select2-sortable

A little plugin that will make select2 multiple select become sortable out of the box.

Usage:

// init select2 sortable
$(select2multiselect).select2Sortable();

// destroy select2 sortable
$(select2multiselect).select2Sortable('destroy');

// manually trigger the sorting
$(select2multiselect).select2SortableOrder();

// custom options
$(select2multiselect).select2Sortable({
	bindOrder: 'formSubmit' // or `sortableStop`,
	sortableOptions: {
		// please refer to jQuery UI sortable API (http://api.jqueryui.com/sortable/)
	}
});

//initialize with previously sorted options
//By passing the previously sorted value taken from select2, in the form
//of an array of the previously selected options' values, the select2
//options will be ordered with the selected options sorted as they were
//before.

//Example:
previouslySortedOptions = ["3", "1", "2"];

//Initialize with ARRAY of previously sorted options.
$(select2multiselect).select2Sortable(previouslySortedOptions);

//with other config options, specify "data:previouslySortedOptions" as previously selected info
$(select2multiselect).select2Sortable({
	bindOrder: 'formSubmit' // or `sortableStop`,
	sortableOptions: {
		// please refer to jQuery UI sortable API (http://api.jqueryui.com/sortable/)
	},
	select2Options:{ //give select2 config options as well.
		// please refer to select2 documentation (https://select2.github.io/)
	},
	data:previouslySortedOptions
});

//perform sorting after initialization
$(select2multiselect).select2SortableOrder(previouslySortedOptions );
