# tp-tree-nav

`tp-tree-nav` is a low-level, virtualized tree renderer for Lit. It renders what it is given and emits events; parents own state. You can wrap it directly or extend it to add opinionated behavior (selection, expansion, inline actions, empty states, etc.).

## Key ideas
- **Multiple roots**: pass a `roots` array; each node may have `children`.
- **Virtualized list**: uses `@lit-labs/virtualizer` to render a flat, indented list for large trees.
- **Events only**: emits `node-click`, `node-context`, and `node-action` (for chevron toggle, inline actions, and context menu actions). Each event carries `originalEvent` so parents can cancel or coordinate.
- **Opt-in actions**: provide `defaultActions` and per-node `actions`; node actions override defaults on the same `action` key. Use `beforeContextMenu(node, actions)` to modify or block the menu.
- **Custom render**: `renderNode(node, meta)` lets you override row rendering (icons per node type, state-based styling). Common states like `expanded`/`selected` are parent-managed via `node.states` or managed mode.
- **Helpers (pure)**: `getNodesWithState`, `clearState`, `applyStateIf` return new data; parents reassign `roots`.
- **Default icons**: `chevron`, `folder`, `file` are available via `tp-icon`; pass string keys or custom icons.

## Quick example (wrap directly)
```js
import './tp-tree-nav.js';

const tree = document.querySelector('tp-tree-nav');

tree.roots = [
  {
    label: 'Project A',
    slug: 'project-a',
    states: ['expanded'],
    icon: 'folder',
    children: [
      { label: 'main.js', slug: 'main-js', icon: 'file', states: [] },
      {
        label: 'src',
        slug: 'src',
        icon: 'folder',
        states: ['expanded'],
        children: [
          { label: 'index.js', slug: 'index-js', icon: 'file', states: [] },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
];

tree.defaultActions = [
  { label: 'Rename', action: 'rename', icon: 'pencil' },
  { label: 'Delete', action: 'delete', icon: 'delete' },
];

tree.beforeContextMenu = (node, actions) =>
  node.slug === 'project-a' ? actions.filter((a) => a.action !== 'delete') : actions;

// simple toggle handler
const targetPath = (path) => path.join('/');
tree.addEventListener('node-action', (e) => {
  if (e.detail.action !== 'toggle') return;
  const target = targetPath(e.detail.path);
  tree.roots = tree.applyStateIf('expanded', (_n, p) => targetPath(p) === target);
});
```

## Two ways to use it

### A) Wrap directly (keep tp-tree-nav “dumb”)
- Manage all state yourself; set `roots` and optional `defaultActions`/`actions`.
- Listen to `node-action` (chevron/double-click toggles, inline actions, context actions) and `node-click`, mutate your data, then reassign `roots`.
- Use `renderNode` for custom rows; `renderEmpty` for empty states.
- Use helpers (`applyStateIf`, `clearState`, `getNodesWithState`) for immutable transforms/queries.

### B) Extend tp-tree-nav (add opinionated behavior)
Leverage managed mode and hooks in a subclass:

```js
import { TpTreeNav } from './tp-tree-nav.js';

class MyTree extends TpTreeNav {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.manageState = true;          // base tracks expand/select
    this.autoExpandNew = false;       // set true to auto-expand unseen paths
    this.selectionState = 'selected'; // state name for selection
    this.expandOnDoubleClick = true;  // toggle expand via double-click
    this.multiSelect = false;         // enable multi-select if needed
    this.showActions = true;          // render inline actions when present
    this.renderEmpty = () => html`<div class="empty">No items</div>`;
  }

  set data(items) {
    this.items = items; // raw items with slug/label/icon/children/actions
  }

  _renderRow(item, meta) {
    const { node } = item;
    const selected = meta.states.includes(this.selectionState);
    return html`
      <div
        class="row ${selected ? 'selected' : ''}"
        style="--depth:${meta.depth}"
        @click=${(e) => this._onRowClick(item, e)}
      >
        <div class="indent"></div>
        <div
          class="chevron-btn ${meta.expanded ? 'expanded' : ''}"
          ?hidden=${!meta.hasChildren}
          @click=${(e) => this._onChevronClick(item, e)}
        >
          <tp-icon class="icon" .icon=${TpTreeNav.chevron}></tp-icon>
        </div>
        <tp-icon class="icon" .icon=${this._resolveIcon(node.icon)}></tp-icon>
        <div class="label">${node.label}</div>
        ${node.actions?.length
          ? html`<div class="actions">${node.actions.map((action) => html`
              <tp-icon
                class="action-icon"
                .icon=${this._resolveIcon(action.icon)}
                @click=${(e) => this._onInlineAction(item, action, e)}
              ></tp-icon>
            `)}</div>`
          : null}
      </div>
    `;
  }
}

customElements.define('my-tree', MyTree);
```

### Key props when extending
- `items`: raw data (`slug`, `label`, `icon`, `children`, optional `actions`).
- `manageState`: base manages expand/select when true.
- `expandedPaths` / `selectedPaths`: arrays or Sets to seed/restore state.
- `selectionState`: state name for selection (default `'selected'`).
- `multiSelect`: allow multiple selections.
- `expandOnDoubleClick`: toggle expansion on double-click (uses click detail).
- `autoExpandNew`: auto-expand unseen nodes when first seen (default false).
- `applyStates`: `(node, pathParts, states) => extraStates[]` to add custom states.
- `applySelection`: override selection logic `(node, pathParts, states, originalEvent) => nextStates`.
- `applyToggle`: override expand/collapse logic `(node, pathParts, states, originalEvent) => nextStates`.
- `showActions`: render inline actions if provided.
- `renderEmpty`: custom empty renderer.

### Events (both modes)
- `node-click`: emitted on row click.
- `node-action`: emitted for toggles (`action: 'toggle'`, source chevron/double-click), inline actions, and context menu actions.
- `node-context`: before showing context menu; `preventDefault` to cancel.

### Helpers (both modes)
- `TpTreeNav.buildTree(items, { expandedPaths, selectedPaths, selectionState, applyStates, knownPaths, autoExpandNew })` — pure helper used by managed mode; can be used externally.
- `applyStateIf(state, predicate)`, `clearState(state)`, `getNodesWithState(state)` for immutable transforms/queries.

### Data shape
- `slug` (unique per sibling), `label`, `icon` (string key or icon data), `children` (array), optional `actions` (`{ action, label?, icon?, tooltip? }`).
