Remarks

Bind TreeList to Data

Use the Data property to bind the TreeList component to a data source that implements the IEnumerable or IListSource interface. Initialize this data source in the OnInitialized or OnInitializedAsync lifecycle method. Refer to the following topic for more information: Bind Blazor TreeList to Data.

Note

The TreeList component does not support binding to fields with the same name for different types.

The following example binds the TreeList component to a flat data source:

Razor

@inject EmployeeTaskService EmployeeTaskService

<DxTreeList Data="TreeListData" KeyFieldName="Id" ParentKeyFieldName="ParentId">
    <Columns>
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="Name" Caption="Task" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="EmployeeName" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="StartDate" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="DueDate" />
    </Columns>
</DxTreeList>

@code {
    List<EmployeeTask> TreeListData { get; set; }

    protected override void OnInitialized() {
        TreeListData = EmployeeTaskService.GenerateData();
    }
}

EmployeeTask.cs

public class EmployeeTask {
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public int ParentId { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string EmployeeName { get; set; }
    public DateTime StartDate { get; set; }
    public DateTime DueDate { get; set; }
    public int Progress { get; set; }
    public EmployeeTask() { }
    public EmployeeTask(
        int id,
        int parentId,
        string name,
        string employeeName,
        DateTime startDate,
        DateTime dueDate,
        int progress
        )
    {
        Id = id;
        ParentId = parentId;
        Name = name;
        EmployeeName = employeeName;
        StartDate = startDate;
        DueDate = dueDate;
        Progress = progress;
    }
}

Run Demo: Flat Data

Reload Data

The TreeList component automatically reloads data in response to the following actions:

Observable Data Collection Notification

You can bind the TreeList to a data collection that implements the INotifyCollectionChanged or IBindingList interface. These collections notify the TreeList about changes and cause automatic updates. For more information, refer to the following help topic: Observable Data Collections.

Data Instance Change

If you change an instance of a field/property bound to the Data parameter, the TreeList reloads its data in response to this change. You can use this technique if you post updates to the underlying service (such as DbContext EF Core).

Editing-Related Events

You can allow users to edit TreeList data. To process user input and save changes, handle EditModelSaving and DataItemDeleting events. The TreeList reloads its data after the corresponding event handler is executed. For more information, refer to the following help topic: Edit Model in Blazor TreeList.

In other cases, call the Reload() method after the TreeList’s bound data source is changed. The method gets updated data from the source and applies changes to the TreeList.
