How would you setup touch events to the draggable class, so that it works on iOS (iPad's, iPhone's, etc)? I have read How can I make a jQuery UI 'draggable()' div draggable for touchscreen?, which has lots of options for jQuery, but not sure how to apply that to Scriptaculous. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
You can do it by editing dragdrop.js as mention here:
In Draggables:
register: function(draggable) {
if(this.drags.length == 0) {
this.eventMouseUp = this.endDrag.bindAsEventListener(this);
this.eventMouseMove = this.updateDrag.bindAsEventListener(this);
this.eventKeypress = this.keyPress.bindAsEventListener(this);
Event.observe(document, "mouseup", this.eventMouseUp);
Event.observe(document, "mousemove", this.eventMouseMove);
Event.observe(document, "keypress", this.eventKeypress);
Event.observe(document, "touchstart", this.eventKeypress);
Event.observe(document, "touchmove", this.eventMouseMove);
Event.observe(document, "touchend", this.eventMouseUp);
}
this.drags.push(draggable);
},
unregister: function(draggable) {
this.drags = this.drags.reject(function(d) { return d==draggable });
if(this.drags.length == 0) {
Event.stopObserving(document, "touchstart", this.eventKeypress);
Event.stopObserving(document, "touchmove", this.eventMouseMove);
Event.stopObserving(document, "touchend", this.eventMouseUp);
Event.stopObserving(document, "mouseup", this.eventMouseUp);
Event.stopObserving(document, "mousemove", this.eventMouseMove);
Event.stopObserving(document, "keypress", this.eventKeypress);
}
},
In Draggable:
initialize:
...
this.eventMouseDown = this.initDrag.bindAsEventListener(this);
Event.observe(this.handle, "mousedown", this.eventMouseDown);
Event.observe(this.handle, "touchstart", this.eventMouseDown);
Draggables.register(this);
},
destroy: function() {
Event.stopObserving(this.handle, "mousedown", this.eventMouseDown);
Event.stopObserving(this.handle, "touchstart", this.eventMouseDown);
Draggables.unregister(this);
},
...
initDrag: function(event) {
if(!Object.isUndefined(Draggable._dragging[this.element]) &&
Draggable._dragging[this.element]) return;
if(Event.isLeftClick(event) || event.type == "touchstart") {
Along with editing prototype.js:
function pointerX(event) {
var docElement = document.documentElement,
body = document.body || { scrollLeft: 0 };
if (event.changedTouches) return (event.changedTouches[0].clientX +
(docElement.scrollLeft || body.scrollLeft) -
(docElement.clientLeft || 0));
return event.pageX || (event.clientX +
(docElement.scrollLeft || body.scrollLeft) -
(docElement.clientLeft || 0));
}
function pointerY(event) {
var docElement = document.documentElement,
body = document.body || { scrollTop: 0 };
if (event.changedTouches) return (event.changedTouches[0].clientY +
(docElement.scrollTop || body.scrollTop) -
(docElement.clientTop || 0));
return event.pageY || (event.clientY +
(docElement.scrollTop || body.scrollTop) -
(docElement.clientTop || 0));
}
