README

A lightweight Symfony UX wrapper around SortableJS using AssetMapper & Stimulus.

Symfony UX Sortable integrates SortableJS into Symfony applications using:

• AssetMapper (no Webpack/Vite required)
• Stimulus
• Twig helper
• Importmap

Features

• Drag & drop reordering
• Fully configurable SortableJS options
• Clean Twig API
• Zero build step

Compatible with Symfony 7.4 / 8+

Installation

composer require aymericcucherousset/ux-sortable

If you are using Symfony Flex, the bundle is auto-registered.

Then install JavaScript dependencies:

php bin/console importmap:install

Basic Usage

Twig

<ul {{ sortable_attributes() }}>
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
</ul>

That’s it. Drag & drop is now enabled.

Passing Options

You can pass any SortableJS option:

<ul {{ sortable_attributes({
    group: 'tasks',
    animation: 150,
    ghostClass: 'bg-gray-200'
}) }}>
    <li>Task A</li>
    <li>Task B</li>
</ul>

Options are automatically encoded as a valid JSON object.

How It Works

Registers a Stimulus controller Uses AssetMapper to expose JS assets Wraps SortableJS Generates correct Stimulus data attributes via Twig Generated HTML example:

<ul
  data-controller="aymericcucherousset--ux-sortable--sortable"
  data-aymericcucherousset--ux-sortable--sortable-options-value='{"animation":150}'
>

Requirements

• PHP 8.3+
• Symfony 7.4+ or 8+
• symfony/stimulus-bundle
• symfony/asset-mapper

Advanced Usage

You can still access the controller manually if needed:

<ul
  data-controller="aymericcucherousset--ux-sortable--sortable"
  data-aymericcucherousset--ux-sortable--sortable-options-value='{"animation":300}'
>

• TypeScript support
• Auto persistence helper
