A hierarchical list structure component.

## When To Use

Almost anything can be represented in a tree structure. Examples include directories, organization hierarchies, biological classifications, countries, etc. The `Tree` component is a way of representing the hierarchical relationship between these things. You can also expand, collapse, and select a treeNode within a `Tree`.

### Tree props

| Property | Description | Type | Default | Version |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| allowDrop | Whether to allow dropping on the node | ({ dropNode, dropPosition }) => boolean | - |  |
| autoExpandParent | Whether to automatically expand a parent treeNode | boolean | false |  |
| blockNode | Whether treeNode fill remaining horizontal space | boolean | false |  |
| checkable | Adds a `Checkbox` before the treeNodes | boolean | false |  |
| checkedKeys(v-model) | (Controlled) Specifies the keys of the checked treeNodes (PS: When this specifies the key of a treeNode which is also a parent treeNode, all the children treeNodes of will be checked; and vice versa, when it specifies the key of a treeNode which is a child treeNode, its parent treeNode will also be checked. When `checkable` and `checkStrictly` is true, its object has `checked` and `halfChecked` property. Regardless of whether the child or parent treeNode is checked, they won't impact each other. | string\[] \| number\[] \| {checked: string\[] \| number\[], halfChecked: string\[] \| number\[]} | \[] |  |
| checkStrictly | Check treeNode precisely; parent treeNode and children treeNodes are not associated | boolean | false |  |
| defaultExpandAll | Whether to expand all treeNodes by default | boolean | false |  |
| disabled | whether disabled the tree | bool | false |  |
| draggable | Specifies whether this Tree is draggable (IE > 8) | boolean | false |  |
| expandedKeys(v-model) | (Controlled) Specifies the keys of the expanded treeNodes | string\[] \| number\[] | \[] |  |
| fieldNames | Replace the title,key and children fields in treeNode with the corresponding fields in treeData | object | { children:'children', title:'title', key:'key' } | 3.0.0 |
| filterTreeNode | Defines a function to filter (highlight) treeNodes. When the function returns `true`, the corresponding treeNode will be highlighted | function(node) | - |  |
| height | Config virtual scroll height. Will not support horizontal scroll when enable this | number | - |  |
| loadData | Load data asynchronously | function(node) | - |  |
| loadedKeys | (Controlled) Set loaded tree nodes. Need work with `loadData` | string\[] \| number\[] | \[] |  |
| multiple | Allows selecting multiple treeNodes | boolean | false |  |
| selectable | whether can be selected | boolean | true |  |
| selectedKeys(v-model) | (Controlled) Specifies the keys of the selected treeNodes | string\[] \| number\[] | - |  |
| showIcon | Shows the icon before a TreeNode's title. There is no default style; you must set a custom style for it if set to `true` | boolean | false |  |
| showLine | Shows a connecting line | boolean \| {showLeafIcon: boolean}(3.0+) | false |  |
| switcherIcon | customize collapse/expand icon of tree node | v-slot:switcherIcon="{active, checked, expanded, loading, selected, halfChecked, title, key, children, dataRef, data, defaultIcon, switcherCls}" | - |  |
| title | custom title | slot |  | 2.0.0 |
| treeData | treeNode of tree, please use `treeNodes` before v1.1.4 | [TreeNode\[\]](#treenode) | - |  |
| virtual | Disable virtual scroll when set to false | boolean | true | 3.0 |
