# Nested Sets Behavior for Yii 2
[](https://travis-ci.org/creocoder/yii2-nested-sets)
[](https://scrutinizer-ci.com/g/creocoder/yii2-nested-sets/?branch=master)
A modern nested sets behavior for the Yii framework utilizing the Modified Preorder Tree Traversal algorithm.
## Installation
The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).
Either run
```bash
$ php composer.phar require creocoder/yii2-nested-sets:dev-master
```
or add
```
"creocoder/yii2-nested-sets": "dev-master"
```
to the `require` section of your `composer.json` file.
## Migrations
Run the following command
```bash
$ yii migrate/create create_menu_table
```
Open the `/path/to/migrations/m_xxxxxx_xxxxxx_create_menu_table.php` file,
inside the `up()` method add the following
```php
$this->createTable('{{%menu}}', [
'id' => Schema::TYPE_PK,
// 'tree' => Schema::TYPE_INTEGER,
'lft' => Schema::TYPE_INTEGER . ' NOT NULL',
'rgt' => Schema::TYPE_INTEGER . ' NOT NULL',
'depth' => Schema::TYPE_INTEGER . ' NOT NULL',
'name' => Schema::TYPE_STRING . ' NOT NULL',
]);
```
To use multiple tree mode uncomment `tree` field.
## Configuring
Configure model as follows
```php
use creocoder\nestedsets\NestedSetsBehavior;
class Menu extends \yii\db\ActiveRecord
{
public function behaviors() {
return [
'tree' => [
'class' => NestedSetsBehavior::className(),
// 'treeAttribute' => 'tree',
// 'leftAttribute' => 'lft',
// 'rightAttribute' => 'rgt',
// 'depthAttribute' => 'depth',
],
];
}
public function transactions()
{
return [
self::SCENARIO_DEFAULT => self::OP_ALL,
];
}
public static function find()
{
return new MenuQuery(get_called_class());
}
}
```
To use multiple tree mode uncomment `treeAttribute` array key inside `behaviors()` method.
Configure query class as follows
```php
use creocoder\nestedsets\NestedSetsQueryBehavior;
class MenuQuery extends \yii\db\ActiveQuery
{
public function behaviors() {
return [
NestedSetsQueryBehavior::className(),
];
}
}
```
## Usage
### Making a root node
To make a root node
```php
$countries = new Menu(['name' => 'Countries']);
$countries->makeRoot();
```
The tree will look like this
```
- Countries
```
### Prepending a node as the first child of another node
To prepend a node as the first child of another node
```php
$russia = new Menu(['name' => 'Russia']);
$russia->prependTo($countries);
```
The tree will look like this
```
- Countries
- Russia
```
### Appending a node as the last child of another node
To append a node as the last child of another node
```php
$australia = new Menu(['name' => 'Australia']);
$australia->appendTo($countries);
```
The tree will look like this
```
- Countries
- Russia
- Australia
```
### Inserting a node before another node
To insert a node before another node
```php
$newZeeland = new Menu(['name' => 'New Zeeland']);
$newZeeland->insertBefore($australia);
```
The tree will look like this
```
- Countries
- Russia
- New Zeeland
- Australia
```
### Inserting a node after another node
To insert a node after another node
```php
$unitedStates = new Menu(['name' => 'United States']);
$unitedStates->insertAfter($australia);
```
The tree will look like this
```
- Countries
- Russia
- New Zeeland
- Australia
- United States
```
### Getting the root nodes
To get all the root nodes
```php
$roots = Menu::find()->roots()->all();
```
### Getting the leaves nodes
To get all the leaves nodes
```php
$leaves = Menu::find()->leaves()->all();
```
To get all the leaves of a node
```php
$countries = Menu::findOne(['name' => 'Countries']);
$leaves = $countries->leaves()->all();
```
### Getting children of a node
To get all the children of a node
```php
$countries = Menu::findOne(['name' => 'Countries']);
$children = $countries->children()->all();
```
To get the first level children of a node
```php
$countries = Menu::findOne(['name' => 'Countries']);
$children = $countries->children(1)->all();
```
### Getting parents of a node
To get all the parents of a node
```php
$countries = Menu::findOne(['name' => 'Countries']);
$parents = $countries->parents()->all();
```
To get the first parent of a node
```php
$countries = Menu::findOne(['name' => 'Countries']);
$parent = $countries->parents(1)->one();
```
