Installation
Install the package
$ yarn add @stimulus-components/sortable sortablejs @rails/request.js
Register the controller in your application
app/javascript/controllers/index.jsimport { Application } from '@hotwired/stimulus' import Sortable from '@stimulus-components/sortable' const application = Application.start() application.register('sortable', Sortable)
This component is based on the SortableJS.
Example
Sortable
- Pet the cat
- Get the groceries
With custom handler
- Pet the cat
- Get the groceries
Usage
class Todo < ApplicationRecord
acts_as_list # Or with a custom position system.
end
class TodosController < ApplicationController
def update
# Do what you want with todo_params.
end
private
def todo_params
params.require(:todo).permit(:position)
end
end
In your views:
Basic usage
<ul data-controller="sortable" data-sortable-animation-value="150">
<li>Pet the cat</li>
<li>Get the groceries</li>
</ul>
With custom handler
<ul data-controller="sortable" data-sortable-handle-value=".handle">
<li>
<svg class="handle"></svg>
Pet the cat
</li>
<li>
<svg class="handle"></svg>
Get the groceries
</li>
</ul>
With AJAX call
If you're using @rails/request.js in your application, you can add an url as data-attribute on every items to perform an AJAX call to update the new position automatically on drop.
<ul data-controller="sortable" data-sortable-resource-name-value="todo">
<%= @todos.each do |todo| %>
<!-- <li data-sortable-update-url="/todos/1">Pet the cat</li> -->
<li data-sortable-update-url="<%= todo_path(todo) %>"><%= todo.description %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
By default, position
will be used as param in a PATCH request. You can change it with the data-sortable-param-name-value
attribute.
If you use data-sortable-resource-name-value
, the name will be used. For instance, todo[position]
.
Configuration
Attribute | Default | Description | Optional |
---|---|---|---|
data-sortable-resource-name-value | undefined | Name of the resource to use as AJAX param. | ✅ |
data-sortable-param-name-value | position | Name of the attribute to use as AJAX param. | ✅ |
data-sortable-response-kind-value | html | The response kind you want for @rails/request.js . | ✅ |
data-sortable-animation-value | 150 | Animation speed moving items when sorting in milliseconds. 0 to disable. | ✅ |
data-sortable-handle-value | undefined | Drag handle selector within list items. | ✅ |
Extending Controller
You can use inheritance to extend the functionality of any Stimulus component:
import Sortable from "stimulus-sortable"
export default class extends Sortable {
connect() {
super.connect()
console.log("Do what you want here.")
// The sortable.js instance.
this.sortable
// Your options
this.options
// Your default options
this.defaultOptions
}
// You can override the `onUpdate` method here.
onUpdate(event) {
super.onUpdate(event)
}
// You can set default options in this getter for all sortable elements.
get defaultOptions() {
return {
animation: 500,
}
}
}
This controller will automatically have access to targets defined in the parent class.
If you override the connect
, disconnect
or any other methods from the parent, you'll want to call super.method()
to make sure the parent functionality is executed.
