ion-reorder-group

The reorder group is a wrapper component for items using the ion-reorder component. See the Reorder documentation for further information about the anchor component that is used to drag items within the ion-reorder-group.

Once the user drags an item and drops it in a new position, the ionItemReorder event is dispatched. A handler for it should be implemented that calls the complete() method.

The detail property of the ionItemReorder event includes all of the relevant information about the reorder operation, including the from and to indexes. In the context of reordering, an item moves from an index to a new index.

Usage

Angular

<!-- The reorder gesture is disabled by default, enable it to drag and drop items -->
<ion-reorder-group (ionItemReorder)="doReorder($event)" disabled="false">
  <!-- Default reorder icon, end aligned items -->
  <ion-item>

  <ion-item>
    <ion-label> Item 2 </ion-label>
    <ion-reorder slot="end"></ion-reorder>
  </ion-item>

  <!-- Default reorder icon, start aligned items -->

Properties

disabled

Description	If true, the reorder will be hidden.
Attribute	disabled
Type	boolean
Default	true

Events

Name	Description
ionItemReorder	Event that needs to be listened to in order to complete the reorder action.

Once the event has been emitted, the complete() method then needs to be called in order to finalize the reorder action. |

Methods

complete

Description

Completes the reorder operation. Must be called by the ionItemReorder event. If a list of items is passed, the list will be reordered and returned in the proper order. If no parameters are passed or if true is passed in, the reorder will complete and the item will remain in the position it was dragged to. If false is passed, the reorder will complete and the item will bounce back to its original position.

Signature

complete(listOrReorder?: boolean \| any[] \| undefined) => Promise<any>
