Nestable

PLEASE NOTE

This repo is a fork of Nestable by dbushell, who unfortunately cannot provide anymore support. The vast majority of pull requests from the original repository have been integrated here and tested in production.

I will continue the development of this fork according to my own needs or if I find bugs.

This being said, @RamonSmit has apparently taken the lead on an active dev branch of Nestable here.

Drag & drop hierarchical list with mouse and touch compatibility (jQuery / Zepto plugin)

Try Nestable Demo

Usage

Write your nested HTML lists like so:

    <div class="dd">
        <ol class="dd-list">
            <li class="dd-item" data-id="1">
                <div class="dd-handle">Item 1</div>
            </li>
            <li class="dd-item" data-id="2">
                <div class="dd-handle">Item 2</div>
            </li>
            <li class="dd-item" data-id="3">
                <div class="dd-handle">Item 3</div>
                <ol class="dd-list">
                    <li class="dd-item" data-id="4">
                        <div class="dd-handle">Item 4</div>
                    </li>
                    <li class="dd-item" data-id="5">
                        <div class="dd-handle">Item 5</div>
                    </li>
                </ol>
            </li>
        </ol>
    </div>

Then activate with jQuery like so:

$('.dd').nestable({ /* config options */ });

Events

The callback provided as an option is fired when elements are reordered or nested.

    $('.dd').nestable({ 
      callback: function(l,e){
            // l is the main container
            // e is the element that was moved
        }
    });

Methods

You can get a serialised object with all data-* attributes for each item.

    $('.dd').nestable('serialize');

The serialised JSON for the example above would be:

    [{"id":1},{"id":2},{"id":3,"children":[{"id":4},{"id":5}]}]

Configuration

You can change the follow options:

• maxDepth number of levels an item can be nested (default 5)
• group group ID to allow dragging between lists (default 0)
• callback callback function when an element has been changed (default null)

These advanced config options are also available:

• listNodeName The HTML element to create for lists (default 'ol')
• itemNodeName The HTML element to create for list items (default 'li')
• rootClass The class of the root element .nestable() was used on (default 'dd')
• listClass The class of all list elements (default 'dd-list')
• itemClass The class of all list item elements (default 'dd-item')
• dragClass The class applied to the list element that is being dragged (default 'dd-dragel')
• noDragClass The class applied to an element to prevent dragging (default 'dd-nodrag')
• handleClass The class of the content element inside each list item (default 'dd-handle')
• collapsedClass The class applied to lists that have been collapsed (default 'dd-collapsed')
• noChildrenClass The class applied to items that cannot have children (default 'dd-nochildren')
• placeClass The class of the placeholder element (default 'dd-placeholder')
• emptyClass The class used for empty list placeholder elements (default 'dd-empty')
• expandBtnHTML The HTML text used to generate a list item expand button (default '<button data-action="expand">Expand</button>')
• collapseBtnHTML The HTML text used to generate a list item collapse button (default '<button data-action="collapse">Collapse</button>')

Inspect the Nestable Demo for guidance.
