How to maintain expand/collapsed state of rows during page refresh in ASP.NET Core TreeGrid?
2 mins read
This article explains how to maintain expand/collapse state of rows during page refresh in ASP.NET Core TreeGrid.
You can maintain expand/collapse state of rows during page refresh using dataBound event.
- You can save the collapsed records to localStorage in collapsed event of Tree Grid by using the method setItem method.
- On page refresh, dataBound event will be triggered. In that event, retrieve the saved records by using the method getItem method and collapse the specific rows by using the collapseRow method of Tree Grid by passing the row detail.
Index.cshtml
<ejs-treegrid id="TreeGrid" dataSource="@data" childMapping="Children" treeColumnIndex="1" expanded="expanded" collapsed="collapsed" dataBound="ondataBound">
<e-treegrid-columns>
<e-treegrid-column field="TaskId" isPrimaryKey="true" headerText="Task ID" textAlign="Right" width="95"></e-treegrid-column>
<e-treegrid-column field="TaskName" headerText="Task Name" width="220"></e-treegrid-column>
<e-treegrid-column field="StartDate" headerText=" Start Date" textAlign="Right" format="yMd" type="date" width="115"></e-treegrid-column>

let currentData = [];
function collapsed(args) {
currentData.push(args.data);

//storing collapsed record in local storage using setItem method
}

currentData.push(args.data);
store(args);
//storing collapsed record in local storage using setItem method
}
function store(args) {
var treegridObj = document.getElementById("TreeGrid").ej2_instances[0];
currentData.push(...treegridObj.getCurrentViewRecords().filter((i) =>
i.hasChildRecords).filter((i) => !i.expanded)));
currentData = Array.from(new Set(currentData));
window.localStorage.setItem('currentData',JSON.stringify(currentData));
}
function ondataBound(args) {
if (this.initialRender) {
//checking whether it is initial rendering
var data = JSON.parse(window.localStorage.getItem('currentData'));
//retriving collapsed record in local storage using getItem method
if (data) {
var completeData = this.grid.dataSource;
var primaryKeyFieldName = this.getPrimaryKeyFieldNames()[0];
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
var value;
for (var j = 0; j < completeData.length; j++) {
if (completeData[j][primaryKeyFieldName] == data[i][primaryKeyFieldName] ) {
value = completeData[j];
}
}
this.collapseRow(null, value); //collapsing row using collapseRow method
}
this.currentData = [];
window.localStorage.setItem('currentData',JSON.stringify(this.currentData));
}
