Getting Started with Blazor TreeGrid in Blazor Web App

21 May 20268 minutes to read

This guide explains how to integrate the Syncfusion® Blazor TreeGrid component in your Blazor Web App using Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, and the .NET CLI.

Prerequisites

Create a new Blazor Web App in Visual Studio

Create a Blazor Web App using Visual Studio via Microsoft Templates or the Syncfusion® Blazor Extension. For detailed instructions, refer to the Blazor Web App Getting Started documentation.

Prerequisites

Create a new Blazor Web App in Visual Studio Code

Create a Blazor Web App using Visual Studio Code via Microsoft Templates or the Syncfusion® Blazor Extension. For detailed instructions, refer to the Blazor Web App Getting Started documentation.

For example, in a Blazor Web App with the Auto interactive render mode, use the following commands in the integrated terminal (Ctrl+`):

dotnet new blazor -o BlazorWebApp -int Auto
cd BlazorWebApp
cd BlazorWebApp.Client

Prerequisites

Install the latest version of .NET SDK. If you previously installed the SDK, determine the installed version by executing the following command in a command prompt (Windows) or terminal (macOS) or command shell (Linux).

dotnet --version

Create a Blazor Web App using .NET CLI

Run the following command to create a new Blazor Web App in a command prompt (Windows) or terminal (macOS) or command shell (Linux). For detailed instructions, refer to the Blazor Web App Getting Started documentation.

For example, in a Blazor Web App with the Auto interactive render mode, use the following commands:

dotnet new blazor -o BlazorWebApp -int Auto
cd BlazorWebApp
cd BlazorWebApp.Client

NOTE

Configure the appropriate Interactive render mode and Interactivity location while creating a Blazor Web App. For detailed information, refer to the interactive render mode documentation.

Install Syncfusion® Blazor packages

Install Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid and Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes NuGet packages in your project using the NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio (Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Manage NuGet Packages for Solution), or the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code (dotnet add package), or the .NET CLI.

Alternatively, run the following commands in the Package Manager Console to achieve the same.

Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid -Version 33.2.3
Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -Version 33.2.3

For Blazor Web Apps running in WebAssembly or Auto render mode, the solution includes both Server and Client projects. To fully support client-side features, ensure that all required packages are installed in the Client project.

NOTE

All Syncfusion Blazor packages are available on nuget.org. See the NuGet packages topic for details.

Add import namespaces

After the packages are installed, open the ~/_Imports.razor file in the Client project and import the Syncfusion.Blazor and Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid namespaces.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid

Register Syncfusion® Blazor service

Register the Syncfusion Blazor service in the Program.cs file of your Blazor Web App.

....
using Syncfusion.Blazor;
....
builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
....

NOTE

If the Interactive Render Mode is set to WebAssembly or Auto, register the Syncfusion® Blazor service in Program.cs files of both the server and client projects in your Blazor Web App.

Add stylesheet and script resources

The theme stylesheet and script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Include the stylesheet and script references in the ~/Components/App.razor file.

<link href="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes/fluent2.css" rel="stylesheet" />
....
<script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

NOTE

Check out the Blazor Themes topic to discover various methods (Static Web Assets, CDN, and CRG) for referencing themes in your Blazor application. Also, check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in your Blazor application. Refer to the Style and Appearance topic for customizing the DataGrid appearance and styling options.

Add Syncfusion® Blazor TreeGrid component

Add the Syncfusion® Blazor TreeGrid component in the ~/Pages/*.razor file. If the interactivity location is set to Per page/component in the Web App, define a render mode at the top of the ~/Pages/*.razor file. (For example, InteractiveServer, InteractiveWebAssembly or InteractiveAuto).

@* desired render mode define here *@
@rendermode InteractiveAuto

NOTE

If the Interactivity Location is set to Global with Auto or WebAssembly, the render mode is automatically configured in the App.razor file by default.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid;

<SfTreeGrid DataSource="@TreeData" IdMapping="TaskId" ParentIdMapping="ParentId" TreeColumnIndex="1">
    <TreeGridColumns>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="TaskId" HeaderText="Task ID" Width="80" TextAlign="Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="TaskName" HeaderText="Task Name" Width="160"></TreeGridColumn>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="StartDate" HeaderText="Start Date" Format="d" Type="Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.ColumnType.DateOnly" Width="152" TextAlign="Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>

@code{
   public class BusinessObject
    {
        public int TaskId { get; set; }
        public string TaskName { get; set; }
        public DateOnly? StartDate { get; set; }
        public TimeOnly? StartTime { get; set; }
        public int Duration { get; set; }
        public int Progress { get; set; }
        public string Priority { get; set; }
        public int? ParentId { get; set; }
    }

    public List<BusinessObject> TreeData = new List<BusinessObject>();

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        TreeData.Add(new BusinessObject() { TaskId = 1, TaskName = "Parent Task 1", StartDate = new DateOnly(2021, 03, 02), StartTime = new TimeOnly(10, 00, 00), Duration = 10, Progress = 70, ParentId = null, Priority = "High" });
        TreeData.Add(new BusinessObject() { TaskId = 2, TaskName = "Child task 1", StartDate = new DateOnly(2021, 03, 04), StartTime = new TimeOnly(11, 30, 00), Duration = 4, Progress = 80, ParentId = 1, Priority = "Normal" });
        TreeData.Add(new BusinessObject() { TaskId = 3, TaskName = "Child Task 2", StartDate = new DateOnly(2021, 03, 06), StartTime = new TimeOnly(12, 00, 00), Duration = 5, Progress = 65, ParentId = 1, Priority = "Critical" });
        TreeData.Add(new BusinessObject() { TaskId = 4, TaskName = "Parent Task 2", StartDate = new DateOnly(2021, 03, 08), StartTime = new TimeOnly(13, 30, 00), Duration = 6, Progress = 77, ParentId = null, Priority = "Low" });
        TreeData.Add(new BusinessObject() { TaskId = 5, TaskName = "Child Task 5", StartDate = new DateOnly(2021, 07, 10), StartTime = new TimeOnly(14, 00, 00), Duration = 9, Progress = 25, ParentId = 4, Priority = "Normal" });
        TreeData.Add(new BusinessObject() { TaskId = 6, TaskName = "Child Task 6", StartDate = new DateOnly(2021, 10, 12), StartTime = new TimeOnly(16, 00, 00), Duration = 9, Progress = 7, ParentId = 4, Priority = "Normal" });
    }
}

Run the Application

  • Visual Studio → Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or ⌘+F5 (macOS) to launch the application. This will render the Syncfusion® Blazor TreeGrid component in the default web browser.

  • VS Code / CLI → Run dotnet run in the project directory using the terminal. This will build and launch the application, and you can open the displayed localhost URL in your browser to view the Syncfusion® Blazor TreeGrid component.
