Requirements

iOS 8.0+ / Swift 5.0+

Setup and Usage

This PBTreeView has been drawn over UITableView. Every row/node of the TreeView represents a UITableViewCell with a custom object.

Step 1:

• First you need to arrange some datasource that seems like a tree. Check this JSON datasource as example.
• This JSON data contains RelationshipDetails object as primary unit. This object will contain the information for each node of the tree. This object need to have an unique identifire. In this case, it's social_security_number.

Step 2:

• Create a TreeViewDataHandler object and call it's following function passing the parsed data array

  public func configureTreeViewDatasource(_ relationDetails: [RelationshipDetails]) -> [TreeViewNodeItem]?

  And use the return value of the above function as TreeView's data source. Lile following.

  
  var dataHandler: TreeViewDataHandler? = TreeViewDataHandler()

let relations: [RelationshipDetails]? = readJson(JSON_File_Name) var treeViewDataSource = [TreeViewNodeItem]() treeViewDataSource = (dataHandler?.configureTreeViewDatasource(relations!))!

> Step 3:
* Listen for `RelodeTreeView` notification to relode the TreeView.

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(relodeTreeView(_:)), name: NSNotification.Name(rawValue: "RelodeTreeView"), object: nil)

func relodeTreeView(_ notification: Notification) { self.treeViewDataSource = (dataHandler?.refreshNodes())! DispatchQueue.main.async { self.famityTreeTableView.reloadData() } }

## Customisation

### Setting up `UITableViewCell` and `UITableView`
* Create your own `UITableViewCell` custom subclass for the TreeView node.

### Setting up custom data model
* Just replace `Relations` and `RelationshipDetails` object with your own with proper changes and requirments.

## Up Next
* Dynamic addition and deletion of tree node.
* Dyanmic Data Container
* Dynamic View Holder
