Installation

$ npm install --save react-anything-sortable

// UMD build is provided as well, but please do consider use modern module bundlers like webpack or browserify.

You have to add necessary styles for sortable working properly, if you're using bundle tools like webpack, just

import 'react-anything-sortable/sortable.css';

Or copy this css to your own style base.

How to use

You can check the straight-forward demo by examining demo folder, or here's a brief example.

In app.js

var ReactDOM = require('react-dom');
var Sortable = require('react-anything-sortable');
var SortableItem = require('./SortableItem');

ReactDOM.render(
<Sortable onSort={handleSort}>
  <SortableItem sortData="1" />
  <SortableItem sortData="2" />
</Sortable>
, document.body);

and in SortableItem.js

A modern usage would be

import React from 'react';
import { sortable } from 'react-anything-sortable';

@sortable
class SortableItem extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div {...this.props}>      // <-- make sure destructure props to your own item,
        your item                //     it contains required `className`s and
      </div>                     //     event handlers
    );
  }
};

Or if you favor the old fashion way

var React = require('react');
var SortableItemMixin = require('react-anything-sortable').SortableItemMixin;

var SortableItem = React.createClass({
  mixins: [SortableItemMixin],

  render: function(){
    return this.renderWithSortable(  // <-- this.renderWithSortable call is essential
      <div>your item</div>
    );
  }
});

demo

sortData

Add this props to SortableItem rather than Sortable !

Type: Any Default: undefined

Will be returned by onSort callback in the form of array.

Notice

1. Specify your style for Sortable and Sortable Items, check sortable.css, it is NOT optional!
2. Don't forget the this.renderWithSortable call in SortableItem, or spread props to your component if using decorators.
3. Since we can't track any children modification in Sortable, you have to use key to force update Sortable when adding/removing children. Checkout dynamic demo for more details.
