4 | **~~DEVELOPER NEEDED~~**
5 | **~~I'm sorry to say that I am not able to keep the pace developing this project anymore. I know how much nestedSortable is important for web applications, and I still can't understand why it's not part of jQuery-UI. I also think the base of the plugin is very strong, and deserves much more attention and involvement. If anybody is willing to take this project, please say so [here](https://github.com/mjsarfatti/nestedSortable/issues/95).~~**

8 | # nestedSortable jQuery plugin
9 |
10 | *nestedSortable* is a jQuery plugin that extends jQuery Sortable UI functionalities to nested lists.
11 | *Note:* **Version 2.0** *is published in branch '2.0alpha' and is ready for testing! At the moment it has only been tested in Firefox and Chrome, if you work with IE feel free to give it a shot and let me know if something goes wrong.*
12 |
13 | ## Features
14 |
15 | - Designed to work seamlessly with the [nested](http://articles.sitepoint.com/article/hierarchical-data-database "A Sitepoint tutorial on PHP, MYSQL and nested sets") [set](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_set_model "Wikipedia article on nested sets") model (have a look at the `toArray` method)
16 | - Items can be sorted in their own list, moved across the tree, or nested under other items.
17 | - Sublists are created and deleted on the fly
18 | - All jQuery Sortable options, events and methods are available
19 | - It is possible to define elements that will not accept a new nested item/list and a maximum depth for nested items
20 | - The root level can be protected
21 |
22 | ## Usage
23 |
24 | ```
25 |
26 | Some content
27 | -
28 |
Some content
29 |
30 | Some sub-item content
31 | Some sub-item content
32 |
33 |
34 | Some content
35 |
36 | ```
37 |
38 | ```
39 | $(document).ready(function(){
40 |
41 | $('.sortable').nestedSortable({
42 | handle: 'div',
43 | items: 'li',
44 | toleranceElement: '> div'
45 | });
46 |
47 | });
48 | ```
49 |
50 | Please note: every `` must have either one or two direct children, the first one being a container element (such as `` in the above example), and the (optional) second one being the nested list. The container element has to be set as the 'toleranceElement' in the options, and this, or one of its children, as the 'handle'.
51 |
52 | Also, the default list type is `
`.
53 |
54 | ## Custom Options
55 |
56 |
57 | - tabSize
58 | - How far right or left (in pixels) the item has to travel in order to be nested or to be sent outside its current list. Default: 20
59 | - disableNesting
60 | - The class name of the items that will not accept nested lists. Default: ui-nestedSortable-no-nesting
61 | - errorClass
62 | - The class given to the placeholder in case of error. Default: ui-nestedSortable-error
63 | - listType
64 | - The list type used (ordered or unordered). Default: ol
65 | - maxLevels
66 | - The maximum depth of nested items the list can accept. If set to '0' the levels are unlimited. Default: 0
67 | - protectRoot
68 | - Wether to protect the root level (i.e. root items can be sorted but not nested, sub-items cannot become root items). Default: false
69 | - rootID
70 | - The id given to the root element (set this to whatever suits your data structure). Default: null
71 | - rtl
72 | - Set this to true if you have a right-to-left page. Default: false
73 | - isAllowed (function)
74 | - You can specify a custom function to verify if a drop location is allowed. Default: function(item, parent) { return true; }
75 |
76 |
77 | ## Custom Methods
78 |
79 |
80 | - serialize
81 | - Serializes the nested list into a string like setName[item1Id]=parentId&setName[item2Id]=parentId, reading from each item's id formatted as 'setName_itemId' (where itemId is a number).
82 | It accepts the same options as the original Sortable method (key, attribute and expression).
83 | - toArray
84 | - Builds an array where each element is in the form:
85 |
setName[n] =>
86 | {
87 | 'item_id': itemId,
88 | 'parent_id': parentId,
89 | 'depth': depth,
90 | 'left': left,
91 | 'right': right,
92 | }
93 |
94 | It accepts the same options as the original Sortable method (attribute and expression) plus the custom startDepthCount, that sets the starting depth number (default is 0).
95 | - toHierarchy
96 | - Builds a hierarchical object in the form:
97 |
'0' ...
98 | 'id' => itemId
99 | '1' ...
100 | 'id' => itemId
101 | 'children' ...
102 | '0' ...
103 | 'id' => itemId
104 | '1' ...
105 | 'id' => itemId
106 | '2' ...
107 | 'id' => itemId
108 |
109 | Similarly to toArray, it accepts attribute and expression options.
110 |
111 |
112 | ## Known Bugs
113 |
114 | *nestedSortable* doesn't work properly with connected draggables, because of the way Draggable simulates Sortable `mouseStart` and `mouseStop` events. This bug might or might not be fixed some time in the future (it's not specific to this plugin).
115 |
116 | ## Requirements
117 |
118 | jQuery 1.4+
119 | jQuery UI Sortable 1.8+
120 |
121 | ## Browser Compatibility
122 |
123 | Tested with: IE 6/7/8, Firefox 3.6/4, Chrome, Safari 3
