Question: Once a search item is found, how to display and open its children nodes?

Open jbham opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

Hello! Thank you for this great library! Really appreciate your effort in saving so much time for so many people!

Let me ask my question with an example:

Let's suppose I have below structure:

Grand Parent

Parent

Children Children0.5

Grand Parent 1

Parent 1

Children 1.1 Children 1.2

If I search for "Parent 1", currently it will only show "Parent 1". What I am looking, if possible, is "Parent 1" to show but at the same time "Children 1" opens as well...or clicking on "Parent 1" opens its children.

Similarly, if I search for "Grand Parent 1", it should allow to display "Parent 1" and "Children 1.1" and "Children 1.2".

Would this be possible?

Hi, thanks for bringing this up.

I had the same thought when I built this component, and decided to let it sink a bit and just built the simplest search. Indeed it's possible, and the next request would probably be: the fold/expand behaviour should also continue to work while searching (currently it will expand everything regardless).

Any further inspirations are welcome 😃. Feel free to send your PR as well.
