jQuery show.bs.collapse event for nested Bootstrap

Question

I'm using Bootstrap to make collapsible nested divs/buttons. I want to collapse all siblings of a div when it is expanded and to collapse all children of a div when it is collapsed (so that the expanded divs are from only one path from one of the root divs to an inner div).

I choose to do it with jQuery and not using Bootstrap's Accordion - just buttons with associated divs.

So I tried to select all divs that could expand and use the show.bs.collapse event, so that I would know which div was expanded.

$(function () {
  $(".collapse").on('show.bs.collapse', function () {
    console.log ($(this).context.id);
  })
});

If my tree is like so:

• 1 - expanded

  • 2 - expanded

    • 3 - collapsed

  • 4 - collapsed

• 5 - collapsed

• 6 - collapsed

and I expand 3, I don't get:

3

but:

3
2
1

Why is show.bs.collapse applied to divs 1 and 2?

Answer 1

Try using shown.bs.collapse instead. http://www.tutorialspoint.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_collapse_plugin.htm
section The following table lists a few events that can be used with the collapse functionality.

Answer 2

Try

$(function() {
  $(".collapse").on('show.bs.collapse', function(e) {
    if ($(this).is(e.target)) {
      snippet.log(this.id)
    }
  })
});
