Package Exports

react-dnd-touch-backend

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-dnd-touch-backend) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Touch Backend for react-dnd

Usage

Follow react-dnd docs to setup your app. Then swap out HTML5Backend for TouchBackend as such:

import { default as TouchBackend } from 'react-dnd-touch-backend';
import { DragDropContext } from 'react-dnd';

var YourApp = React.createClass(
  /* ... */

);

module.exports = DragDropContext(TouchBackend)(YourApp);

Tips

Drag Preview

Since native Drag-n-Drop is not currently supported in touch devices. A custom DragPreview is required. Check out the example for a sample implementation.

We might try to build it directly in the Backend itself in the future to compensate for this limitation.

Mouse events support*

You can enable capturing mouse events by configuring your TouchBackend as follows:

DragDropContext(TouchBackend({ enableMouseEvents: true }));

NOTE: This is buggy due to the difference in touchstart/touchend event propagation compared to mousedown/mouseup/click. I highly recommend that you use react-dnd-html5-backend instead for a more performant native HTML5 drag capability.*
