Question

Is it at all easy to use jQuery.sortable on ng-repeat elements in AngularJS?

---

It would be awesome if re-ordering the items automatically propagated that ordering back into the source array. I’m afraid the two systems would fight though. Is there a better way to do this?

Angular UI has a sortable directive,Click Here for Demo

Code located at ui-sortable, usage:

<ul ui-sortable ng-model="items" ui-sortable-update="sorted">
  <li ng-repeat="item in items track by $index" id="{{$index}}">{{ item }}</li>
</ul>

$scope.sorted = (event, ui) => { console.log(ui.item[0].getAttribute('id')) }
