Yii 2.0 implementation of nested set behavior using jquery.nestable plugin.
- jquery.nestable plugin: http://dbushell.github.io/Nestable/
- Nested Sets Behavior for Yii 2: https://github.com/creocoder/yii2-nested-sets
The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.
Either run
$ php composer.phar require slatiusa/yii2-nestable "dev-master"
or add
"slatiusa/yii2-nestable": "dev-master"
to the require section of your composer.json file.
Make sure you've attached the NestedSetsBehavior (creocoder/yii2-nested-sets) correctly to your model. Then add the node move handler to you controller by attaching the supplied action;
use slatiusa\nestable\Nestable;
class yourClass extends Controller
{
public function actions() {
return [
'nodeMove' => [
'class' => 'slatiusa\nestable\NodeMoveAction',
'modelName' => TreeModel::className(),
],
];
}
And then render the widget in your view;
echo Nestable::widget([
'type' => Nestable::TYPE_WITH_HANDLE,
'query' => TreeModel::find()->where([ top of tree ]),
'modelOptions' => [
'name' => 'name'
],
'pluginEvents' => [
'change' => 'function(e) {}',
],
'pluginOptions' => [
'maxDepth' => 7,
],
]);
You can either supply an ActiveQuery object in query from which a tree will be built.
You can also supply an item list;
...
'items' => [
['content' => 'Item # 1', 'id' => 1],
['content' => 'Item # 2', 'id' => 2],
['content' => 'Item # 3', 'id' => 3],
['content' => 'Item # 4 with children', 'id' => 4, 'children' => [
['content' => 'Item # 4.1', 'id' => 5],
['content' => 'Item # 4.2', 'id' => 6],
['content' => 'Item # 4.3', 'id' => 7],
]],
],
The modelOptions['name'] should hold an attribute name that will be used to name on the items in the list.
You can alternatively supply an unnamed function($model) to build your own content string.
Supply a pluginEvents['change'] with some JavaScript code to catch the change event fired by jquery.nestable plugin.
The pluginOptions accepts all the options for the original jquery.nestable plugin.
