Tree

<wa-tree> Since 2.0 Stable

Trees allow you to display a hierarchical list of selectable tree items. Items with children can be expanded and collapsed as desired by the user.

Parent Node Child Node 1 Child Node 2 Child Node 2 - 1 Child Node 2 - 2 
<wa-tree selection="multiple">

Examples

Selection Modes

The selection attribute lets you change the selection behavior of the tree.

Single Multiple Leaf
Item 1 Item A Item Z Item Y Item X Item B Item C Item 2 Item 3 
<wa-select id="selection-mode" value="single" label="Selection">
  <wa-option value="single">Single</wa-option>
  <wa-option value="multiple">Multiple</wa-option>
  <wa-option value="leaf">Leaf</wa-option>
</wa-select>

<br />

<wa-tree class="tree-selectable">
  <wa-tree-item>
    Item 1
    <wa-tree-item>
      Item A
      <wa-tree-item>Item Z</wa-tree-item>
      <wa-tree-item>Item Y</wa-tree-item>
      <wa-tree-item>Item X</wa-tree-item>
    </wa-tree-item>
    <wa-tree-item>Item B</wa-tree-item>
    <wa-tree-item>Item C</wa-tree-item>
  </wa-tree-item>
  <wa-tree-item>Item 2</wa-tree-item>
  <wa-tree-item>Item 3</wa-tree-item>
</wa-tree>

<script>
  const selectionMode = document.querySelector('#selection-mode');
  const tree = document.querySelector('.tree-selectable');

  selectionMode.addEventListener('change', () => {
    tree.querySelectorAll('wa-tree-item').forEach(item => (item.selected = false));
    tree.selection = selectionMode.value;
  });
</script>

Showing Indent Guides

Indent guides can be drawn by setting --indent-guide-width. You can also change the color, offset, and style, using --indent-guide-color, --indent-guide-style, and --indent-guide-offset, respectively.

  </wa-tree-item>
</wa-tree>

<style>
  .tree-with-lines {
    --indent-guide-width: 1px;
  }
</style>

Lazy Loading

Use the lazy attribute on a tree item to indicate that the content is not yet present and will be loaded later. When the user tries to expand the node, the loading state is set to true and the wa-lazy-load event will be emitted to allow you to load data asynchronously. The item will remain in a loading state until its content is changed.

If you want to disable this behavior after the first load, simply remove the lazy attribute and, on the next expand, the existing content will be shown instead.

Available Trees 
<wa-tree>
  <wa-tree-item lazy>Available Trees</wa-tree-item>
</wa-tree>

<script type="module">
  const lazyItem = document.querySelector('wa-tree-item[lazy]');

  lazyItem.addEventListener('wa-lazy-load', () => {
    // Simulate asynchronous loading
    setTimeout(() => {
      const subItems = ['Birch', 'Cedar', 'Maple', 'Pine'];

      for (const item of subItems) {
        const treeItem = document.createElement('wa-tree-item');
        treeItem.innerText = item;
        lazyItem.append(treeItem);
      }

      // Disable lazy mode once the content has been loaded
      lazyItem.lazy = false;
    }, 1000);
  });
</script>

Customizing the Expand and Collapse Icons

Use the expand-icon and collapse-icon slots to change the expand and collapse icons, respectively. To disable the animation, override the rotate property on the expand-button part as shown below.

    <wa-tree-item>Cactus</wa-tree-item>
    <wa-tree-item>Fern</wa-tree-item>
  </wa-tree-item>
</wa-tree>

<style>
  .custom-icons wa-tree-item::part(expand-button) {
    /* Disable the expand/collapse animation */
    rotate: none;
  }
</style>

With Icons

Decorative icons can be used before labels to provide hints for each node.
