What is Modified Preorder Tree Traversal?
=========================================
MPTT is a technique for storing hierarchical data in a database. The aim is to
make retrieval operations very efficient.
The trade-off for this efficiency is that performing inserts and moving
items around the tree is more involved, as there's some extra work
required to keep the tree structure in a good state at all times.
Here are a few articles about MPTT to whet your appetite and provide
details about how the technique itself works:
* `Trees in SQL`_
* `Storing Hierarchical Data in a Database`_
* `Managing Hierarchical Data in MySQL`_
.. _`Trees in SQL`: http://www.ibase.ru/devinfo/DBMSTrees/sqltrees.html
.. _`Storing Hierarchical Data in a Database`: http://www.sitepoint.com/print/hierarchical-data-database
What is ``django-mptt``?
========================
``django-mptt`` is a reusable Django app which aims to make it easy for you
to use MPTT with your own Django models.
It takes care of the details of managing a database table as a tree
structure and provides tools for working with trees of model instances.
Requirements
------------
* Python 2.7 or 3.2+
* A supported version of Django (currently 1.8+)
Feature overview
----------------
* Simple registration of models - fields required for tree structure will be
added automatically.
* The tree structure is automatically updated when you create or delete
model instances, or change an instance's parent.
* Each level of the tree is automatically sorted by a field (or fields) of your
choice.
* New model methods are added to each registered model for:
* changing position in the tree
* retrieving ancestors, siblings, descendants
* counting descendants
* other tree-related operations
* A ``TreeManager`` manager is added to all registered models. This provides
methods to:
* move nodes around a tree, or into a different tree
* insert a node anywhere in a tree
* rebuild the MPTT fields for the tree (useful when you do bulk updates
outside of django)
* Form fields for tree models.
* Utility functions for tree models.
* Template tags and filters for rendering trees.
* Admin classes for visualizing and modifying trees in Django's administration
interface.
