How to display the menu from the database?
Good morning. Please help. I've been warming my head for several hours, I don't understand how to display the menu.
I have such a script at the moment, it finds all matching sub-items and displays them in arrays. Later I need to display text under these id
parent_id - id of sub -items
id - id of items
title - text of items
connection.query("SELECT * FROM menu", function(err,res){
const menu = res.map(list => list)
for(i=0; i<menu.length; i++) {
connection.query("SELECT * FROM menu WHERE parent_id = '"+menu[i].id+"'", function(err,res){
})
}
})

In order to leave comments, you need to log in
connection.query('SELECT * FROM menu', (err, result) => {
if(err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
const index = result.reduce((acc, row) => ({...acc, [row.id]: row}), {});
const menu = [];
for(const row of result) {
if(row.parent_id === 0) {
menu.push(row);
continue;
}
const parent = index[row.parent_id];
if(!parent) {
console.warn(`Undefined parent with id ${row.parent_id}`);
continue;
}
if(!parent.children) {
parent.children = [];
}
parent.children.push(row);
}
console.log(menu);
});
