react-flex-dnd

React drag and drop sort support flex layout and nested.

example

This package using hooks, note that your React version is above 16.8 :)

Why flex? flex covers most demands, like list vertically or horizontally, if your list can wrap, that's the problem what here to solve. Flex wrap is likely a grid layout, but there is difference.

Flex wrap layout, just like using css property flex wrap. flex-wrap

Grid layout, it uses all spaces to place elements. grid

If your demand is grid layout, I suggest [react-grid-layout](https://github.com/react-grid-layout/react-grid-layout).

Play with react-flex-dnd: https://asweallcan.github.io/react-flex-dnd, the example is pretty simple, only show one level nested, but it can be infinite nested if you want.

Useage

DragDropProvider

Must wrap your app with it, it provides controllers for your draggables and droppables.

rootId?: string

If using React 17, it is required to identify app root el.

ghostId?: string

html id property for ghost element.

onDragEnd

onDragEnd: (params: {
  to: { index: number; droppableId: string };
  from: { index: number; droppableId: string };
  draggableId: string;
}) => void;

Here comes key part, onDragEnd can get sort result after interaction, from shows old place for the dragging item, but for attention, the index in the to is the new index with dragging item removed. Normally when drag end, you remove element first then insert dragging item to the new place.
