Class Details

[line 90]
this class can be used to step through a tree using ['parent'],['child']

the tree is saved as flat data in a db, where at least the parent needs to be given if a previous member is given too then the order on a level can be determined too actually this class was used for a navigation tree now it is extended to serve any kind of tree you can unambigiously refer to any element by using the following syntax tree->data[currentId][<where>]...[<where>] <where> can be either "parent", "child", "next" or "previous", this way you can "walk" from any point to any other point in the tree by using <where> in any order you want example (in parentheses the id): root +---level 1_1 (1) | +----level 2_1 (2) | +----level 2_2 (3) | +-----level 3_1 (4) +---level 1_2 (5)

the database table to this structure (without defined order) id parentId name

  1. 0 level 1_1
  2. 1 level 2_1
  3. 1 level 2_1
  4. 3 level 3_1
  5. 0 level 1_2
now you can refer to elements for example like this (all examples assume you know the structure): go from "level 3_1" to "level 1_1": $tree->data[4]['parent']['parent'] go from "level 3_1" to "level 1_2": $tree->data[4]['parent']['parent']['next'] go from "level 2_1" to "level 3_1": $tree->data[2]['next']['child'] go from "level 2_2" to "level 2_1": $tree->data[3]['previous'] go from "level 1_2" to "level 3_1": $tree->data[5]['previous']['child']['next']['child']

on a pentium 1.9 GHz 512 MB RAM, Linux 2.4, Apache 1.3.19, PHP 4.0.6 performance statistics for version 1.26, using examples/Tree/Tree.php

so you can use it for tiny-big trees too :-) but watch the db traffic, which might be considerable, depending on your setup.

FIXXXME there is one really bad thing about the entire class, at some points there are references to $this->data returned, or the programmer can even access this->data, which means he can change the structure, since this->data can not be set to read-only, therefore this->data has to be handled with great care!!! never do something like this:

  1.  $x &$tree->data[<some-id>]$x $y;
this overwrites the element in the structure !!!

Class Variables

$children = array()

[line 121]

it contains all the parents and their children, where the parentId is the key and all the children are the values, this is for speeding up the tree-building process

Type:   array


[ Top ]

$data = array()

[line 99]

this array contains the pure data from the DB which are always kept, since all other structures will only make references on any element and those data are extended by the elements 'parent' 'children' etc...

Type:   array


[ Top ]

$debug =  0

[line 137]

  • Var: the debug mode, if > 0 then debug info are shown, actually those messages only show performance times
  • Access: public

Type:   integer

Method Detail

Tree_Memory (Constructor)   [line 175]

Tree_Memory Tree_Memory( mixed $type, [array $dsn = ''], [ $options = array()])

set up this object

Parameters:

mixed   $type   —  this is a DSN for the PEAR::DB, can be either an object/string
array   $dsn   —  additional options you can set
   $options   — 

[ Top ]

add   [line 437]

mixed add( array $newValues, [int $parentId = 0], [int $prevId = 0])

adds _one_ new element in the tree under the given parent

the values' keys given have to match the db-columns, because the value gets inserted in the db directly to add an entire node containing children and so on see 'addNode()'


Parameters:

array   $newValues   —  this array contains the values that shall be inserted in the db-table
int   $parentId   —  the parent id
int   $prevId   —  the prevId

[ Top ]

addNode   [line 853]

mixed addNode( array $node)

Adds multiple elements. You have to pass those elements in a multidimensional array which represents the tree structure as it shall be added (this array can of course also simply contain one element).

The following array $x passed as the parameter $x[0] = array('name' => 'bla', 'parentId' => '30', array('name' => 'bla1', 'comment' => 'foo', array('name' => 'bla2'), array('name' => 'bla2_1') ), array('name'=>'bla1_1'), ); $x[1] = array('name' => 'fooBla', 'parentId' => '30');

would add the following tree (or subtree/node) under the parent with the id 30 (since 'parentId'=30 in $x[0] and in $x[1]): +--bla | +--bla1 | | +--bla2 | | +--bla2_1 | +--bla1_1 +--fooBla


Parameters:

array   $node   —  the tree to be inserted, represents the tree structure, see add() for the exact member of each node

[ Top ]

buildStructure   [line 680]

boolean buildStructure( integer $parentId, integer &$insertIn)

builds the structure in the parameter $insertIn this function works recursively down into depth of the folder structure it builds an array which goes as deep as the structure goes
  • Return: returns always true
  • Author: Wolfram Kriesing <wolfram@kriesing.de>
  • Version: 2001/05/02
  • Access: public

Parameters:

integer   $parentId   —  the parent for which it's structure shall be built
integer   &$insertIn   —  the array where to build the structure in given as a reference to be sure the substructure is built in the same array as passed to the function

[ Top ]

copy   [line 1497]

boolean copy( the $srcId, the $destId)

NOT IMPLEMENTED YET copies a part of the tree under a given parent

  • Version: 2001/12/19
  • Access: public

Parameters:

the   $srcId   —  id of the element which is copied, all its children are copied too
the   $destId   —  id that shall be the new parent

[ Top ]

getChild   [line 1117]

void &getChild( mixed $id)

returns the child if the node given has one !!! ATTENTION watch out that you never change any of the data returned, since they are references to the internal property $data

Parameters:

mixed   $id   —  the id of the node to get the child for

[ Top ]

getChildren   [line 1389]

boolean getChildren( $ids, [integer $levels = 1], integer $id)

returns the children of the given ids
  • Return: true if the node has children
  • Author: Wolfram Kriesing <wolfram@kriesing.de>
  • Version: 2001/12/17
  • Access: public

Parameters:

integer   $id   —  the id of the node to check for children
integer   $levels   —  the children of how many levels shall be returned
   $ids   — 

[ Top ]

getElementByPath   [line 1075]

integer &getElementByPath( string $path, [integer $startId = 0], [string $nodeName = 'name'], [string $seperator = '/'])

gets an element given by it's path as a reference
  • Return: the id of the searched element
  • Author: Wolfram Kriesing <wolfram@kriesing.de>
  • Version: 2002/01/21
  • Access: public

Parameters:

[ Top ]

getFirstRoot   [line 1280]

returns &getFirstRoot( )

this gets the first element that is in the root node

i think that there can't be a "getRoot" method since there might be multiple number of elements in the root node, at least the way it works now

  • Return: the first root element

getIdByPath   [line 1225]

integer getIdByPath( string $path, [integer $startId = 0], [string $nodeName = 'name'], [string $seperator = '/'])

boolean move( integer $idsToMove, integer $newParentId, [integer $newPrevId = 0])

move an entry under a given parent or behind a given entry.

!!! the 'move behind another element' is only implemented for nested trees now!!!. If a newPrevId is given the newParentId is dismissed! call it either like this: $tree->move(x, y) to move the element (or entire tree) with the id x under the element with the id y or

  1.       // ommit the second parameter by setting it to 0
