SortableUibundle

It's totally rework for a better gui.

The original 'bundle' provided by : https://github.com/pix-digital/pixSortableBehaviorBundle

The original 'cookbook' proived by : https://github.com/sonata-project/SonataAdminBundle/blob/master/Resources/doc/cookbook/recipe_sortable_listing.rst

In the future features :

• multi level drag and drop

• improve performance code

• comment the code

Configuration

# app/config/config.yml
aliocza_sortable_ui:
    db_driver: orm # default value : orm (orm is only supported)
    position_field:
        default: sort #default value : position
        entities:
            AppBundle/Entity/Foobar: order
            AppBundle/Entity/Baz: rang

Cookbook for Sonata Admin

Pre-requisites

• you already have SonataAdmin and DoctrineORM up and running

• you already have an Entity class for which you want to implement a sortable feature. For the purpose of the example we are going to call it Client.

• you already have an Admin set up, in this example we will call it ClientAdmin

Bundles

• install gedmo/doctrine-extensions bundle in your project (check stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle for easier integration in your project) and enable the sortable feature in your config. For how to install bundle : http://symfony.com/doc/current/bundles/StofDoctrineExtensionsBundle/index.html
• install aliocza/sortable-ui-bundle in your project

The recipe

First of all we are going to add a position field in our Client entity.

    use Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation as Gedmo;
    // ...
    /**
     * @Gedmo\SortablePosition
     * @ORM\Column(name="position", type="integer")
     */
    private $position;

Then we need to inject the Sortable listener. If you only have the Gedmo bundle enabled, you only have to add the listener to your config.yml and skip this step.

services:
    gedmo.listener.sortable:
        class: Gedmo\Sortable\SortableListener
        tags:
            - { name: doctrine.event_subscriber, connection: default }
        calls:
            - [ setAnnotationReader, [ "@annotation_reader" ] ]

In our ClientAdmin we are going to add a custom action in the configureListFields method and use the default twig template provided in the alioczaSortableUiBundle

	$listMapper
	    ->add('_action', 'actions', array(
            'actions' => array(
                'drag' => array(
                            'template' => 'AlioczaSortableUiBundle:Default:drag.html.twig'
                ),
            )
        )
    );

In order to add new routes for these actions we are also adding the following method and we override the template for add button

    <?php
    // src/AppBundle/Admin/ClientAdmin.php

    namespace AppBundle/Admin;

    use Sonata\AdminBundle\Route\RouteCollection;
    // ...
    private $positionService;
    
    protected $datagridValues = array(
        '_sort_order' => 'ASC',
        '_sort_by' => 'position',
        );
    
    protected function configureRoutes(RouteCollection $collection) {
    // ...
        $collection->add('drag', 'drag');
    }
    
    public function configure() {
        $this->setTemplate('list', 'AlioczaSortableUiBundle:CRUD:base_list.html.twig');
    }

    public function setPositionService(\Aliocza\SortableUiBundle\Services\PositionHandler $positionHandler) {
        $this->positionService = $positionHandler;
    }
    

Now you can update your services.yml to use the handler provider by the alioczaSortableUiBundle

	services:
	    app.admin.client:
	        class: AppBundle\Admin\ClientAdmin
	        tags:
	            - { name: sonata.admin, manager_type: orm, label: "Clients" }
	        arguments:
	            - ~
	            - AppBundle\Entity\Client
	            - 'AlioczaSortableUiBundle:SortableUiAdmin' # define the new controller via the third argument
	        calls:
	            - [ setTranslationDomain, [AppBundle]]
	            - [ setPositionService, ['@aliocza_sortable_ui.position']]
