Usage

<ul id="items">
	<li>item 1</li>
	<li>item 2</li>
	<li>item 3</li>
</ul>
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 divs.


Options

var sortable = new Sortable(el, {
	group: "name",  // or { name: "...", pull: [true, false, clone], put: [true, false, array] }
	sort: true,  // sorting inside list
	delay: 0, // time in milliseconds to define when the sorting should start
	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
	handle: ".my-handle",  // Drag handle selector within list items
	filter: ".ignore-elements",  // Selectors that do not lead to dragging (String or Function)
	draggable: ".item",  // Specifies which items inside the element should be sortable
	ghostClass: "sortable-ghost",  // Class name for the drop placeholder
	chosenClass: "sortable-chosen",  // Class name for the chosen item
	dataIdAttr: 'data-id',
	
	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
	
	scroll: true, // or HTMLElement
	scrollSensitivity: 30, // px, how near the mouse must be to an edge to start scrolling.
	scrollSpeed: 10, // px
	
	setData: function (dataTransfer, dragEl) {
		dataTransfer.setData('Text', dragEl.textContent);
	},

	// dragging started
	onStart: function (/**Event*/evt) {
		evt.oldIndex;  // element index within parent
	},
	
	// dragging ended
	onEnd: function (/**Event*/evt) {
		evt.oldIndex;  // element's old index within parent
		evt.newIndex;  // element's new index within parent
	},

	// Element is dropped into the list from another list
	onAdd: function (/**Event*/evt) {
		var itemEl = evt.item;  // dragged HTMLElement
		evt.from;  // previous list
		// + indexes from onEnd
	},

	// Changed sorting within list
	onUpdate: function (/**Event*/evt) {
		var itemEl = evt.item;  // dragged HTMLElement
		// + indexes from onEnd
	},

	// Called by any change to the list (add / update / remove)
	onSort: function (/**Event*/evt) {
		// same properties as onUpdate
	},

	// Element is removed from the list into another list
	onRemove: function (/**Event*/evt) {
		// same properties as onUpdate
	},

	// 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) {
		// Example: http://jsbin.com/tuyafe/1/edit?js,output
		evt.dragged; // dragged HTMLElement
		evt.draggedRect; // TextRectangle {left, top, right и bottom}
		evt.related; // HTMLElement on which have guided
		evt.relatedRect; // TextRectangle
		// return false; — for cancel
	}
});

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|'clone' — ability to move from the list. clone — copy the item, rather than move.
  • put: true|false|["foo", "bar"] — whether elements can be added from other lists, or an array of group names from which elements can be taken. Demo: http://jsbin.com/naduvo/2/edit?html,js,output

sort option

Sorting inside list.

Demo: http://jsbin.com/xizeh/2/edit?html,js,output


delay option

Time in milliseconds to define when the sorting should start.

Demo: http://jsbin.com/xizeh/4/edit?html,js,output


disabled options

Disables the sortable if set to true.

Demo: http://jsbin.com/xiloqu/1/edit?html,js,output

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: http://jsbin.com/newize/1/edit?html,js,output

Sortable.create(el, {
	handle: ".my-handle"
});
<ul>
	<li><span class="my-handle">::</span> list item text one
	<li><span class="my-handle">::</span> list item text two
</ul>
.my-handle {
	cursor: move;
	cursor: -webkit-grabbing;
}

filter option
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: http://jsbin.com/hunifu/1/edit?css,js,output

.ghost {
  opacity: 0.4;
}
Sortable.create(list, {
  ghostClass: "ghost"
});

chosenClass option

Class name for the chosen item (default sortable-chosen).

Demo: http://jsbin.com/hunifu/edit?html,css,js,output

.chosen {
  color: #fff;
  background-color: #c00;
}
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: http://jsbin.com/pucurizace/edit?html,css,js,output


scroll option

If set to true, the page (or sortable-area) scrolls when coming to an edge.

Demo:


scrollSensitivity option

Defines how near the mouse must be to an edge to start scrolling.


scrollSpeed option

The speed at which the window should scroll once the mouse pointer gets within the scrollSensitivity distance.


Support AngularJS

Include ng-sortable.js

Demo: http://jsbin.com/naduvo/1/edit?html,js,output

<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="demo">
	<ul ng-sortable>
		<li ng-repeat="item in items">{{item}}</li>
	</ul>

	<ul ng-sortable="{ group: 'foobar' }">
		<li ng-repeat="item in foo">{{item}}</li>
	</ul>

	<ul ng-sortable="barConfig">
		<li ng-repeat="item in bar">{{item}}</li>
	</ul>
</div>
angular.module('myApp', ['ng-sortable'])
	.controller('demo', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
		$scope.items = ['item 1', 'item 2'];
		$scope.foo = ['foo 1', '..'];
		$scope.bar = ['bar 1', '..'];
		$scope.barConfig = {
			group: 'foobar',
			animation: 150,
			onSort: function (/** ngSortEvent */evt){
				// @see https://github.com/RubaXa/Sortable/blob/master/ng-sortable.js#L18-L24
			}
		};
	}]);

Support React

Include react-sortable-mixin.js. See more options.

var SortableList = React.createClass({
	mixins: [SortableMixin],

	getInitialState: function() {
		return {
			items: ['Mixin', 'Sortable']
		};
	},

	handleSort: function (/** Event */evt) { /*..*/ },

	render: function() {
		return <ul>{
			this.state.items.map(function (text) {
				return <li>{text}</li>
			})
		}</ul>
	}
});

React.render(<SortableList />, document.body);


//
// Groups
//
var AllUsers = React.createClass({
	mixins: [SortableMixin],

	sortableOptions: {
		ref: "user",
		group: "shared",
		model: "users"
	},

	getInitialState: function() {
		return { users: ['Abbi', 'Adela', 'Bud', 'Cate', 'Davis', 'Eric']; };
	},

	render: function() {
		return (
			<h1>Users</h1>
			<ul ref="user">{
				this.state.users.map(function (text) {
					return <li>{text}</li>
				})
			}</ul>
		);
	}
});

var ApprovedUsers = React.createClass({
	mixins: [SortableMixin],
	sortableOptions: { group: "shared" },

	getInitialState: function() {
		return { items: ['Hal', 'Judy']; };
	},

	render: function() {
		return <ul>{
			this.state.items.map(function (text) {
				return <li>{text}</li>
			})
		}</ul>
	}
});

React.render(<div>
	<AllUsers/>
	<hr/>
	<ApprovedUsers/>
</div>, document.body);

Support React ES2015 / TypeScript syntax

As mixins are not supported in ES2015 / TypeScript syntax here is example of ES2015 ref based implementation. Using refs is the preferred (by facebook) "escape hatch" to underlaying DOM nodes: React: The ref Callback Attribute

import * as React from "react";
import Sortable from 'sortablejs';

export class SortableExampleEsnext extends React.Component {

  sortableContainersDecorator = (componentBackingInstance) => {
    // check if backing instance not null
    if (componentBackingInstance) {
      let options = {
        handle: ".group-title" // Restricts sort start click/touch to the specified element
      };
      Sortable.create(componentBackingInstance, options);
    }
  };

  sortableGroupDecorator = (componentBackingInstance) => {
    // check if backing instance not null
    if (componentBackingInstance) {
      let options = {
        draggable: "div" // Specifies which items inside the element should be sortable
        group: "shared"
      };
      Sortable.create(componentBackingInstance, options);
    }
  };

  render() {
    return (
      <div className="container" ref={this.sortableContainersDecorator}>
        <div className="group">
          <h2 className="group-title">Group 1</h2>
          <div className="group-list" ref={this.sortableGroupDecorator}>
            <div>Swap them around</div>
            <div>Swap us around</div>
            <div>Swap things around</div>
            <div>Swap everything around</div>
          </div>
        </div>
        <div className="group">
          <h2 className="group-title">Group 2</h2>
          <div className="group-list" ref={this.sortableGroupDecorator}>
            <div>Swap them around</div>
            <div>Swap us around</div>
            <div>Swap things around</div>
            <div>Swap everything around</div>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

Support KnockoutJS

Include knockout-sortable.js

<div data-bind="sortable: {foreach: yourObservableArray, options: {/* sortable options here */}}">
	<!-- optional item template here -->
</div>

<div data-bind="draggable: {foreach: yourObservableArray, options: {/* sortable options here */}}">
	<!-- optional item template here -->
</div>

Using this bindingHandler sorts the observableArray when the user sorts the HTMLElements.

The sortable/draggable bindingHandlers supports the same syntax as Knockouts built in template binding except for the data option, meaning that you could supply the name of a template or specify a separate templateEngine. The difference between the sortable and draggable handlers is that the draggable has the sortable group option set to {pull:'clone',put: false} and the sort option set to false by default (overridable).

Other attributes are:

  • options: an object that contains settings for the underlaying sortable, ie group,handle, events etc.
  • collection: if your foreach array is a computed then you would supply the underlaying observableArray that you would like to sort here.

Support Polymer


<link rel="import" href="bower_components/Sortable/Sortable.html">

<sortable-js handle=".handle">
  <template is="dom-repeat" items={{names}}>
    <div>{{item}}</div>
  </template>
</sortable-js>

Method

option(name:String[, value:*]):*

Get or set the option.

closest(el:String[, selector:HTMLElement]):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[])

Sorts the elements according to the array.

var order = sortable.toArray();
sortable.sort(order.reverse()); // apply
save()

Save the current sorting (see store)

destroy()

Removes the sortable functionality completely.


Store

Saving and restoring of the sort.

<ul>
	<li data-id="1">order</li>
	<li data-id="2">save</li>
	<li data-id="3">restore</li>
</ul>
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);
			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, order.join('|'));
		}
	}
})

jQuery compatibility

To assemble plugin for jQuery, perform the following steps:

  cd Sortable
  npm install
  grunt jquery

Now you can use jquery.fn.sortable.js:
(or jquery.fn.sortable.min.js if you run grunt jquery:min)

  $("#list").sortable({ /* options */ }); // init
  
  $("#list").sortable("widget"); // get Sortable instance
  
  $("#list").sortable("destroy"); // destroy Sortable instance
  
  $("#list").sortable("{method-name}"); // call an instance method
  
  $("#list").sortable("{method-name}", "foo", "bar"); // call an instance method with parameters

And grunt jquery:mySortableFuncjquery.fn.mySortableFunc.js
