- treescope.using_expansion_strategy(max_height: int | None = 20, target_width: int = 60, relax_for_only_child: bool = True, recursive_expand_height: int = 7) AbstractContextManager[None] [source]#
Context manager that modifies the expansion strategy of Treescope.
This is a convenience function for modifying the layout algorithm used by Treescope to determine how many nodes to expand by default. It returns a context manager within which the given balanced expansion strategy will be used.
- Parameters:
max_height – Maximum number of lines for the rendering, which we should try not to exceed when expanding nodes. Can sometimes be exceeded for “only child” subtrees if
relax_for_only_child
is set. If None, then an arbitrary height is allowed, and onlytarget_width
will be used to determine expansion size.target_width – Target number of characters for the rendering. If a node is shorter than this width when collapsed, we will leave it on a single line instead of expanding it.
relax_for_only_child – If True, we allow the height constraint to be violated once if there is only a single node that could possibly be expanded. In particular, we repeatedly expand nodes until we reach a node shorter than
target_width
or a node with two or more children. If we match or exceed the height constraint while doing this, we stop after expanding that node (but leave it expanded). If we haven’t reached the constraint, we continue expanding under the stricter rules.recursive_expand_height – Whenever we mark a node as collapsed, we first recursively expand its children as if it was expanded with this as the max height, then collapse only the outermost node. This means it will render as a single line, but if expanded by the user, it will expand not just the clicked node but also some of its children. This is intended to support faster interactive exploration of large objects.
- Returns:
Context manager in which the given strategy will be active.
