TreeNode Class
A non-leaf SharedTree node. Includes objects, arrays, and maps.
Signature
/** @sealed */
export declare abstract class TreeNode implements WithType
Implements: WithType
Remarks
Base type which all nodes implement.
This can be used as a type to indicate/document values which should be tree nodes. Runtime use of this class object (for example when used with instanceof or extending it), is not currently supported.
Instances of tree nodes must be created by opening an existing document, inserting values into the document, or by using the constructors and create functions of TreeNodeSchema produced by SchemaFactory.
Constructors
| Constructor | Description |
|---|---|
| (constructor)(token) | TreeNodes must extend schema classes created by SchemaFactory, and therefore this constructor should not be invoked directly by code outside this package. |
Static Methods
| Method | Return Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| [Symbol.hasInstance](value) | value is TreeNode | Provides instanceof support for testing if a value is a TreeNode. |
| [Symbol.hasInstance](this, value) | value is InstanceType<TSchema> | Provides instanceof support for all schema classes with public constructors. |
Properties
| Property | Alerts | Modifiers | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [typeNameSymbol] | Deprecated |
readonly |
string | Adds a type symbol for stronger typing. |
| [typeSchemaSymbol] | readonly |
TreeNodeSchemaClass | Adds a type symbol for stronger typing. |
Constructor Details
(constructor)
TreeNodes must extend schema classes created by SchemaFactory, and therefore this constructor should not be invoked directly by code outside this package.
Signature
protected constructor(token: unknown);
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| token | unknown |
Property Details
[typeNameSymbol]
Adds a type symbol for stronger typing.
Use typeSchemaSymbol instead.
Signature
abstract get [typeNameSymbol](): string;
Type: string
[typeSchemaSymbol]
Adds a type symbol for stronger typing.
Signature
abstract get [typeSchemaSymbol](): TreeNodeSchemaClass;
Type: TreeNodeSchemaClass
Method Details
[Symbol.hasInstance]
Provides instanceof support for testing if a value is a TreeNode.
Signature
static [Symbol.hasInstance](value: unknown): value is TreeNode;
Remarks
For more options, like including leaf values or narrowing to collections of schema, use is or schema from TreeNodeApi.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| value | unknown |
Returns
Return type: value is TreeNode
[Symbol.hasInstance]
Provides instanceof support for all schema classes with public constructors.
Signature
static [Symbol.hasInstance]<TSchema extends abstract new (...args: any[]) => TreeNode>(this: TSchema, value: unknown): value is InstanceType<TSchema>;
Type Parameters
| Parameter | Constraint | Description |
|---|---|---|
| TSchema | abstract new (...args: any[]) => TreeNode |
Remarks
For more options, like including leaf values or narrowing to collections of schema, use is or schema from TreeNodeApi.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| this | TSchema | |
| value | unknown |
Returns
Return type: value is InstanceType<TSchema>
