Package Exports
- react-grid-dnd
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-grid-dnd) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme

react-grid-dnd
Grid style drag and drop, built with React. See a live example on codesandbox. You can also see it in action here.
Features
- Supports dragging between arbitrary number of lists.
- Built with react-gesture-responder to enable better control over gesture delegation.
- Disable drop targets or dragging altogether
- Animated with react-spring
Install
Install react-grid-dnd
and react-gesture-responder
using yarn or npm.
yarn add react-grid-dnd react-gesture-responder
Usage
Because GridItem
components are rendered with absolute positioning, you need to ensure that GridDropZone
has a specified height or flex, like in the example below.
import {
GridContextProvider,
GridDropZone,
GridItem,
swap
} from "react-grid-dnd";
function Example() {
const [items, setItems] = React.useState([1, 2, 3, 4]); // supply your own state
// target id will only be set if dragging from one dropzone to another.
function onChange(sourceId, sourceIndex, targetIndex, targetId) {
const nextState = swap(items, sourceIndex, targetIndex);
setItems(nextState);
}
return (
<GridContextProvider onChange={onChange}>
<GridDropZone
id="items"
boxesPerRow={4}
rowHeight={100}
style={{ height: "400px" }}
>
{items.map(item => (
<GridItem key={item}>
<div
style={{
width: "100%",
height: "100%"
}}
>
{item}
</div>
</GridItem>
))}
</GridDropZone>
</GridContextProvider>
);
}
Dragging between lists
You can see this example in action on codesandbox.
import {
GridContextProvider,
GridDropZone,
GridItem,
swap,
move
} from "react-grid-dnd";
function App() {
const [items, setItems] = React.useState({
left: [
{ id: 1, name: "ben" },
{ id: 2, name: "joe" },
{ id: 3, name: "jason" },
{ id: 4, name: "chris" },
{ id: 5, name: "heather" },
{ id: 6, name: "Richard" }
],
right: [
{ id: 7, name: "george" },
{ id: 8, name: "rupert" },
{ id: 9, name: "alice" },
{ id: 10, name: "katherine" },
{ id: 11, name: "pam" },
{ id: 12, name: "katie" }
]
});
function onChange(sourceId, sourceIndex, targetIndex, targetId) {
if (targetId) {
const result = move(
items[sourceId],
items[targetId],
sourceIndex,
targetIndex
);
return setItems({
...items,
[sourceId]: result[0],
[targetId]: result[1]
});
}
const result = swap(items[sourceId], sourceIndex, targetIndex);
return setItems({
...items,
[sourceId]: result
});
}
return (
<GridContextProvider onChange={onChange}>
<div className="container">
<GridDropZone
className="dropzone left"
id="left"
boxesPerRow={4}
rowHeight={70}
>
{items.left.map(item => (
<GridItem key={item.name}>
<div className="grid-item">
<div className="grid-item-content">
{item.name[0].toUpperCase()}
</div>
</div>
</GridItem>
))}
</GridDropZone>
<GridDropZone
className="dropzone right"
id="right"
boxesPerRow={4}
rowHeight={70}
>
{items.right.map(item => (
<GridItem key={item.name}>
<div className="grid-item">
<div className="grid-item-content">
{item.name[0].toUpperCase()}
</div>
</div>
</GridItem>
))}
</GridDropZone>
</div>
</GridContextProvider>
);
