# React Native Draggable FlatList

A drag-and-drop-enabled FlatList component for React Native.<br />
Fully native interactions powered by [Reanimated](https://github.com/kmagiera/react-native-reanimated) and [React Native Gesture Handler](https://github.com/kmagiera/react-native-gesture-handler).<br /><br />
To use swipeable list items in a DraggableFlatList see [React Native Swipeable Item](https://github.com/computerjazz/react-native-swipeable-item).

### Props

All props are spread onto underlying [FlatList](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/flatlist)

|`itemEnteringAnimation`| Reanimated `AnimationBuilder` ([docs](https://docs.swmansion.com/react-native-reanimated/docs/api/LayoutAnimations/entryAnimations)) | Animation when item is added to list.|
|`itemExitingAnimation`| Reanimated `AnimationBuilder` ([docs](https://docs.swmansion.com/react-native-reanimated/docs/api/LayoutAnimations/exitAnimations))| Animation when item is removed from list.|
|`itemLayoutAnimation`| Reanimated `AnimationBuilder` ([docs](https://docs.swmansion.com/react-native-reanimated/docs/api/LayoutAnimations/layoutTransitions))| Animation when list items change position (`enableLayoutAnimationExperimental` prop must be `true`).|
|`enableLayoutAnimationExperimental`| `boolean`| Flag to turn on experimental support for `itemLayoutAnimation`.|

## Cell Decorators

Cell Decorators are an easy way to add common hover animations. For example, wrapping `renderItem` in the `<ScaleDecorator>` component will automatically scale up the active item while hovering (see example below).

`ScaleDecorator`, `ShadowDecorator`, and `OpacityDecorator` are currently exported. Developers may create their own custom decorators using the animated values provided by the `useOnCellActiveAnimation` hook.

## Nesting DraggableFlatLists

It's possible to render multiple `DraggableFlatList` components within a single scrollable parent by wrapping one or more `NestableDraggableFlatList` components within an outer `NestableScrollContainer` component.

`NestableScrollContainer` extends the `ScrollView` from `react-native-gesture-handler`, and `NestableDraggableFlatList` extends `DraggableFlatList`, so all available props may be passed into both of them.

> Note: When using NestableDraggableFlatLists, all React Native warnings about nested list performance will be disabled.

```tsx
import { NestableScrollContainer, NestableDraggableFlatList } from "react-native-draggable-flatlist"

...

const [data1, setData1] = useState(initialData1);
  const [data2, setData2] = useState(initialData2);
  const [data3, setData3] = useState(initialData3);

return (
    <NestableScrollContainer>
      <Header text='List 1' />
      <NestableDraggableFlatList
        data={data1}
        renderItem={renderItem}
        keyExtractor={keyExtractor}
        onDragEnd={({ data }) => setData1(data)}
      />
      <Header text='List 2' />
      <NestableDraggableFlatList
        data={data2}
        renderItem={renderItem}
        keyExtractor={keyExtractor}
        onDragEnd={({ data }) => setData2(data)}
      />
      <Header text='List 3' />
      <NestableDraggableFlatList
        data={data3}
        renderItem={renderItem}
        keyExtractor={keyExtractor}
        onDragEnd={({ data }) => setData3(data)}
      />
    </NestableScrollContainer>
  )
```

type Item = {
  key: string;
  label: string;
  height: number;
  width: number;
  backgroundColor: string;
};

const initialData: Item[] = [...Array(NUM_ITEMS)].map((d, index) => {
  const backgroundColor = getColor(index);
  return {
    key: `item-${index}`,
    label: String(index) + "",
    height: 100,
    width: 60 + Math.random() * 40,
    backgroundColor,
  };
});

export default function App() {
  const [data, setData] = useState(initialData);

const renderItem = ({ item, drag, isActive }: RenderItemParams<Item>) => {
    return (
      <ScaleDecorator>
        <TouchableOpacity
          onLongPress={drag}

            styles.rowItem,

          ]}
        >
          <Text style={styles.text}>{item.label}</Text>
        </TouchableOpacity>
      </ScaleDecorator>
    );

return (
    <DraggableFlatList
      data={data}
      onDragEnd={({ data }) => setData(data)}
      keyExtractor={(item) => item.key}
      renderItem={renderItem}
    />

}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  rowItem: {
    height: 100,
    width: 100,
    alignItems: "center",
    justifyContent: "center",
  },
  text: {
    color: "white",
    fontSize: 24,
    fontWeight: "bold",
    textAlign: "center",
