
children: 'children',
label: 'label',
disabled: 'disabled',
},
};
}
};
</script>:::
Tree nodes can be initially expanded or checked
:::demo Use default-expanded-keys and default-checked-keys to set initially expanded and initially checked nodes respectively. Note that for them to work, node-key is required. Its value is the name of a key in the data object, and the value of that key should be unique across the whole tree.
<el-tree
:data="data"
show-checkbox
node-key="id"
:default-expanded-keys="[2, 3]"
:default-checked-keys="[5]"
:props="defaultProps">

<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
data: [{
id: 1,
label: 'Level one 1',
children: [{
id: 4,
label: 'Level two 1-1',
children: [{
id: 9,
label: 'Level three 1-1-1'
}, {
id: 10,
label: 'Level three 1-1-2'
}]
}]
}, {
id: 2,
label: 'Level one 2',
children: [{
id: 5,
label: 'Level two 2-1'
}, {
id: 6,
label: 'Level two 2-2'
}]
}, {
id: 3,
label: 'Level one 3',
children: [{
id: 7,
label: 'Level two 3-1'
}, {
id: 8,
label: 'Level two 3-2'
}]
}],
defaultProps: {
children: 'children',
label: 'label'
}
};
}
};
</script>:::
:::demo This example shows how to get and set checked nodes. They both can be done in two approaches: node and key. If you are taking the key approach, node-key is required.

The content of tree nodes can be customized, so you can add icons or buttons as you will
:::demo There are two ways to customize template for tree nodes: render-content and scoped slot. Use render-content to assign a render function that returns the content of tree nodes. See Vue's documentation for a detailed introduction of render functions. If you prefer scoped slot, you'll have access to node and data in the scope, standing for the TreeNode object and node data of the current node respectively. Note that the render-content demo can't run in jsfiddle because it doesn't support JSX syntax. In a real project, render-content will work if relevant dependencies are correctly configured.
