I made a dropdown using Button
and a Popper
using Material UI components where you can click on the button and get a list of subjects to choose from.
To make the popper disappear either we can click on the button again or use a <ClickAwayListener>
component which listens to click event and closes the Popper
.
Now I've to make the list capable of drag and drop feature so I use the react-beautiful-dnd
npm package.
But the <ClickAwayListener>
doesn't seem to work when I include <DragDropContext>
, <Droppable>
and <Draggable>
components.
Can anyone help me figure it out?
Here's the code without drag and drop feature. CodeSandbox link https://codesandbox.io/s/gallant-newton-mfmhd?file=/demo.js
const subjectsFromBackend = [
{ name: "Physics", selected: false },
{ name: "Chemistry", selected: false },
{ name: "Biology", selected: false },
{ name: "Mathematics", selected: false },
{ name: "Computer Science", selected: false },
];
const useStyles = makeStyles((theme) => ({
root: {
display: "flex"
},
paper: {
marginRight: theme.spacing(2)
}
}));
export default function MenuListComposition() {
const classes = useStyles();
const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
const anchorRef = React.useRef(null);
const [subjects, setSubjects] = React.useState(subjectsFromBackend);
const handleToggle = () => {
setOpen(!open);
};
const handleClose = () => {
setOpen(false);
};
const ColumnItem = ({ subjectName, selected }) => {
return (
<>
<Grid container>
<Grid item>
<Checkbox checked={selected} />
</Grid>
<Grid item>{subjectName}</Grid>
</Grid>
</>
);
};
return (
<div className={classes.root}>
<div>
<Button
ref={anchorRef}
onClick={handleToggle}
style={{ width: 385, justifyContent: "left", textTransform: "none" }}
>
{`Subjects Selected`}
</Button>
<Popper
open={open}
anchorEl={anchorRef.current}
role={undefined}
transition
disablePortal
>
{({ TransitionProps, placement }) => (
<Grow
{...TransitionProps}
style={{
transformOrigin:
placement === "bottom" ? "center top" : "center bottom"
}}
>
<Paper style={{ maxHeight: 200, overflow: "auto", width: 385 }}>
<ClickAwayListener onClickAway={handleClose}>
<List>
{subjects.map((col, index) => (
<ListItem>
<ColumnItem
subjectName={col.name}
selected={col.selected}
/>
</ListItem>
))}
</List>
</ClickAwayListener>
</Paper>
</Grow>
)}
</Popper>
</div>
</div>
);
}
Here's the same code using drag and drop. CodeSandbox Link https://codesandbox.io/s/material-demo-forked-ertti
const subjectsFromBackend = [
{ name: "Physics", selected: false },
{ name: "Chemistry", selected: false },
{ name: "Biology", selected: false },
{ name: "Mathematics", selected: false },
{ name: "Computer Science", selected: false },
];
const useStyles = makeStyles((theme) => ({
root: {
display: "flex"
},
paper: {
marginRight: theme.spacing(2)
}
}));
export default function MenuListComposition() {
const classes = useStyles();
const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
const anchorRef = React.useRef(null);
const [subjects, setSubjects] = React.useState(subjectsFromBackend);
const handleToggle = () => {
setOpen(!open);
};
const handleClose = () => {
setOpen(false);
};
const ColumnItem = ({ subjectName, selected }) => {
return (
<>
<Grid container>
<Grid item>
<Checkbox checked={selected} />
</Grid>
<Grid item>{subjectName}</Grid>
</Grid>
</>
);
};
const onDragEnd = (result, subjects, setSubjects) => {
const { source, destination } = result;
if (!destination) return;
if (source.droppableId !== destination.droppableId) return;
const copiedItems = [...subjects];
const [removed] = copiedItems.splice(source.index, 1);
copiedItems.splice(destination.index, 0, removed);
setSubjects(copiedItems);
};
return (
<div className={classes.root}>
<div>
<Button
ref={anchorRef}
onClick={handleToggle}
style={{ width: 385, justifyContent: "left", textTransform: "none" }}
>
{`Subjects Selected`}
</Button>
<Popper
open={open}
anchorEl={anchorRef.current}
role={undefined}
transition
disablePortal
>
{({ TransitionProps, placement }) => (
<Grow
{...TransitionProps}
style={{
transformOrigin:
placement === "bottom" ? "center top" : "center bottom"
}}
>
<DragDropContext
onDragEnd={(res) => onDragEnd(res, subjects, setSubjects)}
>
<Paper style={{ maxHeight: 200, overflow: "auto", width: 385 }}>
<ClickAwayListener onClickAway={handleClose}>
<Droppable droppableId={"subjectsColumn"}>
{(provided, snapshot) => (
<div
{...provided.droppableProps}
ref={provided.innerRef}
>
<List>
{subjects.map((col, index) => (
<Draggable
key={col.name}
draggableId={col.name}
index={index}
>
{(provided, snapshot) => (
<div
ref={provided.innerRef}
{...provided.draggableProps}
{...provided.dragHandleProps}
>
<ListItem>
<ColumnItem
subjectName={col.name}
selected={col.selected}
/>
</ListItem>
</div>
)}
</Draggable>
))}
</List>
{provided.placeholder}
</div>
)}
</Droppable>
</ClickAwayListener>
</Paper>
</DragDropContext>
</Grow>
)}
</Popper>
</div>
</div>
);
}
I found out that the ClickAwayListener
's child component should be wrapped around a div
so that the click event could be triggered properly.
