DxTreeList.GetEditContext() Method

Returns the edit context.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

#Declaration

C#
public EditContext GetEditContext()

#Returns

Type Description
EditContext

The edit context if the TreeList is being edited; otherwise, null.

#Remarks

Call this method to obtain the TreeList’s edit context. This context allows you to check whether the data item was modified and its field values are valid. If the TreeList is not in edit mode, the GetEditContext method returns null.

The following code snippet checks whether the edit row has unsaved changes:

@inject EmployeeTaskService EmployeeTaskService

<DxTreeList Data="TreeListData"
            KeyFieldName="Id"
            ParentKeyFieldName="ParentId"
            EditModelSaving="TreeList_EditModelSaving"
            DataItemDeleting="TreeList_DataItemDeleting"
            CustomizeEditModel="TreeList_CustomizeEditModel">
    <Columns>
        <DxTreeListCommandColumn />
        <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();
    }
    void TreeList_CustomizeEditModel(TreeListCustomizeEditModelEventArgs e) {
        if(e.IsNew) {
            var newTask = (EmployeeTask)e.EditModel;
            newTask.Id = TreeListData.Max(x => x.Id) + 1;
            if(e.ParentDataItem != null)
                newTask.ParentId = ((EmployeeTask)e.ParentDataItem).Id;
        }
    }
    async Task TreeList_EditModelSaving(TreeListEditModelSavingEventArgs e) {
        if (e.TreeList.GetEditContext().IsModified())
            if(e.IsNew)
                TreeListData.Add((EmployeeTask)e.EditModel);
            else
                e.CopyChangesToDataItem();
    }
    async Task TreeList_DataItemDeleting(TreeListDataItemDeletingEventArgs e) {
        TreeListData.Remove((EmployeeTask)e.DataItem);
    }
}
