Portlets with Jquery UI

Hi,

I would like to make something like this: http://interface.eyecon.ro/demos/sort.html
with jquery-ui.
That example uses the old jquery interface plugin.

So i need the ui.sortable.js alternative for this code:

$('div.groupWrapper').Sortable(
        {
                accept: 'groupItem',
                helperclass: 'sortHelper',
                activeclass : 'sortableactive',
                hoverclass : 'sortablehover',
                handle: 'div.itemHeader',
                tolerance: 'pointer',
}
);

I have found these alternatives:

accept = items
helperclass = helper
hoverclass = hoverClass

I can't find anything for the handle or tolerance options in
ui.sortable. Is this possible or not? I would really like to use
ui.sortable instead of the interface plugin, because interface doesn't
always work right with the newest jquery.

thanks.

Good luck. I asked this question a while back and there are no good
examples of sortables with UI like what you mentioned.

This is the best I could come up with...at the time, http://btk.name/jquery/sortables/
and I don't even know if everything about my syntax, etc... is valid.

I am going to continue using Interface as it seems to be the most
stable until Jquery FX is released.

I'm going to be taking a look at the sortables code in the next 1-2 weeks, specifically with your use case in mind. I'll post back here when I've made some progress. Thanks for your patience.

Hello Richard,

Have you found a solution yet? I'm facing these same problems, I would especially like to use handles on my draggables... Thank you!

Hello,

Thanks but that's what I'm using right now (it uses interface).
As he initial poster asked we wanted a way of doing this using the new
jquery ui.

Richard, were you able to make this work?

Hello,

I'm another person watching this thread for possible movements in this
direction.  Are you still planning on working on this Richard?  Or did
it make room for something else?

Thanks!

Add me to the list of interested parties.

Like the first poster, I've been using Interface, but it keeps
breaking each time there's a new jQuery release. I'd rather use the
'official' UI, but it doesn't yet perform quite in the way I'd like
(brilliant though it already is).

Steve

It seems UI development sponsored by Liferay will add soon such features... ;-)

Great news.

Is there somewhere I can hover for updates that's better than this
thread?

Hi,

The interface I am currently working on requires a lot of user
customization capabilities which can only be achieved with portlets/
widgets.  I have been searching for a good and stable implementation
for a while now and found the prototype implementation (http://
blog.xilinus.com/prototype-portal/test/index.html) and the JQuery &
interface implementation (http://host.sonspring.com/portlets/)  No
stable JQuery UI implementation yet.

I would much rather use JQuery than prototype, but interface is no
longer supported and JQuery UI is not released yet.  I tried getting
something to work with JQuery UI 1.5b but the sortable library is far
from complete.

I just read that JQuery UI 1.5 is supposed to be released in late
February, early March 2008, so it's already overdue.  So I don't know
if the release is going to be delayed even more, or if some of the
functionality will not be included in the release.

I didn't look at any of the libraries, except the sortable library,
and found that:
- you can't connectWith so having multiple columns of portlest is not
working.
- when I did get connectWith to work with an older release, moving
sortables between different width columns changed the widths of the
columns.  So if I had three columns, 30%, 60%, and 10%, moving a
portlet from the 60% column to the 30% column would cause the 30%
column to stretch to 60% wide, and the 60% wide column would shrink to
30%, and not always, there was no consistency on how this behaved.
- opacity is not working.
- the helper div is always on top of the sortable.

So I guess my question is, should I keep trying to get the portlet
idea working using JQuery UI, hoping that the issues with sortable get
fixed, or should I just use prototype's implementation?  Is there any
hope that the JQuery UI implementation will be as stable and robust as
the prototype implementation any time soon?

Thanks,

Kape

Hi Kape,

the sortable implementation is a lot more complete then all others at this point - it features a lot more callbacks and ways of interaction. This exact same implementation is now used in Liferay for their portlets, and so far it works pretty fine.
We did a lot of improvements even after the 1.5b release - please grab the newest version from SVN and give it a try.

Thanks,
Paul

fixed, or should I just use prototype's implementation?  Is there any
hope that the JQuery UI implementation will be as stable and robust as
the prototype implementation any time soon?

Thanks,

Kape

Thanks Paul; that makes me a little more confident about the JQuery UI
implementation.  I actually just found the Liferay demo yesterday
after writing my post.  Isn't that one using Apache Pluto though?  I
did look at the source code and saw a lot of JQuery stuff.

I will give it a try with the latest code from SVN, although I wish
there was an example I can just modify for my needs, and more
documentation around how to build portlets in JQuery UI.  I'm sure
it's out there; it's just a matter of finding it.  I just don't have
too much time to search.

Thanks again,

Kape

I've actually managed to get things working, thanks again Paul.

I do still have a few problems:

1. The placeholder is always on top of the helper div in IE, works
fine in FF.
2. The helper is under later drawn columns.  So if I move a div from
column 1 to column 2, it appears under all divs in column 2 but not
vice versa.  Also only in IE.
3. I can't seem to be able to get the width of the current column so I
can assign it to the placeholder.

If anyone could help me out with these issues, I'd really appreciate
it.

Thanks,

Kape
