A simple, robust and fast interface to read values from ROOT colmnar datasets such as TTree, TChain or TNtuple.

TTreeReader is associated to TTreeReaderValue and TTreeReaderArray which are handles to concretely access the information in the dataset.

Example code can be found in

tutorials/tree/hsimpleReader.C
tutorials/trees/h1analysisTreeReader.C
This example

You can generate a skeleton of TTreeReaderValue<T> and TTreeReaderArray<T> declarations for all of a tree's branches using TTree::MakeSelector().

Roottest contains an example showing the full power.

A simpler analysis example can be found below: it histograms a function of the px and py branches.

// A simple TTreeReader use: read data from hsimple.root (written by hsimple.C)
 
#include "TFile.h
#include "TH1F.h
#include "TTreeReader.h
#include "TTreeReaderValue.h
 
void hsimpleReader() {
   // Create a histogram for the values we read.
   TH1F("h1", "ntuple", 100, -4, 4);
 
   // Open the file containing the tree.
   TFile *myFile = TFile::Open("$ROOTSYS/tutorials/hsimple.root");
 
   // Create a TTreeReader for the tree, for instance by passing the
   // TTree's name and the TDirectory / TFile it is in.
   TTreeReader myReader("ntuple", myFile);
 
   // The branch "px" contains floats; access them as myPx.
   TTreeReaderValue<Float_t> myPx(myReader, "px");
   // The branch "py" contains floats, too; access those as myPy.
   TTreeReaderValue<Float_t> myPy(myReader, "py");
 
   // Loop over all entries of the TTree or TChain.
   while (myReader.Next()) {
      // Just access the data as if myPx and myPy were iterators (note the '*'
      // in front of them):
      myHist->Fill(*myPx + *myPy);
   }
 
   myHist->Draw();
}

A more complete example including error handling and a few combinations of TTreeReaderValue and TTreeReaderArray would look like this:

#include <TFile.h>
#include <TH1.h>
#include <TTreeReader.h>
#include <TTreeReaderValue.h>
#include <TTreeReaderArray.h>
 
#include "TriggerInfo.h"
#include "Muon.h"
#include "Tau.h"
 
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
 
bool CheckValue(ROOT::Internal::TTreeReaderValueBase& value) {
   if (value->GetSetupStatus() < 0) {
      std::cerr << "Error " << value->GetSetupStatus()
                << "setting up reader for " << value->GetBranchName() << '\n';
      return false;
   }
   return true;
}
 
 
// Analyze the tree "MyTree" in the file passed into the function.
// Returns false in case of errors.
bool analyze(TFile* file) {
   // Create a TTreeReader named "MyTree" from the given TDirectory.
   // The TTreeReader gives access to the TTree to the TTreeReaderValue and
   // TTreeReaderArray objects. It knows the current entry number and knows
   // how to iterate through the TTree.
   TTreeReader reader("MyTree", file);
 
   // Read a single float value in each tree entries:
   TTreeReaderValue<float> weight(reader, "event.weight");
 
   // Read a TriggerInfo object from the tree entries:
   TTreeReaderValue<TriggerInfo> triggerInfo(reader, "triggerInfo");
 
   //Read a vector of Muon objects from the tree entries:
   TTreeReaderValue<std::vector<Muon>> muons(reader, "muons");
 
   //Read the pT for all jets in the tree entry:
   TTreeReaderArray<double> jetPt(reader, "jets.pT");
 
   // Read the taus in the tree entry:
   TTreeReaderArray<Tau> taus(reader, "taus");
 
 
   // Now iterate through the TTree entries and fill a histogram.
 
   TH1F("hist", "TTreeReader example histogram", 10, 0., 100.);
 
   while (reader.Next()) {
      if (!CheckValue(weight)) return false;
      if (!CheckValue(triggerInfo)) return false;
      if (!CheckValue(muons)) return false;
      if (!CheckValue(jetPt)) return false;
      if (!CheckValue(taus)) return false;
 
      // Access the TriggerInfo object as if it's a pointer.
      if (!triggerInfo->hasMuonL1())
         continue;
 
      // Ditto for the vector<Muon>.
      if (!muons->size())
         continue;
 
      // Access the jetPt as an array, whether the TTree stores this as
      // a std::vector, std::list, TClonesArray or Jet* C-style array, with
      // fixed or variable array size.
      if (jetPt.GetSize() < 2 || jetPt[0] < 100)
         continue;
 
      // Access the array of taus.
      if (!taus.IsEmpty()) {
         // Access a float value - need to dereference as TTreeReaderValue
         // behaves like an iterator
         float currentWeight = *weight;
         for (const Tau& tau: taus) {
            hist->Fill(tau.eta(), currentWeight);
         }

EEntryStatus TTreeReader::SetEntry ( Long64_t entry )

inline

Set the next entry (or index of the TEntryList if that is set).

Parameters

entry If not TEntryList is set, the entry is a global entry (i.e. not the entry number local to the chain's current tree).

Returns: the entry's read status, i.e. whether the entry is available.

Definition at line 191 of file TTreeReader.h.

◆ SetEntryBase()

TTreeReader::EEntryStatus TTreeReader::SetEntryBase	(	Long64_t	entry,
		Bool_t	local
	)

protected

Load an entry into the tree, return the status of the read.

For chains, entry is the global (i.e. not tree-local) entry number, unless local is true, in which case entry specifies the entry number within the current tree. This is needed for instance for TSelector::Process().

Definition at line 437 of file TTreeReader.cxx.

◆ SetLocalEntry()

EEntryStatus TTreeReader::SetLocalEntry ( Long64_t entry )

inline

Set the next local tree entry.

If a TEntryList is set, this function is equivalent to SetEntry().

Parameters

entry Entry number of the TChain's current TTree. This is the entry number passed for instance by TSelector::Process(entry), i.e. within TSelector::Process() always use SetLocalEntry() and not SetEntry()!

Returns: the entry's read status, i.e. whether the entry is available.

Definition at line 201 of file TTreeReader.h.

◆ SetProxies()

Bool_t TTreeReader::SetProxies ( )

protected

Tell readers we now have a tree.

fValues gets insertions during this loop (when parameterized arrays are read), invalidating iterators. Use old-school counting instead.

Definition at line 314 of file TTreeReader.cxx.

◆ SetTree() [1/3]

void TTreeReader::SetTree	(	const char *	keyname,
		TDirectory *	dir,
		TEntryList *	entryList = `nullptr`
	)

Set (or update) the which tree to read from, passing the name of a tree in a directory.

Parameters

keyname	- name of the tree in `dir`
dir	- the `TDirectory` to load `keyname` from (or gDirectory if `nullptr`)
entryList	- the `TEntryList` to attach to the `TTreeReader`.

Definition at line 579 of file TTreeReader.cxx.

◆ SetTree() [2/3]

void TTreeReader::SetTree	(	const char *	keyname,
		TEntryList *	entryList = `nullptr`
	)

inline

Definition at line 164 of file TTreeReader.h.

◆ SetTree() [3/3]

void TTreeReader::SetTree	(	TTree *	tree,
		TEntryList *	entryList = `nullptr`
	)

Set (or update) the which tree to read from.

tree can be a TTree or a TChain.
