Installing

pnpm add @neodrag/vanilla

# npm
npm install @neodrag/vanilla

# yarn
yarn add @neodrag/vanilla

Usage

Basic usage

import { Draggable } from '@neodrag/vanilla';

const dragInstance = new Draggable(document.querySelector('#drag'));

With options

import { Draggable } from '@neodrag/vanilla';

const dragInstance = new Draggable(document.querySelector('#drag'), {
	axis: 'x',
	grid: [10, 10],
});

Defining options elsewhere with typescript

import { type Draggable } from '@neodrag/vanilla';

const options: DragOptions = {
	axis: 'y',
	bounds: 'parent',
};

const dragInstance = new Draggable(document.querySelector('#drag'), options);

Update options:

import { Draggable } from '@neodrag/vanilla';

const dragInstance = new Draggable(document.querySelector('#drag'), {
	axis: 'x',
	grid: [10, 10],
});

// Update the specific options. Will be merged with the existing options.
dragInstance.update({
	axis: 'y',
});

// Completely overrides existing options, in this case, the `grid` property is removed
dragInstance.options = {
	axis: 'y',
};

Using via CDN

For users who prefer not to install the package and instead use it directly in their projects via a CDN, you can include @neodrag/vanilla directly in your HTML files. This is particularly useful for quick prototyping or projects where you want to avoid a build step. Here’s how to include it using different CDNs:

Using Unpkg

Include the library in your HTML using the following <script> tag. This will load the latest version of @neodrag/vanilla directly from unpkg:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@neodrag/vanilla@latest/dist/umd/index.js"> </script>

Using jsDelivr

Alternatively, you can use jsDelivr as a CDN to load @neodrag/vanilla. Include the following line in your HTML:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@neodrag/vanilla@latest/dist/umd/index.js"> </script>

Usage with CDN

After including the library via a CDN, @neodrag/vanilla will be available as a global variable NeoDrag. Here’s how you can use it to make an element draggable:

<div id="drag">Drag me!</div> <script>   var dragInstance = new NeoDrag.Draggable(document.getElementById('drag')); </script>

This method allows you to use @neodrag/vanilla without any build tools or npm installations, directly in your browser.
