jsTree onSelect event

rated 0 times [ 43] [ 5] / answers: 1 / hits: 41282 / 12 Years ago, wed, april 18, 2012, 12:00:00

I've been trying to get the text of a node that is selected in a jsTree. I am able to populate the tree and trigger the onSelect event, but I can't find out which node was clicked. I've seen examples on the net that use data.rslt.obj.attr(data) to fetch the text, however this is returning undefined for me. Additionally, when I try to get the selected node using .jstree('get_selected') I can't find the node text anywhere in the object. How can I get the node text?

Here is my onSelect callback function:

function onSelect(event, data)

{

    // Get the name of the equipment that was selected.

    var selected_node = $(#equipment_tree).jstree('get_selected');

    var equipment_name = data.rslt.obj.attr(data);

}

Update in 2018.

Thanks to @ProfK's comment, the API has changed in new version of jstree. In jstree v3.1.0 (or earlier), the API has changed to:

$(#treeContainer).on(

        select_node.jstree, function(evt, data){

            //selected node object: data.node;

        }

);

For jstree old version (before 2013).

You can get the selected node object and its text by:

$(#treeContainer).bind(

        select_node.jstree, function(evt, data){

            //selected node object: data.inst.get_json()[0];

            //selected node text: data.inst.get_json()[0].data

        }

);
