#Usage

Use sortable method to create a sortable list:

$('.sortable').sortable();

Use .sortable-dragging and .sortable-placeholder CSS selectors to change the styles of a dragging item and its placeholder respectively.

Use sortstart event if you want to do something when sorting starts:

$('.sortable').sortable().bind('sortstart', function(e, ui) {
    /*

    This event is triggered when the user starts sorting and the DOM position has not yet changed.

    ui.item contains the current dragged element.
    ui.startparent contains the element that the dragged item comes from

    */
});

Use sortupdate event if you want to do something when the order changes (e.g. storing the new order):

$('.sortable').sortable().bind('sortupdate', function(e, ui) {
    /*

    This event is triggered when the user stopped sorting and the DOM position has changed.

    ui.item contains the current dragged element.
    ui.item.index() contains the new index of the dragged element
    ui.oldindex contains the old index of the dragged element
    ui.startparent contains the element that the dragged item comes from
    ui.endparent contains the element that the dragged item was added to

    */
});

Use items option to specifiy which items inside the element should be sortable:

$('.sortable').sortable({
    items: ':not(.disabled)'
});

Use handle option to restrict drag start to the specified element:

$('.sortable').sortable({
    handle: 'h2'
});

Setting forcePlaceholderSize option to true, forces the placeholder to have a height:

$('.sortable').sortable({
    forcePlaceholderSize: true
});

Use connectWith option to create connected lists:

$('#sortable1, #sortable2').sortable({
    connectWith: '.connected'
});

Use placeholder option to specify the markup of the placeholder:

$('.sortable').sortable({
	items: 'tr' ,
	placeholder : '<tr><td colspan="7">&nbsp;</td></tr>'
});

To remove the sortable functionality completely:

$('.sortable').sortable('destroy');

To disable the sortable temporarily:

$('.sortable').sortable('disable');

To enable a disabled sortable:

$('.sortable').sortable('enable');

To reload a sortable:

$('.sortable').sortable('reload');

The API is compatible with jquery-ui. So you can use jquery-ui as a polyfill in older browsers:

yepnope({
    test: Modernizr.draganddrop,
    yep: 'html.sortable.js',
    nope: 'jquery-ui.min.js',
    complete: function() {
        $('.sortable').sortable().bind('sortupdate', function(e, ui) {
            //Store the new order.
        }
    }
});

#AngularJS usage

Make your app use the htmlSortable module. Assign html sortable options to the html-sortable tag, specify an ng-model and, optionally, specify a callback using html-sortable-callback.

$scope.sortableOptions = {
	placeholder: '<div class="sortable-placeholder col-md-3"><div></div></div>',
  	forcePlaceholderSize: true
};

$scope.sortableCallback = function (startModel, destModel, start, end) {
	// ...
};

<ul html-sortable="sortableOptions" html-sortable-callback="sortableCallback" ng-model='data1'>
	<li ng-repeat="itm in data1">
   		{{itm}}
   </li>
</ul>
