class Hierarchy extends DataExtension (View source)

DataObjects that use the Hierarchy extension can be be organised as a hierarchy, with children and parents. The most obvious example of this is SiteTree.

Properties

$class from  Extension
static private int $node_threshold_total

The lower bounds for the amount of nodes to mark. If set, the logic will expand nodes until it reaches at least this number, and then stops. Root nodes will always show regardless of this settting. Further nodes can be lazy-loaded via ajax. This isn't a hard limit. Example: On a value of 10, with 20 root nodes, each having 30 children, the actual node count will be 50 (all root nodes plus first expanded child).

static private int $node_threshold_leaf

Limit on the maximum children a specific node can display. Serves as a hard limit to avoid exceeding available server resources in generating the tree, and browser resources in rendering it. Nodes with children exceeding this value typically won't display any children, although this is configurable through the $nodeCountCallback parameter in {@link getChildrenAsUL()}. "Root" nodes will always show all children, regardless of this setting.

static private array $hide_from_hierarchy

A list of classnames to exclude from display in both the CMS and front end displays. ->Children() and ->AllChildren affected.

static private array $hide_from_cms_tree

A list of classnames to exclude from display in the page tree views of the CMS, unlike $hide_from_hierarchy above which effects both CMS and front end.

  • '

  • string $extraArg

    Extra arguments that will be passed on to children, for if they overload this function

    Return Value

    string

    int markPartialTree(int $nodeCountThreshold = null, $context = null, $childrenMethod = "AllChildrenIncludingDeleted", $numChildrenMethod = "numChildren")
