Angular Drag and Drop

A Native ( without jquery ) Drag and Drop directive for AngularJS using HTML5 Drag and Drop

---

ui-draggable(expression)

Directive in module ang-drag-drop (since 1.0.5 - old module name ngDragDrop)

The ui-draggable attribute tells Angular that the element is draggable. ui-draggable takes an expression as the attribute value. The expression should evaluate to either true or false. You can toggle the draggability of an element using this expression.

Additional Attributes

The class used to mark child elements of draggable object to be used as drag handle. Default class name is drag-handle

NOTE: If attribute is not present drag handle feature is not active.

drag-handle-class(string)

The drag property is used to assign the data that needs to be passed along with the dragging element.

on-drop-success(function)

The on-drop-success attribute takes a function. We can consider this to be an on-drop-success handler function. This can be useful if you need to do some post processing after the dragged element is dropped successfully on the drop site.

NOTE: This callback function is only called when the drop succeeds. You can request the drag-end event ( very similiar to requesting the click event in ng-click ) by passing $event in the event handler.

on-drop-failure(function)

The on-drop-failure attribute takes a function. We can consider this to be an on-drop-failure handler function. This can be useful if you need to do some post processing after the dragged element is dropped unsuccessfully on any drop site.

drag-channel(string)

The on-drop-failure attribute takes a function. We can consider this to be an on-drop-failure handler function. This can be useful if you need to do some post processing after the dragged element is dropped unsuccessfully on any drop site.
