Laravel package for working with trees in databases.

Theory:

### Using

[](#using)

Each node has 3 unique indexes: id , lk and rk. To start manipulating the nodes of the tree, we learn the attributes of the node:

```
$prop=array('id'=>5, 'lk'=>3, 'rk'=>8);
```

or any part of:

```
$prop=array('lk'=>3);

$node=(new Node)->prepare($prop);
```

### Select

[](#select)

#### the entire branch in which our node participates:

[](#the-entire-branch-in-which-our-node-participates)

```
$tree = new Categories();
$tree->getEntireBranch($node);
```

#### ancestors of node:

[](#ancestors-of-node)

```
$tree->getAncestors($node);
```

#### ancestors of the node and node together:

[](#ancestors-of-the-node-and-node-together)

```
$tree->getAncestorNode($node);
```

#### Node's descendants:

[](#nodes-descendants)

```
$tree->getDescendant($node);
```

#### the descendants with a node:

[](#the-descendants-with-a-node)

```
$tree->getDescendantNode($node);
```

#### all tree:

[](#all-tree)

```
$tree->getTree();
```

### Add node

[](#add-node)

#### only child node:

[](#only-child-node)

```
$tree->createNode($parantNode, $nodeName);
```

#### rename a node:

[](#rename-a-node)

```
$tree->renameNode($node, $newName)
```

#### delete a node with descendants:

[](#delete-a-node-with-descendants)

```
$tree->deleteNode($node);
```

#### clear everything:

[](#clear-everything)

```
$tree->cleanTree();
```

move a node:
------------

[](#move-a-node)

```
$tree->moveNode($node, $newParent);
```

#### check the integrity of the tree:

[](#check-the-integrity-of-the-tree)

```
$check= new CheckOfTree(new Categories);
$check->inspect();
```
