    import { BrowserModule  } from '@angular/platform-browser';
    import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
    import { NguiSortableModule } from '@ngui/sortable';
    
    @NgModule({

For full example, please check out test directory to see the example of;

• systemjs.config.js
• app.module.ts

Usage it in your code

add hammer.js in your html

<script src="../node_modules/hammerjs/hammer.js"></script>

You are ready. use it in your template

<ul ngui-sortable>
  <li id="order">Order</li>
  <li id="me">Me</li>
  <li id="right">Right</li>
  <li id="the">The</li>
  <li id="into">Into</li>
  <li id="put">Put</li>
</ul>

Without css, it still works, but for better styling, please use some css. e.g.;

ul[ngui-sortable] {
   padding: 10px; 
   border: 1px solid #ccc;
  list-style: none; 
  display: block
}
ul[ngui-sortable] li {
  padding: 10px 5px;
  background: #4986e7;
  color: #fff; 
  border: 1px solid #fff;
  display: block; 
  position: relative
}
ul[ngui-sortable] li.drag-enter {
  border-top: 2px solid yellow;
}

For Developers

Things to know to understand the implementation;

1. transform: 'translate(x, y)'
   when drag an element. which sets the position of an element to a new one, described by two vectors (x, y). The y value is optional.

2. document.elementFromPoint(x, y)
   The elementFromPoint() method of the Document interface returns the topmost element at the specified coordinates. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/elementFromPoint

3. pan events(a gesture event)

   • event.center {Object} center position of the touches. contains pageX and pageY
   • event.deltaTime {Number} the total time of the touches in the screen
   • event.deltaX {Number} the delta on x axis we haved moved
   • event.deltaY {Number} the delta on y axis we haved moved
