你可以使用npm包数组到树https://github.com/alferov/array-to-tree。 它将普通的节点数组(带有指向父节点的指针)转换为嵌套的数据结构。

解决了从数据库数据集检索到嵌套数据结构(即导航树)的转换问题。

用法:

var arrayToTree = require('array-to-tree');

var dataOne = [
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'Portfolio',
    parent_id: undefined
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    name: 'Web Development',
    parent_id: 1
  },
  {
    id: 3,
    name: 'Recent Works',
    parent_id: 2
  },
  {
    id: 4,
    name: 'About Me',
    parent_id: undefined
  }
];

arrayToTree(dataOne);

/*
 * Output:
 *
 * Portfolio
 *   Web Development
 *     Recent Works
 * About Me
 */

我已经编写了一个测试脚本来评估用户shekhardtu(见答案)和FurkanO(见答案)提出的两种最通用的解决方案的性能(意味着输入不需要事先排序，代码不依赖于第三方库)。

http://playcode.io/316025?tabs=console&script.js&output

FurkanO的解决方案似乎是最快的。

/* ** performance test for https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18017869/build-tree-array-from-flat-array-in-javascript */ // Data Set (e.g. nested comments) var comments = [{ id: 1, parent_id: null }, { id: 2, parent_id: 1 }, { id: 3, parent_id: 4 }, { id: 4, parent_id: null }, { id: 5, parent_id: 4 }]; // add some random entries let maxParentId = 10000; for (let i=6; i<=maxParentId; i++) { let randVal = Math.floor((Math.random() * maxParentId) + 1); comments.push({ id: i, parent_id: (randVal % 200 === 0 ? null : randVal) }); } // solution from user "shekhardtu" (https://stackoverflow.com/a/55241491/5135171) const nest = (items, id = null, link = 'parent_id') => items .filter(item => item[link] === id) .map(item => ({ ...item, children: nest(items, item.id) })); ; // solution from user "FurkanO" (https://stackoverflow.com/a/40732240/5135171) const createDataTree = dataset => { let hashTable = Object.create(null) dataset.forEach( aData => hashTable[aData.id] = { ...aData, children : [] } ) let dataTree = [] dataset.forEach( aData => { if( aData.parent_id ) hashTable[aData.parent_id].children.push(hashTable[aData.id]) else dataTree.push(hashTable[aData.id]) } ) return dataTree }; /* ** lets evaluate the timing for both methods */ let t0 = performance.now(); let createDataTreeResult = createDataTree(comments); let t1 = performance.now(); console.log("Call to createDataTree took " + Math.floor(t1 - t0) + " milliseconds."); t0 = performance.now(); let nestResult = nest(comments); t1 = performance.now(); console.log("Call to nest took " + Math.floor(t1 - t0) + " milliseconds."); //console.log(nestResult); //console.log(createDataTreeResult); // bad, but simple way of comparing object equality console.log(JSON.stringify(nestResult)===JSON.stringify(createDataTreeResult));

var data = [{"country":"india","gender":"male","type":"lower","class":"X"}, {"country":"china","gender":"female","type":"upper"}, {"country":"india","gender":"female","type":"lower"}, {"country":"india","gender":"female","type":"upper"}]; var seq = ["country","type","gender","class"]; var treeData = createHieArr(data,seq); console.log(treeData) function createHieArr(data,seq){ var hieObj = createHieobj(data,seq,0), hieArr = convertToHieArr(hieObj,"Top Level"); return [{"name": "Top Level", "parent": "null", "children" : hieArr}] function convertToHieArr(eachObj,parent){ var arr = []; for(var i in eachObj){ arr.push({"name":i,"parent":parent,"children":convertToHieArr(eachObj[i],i)}) } return arr; } function createHieobj(data,seq,ind){ var s = seq[ind]; if(s == undefined){ return []; } var childObj = {}; for(var ele of data){ if(ele[s] != undefined){ if(childObj[ele[s]] == undefined){ childObj[ele[s]] = []; } childObj[ele[s]].push(ele); } } ind = ind+1; for(var ch in childObj){ childObj[ch] = createHieobj(childObj[ch],seq,ind) } return childObj; } }

也可以使用lodashjs(v4.x)

function buildTree(arr){
  var a=_.keyBy(arr, 'id')
  return _
   .chain(arr)
   .groupBy('parentId')
   .forEach(function(v,k){ 
     k!='0' && (a[k].children=(a[k].children||[]).concat(v));
   })
   .result('0')
   .value();
}

更新2022

这是一个针对无序项的建议。该函数使用单个循环和哈希表，并收集所有带有id的项。如果找到根节点，则将该对象添加到结果数组中。

const getTree = (data, root) => { const t = {}; data.forEach(o => ((t[o.parentId] ??= {}).children ??= []).push(Object.assign(t[o.id] ??= {}, o))); return t[root].children; }, data = { People: [{ id: "12", parentId: "0", text: "Man", level: "1", children: null }, { id: "6", parentId: "12", text: "Boy", level: "2", children: null }, { id: "7", parentId: "12", text: "Other", level: "2", children: null }, { id: "9", parentId: "0", text: "Woman", level: "1", children: null }, { id: "11", parentId: "9", text: "Girl", level: "2", children: null }], Animals: [{ id: "5", parentId: "0", text: "Dog", level: "1", children: null }, { id: "8", parentId: "5", text: "Puppy", level: "2", children: null }, { id: "10", parentId: "13", text: "Cat", level: "1", children: null }, { id: "14", parentId: "13", text: "Kitten", level: "2", children: null }] }, result = Object.fromEntries(Object .entries(data) .map(([k, v]) => [k, getTree(v, '0')]) ); console.log(result); .as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }

ES6地图版本:

getTreeData = (items) => {
  if (items && items.length > 0) {
    const data = [];
    const map = {};
    items.map((item) => {
      const id = item.id; // custom id selector !!!
      if (!map.hasOwnProperty(id)) {
        // in case of duplicates
        map[id] = {
          ...item,
          children: [],
        };
      }
    });
    for (const id in map) {
      if (map.hasOwnProperty(id)) {
        let mappedElem = [];
        mappedElem = map[id];
        /// parentId : use custom id selector for parent
        if (
          mappedElem.parentId &&
          typeof map[mappedElem.parentId] !== "undefined"
        ) {
          map[mappedElem.parentId].children.push(mappedElem);
        } else {
          data.push(mappedElem);
        }
      }
    }
    return data;
  }
  return [];
};

/// use like this :

const treeData = getTreeData(flatList);
