正如@Sander提到的，@Halcyon的答案假设一个预先排序的数组，下面的不是。(然而，它假设你已经加载了underscore.js -尽管它可以用香草javascript编写):

Code

// Example usage var arr = [ {'id':1 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':2 ,'parentid' : 1}, {'id':3 ,'parentid' : 1}, {'id':4 ,'parentid' : 2}, {'id':5 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':6 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':7 ,'parentid' : 4} ]; unflatten = function( array, parent, tree ){ tree = typeof tree !== 'undefined' ? tree : []; parent = typeof parent !== 'undefined' ? parent : { id: 0 }; var children = _.filter( array, function(child){ return child.parentid == parent.id; }); if( !_.isEmpty( children ) ){ if( parent.id == 0 ){ tree = children; }else{ parent['children'] = children } _.each( children, function( child ){ unflatten( array, child ) } ); } return tree; } tree = unflatten( arr ); document.body.innerHTML = "<pre>" + (JSON.stringify(tree, null, " ")) <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/underscore.js/1.9.1/underscore-min.js"></script>

需求

它假设属性'id'和'parentid'分别表示id和父id。必须有父ID为0的元素，否则将返回一个空数组。孤儿元素及其后代“丢失”

下面是Steven Harris的一个修改版本，它是普通的ES5，返回一个以id为键的对象，而不是返回顶层和子层的节点数组。

unflattenToObject = function(array, parent) {
  var tree = {};
  parent = typeof parent !== 'undefined' ? parent : {id: 0};

  var childrenArray = array.filter(function(child) {
    return child.parentid == parent.id;
  });

  if (childrenArray.length > 0) {
    var childrenObject = {};
    // Transform children into a hash/object keyed on token
    childrenArray.forEach(function(child) {
      childrenObject[child.id] = child;
    });
    if (parent.id == 0) {
      tree = childrenObject;
    } else {
      parent['children'] = childrenObject;
    }
    childrenArray.forEach(function(child) {
      unflattenToObject(array, child);
    })
  }

  return tree;
};

var arr = [
    {'id':1 ,'parentid': 0},
    {'id':2 ,'parentid': 1},
    {'id':3 ,'parentid': 1},
    {'id':4 ,'parentid': 2},
    {'id':5 ,'parentid': 0},
    {'id':6 ,'parentid': 0},
    {'id':7 ,'parentid': 4}
];
tree = unflattenToObject(arr);

有同样的问题，但我不能确定数据是否已排序。我不能使用第三方库，所以这只是香草Js;输入数据可以从@Stephen的例子中获取;

var arr = [ {'id':1 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':4 ,'parentid' : 2}, {'id':3 ,'parentid' : 1}, {'id':5 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':6 ,'parentid' : 0}, {'id':2 ,'parentid' : 1}, {'id':7 ,'parentid' : 4}, {'id':8 ,'parentid' : 1} ]; function unflatten(arr) { var tree = [], mappedArr = {}, arrElem, mappedElem; // First map the nodes of the array to an object -> create a hash table. for(var i = 0, len = arr.length; i < len; i++) { arrElem = arr[i]; mappedArr[arrElem.id] = arrElem; mappedArr[arrElem.id]['children'] = []; } for (var id in mappedArr) { if (mappedArr.hasOwnProperty(id)) { mappedElem = mappedArr[id]; // If the element is not at the root level, add it to its parent array of children. if (mappedElem.parentid) { mappedArr[mappedElem['parentid']]['children'].push(mappedElem); } // If the element is at the root level, add it to first level elements array. else { tree.push(mappedElem); } } } return tree; } var tree = unflatten(arr); document.body.innerHTML = "<pre>" + (JSON.stringify(tree, null, " "))

JS小提琴

平面阵列到树

(奖励1:节点可以排序，也可以不排序)

(bonus2:不需要第三方库，纯js)

(BONUS3:用户“Elias Rabl”说这是最高效的解决方案，见下面他的回答)

下面就是:

const createDataTree = dataset => {
  const hashTable = Object.create(null);
  dataset.forEach(aData => hashTable[aData.ID] = {...aData, childNodes: []});
  const dataTree = [];
  dataset.forEach(aData => {
    if(aData.parentID) hashTable[aData.parentID].childNodes.push(hashTable[aData.ID])
    else dataTree.push(hashTable[aData.ID])
  });
  return dataTree;
};

下面是一个测试，它可能会帮助你理解解决方案是如何工作的:

it('creates a correct shape of dataTree', () => {
  const dataSet = [{
    "ID": 1,
    "Phone": "(403) 125-2552",
    "City": "Coevorden",
    "Name": "Grady"
  }, {
    "ID": 2,
    "parentID": 1,
    "Phone": "(979) 486-1932",
    "City": "Chełm",
    "Name": "Scarlet"
  }];

  const expectedDataTree = [{
    "ID": 1,
    "Phone": "(403) 125-2552",
    "City": "Coevorden",
    "Name": "Grady",
    childNodes: [{
      "ID": 2,
      "parentID": 1,
      "Phone": "(979) 486-1932",
      "City": "Chełm",
      "Name": "Scarlet",
      childNodes : []
    }]
  }];

  expect(createDataTree(dataSet)).toEqual(expectedDataTree);
});

我使用@FurkanO answer并创建了一个可以用于任何对象类型的泛型函数，我还用TypeScript写了这个函数，我更喜欢它，因为它有自动补全功能。

实现:

1. Javascript:

export const flatListToTree = (flatList, idPath, parentIdPath, childListPath, isParent) => {
  const rootParents = [];
  const map = {};
  for (const item of flatList) {
    if (!item[childListPath]) item[childListPath] = [];
    map[item[idPath]] = item;
  }
  for (const item of flatList) {
    const parentId = item[parentIdPath];
    if (isParent(item)) {
      rootParents.push(item);
    } else {
      const parentItem = map[parentId];
      parentItem[childListPath].push(item);
    }
  }
  return rootParents;
};

2. TypeScript:我假设“T”类型有一个属性的孩子列表，你可以改变“childListPath”是一个字符串而不是“keyof T”如果你有不同的用例。

export const flatListToTree = <T>(
  flatList: T[],
  idPath: keyof T,
  parentIdPath: keyof T,
  childListPath: keyof T,
  isParent: (t: T) => boolean,
) => {
  const rootParents: T[] = [];
  const map: any = {};
  for (const item of flatList) {
    if (!(item as any)[childListPath]) (item as any)[childListPath] = [];
    map[item[idPath]] = item;
  }
  for (const item of flatList) {
    const parentId = item[parentIdPath];
    if (isParent(item)) {
      rootParents.push(item);
    } else {
      const parentItem = map[parentId];
      parentItem[childListPath].push(item);
    }
  }
  return rootParents;
};

使用方法:

  const nodes = [
    { id: 2, pid: undefined, children: [] },
    { id: 3, pid: 2 },
    { id: 4, pid: 2 },
    { id: 5, pid: 4 },
    { id: 6, pid: 5 },
    { id: 7, pid: undefined },
    { id: 8, pid: 7 },
  ];
  
  const result = flatListToTree(nodes, "id", "pid", "children", node => node.pid === undefined);

这是我在一个react项目中使用的

// ListToTree.js
import _filter from 'lodash/filter';
import _map from 'lodash/map';

export default (arr, parentIdKey) => _map(_filter(arr, ar => !ar[parentIdKey]), ar => ({
  ...ar,
  children: _filter(arr, { [parentIdKey]: ar.id }),
}));

用法:

// somewhere.js
import ListToTree from '../Transforms/ListToTree';

const arr = [
   {
      "id":"Bci6XhCLZKPXZMUztm1R",
      "name":"Sith"
   },
   {
      "id":"C3D71CMmASiR6FfDPlEy",
      "name":"Luke",
      "parentCategoryId":"ltatOlEkHdVPf49ACCMc"
   },
   {
      "id":"aS8Ag1BQqxkO6iWBFnsf",
      "name":"Obi Wan",
      "parentCategoryId":"ltatOlEkHdVPf49ACCMc"
   },
   {
      "id":"ltatOlEkHdVPf49ACCMc",
      "name":"Jedi"
   },
   {
      "id":"pw3CNdNhnbuxhPar6nOP",
      "name":"Palpatine",
      "parentCategoryId":"Bci6XhCLZKPXZMUztm1R"
   }
];
const response = ListToTree(arr, 'parentCategoryId');

输出:

[
   {
      "id":"Bci6XhCLZKPXZMUztm1R",
      "name":"Sith",
      "children":[
         {
            "id":"pw3CNdNhnbuxhPar6nOP",
            "name":"Palpatine",
            "parentCategoryId":"Bci6XhCLZKPXZMUztm1R"
         }
      ]
   },
   {
      "id":"ltatOlEkHdVPf49ACCMc",
      "name":"Jedi",
      "children":[
         {
            "id":"C3D71CMmASiR6FfDPlEy",
            "name":"Luke",
            "parentCategoryId":"ltatOlEkHdVPf49ACCMc"
         },
         {
            "id":"aS8Ag1BQqxkO6iWBFnsf",
            "name":"Obi Wan",
            "parentCategoryId":"ltatOlEkHdVPf49ACCMc"
         }
      ]
   }
]```
