                { name: "camping"}
            ]
        }, {

·
├── done
│   ├── hiking
│   └── camping
└── todos
    ├── scuba diving
    └── surfing

See from the example above, getStringTree() accepts an array of objects as a parameter, it also accepts the second parameter which is optional, you can use as follows:

tree.getStringTree([
    {
        title: "done",
        items: [
            { title: "hiking" }, 
            { title: "camping"}
        ]
    }
], {
    label: "title",
    children: "items"
})

getStringTree(array, option)

the option's default value is {label: "name", children: "children"}
