Calculate column value based on other columns in Blazor TreeGrid

12 Oct 20217 minutes to read

The values for a Tree Grid column can be calculated based on other column values by using the context parameter in the Template property of the TreeGridColumn component. Inside the Template, the column values can be accessed using the implicit named parameter context and then calculate the values for the new column as required.

This is demonstrated in the following sample code where the value for Resources column is calculated based on the values of Duration and Progress columns.

@using TreeGridComponent.Data;
@using  Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids;
@using  Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid;

<SfTreeGrid DataSource="@TreeGridData" IdMapping="TaskId" ParentIdMapping="ParentId" AllowPaging="true" TreeColumnIndex="1" AllowSorting="true">
        <TreeGridColumns>
            <TreeGridColumn Field="TaskId" HeaderText="Task ID" Width="70" TextAlign="TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
            <TreeGridColumn Field="TaskName" HeaderText="Task Name" Width="85"></TreeGridColumn>
            <TreeGridColumn Field="Priority" HeaderText="Priority" Width="60"></TreeGridColumn>
            <TreeGridColumn Field="Duration" HeaderText="Duration" Width="60" Format="C2" TextAlign="TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
            <TreeGridColumn Field="Progress" HeaderText="Progress" Width="60" Format="C2" TextAlign="TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
            <TreeGridColumn Field="Resources" HeaderText="Resources" Width="70" Format="C2" TextAlign="TextAlign.Right">
                <Template>
                    @{
                        var value = (context as TreeData);
                        var finalValue = value.Duration + value.Progress;
                        <p>$@finalValue</p>
                    }
                </Template>
            </TreeGridColumn>
        </TreeGridColumns>

        public List<TreeData> TreeGridData { get; set; }
        protected override void OnInitialized()
        {
            this.TreeGridData = TreeData.GetSelfDataSource().ToList();

        public static List<TreeData> GetSelfDataSource()
        {
            List<TreeData> TreeDataCollection = new List<TreeData>();
            TreeDataCollection.Add(new TreeData() { TaskId = 1, TaskName = "Parent Task 1", Duration = 10, Progress = 70, Priority = "Critical", ParentId = null });
            TreeDataCollection.Add(new TreeData() { TaskId = 2, TaskName = "Child task 1", Progress = 80, Priority = "Low", Duration = 50, ParentId = 1 });
