draggable

High performance, fully cross browser, full featured drag and drop in a tiny (2k gzipped), dependency-free package.

Demo

http://bcherny.github.io/draggable/demos/basic/

Usage

HTML

<div id="id"></div>

JavaScript

Using browser globals:

var element = document.getElementById('id');
var options = {
  grid: 10,
  onDrag: function(){ ... }
};
new Draggable (element, options);

Using AMD/CommonJS:

var Draggable = require ('Draggable');
var element = document.getElementById('id');
new Draggable (element);

Dependencies

None!

Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
grid	Number	0	grid size for snapping on drag
handle	Element	null	the handle of the draggable; if null, the whole element is the handle
filterTarget	Function(target)	null	prevent drag when target passes this test
limit	Element, Function(x, y, x0, y0), or Object	{ x: null, y: null }	limit x/y drag bounds
threshold	Number	0	threshold before drag begins (in px)
setCursor	Boolean (truthy)	false	change cursor to move?
setPosition	Boolean (truthy)	true	change draggable position to absolute?
smoothDrag	Boolean (truthy)	true	snap to grid only when dropped, not during drag
useGPU	Boolean (truthy)	true	move graphics calculation/composition to the GPU? (modern browsers only, graceful degradation)

Events

Event	Arguments
onDrag	element, x, y, event
onDragStart	element, x, y, event
onDragEnd	element, x, y, event

Instance methods

Method	Arguments	Returns	Description
get	---	{Object} {x, y}	Get the current coordinates
set	{Number} x, {Number} y	instance	Move to the specified coordinates
setOption	{String} property, {Mixed} value	instance	Set an option in the live instance
destroy	---	---	Unbind the instance's DOM event listeners

Notes

Options.limit accepts arguments in several forms:

// no limit
limit: null

// limit x, but leave y unbounded
limit: {
  x: [1,10],
  y: null
}

// limit both axes
limit: {
  x: [1,10],
  y: [1,500]
}

// bound x, set y to a constant
limit: {
  x: [1,10],
  y: 5
}

// bound with an element
limit: document.getElementById('id')

// bound with a custom function
limit: function (
  x,  // current X coordinate
  y,  // current Y coordinate
  x0, // original X coordinate (where drag was started)
  y0  // original Y coordinate (where drag was started)
) {

  var radius = 100,
    dx = x - x0,
    dy = y - y0,
    distance = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy),

    // only allow dragging within a circle of radius 100
    outOfRange = distance > radius;


  // if our point is outside of the circle, compute the
  // point on the circle's edge closest to our point
  if (outOfRange) {

    x = x0 + radius * (x - x0) / distance;
    y = y0 + radius * (y - y0) / distance;

  }

  return {
    x: x,
    y: y
  };

}
