Handle nodereferences with drop areas as widgets

README

This modules provides a simple node-reference like field, and a drag'n'drop widget to manipulate it.

Getting started

Set-up

Install the module, create a field, you're good to go.

Use with Dragula

This is the recommended version, for this to work, you need to download and install the dragula Drupal module, which can be pulled using composer:

composer require makinacorpus/drupal-dragula
drush -y en dragula

This is a drag and drop based widget, in order to work, you must have draggable elements in the page. If you are using this module as a dependency of the µCMS module then you have nothing to do, in all other cases, you must provide in the page a content selector whose markup respect those rules:

  • container must carry the data-layout-source=1 attribute;
  • elements must carry the data-item-type=node attribute;
  • element must carry the data-item-id=NID attribute (where NID is te node identifier);
  • element should carry the data-bundle=BUNDLE attribute (where BUNDLE is the node type).

For example:

<div id="my-content-selector" data-layout-source="1">
  <div data-item-type="node" data-item-id="1" data-bundle="page">
    <h2>Page 1</h2>
    Any content, could be a view mode.
  </div>
  <div data-item-type="node" data-item-id="2" data-bundle="article">
    <h2>Article 2</h2>
    Any content, could be a view mode.
  </div>
  <!-- Etc... -->
</div>

There is nothing else to do, the JavaScript code will automatically find all content sources that matches those conditions, and use it for drag and drop.

Use with jQuery sortable/droppable

This is not supported anymore, but you may still use the legacy jQuery based version. It needs to be documented.
