Supported Use Cases

There are 2 types of lists available for use. You can use an ungrouped list if you don't want to transfer items between lists or you can use a grouped list which gives you the ability to transfer data from one list to another by dragging and dropping the list item.

Below are supported use case scenarios for grouped and ungrouped lists.

Wrapped reorderable list group (Basic Usage)

A group of lists wrapped within a ReOrderableListGroup. Lists within the group can transfer data to each other. Provides less setup and a cleaner configuration for generic grouped lists.

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import {
  ReOrderableItem,
  ReOrderableList,
  ReOrderableListGroup
} from 'react-reorderable-list'
import 'react-reorderable-list/dist/index.css'

export default function () {
  //sample data
  const [group, setGroup] = useState([
    [
      { id: 1, name: 'Test' },
      { id: 2, name: 'Hello' },
      { id: 3, name: 'World!' }
    ],
    [
      { id: 1, name: 'Item' },
      { id: 2, name: 'Name' }
    ]
  ])

  return (
    <div style={{ display: 'flex', gap: '20px' }}>
      <ReOrderableListGroup
        //The name for this group must be unique as this serves as the identifier
        //when validating if the item should be transfered to the list or not.
        //Items can only be transferred to the list with the same group name.
        name='uniqueGroupName'
        //group data
        group={group}
        //update list group
        onListGroupUpdate={(newList) => setGroup(newList)}
      >
        {group.map((list, index) => (
          <ReOrderableList key={`list-${index}`} style={{ width: '300px' }}>
            {list.map((data, index) => (
              <ReOrderableItem key={`item-${index}`}>
                <div style={{ border: '1px solid black' }}>{data.name}</div>
              </ReOrderableItem>
            ))}
          </ReOrderableList>
        ))}
      </ReOrderableListGroup>
    </div>
  )
}

Using the path property to access your list array.

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import {
  ReOrderableItem,
  ReOrderableList,
  ReOrderableListGroup
} from 'react-reorderable-list'
import 'react-reorderable-list/dist/index.css'

export default function () {
  //sample data
  const [groups, setGroup] = useState([
    {
      id: 1,
      name: 'test',
      tasks: [
        { id: 1, name: 'Test' },
        { id: 2, name: 'Hello' },
        { id: 3, name: 'World!' }
      ]
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      name: 'test2',
      tasks: [
        { id: 1, name: 'Item' },
        { id: 2, name: 'Name' }
      ]
    }
  ])

  return (
    <div style={{ display: 'flex', gap: '20px' }}>
      <ReOrderableListGroup
        //The name for this group must be unique as this serves as the identifier
        //when validating if the item should be transfered to the list or not.
        //Items can only be transferred to the list with the same group name.
        name='uniqueGroupName'
        //group data
        group={groups}
        //update list group
        onListGroupUpdate={(newList) => setGroup(newList)}
      >
        {groups.map((list, index) => (
          //here we use the path property to access the list array from the object
          <ReOrderableList
            key={`list-${index}`}
            path={`${index}.tasks`}
            style={{ width: '300px' }}
          >
            {list.tasks.map((data, index) => (
              <ReOrderableItem key={`item-${index}`}>
                <div style={{ border: '1px solid black' }}>{data.name}</div>
              </ReOrderableItem>
            ))}
          </ReOrderableList>
        ))}
      </ReOrderableListGroup>
    </div>
  )
}

Unwrapped reorderable list group

A group of lists not bound within a ReOrderableListGroup component. Useful for use cases where you need to put multiple reorderable lists into different components while still making them interactable with each other. A state management system such as Redux is required for managing app states for such scenarios.

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import { ReOrderableItem, ReOrderableList } from 'react-reorderable-list'
import 'react-reorderable-list/dist/index.css'

export default function () {
  //sample data
  const [group, setGroup] = useState([
    [
      { id: 1, name: 'Ayy ' },
      { id: 2, name: 'This ' },
      { id: 3, name: 'One' },
      { id: 4, name: 'Is' }
    ],
    [
      { id: 1, name: 'An example of' },
      { id: 2, name: 'A non wrapped' },
      { id: 3, name: 'list group' }
    ]
  ])

  return (
    <div style={{ display: 'flex', gap: '20px' }}>
      <ReOrderableList
        //The name for this group must be unique as this serves as the identifier
        //when validating if the item should be transfered to the list or not.
        //Items can only be transferred to the list with the same group name.
        name='list3'
        //group data
        group={group}
        //The object path that tells our component where to access the actual array for our list.
        //For lists not embedded within an object simply use the index for our list.
        //The path below retrieves the 1st list from our group.
        path={0}
        //our list update callback
        onListUpdate={(newList) => setGroup(newList)}
        style={{
          width: '300px'
        }}
      >
        {group[0].map((data, index) => (
          <ReOrderableItem key={`item-${index}`}>
            <div
              style={{
                border: '1px solid black'
              }}
            >
              {data.name}
            </div>
          </ReOrderableItem>
        ))}
      </ReOrderableList>

      <ReOrderableList
        //The name for this group must be unique as this serves as the identifier
        //when validating if the item should be transfered to the list or not.
        //Items can only be transferred to the list with the same group name.
        name='list3'
        group={group}
        //The object path that tells our component where to access the actual array for our list.
        //For lists not embedded within an object simply use the index for our list.
        //The path below retrieves the 2nd list from our group.
        path={1}
        //our list update callback
        onListUpdate={(newList) => setGroup(newList)}
        style={{
          width: '300px'
        }}
      >
        {group[1].map((data, index) => (
          <ReOrderableItem key={`item-${index}`}>
            <div
              style={{
                border: '1px solid black'
              }}
            >
              {data.name}
            </div>
          </ReOrderableItem>
        ))}
      </ReOrderableList>
    </div>
  )
}

Ungrouped list

Ungrouped lists cannot transfer and recieve items from other lists. You can only reorder items from within the list.

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import { ReOrderableItem, ReOrderableList } from 'react-reorderable-list'
import 'react-reorderable-list/dist/index.css'

export default function () {
  //sample data
  const [list, setList] = useState([
    { id: 1, name: 'This' },
    { id: 2, name: 'list' },
    { id: 2, name: 'is restricted' },
    { id: 2, name: 'to itself' }
  ])

  return (
    <div style={{ display: 'flex', gap: '20px' }}>
      <ReOrderableList
        //The unique identifier for this list. Should be unique from other lists and list groups.
        name='list2'
        //your list data
        list={list}
        //the list update callback
        onListUpdate={(newList) => setList(newList)}
        style={{
          width: '300px'
        }}
      >
        {list.map((data, index) => (
          <ReOrderableItem key={`item-${index}`}>
            <div
              style={{
                border: '1px solid black'
              }}
            >
              {data.name}
            </div>
          </ReOrderableItem>
        ))}
      </ReOrderableList>
    </div>
  )
}
