Overview

The Tree View widget is based on the Kendo UI TreeView Javascript library ( http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/treeview/index ). It summarizes data in tabular format into a tree structure, and then visualizes it. It provides status roll-up and count information on nodes. Each node can be shown with status icon based on the status roll-up, count, and the row data where this node was contained in the original tabular data.

Tree View Widget Configuration Page

This widget expects a typical data collection in tabular format. The configuration basically consists of two parts:

• Decide what columns to be shown in the widget.
• Decide how this widget should function.

1) Decide what columns to be shown in the widget. Each column is corresponding to the level of a tree node. The column level can be re-arranged using the drag and drop in the Column Configuration table. Use the "+" sign on the top right to add column to be shown. Click on "Column" dropdown to pick the column. Additionally attributes to be configured for this column

• Label: Optionally set the Label name to display for the column. Currently this field is not being used.

2) Decide how this widget should function

• Status Rollup: Configuring how status is computed for a node.
  • on  : Enable status rollup in the tree
  • off : No status rollup in the tree
  • Status Column : Choose the field in the tabular data that is indicating a status. Currently, it has to be a numeric field. For instance, a status field has such discrete values, 0, 1, 2,.. 5
  • Status Value Calculation :
    • min : Show the minimum agregrate status in a tree on the top level node
    • max : Show the maximum agregrate status in a tree on the top level node
    • min value : Set the minimun status value in the possible values in the Status Column field
    • max value : Set the maximum status value in the possible values in the Status Column field

• Icon Rules: This icon rules configuration page can be brought up by clicking on the "wrench" icon. This page is used to set how a status is represented by a particular icon. The rule library is implemented by Filtrex javascript library (https://github.com/joewalnes/filtrex/blob/master/README.md)

       Here are the list of sample rules:
       STATUS == 1
       STATUS > 2
       STATUS != 3

• Node Count: Configuring whether Node count is show or not
  • Distinct Count  : Counts represent how may leafs are found within that segment of the tree.
  • Aggregate Count : Counts show the tally of the leafs in the tree; where the leaf has a count of how many items in the data are indexed by that leaf entry.
  • Off  : No node count displaying in the tree node.

• Expand/Collapse buttons : Configuring whether Expand/Collapse buttons is shown or not
  • on  : Show Expand/Collapse buttons only when total node count is less than 1000 in the whole tree
  • off : Do not show Expand/Collapse buttons

• Theme: Set the theme for the widget.
