jstree jquery plugin - Get all child and sub child nodes of parent

Question

I am using the jsTree jquery plugin

I am trying to fetch all the nodes and sub nodes of a selected parent. But somehow it's not working unless I use recursion. Is there a better way inherent to jsTree?

Answer 1

You can get full tree all by using this selector: $("#demo1").find("li > a")

Answer 2

I tried the previous solution and it is not working with the latest version of jsTree (v3.2.1). Below is an updated solution to get the child nodes and sub nodes of the parent.

$("#myTree").bind('selected_node.jstree', function (node, data) {
    var selectedNodes = $("#myTree").jstree(true).get_json(data.node.id, { flat: true });
    for (var i = 0; i < selectedNodes.length; i++) {
       // Apply logic here
       // ...
       // ...
       // ...
    }
});
