正如@Sander提到的，@Halcyon的答案假设一个预先排序的数组，下面的不是。(然而，它假设你已经加载了underscore.js -尽管它可以用香草javascript编写):

Code

// Example usage var arr = [ {'id':1 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':2 ,'parentid' : 1}, {'id':3 ,'parentid' : 1}, {'id':4 ,'parentid' : 2}, {'id':5 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':6 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':7 ,'parentid' : 4} ]; unflatten = function( array, parent, tree ){ tree = typeof tree !== 'undefined' ? tree : []; parent = typeof parent !== 'undefined' ? parent : { id: 0 }; var children = _.filter( array, function(child){ return child.parentid == parent.id; }); if( !_.isEmpty( children ) ){ if( parent.id == 0 ){ tree = children; }else{ parent['children'] = children } _.each( children, function( child ){ unflatten( array, child ) } ); } return tree; } tree = unflatten( arr ); document.body.innerHTML = "<pre>" + (JSON.stringify(tree, null, " ")) <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/underscore.js/1.9.1/underscore-min.js"></script>

需求

它假设属性'id'和'parentid'分别表示id和父id。必须有父ID为0的元素，否则将返回一个空数组。孤儿元素及其后代“丢失”

下面是Steven Harris的一个修改版本，它是普通的ES5，返回一个以id为键的对象，而不是返回顶层和子层的节点数组。

unflattenToObject = function(array, parent) {
  var tree = {};
  parent = typeof parent !== 'undefined' ? parent : {id: 0};

  var childrenArray = array.filter(function(child) {
    return child.parentid == parent.id;
  });

  if (childrenArray.length > 0) {
    var childrenObject = {};
    // Transform children into a hash/object keyed on token
    childrenArray.forEach(function(child) {
      childrenObject[child.id] = child;
    });
    if (parent.id == 0) {
      tree = childrenObject;
    } else {
      parent['children'] = childrenObject;
    }
    childrenArray.forEach(function(child) {
      unflattenToObject(array, child);
    })
  }

  return tree;
};

var arr = [
    {'id':1 ,'parentid': 0},
    {'id':2 ,'parentid': 1},
    {'id':3 ,'parentid': 1},
    {'id':4 ,'parentid': 2},
    {'id':5 ,'parentid': 0},
    {'id':6 ,'parentid': 0},
    {'id':7 ,'parentid': 4}
];
tree = unflattenToObject(arr);

从网上复制 http://jsfiddle.net/stywell/k9x2a3g6/

    function list2tree(data, opt) {
        opt = opt || {};
        var KEY_ID = opt.key_id || 'ID';
        var KEY_PARENT = opt.key_parent || 'FatherID';
        var KEY_CHILD = opt.key_child || 'children';
        var EMPTY_CHILDREN = opt.empty_children;
        var ROOT_ID = opt.root_id || 0;
        var MAP = opt.map || {};
        function getNode(id) {
            var node = []
            for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
                if (data[i][KEY_PARENT] == id) {
                    for (var k in MAP) {
                        data[i][k] = data[i][MAP[k]];
                    }
                    if (getNode(data[i][KEY_ID]) !== undefined) {
                        data[i][KEY_CHILD] = getNode(data[i][KEY_ID]);
                    } else {
                        if (EMPTY_CHILDREN === null) {
                            data[i][KEY_CHILD] = null;
                        } else if (JSON.stringify(EMPTY_CHILDREN) === '[]') {
                            data[i][KEY_CHILD] = [];
                        }
                    }
                    node.push(data[i]);
                }
            }
            if (node.length == 0) {
                return;
            } else {
                return node;
            }
        }
        return getNode(ROOT_ID)
    }

    var opt = {
        "key_id": "ID",              //节点的ID
        "key_parent": "FatherID",    //节点的父级ID
        "key_child": "children",     //子节点的名称
        "empty_children": [],        //子节点为空时,填充的值  //这个参数为空时,没有子元素的元素不带key_child属性;还可以为null或者[],同理
        "root_id": 0,                //根节点的父级ID
        "map": {                     //在节点内映射一些值  //对象的键是节点的新属性; 对象的值是节点的老属性,会赋值给新属性
            "value": "ID",
            "label": "TypeName",
        }
    };

以防有家长需要。参考id 2，它有多个父元素

const dataSet = [{ "ID": 1, "Phone": "(403) 125-2552", "City": "Coevorden", "Name": "Grady" }, {"ID": 2, "Phone": "(403) 125-2552", "City": "Coevorden", "Name": "Grady" }, { "ID": 3, "parentID": [1,2], "Phone": "(979) 486-1932", "City": "Chełm", "Name": "Scarlet" }]; const expectedDataTree = [ { "ID":1, "Phone":"(403) 125-2552", "City":"Coevorden", "Name":"Grady", "childNodes":[{ "ID":2, "parentID":[1,3], "Phone":"(979) 486-1932", "City":"Chełm", "Name":"Scarlet", "childNodes":[] }] }, { "ID":3, "parentID":[], "Phone":"(403) 125-2552", "City":"Coevorden", "Name":"Grady", "childNodes":[ { "ID":2, "parentID":[1,3], "Phone":"(979) 486-1932", "City":"Chełm", "Name":"Scarlet", "childNodes":[] } ] } ]; const createDataTree = dataset => { const hashTable = Object.create(null); dataset.forEach(aData => hashTable[aData.ID] = {...aData, childNodes: []}); const dataTree = []; dataset.forEach(Datae => { if (Datae.parentID && Datae.parentID.length > 0) { Datae.parentID.forEach( aData => { hashTable[aData].childNodes.push(hashTable[Datae.ID]) }); } else{ dataTree.push(hashTable[Datae.ID]) } }); return dataTree; }; window.alert(JSON.stringify(createDataTree(dataSet)));

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; }

我根据@Halcyon的答案写了一个ES6版本

const array = [
  {
    id: '12',
    parentId: '0',
    text: 'one-1'
  },
  {
    id: '6',
    parentId: '12',
    text: 'one-1-6'
  },
  {
    id: '7',
    parentId: '12',
    text: 'one-1-7'
  },

  {
    id: '9',
    parentId: '0',
    text: 'one-2'
  },
  {
    id: '11',
    parentId: '9',
    text: 'one-2-11'
  }
];

// Prevent changes to the original data
const arrayCopy = array.map(item => ({ ...item }));

const listToTree = list => {
  const map = {};
  const roots = [];

  list.forEach((v, i) => {
    map[v.id] = i;
    list[i].children = [];
  });

  list.forEach(v => (v.parentId !== '0' ? list[map[v.parentId]].children.push(v) : roots.push(v)));

  return roots;
};

console.log(listToTree(arrayCopy));

该算法的原理是利用“map”建立索引关系。通过“parentId”可以很容易地在列表中找到“item”，并为每个“item”添加“children”，因为“list”是一个引用关系，所以“roots”将与整个树建立关系。
