SortableGrid properties

- ` style ` Object

Custom styles to override or complement the sortableGrid native style.

* When a row becomes empty of items due to item deletion, the height of the grid is smoothly adjusted to fit the new rows. However, passing `flex:1` inside the style prop will cause the grid to fill up the available space and not adjust height when rows become empty.
* User cannot drag items outside of the grid. Assigning `flex:1` will expand the grid, therefore giving more space for the items to be dragged in.
* When deleting items from the last row on Android, the items can get clipped. You can workaround this by giving the grid `bottomPadding`. (This is a known issue with `overflow`-property on Android)


- ` blockTransitionDuration ` Number

How long should the transition of a passive block take when the active block takes its place (milliseconds)

- ` activeBlockCenteringDuration ` Number

How long should it take for the block that is being dragged to seek its place after it's released (milliseconds)

- ` itemsPerRow ` Number

How many items should be placed on one row

- ` itemWidth ` Number

If set, itemsPerRow will be calculated to fit items of this size

- ` itemHeight ` Number

If set, the height of each item. Defaults to itemWidth

- ` itemHeight ` Number

When used together with itemsPerRow, sets the size of a block to something other than the default square

- ` dragActivationTreshold ` Number

How long must the user hold the press on the block until it becomes active and can be dragged (milliseconds)

- ` doubleTapTreshold ` Number

How long will the execution wait for the second tap before deciding it was a single tap (milliseconds).
Will be omitted if no onDoubleTap-property is given to the item being tapped - In which case single-tap callback will be executed instantly

- ` onDragStart ` Callback (activeItem)

Function that is called when the dragging starts. This can be used to lock other touch responders from listening to the touch such as ScrollViews and Swipers.

- ` onDragRelease ` Callback (itemOrder)

Function that is executed after the drag is released. Will return the new item order.

- ` onDeleteItem ` Callback (item)

Function that is executed item is deleted. Will return the properties of the deleted item.

- ` dragStartAnimation ` Object

Custom animation to override the default wiggle. Must be an object containing a key `transform`, which is an array of transformations. Read about transforms and animations and see the example to learn how to use this.

SortableGrid methods

- ` toggleDeleteMode ` accepts no arguments

Calling this will toggle item deletion mode on/off. Will return object `{ deleteModeOn: true/false }`.

SortableGrid's children's properties

- ` onTap ` Callback

Function that is executed when the block is tapped once, but not pressed for long enough to activate the drag.

- ` onDoubleTap ` Callback

Function that is executed when the block is double tapped within a timeframe of `doubleTapTreshold` (default 150ms). Assigning this will delay the execution of `onTap`. Omitting this will cause all taps to be handled as single taps, regardless of their frequency.

- ` inactive ` Boolean

Flag to mark a child node as being inactive. If set, no touch events will be fired when users interact with the node.

onDragRelease return value looks like this:

`
Object {

itemOrder: Array [
0: Object {
key: "1"
order: 0
ref: null
}
1: Object {
key: "5"
order: 1
ref: null
}
n: Object ...
]

}
`

Full SortableGrid example:

`
blockTransitionDuration = { 400 }
activeBlockCenteringDuration = { 200 }
itemsPerRow = { 4 }
dragActivationTreshold = { 200 }
onDragRelease = { (itemOrder) => console.log("Drag was released, the blocks are in the following order: ", itemOrder) }
onDragStart = { () => console.log("Some block is being dragged now!") } >

{
['a', 'b', 'c'].map( (letter, index) =>

console.log("Item number:", index, "was tapped!") }>
{letter}


)
}

Demos

Basic item deletion
toggleDeleteMode() is called during onTap in this example







Custom block animation can be passed to the grid

Smooth resizing of the grid when the last row becomes empty:

No grid resizing if the grid has flex:1 assigned:

The item drag is constrained within the grid:

With flex:1 there is more space to drag:
