经过多次尝试，我得出了这个结论:

const arrayToTree = (arr, parent = 0) => arr .filter(item => item.parent === parent).map(child => ({ ...child, children: arrayToTree(arr, child.index) }));

   

const entries = [ { index: 1, parent: 0 }, { index: 2, parent: 1 }, { index: 3, parent: 2 }, { index: 4, parent: 2 }, { index: 5, parent: 4 }, { index: 6, parent: 5 }, { index: 7, parent: 6 }, { index: 8, parent: 7 }, { index: 9, parent: 8 }, { index: 10, parent: 9 }, { index: 11, parent: 7 }, { index: 13, parent: 11 }, { index: 12, parent: 0 } ]; const arrayToTree = (arr, parent = 0) => arr .filter(item => item.parent === parent) .map(child => ({ ...child, children: arrayToTree(arr, child.index) })); console.log(arrayToTree(entries));

以防有家长需要。参考id 2，它有多个父元素

const dataSet = [{ "ID": 1, "Phone": "(403) 125-2552", "City": "Coevorden", "Name": "Grady" }, {"ID": 2, "Phone": "(403) 125-2552", "City": "Coevorden", "Name": "Grady" }, { "ID": 3, "parentID": [1,2], "Phone": "(979) 486-1932", "City": "Chełm", "Name": "Scarlet" }]; const expectedDataTree = [ { "ID":1, "Phone":"(403) 125-2552", "City":"Coevorden", "Name":"Grady", "childNodes":[{ "ID":2, "parentID":[1,3], "Phone":"(979) 486-1932", "City":"Chełm", "Name":"Scarlet", "childNodes":[] }] }, { "ID":3, "parentID":[], "Phone":"(403) 125-2552", "City":"Coevorden", "Name":"Grady", "childNodes":[ { "ID":2, "parentID":[1,3], "Phone":"(979) 486-1932", "City":"Chełm", "Name":"Scarlet", "childNodes":[] } ] } ]; const createDataTree = dataset => { const hashTable = Object.create(null); dataset.forEach(aData => hashTable[aData.ID] = {...aData, childNodes: []}); const dataTree = []; dataset.forEach(Datae => { if (Datae.parentID && Datae.parentID.length > 0) { Datae.parentID.forEach( aData => { hashTable[aData].childNodes.push(hashTable[Datae.ID]) }); } else{ dataTree.push(hashTable[Datae.ID]) } }); return dataTree; }; window.alert(JSON.stringify(createDataTree(dataSet)));

如果使用地图查找，就有一个有效的解决方案。如果父母总是在他们的孩子之前，你可以合并两个for循环。它支持多个根。它在悬垂的分支上给出一个错误，但可以修改为忽略它们。它不需要第三方库。就我所知，这是最快的解决方法。

function list_to_tree(list) { var map = {}, node, roots = [], i; for (i = 0; i < list.length; i += 1) { map[list[i].id] = i; // initialize the map list[i].children = []; // initialize the children } for (i = 0; i < list.length; i += 1) { node = list[i]; if (node.parentId !== "0") { // if you have dangling branches check that map[node.parentId] exists list[map[node.parentId]].children.push(node); } else { roots.push(node); } } return roots; } var entries = [{ "id": "12", "parentId": "0", "text": "Man", "level": "1", "children": null }, { "id": "6", "parentId": "12", "text": "Boy", "level": "2", "children": null }, { "id": "7", "parentId": "12", "text": "Other", "level": "2", "children": null }, { "id": "9", "parentId": "0", "text": "Woman", "level": "1", "children": null }, { "id": "11", "parentId": "9", "text": "Girl", "level": "2", "children": null } ]; console.log(list_to_tree(entries));

如果你喜欢复杂性理论，这个解决方案是Θ(n log(n))。递归过滤器的解决方案是Θ(n^2)，这对于大型数据集可能是一个问题。

(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);
});

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”
