Installation

$ npm i un-flatten-tree

Usage

flatten

Converts tree to list.

var uft = require('un-flatten-tree');
 
var tree = [
    {name: 'A', items: [
        {name: 'B'},
        {name: 'C'}
    ]},
    {name: 'D', items: [
        {name: 'E', items: []}
    ]}
];
 
var list = uft.flatten(
    tree,
    node => node.items, // obtain child nodes
    node => node.name   // create output node
);

list should be ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E']

unflatten

Converts list to tree.

var uft = require('un-flatten-tree');
 
var list = [
    {id: 1, pid: null},
    {id: 2, pid: null},
    {id: 3, pid: 2},
    {id: 4, pid: 3},
    {id: 5, pid: 4}
];
 
var tree = uft.unflatten(
    list,
    (node, parentNode) => node.pid === parentNode.id,  // check if node is a child of parentNode
    (node, parentNode) => parentNode.items.push(node), // add node to parentNode
    node => ({id: node.id, items: []})                 // create output node
);

tree should be

[
    {id: 1, items: []}, 
    {id: 2, items: [
        {id: 3, items: [
            {id: 4, items: [
                {id: 5, items: []}
