### Getting Started Install with NPM: ```bash npm install sortablejs --save ``` Install with Bower: ```bash bower install --save sortablejs ``` Import into your project: ```js // Default SortableJS import Sortable from 'sortablejs'; // Core SortableJS (without default plugins) import Sortable from 'sortablejs/modular/sortable.core.esm.js'; // Complete SortableJS (with all plugins) import Sortable from 'sortablejs/modular/sortable.complete.esm.js'; ``` Cherrypick plugins: ```js // Cherrypick extra plugins import Sortable, { MultiDrag, Swap } from 'sortablejs'; Sortable.mount(new MultiDrag(), new Swap()); // Cherrypick default plugins import Sortable, { AutoScroll } from 'sortablejs/modular/sortable.core.esm.js'; Sortable.mount(new AutoScroll()); ``` --- ### Usage ```html

item 1
item 2
item 3

``` ```js var el = document.getElementById('items'); var sortable = Sortable.create(el); ``` You can use any element for the list and its elements, not just `ul`/`li`. Here is an [example with `div`s](https://jsbin.com/visimub/edit?html,js,output). --- ### Options ```js var sortable = new Sortable(el, { group: "name", // or { name: "...", pull: [true, false, 'clone', array], put: [true, false, array] } sort: true, // sorting inside list delay: 0, // time in milliseconds to define when the sorting should start delayOnTouchOnly: false, // only delay if user is using touch touchStartThreshold: 0, // px, how many pixels the point should move before cancelling a delayed drag event disabled: false, // Disables the sortable if set to true. store: null, // @see Store animation: 150, // ms, animation speed moving items when sorting, `0` — without animation easing: "cubic-bezier(1, 0, 0, 1)", // Easing for animation. Defaults to null. See https://easings.net/ for examples. handle: ".my-handle", // Drag handle selector within list items filter: ".ignore-elements", // Selectors that do not lead to dragging (String or Function) preventOnFilter: true, // Call `event.preventDefault()` when triggered `filter` draggable: ".item", // Specifies which items inside the element should be draggable dataIdAttr: 'data-id', // HTML attribute that is used by the `toArray()` method ghostClass: "sortable-ghost", // Class name for the drop placeholder chosenClass: "sortable-chosen", // Class name for the chosen item dragClass: "sortable-drag", // Class name for the dragging item swapThreshold: 1, // Threshold of the swap zone invertSwap: false, // Will always use inverted swap zone if set to true invertedSwapThreshold: 1, // Threshold of the inverted swap zone (will be set to swapThreshold value by default) direction: 'horizontal', // Direction of Sortable (will be detected automatically if not given) forceFallback: false, // ignore the HTML5 DnD behaviour and force the fallback to kick in fallbackClass: "sortable-fallback", // Class name for the cloned DOM Element when using forceFallback fallbackOnBody: false, // Appends the cloned DOM Element into the Document's Body fallbackTolerance: 0, // Specify in pixels how far the mouse should move before it's considered as a drag. dragoverBubble: false, removeCloneOnHide: true, // Remove the clone element when it is not showing, rather than just hiding it emptyInsertThreshold: 5, // px, distance mouse must be from empty sortable to insert drag element into it setData: function (/** DataTransfer */dataTransfer, /** HTMLElement*/dragEl) { dataTransfer.setData('Text', dragEl.textContent); // `dataTransfer` object of HTML5 DragEvent }, // Element is chosen onChoose: function (/**Event*/evt) { evt.oldIndex; // element index within parent }, // Element is unchosen onUnchoose: function(/**Event*/evt) { // same properties as onEnd }, // Element dragging started onStart: function (/**Event*/evt) { evt.oldIndex; // element index within parent }, // Element dragging ended onEnd: function (/**Event*/evt) { var itemEl = evt.item; // dragged HTMLElement evt.to; // target list evt.from; // previous list evt.oldIndex; // element's old index within old parent evt.newIndex; // element's new index within new parent evt.oldDraggableIndex; // element's old index within old parent, only counting draggable elements evt.newDraggableIndex; // element's new index within new parent, only counting draggable elements evt.clone // the clone element evt.pullMode; // when item is in another sortable: `"clone"` if cloning, `true` if moving }, // Element is dropped into the list from another list onAdd: function (/**Event*/evt) { // same properties as onEnd }, // Changed sorting within list onUpdate: function (/**Event*/evt) { // same properties as onEnd }, // Called by any change to the list (add / update / remove) onSort: function (/**Event*/evt) { // same properties as onEnd }, // Element is removed from the list into another list onRemove: function (/**Event*/evt) { // same properties as onEnd }, // Attempt to drag a filtered element onFilter: function (/**Event*/evt) { var itemEl = evt.item; // HTMLElement receiving the `mousedown|tapstart` event. }, // Event when you move an item in the list or between lists onMove: function (/**Event*/evt, /**Event*/originalEvent) { // Example: https://jsbin.com/nawahef/edit?js,output evt.dragged; // dragged HTMLElement evt.draggedRect; // DOMRect {left, top, right, bottom} evt.related; // HTMLElement on which have guided evt.relatedRect; // DOMRect evt.willInsertAfter; // Boolean that is true if Sortable will insert drag element after target by default originalEvent.clientY; // mouse position // return false; — for cancel // return -1; — insert before target // return 1; — insert after target // return true; — keep default insertion point based on the direction // return void; — keep default insertion point based on the direction }, // Called when creating a clone of element onClone: function (/**Event*/evt) { var origEl = evt.item; var cloneEl = evt.clone; }, // Called when dragging element changes position onChange: function(/**Event*/evt) { evt.newIndex // most likely why this event is used is to get the dragging element's current index // same properties as onEnd } }); ``` --- #### `group` option To drag elements from one list into another, both lists must have the same `group` value. You can also define whether lists can give away, give and keep a copy (`clone`), and receive elements. * name: `String` — group name * pull: `true|false|["foo", "bar"]|'clone'|function` — ability to move from the list. `clone` — copy the item, rather than move. Or an array of group names which the elements may be put in. Defaults to `true`. * put: `true|false|["baz", "qux"]|function` — whether elements can be added from other lists, or an array of group names from which elements can be added. * revertClone: `boolean` — revert cloned element to initial position after moving to a another list. Demo: - https://jsbin.com/hijetos/edit?js,output - https://jsbin.com/nacoyah/edit?js,output — use of complex logic in the `pull` and` put` - https://jsbin.com/bifuyab/edit?js,output — use `revertClone: true` --- #### `sort` option Allow sorting inside list. Demo: https://jsbin.com/jayedig/edit?js,output --- #### `delay` option Time in milliseconds to define when the sorting should start. Unfortunately, due to browser restrictions, delaying is not possible on IE or Edge with native drag & drop. Demo: https://jsbin.com/zosiwah/edit?js,output --- #### `delayOnTouchOnly` option Whether or not the delay should be applied only if the user is using touch (eg. on a mobile device). No delay will be applied in any other case. Defaults to `false`. --- #### `swapThreshold` option Percentage of the target that the swap zone will take up, as a float between `0` and `1`. [Read more](https://github.com/SortableJS/Sortable/wiki/Swap-Thresholds-and-Direction#swap-threshold) Demo: http://sortablejs.github.io/Sortable#thresholds --- #### `invertSwap` option Set to `true` to set the swap zone to the sides of the target, for the effect of sorting "in between" items. [Read more](https://github.com/SortableJS/Sortable/wiki/Swap-Thresholds-and-Direction#forcing-inverted-swap-zone) Demo: http://sortablejs.github.io/Sortable#thresholds --- #### `invertedSwapThreshold` option Percentage of the target that the inverted swap zone will take up, as a float between `0` and `1`. If not given, will default to `swapThreshold`. [Read more](https://github.com/SortableJS/Sortable/wiki/Swap-Thresholds-and-Direction#dealing-with-swap-glitching) --- #### `direction` option Direction that the Sortable should sort in. Can be set to `'vertical'`, `'horizontal'`, or a function, which will be called whenever a target is dragged over. Must return `'vertical'` or `'horizontal'`. [Read more](https://github.com/SortableJS/Sortable/wiki/Swap-Thresholds-and-Direction#direction) Example of direction detection for vertical list that includes full column and half column elements: ```js Sortable.create(el, { direction: function(evt, target, dragEl) { if (target !== null && target.className.includes('half-column') && dragEl.className.includes('half-column')) { return 'horizontal'; } return 'vertical'; } }); ``` --- #### `touchStartThreshold` option This option is similar to `fallbackTolerance` option. When the `delay` option is set, some phones with very sensitive touch displays like the Samsung Galaxy S8 will fire unwanted touchmove events even when your finger is not moving, resulting in the sort not triggering. This option sets the minimum pointer movement that must occur before the delayed sorting is cancelled. Values between 3 to 5 are good. --- #### `disabled` options Disables the sortable if set to `true`. Demo: https://jsbin.com/sewokud/edit?js,output ```js var sortable = Sortable.create(list); document.getElementById("switcher").onclick = function () { var state = sortable.option("disabled"); // get sortable.option("disabled", !state); // set }; ``` --- #### `handle` option To make list items draggable, Sortable disables text selection by the user. That's not always desirable. To allow text selection, define a drag handler, which is an area of every list element that allows it to be dragged around. Demo: https://jsbin.com/numakuh/edit?html,js,output ```js Sortable.create(el, { handle: ".my-handle" }); ``` ```html

:: list item text one
:: list item text two

``` ```css .my-handle { cursor: move; cursor: -webkit-grabbing; } ``` --- #### `filter` option ```js Sortable.create(list, { filter: ".js-remove, .js-edit", onFilter: function (evt) { var item = evt.item, ctrl = evt.target; if (Sortable.utils.is(ctrl, ".js-remove")) { // Click on remove button item.parentNode.removeChild(item); // remove sortable item } else if (Sortable.utils.is(ctrl, ".js-edit")) { // Click on edit link // ... } } }) ``` --- #### `ghostClass` option Class name for the drop placeholder (default `sortable-ghost`). Demo: https://jsbin.com/henuyiw/edit?css,js,output ```css .ghost { opacity: 0.4; } ``` ```js Sortable.create(list, { ghostClass: "ghost" }); ``` --- #### `chosenClass` option Class name for the chosen item (default `sortable-chosen`). Demo: https://jsbin.com/hoqufox/edit?css,js,output ```css .chosen { color: #fff; background-color: #c00; } ``` ```js Sortable.create(list, { delay: 500, chosenClass: "chosen" }); ``` --- #### `forceFallback` option If set to `true`, the Fallback for non HTML5 Browser will be used, even if we are using an HTML5 Browser. This gives us the possibility to test the behaviour for older Browsers even in newer Browser, or make the Drag 'n Drop feel more consistent between Desktop , Mobile and old Browsers. On top of that, the Fallback always generates a copy of that DOM Element and appends the class `fallbackClass` defined in the options. This behaviour controls the look of this 'dragged' Element. Demo: https://jsbin.com/sibiput/edit?html,css,js,output --- #### `fallbackTolerance` option Emulates the native drag threshold. Specify in pixels how far the mouse should move before it's considered as a drag. Useful if the items are also clickable like in a list of links. When the user clicks inside a sortable element, it's not uncommon for your hand to move a little between the time you press and the time you release. Dragging only starts if you move the pointer past a certain tolerance, so that you don't accidentally start dragging every time you click. 3 to 5 are probably good values. --- #### `dragoverBubble` option If set to `true`, the dragover event will bubble to parent sortables. Works on both fallback and native dragover event. By default, it is false, but Sortable will only stop bubbling the event once the element has been inserted into a parent Sortable, or *can* be inserted into a parent Sortable, but isn't at that specific time (due to animation, etc). Since 1.8.0, you will probably want to leave this option as false. Before 1.8.0, it may need to be `true` for nested sortables to work. --- #### `removeCloneOnHide` option If set to `false`, the clone is hidden by having it's CSS `display` property set to `none`. By default, this option is `true`, meaning Sortable will remove the cloned element from the DOM when it is supposed to be hidden. --- #### `emptyInsertThreshold` option The distance (in pixels) the mouse must be from an empty sortable while dragging for the drag element to be inserted into that sortable. Defaults to `5`. Set to `0` to disable this feature. Demo: https://jsbin.com/becavoj/edit?js,output An alternative to this option would be to set a padding on your list when it is empty. For example: ```css ul:empty { padding-bottom: 20px; } ``` Warning: For `:empty` to work, it must have no node inside (even text one). Demo: https://jsbin.com/yunakeg/edit?html,css,js,output --- ### Event object ([demo](https://jsbin.com/fogujiv/edit?js,output)) - to:`HTMLElement` — list, in which moved element - from:`HTMLElement` — previous list - item:`HTMLElement` — dragged element - clone:`HTMLElement` - oldIndex:`Number|undefined` — old index within parent - newIndex:`Number|undefined` — new index within parent - oldDraggableIndex: `Number|undefined` — old index within parent, only counting draggable elements - newDraggableIndex: `Number|undefined` — new index within parent, only counting draggable elements - pullMode:`String|Boolean|undefined` — Pull mode if dragging into another sortable (`"clone"`, `true`, or `false`), otherwise undefined #### `move` event object - to:`HTMLElement` - from:`HTMLElement` - dragged:`HTMLElement` - draggedRect:`DOMRect` - related:`HTMLElement` — element on which have guided - relatedRect:`DOMRect` - willInsertAfter:`Boolean` — `true` if will element be inserted after target (or `false` if before) --- ### Methods ##### option(name:`String`[, value:`*`]):`*` Get or set the option. ##### closest(el:`HTMLElement`[, selector:`String`]):`HTMLElement|null` For each element in the set, get the first element that matches the selector by testing the element itself and traversing up through its ancestors in the DOM tree. ##### toArray():`String[]` Serializes the sortable's item `data-id`'s (`dataIdAttr` option) into an array of string. ##### sort(order:`String[]`, useAnimation:`Boolean`) Sorts the elements according to the array. ```js var order = sortable.toArray(); sortable.sort(order.reverse(), true); // apply ``` ##### save() Save the current sorting (see [store](#store)) ##### destroy() Removes the sortable functionality completely. --- ### Store Saving and restoring of the sort. ```html

order
save
restore

``` ```js Sortable.create(el, { group: "localStorage-example", store: { /** * Get the order of elements. Called once during initialization. * @param {Sortable} sortable * @returns {Array} */ get: function (sortable) { var order = localStorage.getItem(sortable.options.group.name); return order ? order.split('|') : []; }, /** * Save the order of elements. Called onEnd (when the item is dropped). * @param {Sortable} sortable */ set: function (sortable) { var order = sortable.toArray(); localStorage.setItem(sortable.options.group.name, order.join('|')); } } }) ``` --- ### Bootstrap Demo: https://jsbin.com/visimub/edit?html,js,output ```html

This is Sortable
It works with Bootstrap...
...out of the box.
It has support for touch devices.
Just drag some elements around.
