IMTreeView

screenshot

IMTreeView is a simple library that allows you to display a tree structure with any UITableView. It is simple, well-tested and documented, and written entirely in Swift.

Take a look at the example project to see it in action!

Requirements

IMTreeView is written in Swift 2, so it requires Xcode 7.

Installation

IMTreeView is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod "IMTreeView"

Usage

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.

  1. Add the following import to the top of your source file:
import IMTreeView
  1. Add a UITableView to the view controller, either through the storyboard, or in code. Set the tableView’s dataSource to be the UIViewController.

  2. Make the UIViewController implement the UITableViewDataSource and IMTreeViewDataSource protocols.

  3. Implement the required methods as shown:

// MARK: UITableViewDataSource

func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
    return 1  // or however many you would like to
}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

    // this allows the tableView to function as a tree
    return tableView.numberOfItemsInSection(section)

}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    // convert the tableView indexPath to a tree-based indexPath
    let treeIndexPath = tableView.treeIndexPathFromTablePath(indexPath)

    // retrieve the data to display
    let node = self.nodeAtIndexPath(treeIndexPath)

    // to determine indentation
    let level = treeIndexPath.length - 2

    // get a cell
    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("identifier", forIndexPath: indexPath)

    // configure cell
    cell.textLabel?.text = node.title
    cell.indentationLevel = level

    return cell
}


// MARK: IMTreeViewDataSource

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfChildrenForIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> Int {
    if indexPath.length == 1 {
        // return the number of root nodes
        return self.nodes.count
    } else {
        // return the number of children of this node
        let node = self.nodeAtIndexPath(indexPath)
        return node.children.count
    }
}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, isCellExpandedAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> Bool {
    return true // if supporting collapsing, you should return whether this indexPath is expanded.
}


// MARK: Helpers

func nodeAtIndexPath(indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> Node {
    // see example project for implementation
}
