Hi Marius.
I would like to know if you have considered using an
AngularJS based tree.
Yes. Event though the File Manager is based on AngularJS, for the
folder tree I've used jsTree.
Does it exists? Why would not it be a better idea
instead of using an
'old-fashion' jQuery tree?
See http://ngmodules.org/modules?query=tree . There are a few, but
nothing mature and far from being as powerful as jsTree. I've checked
the top results and most have only a few commits so they are not
actively maintained. Moreover, their authors don't bother to answer
the user questions on ngmodules.org
AngularJS integrates very well with jQuery so I don't see any problem
in using a (very powerful and mature) jQuery tree.
Thanks,

+1 too.
I assume you’ve checked the license, the community and its activity and
found them compatible?
Thanks

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs Hi devs,
There are a couple of places in XWiki were a tree widget is used or
needed: document index, WYSIWYG editor wiki page linking, XAR import,
navigation panel, database tree list, report step of Distribution
Wizard, extension upgrade when asking confirmation to clean unused
pages, etc. But we don't have a standard / recommended tree widget /
library. We use either SmartClient which is very heavy or a custom
tree based on Prototype.js.
Since we want to ditch the heavy SmartClient tree and we decided to
move away from the dead Prototype.js to jQuery I propose to use jsTree
( http://www.jstree.com/ ) as the standard / recommended library for
creating trees in XWiki.
It is one of the best and most used tree widgets written using jQuery.
I have used jsTree on the File Manager (
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/File+Manager+Applicati…
) and it was a positive experience. Moreover,
there are other
extensions based on, like the Dynamic Hierarchy Macro (
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Dynamic+Hierarchy+Macro
).
My plan is:
* include jsTree in the default distribution (through a webjar
dependency); it won't be loaded by default, obviously; you'll have to
use Require.js to load it.
* start rewriting the current trees using jsTree
Here's my +1.
Thanks,
Marius
