Muuri is a JavaScript layout engine that allows you to build all kinds of layouts and make them responsive, sortable, filterable, draggable and/or animated. Comparing to what's out there Muuri is a combination of [Packery](http://packery.metafizzy.co/), [Masonry](http://masonry.desandro.com/), [Isotope](http://isotope.metafizzy.co/) and [Sortable](https://github.com/RubaXa/Sortable). Wanna see it in action? Check out the [demo](http://haltu.github.io/muuri/) on the website.

Muuri's default "First Fit" bin packing layout algorithm generates layouts similar to [Packery](https://github.com/metafizzy/packery) and [Masonry](http://masonry.desandro.com/). The implementation is heavily based on the "maxrects" approach as described by Jukka Jylänki in his research [A Thousand Ways to Pack the Bin](http://clb.demon.fi/files/RectangleBinPack.pdf). If that's not your cup of tea you can always provide your own layout algorithm to position the items as you wish.

Muuri uses [Web Animations](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Animations_API) for animations and [Hammer.js](http://hammerjs.github.io/) to handle dragging. And if you're wondering about the name of the library "muuri" is Finnish meaning a wall.

**Features**

* Fully customizable layout
* Drag & drop (even between grids)
* Nested grids
* Fast animations
* Filtering
* Sorting

## Getting started

### 1. Get Muuri

Download:
* [muuri.js](https://unpkg.com/muuri@0.7.1/dist/muuri.js) - for development (not minified, with comments).
* [muuri.min.js](https://unpkg.com/muuri@0.7.1/dist/muuri.min.js) - for production (minified, no comments).

Or link directly:

```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/muuri@0.7.1/dist/muuri.min.js"></script>
```

Or install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```bash
npm install muuri
```

### 2. Get the (optional) dependencies

#### Hammer.js

Muuri uses [Hammer.js](https://github.com/hammerjs/hammer.js) (v2.0.0+) to handle all the drag events. It is an optional dependency and only required if you need Muuri's dragging capabilities. In other words, if you set [`dragEnabled`](#dragenabled-) option to `true` you need Hammer.js.

#### Web Animations Polyfill

Muuri uses [Web Animations](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Animations_API) to handle all the animations by default. If you need to use Muuri on a browser that does not support Web Animations you need to use a [polyfill](https://github.com/web-animations/web-animations-js).

### 3. Add the script tags

Add Muuri on your site and make sure to include the optional dependencies (if needed) before Muuri.

```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/web-animations-js@2.3.1/web-animations.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/hammerjs@2.0.8/hammer.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/muuri@0.7.1/dist/muuri.min.js"></script>
```

### 4. Add the markup

* Every grid must have a container element.
* Grid items must always consist of at least two elements. The outer element is used for positioning the item and the inner element (first direct child) is used for animating the item's visibility (show/hide methods). You can insert any markup you wish inside the inner item element.

```html
<div class="grid">

  <div class="item">
    <div class="item-content">
      <!-- Safe zone, enter your custom markup -->
      This can be anything.
      <!-- Safe zone ends -->
    </div>
  </div>

  <div class="item">
    <div class="item-content">
      <!-- Safe zone, enter your custom markup -->
      <div class="my-custom-content">
        Yippee!
      </div>
      <!-- Safe zone ends -->
    </div>
  </div>

</div>
```

### 5. Add the styles

* The container element must be "positioned" meaning that it's CSS position property must be set to *relative*, *absolute* or *fixed*. Also note that Muuri automatically resizes the container element's width/height depending on the area the items cover and the layout algorithm configuration.
* The item elements must have their CSS position set to *absolute* and their display property set to *block*. Muuri actually enforces the `display:block;` rule and adds it as an inline style to all item elements, just in case.
* The item elements must not have any CSS transitions or animations applied to them, because they might conflict with Muuri's internal animation engine. However, the container element can have transitions applied to it if you want it to animate when it's size changes after the layout operation.
* You can control the gaps between the items by giving some margin to the item elements.
* One last thing: never ever set `overflow: auto;` or `overflow: scroll;` to the container element. Muuri's calculation logic does not account for that and you _will_ see some item jumps when dragging starts. Always use a wrapper element for the container where you set the `auto`/`scroll` overflow values.

```css
.grid {
  position: relative;
}
.item {
  display: block;
  position: absolute;
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  margin: 5px;
  z-index: 1;
  background: #000;
  color: #fff;
}
.item.muuri-item-dragging {
  z-index: 3;
}
.item.muuri-item-releasing {
  z-index: 2;
}
.item.muuri-item-hidden {
  z-index: 0;
}
.item-content {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}
```

### 6. Fire it up

The bare minimum configuration is demonstrated below. You must always provide the container element (or a selector so Muuri can fetch the element for you), everything else is optional.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri('.grid');
```

You can view this little tutorial demo [here](https://codepen.io/niklasramo/pen/wpwNjK). After that you might want to check some [other demos](https://codepen.io/collection/AWopag/) as well.

## API

### Grid constructor

`Muuri` is a constructor function and should be always instantiated with the `new` keyword. For the sake of clarity, we refer to a Muuri instance as *grid* throughout the documentation.

**Syntax**

`Muuri( element, [options] )`

**Parameters**

* **element** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *element* / *string*
  * Default value: `null`.
  * You can provide the element directly or use a selector (string) which uses [querySelector()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/querySelector) internally.
* **options** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *object*
  * Optional. Check out the [detailed options reference](#grid-options).

**Default options**

The default options are stored in `Muuri.defaultOptions` object, which in it's default state contains the following configuration:

```javascript
{

  // Item elements
  items: '*',

  // Default show animation
  showDuration: 300,
  showEasing: 'ease',

  // Default hide animation
  hideDuration: 300,
  hideEasing: 'ease',

  // Item's visible/hidden state styles
  visibleStyles: {
    opacity: '1',
    transform: 'scale(1)'
  },
  hiddenStyles: {
    opacity: '0',
    transform: 'scale(0.5)'
  },

  // Layout
  layout: {
    fillGaps: false,
    horizontal: false,
    alignRight: false,
    alignBottom: false,
    rounding: true
  },
  layoutOnResize: 100,
  layoutOnInit: true,
  layoutDuration: 300,
  layoutEasing: 'ease',

  // Sorting
  sortData: null,

  // Drag & Drop
  dragEnabled: false,
  dragContainer: null,
  dragStartPredicate: {
    distance: 0,
    delay: 0,
    handle: false
  },
  dragAxis: null,
  dragSort: true,
  dragSortInterval: 100,
  dragSortPredicate: {
    threshold: 50,
    action: 'move'
  },
  dragReleaseDuration: 300,
  dragReleaseEasing: 'ease',
  dragHammerSettings: {
    touchAction: 'none'
  },

  // Classnames
  containerClass: 'muuri',
  itemClass: 'muuri-item',
  itemVisibleClass: 'muuri-item-shown',
  itemHiddenClass: 'muuri-item-hidden',
  itemPositioningClass: 'muuri-item-positioning',
  itemDraggingClass: 'muuri-item-dragging',
  itemReleasingClass: 'muuri-item-releasing'

}
```

You can modify the default options easily:

```javascript
Muuri.defaultOptions.showDuration = 400;
Muuri.defaultOptions.dragSortPredicate.action = 'swap';
```

This is how you would use the options:

```javascript
// Minimum configuration.
var gridA = new Muuri('.grid-a');

// Providing some options.
var gridB = new Muuri('.grid-b', {
  items: '.item'
});
```

### items &nbsp;

The initial item elements, which should be children of the container element. All elements that are not children of the container will be appended to the container. You can provide an *array* of elements, a [*node list*](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NodeList) or a selector (string). If you provide a selector Muuri uses it to filter the current child elements of the container element and sets them as initial items. By default all current child elements of the provided container element are used as initial items.

* Default value: `'*'`.
* Accepted types: array (of elements), [node list](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NodeList), string, null.

```javascript
// Use specific items.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  items: [elemA, elemB, elemC]
});

// Use node list.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  items: elem.querySelectorAll('.item')
});

// Use selector.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  items: '.item'
});
```

### showDuration &nbsp;

Show animation duration in milliseconds. Set to `0` to disable show animation.

* Default value: `300`.
* Accepted types: number.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  showDuration: 600
});
```

### showEasing &nbsp;

Show animation easing. Accepts any valid [Animation easing](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AnimationEffectTimingProperties/easing) value.

* Default value: `'ease'`.
* Accepted types: string.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  showEasing: 'cubic-bezier(0.215, 0.61, 0.355, 1)'
});
```

### hideDuration &nbsp;

Hide animation duration in milliseconds. Set to `0` to disable hide animation.

* Default value: `300`.
* Accepted types: number.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  hideDuration: 600
});
```

### hideEasing &nbsp;

Hide animation easing. Accepts any valid [Animation easing](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AnimationEffectTimingProperties/easing) value.

* Default value: `'ease'`.
* Accepted types: string.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  hideEasing: 'cubic-bezier(0.215, 0.61, 0.355, 1)'
});
```

### visibleStyles &nbsp;

The styles that will be applied to all visible items. These styles are also used for the show/hide animations which means that you have to have the same style properties in visibleStyles and hiddenStyles options. Be sure to define all style properties camel cased.

* Default value: `{opacity: 1, transform: 'scale(1)'}`.
* Accepted types: object.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  visibleStyles: {
    opacity: 1,
    transform: 'rotate(45deg)'
  },
  hiddenStyles: {
    opacity: 0,
    transform: 'rotate(-45deg)'
  }
});
```

### hiddenStyles &nbsp;

The styles that will be applied to all hidden items. These styles are also used for the show/hide animations which means that you have to have the same style properties in visibleStyles and hiddenStyles options. Be sure to define all style properties camel cased.

* Default value: `{opacity: 0, transform: 'scale(0.5)'}`.
* Accepted types: object.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  visibleStyles: {
    opacity: 1,
    transform: 'rotate(45deg)'
  },
  hiddenStyles: {
    opacity: 0,
    transform: 'rotate(-45deg)'
  }
});
```

### layout &nbsp;

Define how the items will be laid out. Muuri ships with a configurable layout algorithm which is used by default. It's pretty flexible and suitable for most common situations (lists, grids and even bin packed grids). If that does not fit the bill you can always provide your own layout algorithm (it's not as scary as it sounds).

* Default value: `{fillGaps: false, horizontal: false, alignRight: false, alignBottom: false}`.
* Accepted types: function, object.

**Provide an _object_ to configure the default layout algorithm with the following properties**

* **fillGaps** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Default value: `false`.
  * When `true` the algorithm goes through every item in order and places each item to the first available free slot, even if the slot happens to be visually *before* the previous element's slot. Practically this means that the items might not end up visually in order, but there will be less gaps in the grid. By default this option is `false` which basically means that the following condition will be always true when calculating the layout (assuming `alignRight` and `alignBottom` are `false`): `nextItem.top > prevItem.top || (nextItem.top === prevItem.top && nextItem.left > prevItem.left)`. This also means that the items will be visually in order.
* **horizontal** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Default value: `false`.
  *  When `true` the grid works in landscape mode (grid expands to the right). Use for horizontally scrolling sites. When `false` the grid works in "portrait" mode and expands downwards.
* **alignRight** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Default value: `false`.
  * When `true` the items are aligned from right to left.
* **alignBottom** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Default value: `false`.
  * When `true` the items are aligned from the bottom up.
* **rounding** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Default value: `true`.
  * When `true` the dimensions of the items will be automatically rounded for the layout calculations using `Math.round()`. Set to `false` to use accurate dimensions. In practice you would want disable this if you are using relative dimension values for items (%, em, rem, etc.). If you have defined item dimensions with pixel values (px) it is recommended that you leave this on.

```javascript
// Customize the default layout algorithm.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layout: {
    fillGaps: true,
    horizontal: true,
    alignRight: true,
    alignBottom: true,
    rounding: false
  }
});
```

**Provide a _function_ to use a custom layout algorithm**

When you provide a custom layout function Muuri calls it whenever calculation of layout is necessary. Before calling the layout function Muuri always calculates the current width and height of the grid's container element and also creates an array of all the items that are part of the layout currently (all _active_ items).

* `customLayout( items, gridWidth, gridHeight )`
  * **items** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array*
    * Array of `Muuri.Item` instances.
  * **gridWidth** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
    * Current width of the grid's container element.
  * **gridHeight** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
    * Current height of the grid's container element.

The layout function's job is using this data, which is provided to the layout function as arguments (as detailed above), and calculating position for each item in the array.

The layout function should _always_ return an object with following properties:

* **slots** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array*
  * Array of the item positions (numbers). E.g. if the items were `[a, b]` this should be `[aLeft, aTop, bLeft, bTop]`. You have to calculate the `left` and `top` position for each item in the provided _items_ array in the same order the items are provided.
* **width** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * The width of the grid.
* **height** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * The height of the grid.
* **setWidth** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Should Muuri set the provided _width_ as the grid element's width?
* **setHeight** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Should Muuri set the provided _height_ as the grid element's height?

```javascript
// Build your own layout algorithm.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layout: function (items, gridWidth, gridHeight) {
    // The layout data object. Muuri will read this data and position the items
    // based on it.
    var layout = {
      // The layout's item slots (left/top coordinates).
      slots: [],
      // The layout's total width.
      width: 0,
      // The layout's total height.
      height: 0,
      // Should Muuri set the grid's width after layout?
      setWidth: true,
      // Should Muuri set the grid's height after layout?
      setHeight: true
    };

    // Calculate the slots.
    var item;
    var m;
    var x = 0;
    var y = 0;
    var w = 0;
    var h = 0;
    for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
      item = items[i];
      x += w;
      y += h;
      m = item.getMargin();
      w = item.getWidth() + m.left + m.right;
      h = item.getHeight() + m.top + m.bottom;
      layout.slots.push(x, y);
    }

    // Calculate the layout's total width and height. 
    layout.width = x + w;
    layout.height = y + h;

    return layout;
  }
});
```

### layoutOnResize &nbsp;

Should Muuri automatically trigger `layout` method on window resize? Set to `false` to disable. When a number or `true` is provided Muuri will automatically lay out the items every time window is resized. The provided number (`true` is transformed to `0`) equals to the amount of time (in milliseconds) that is waited before items are laid out after each window resize event.

* Default value: `100`.
* Accepted types: boolean, number.

```javascript
// No layout on resize.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layoutOnResize: false
});
```

```javascript
// Layout on resize (instantly).
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layoutOnResize: true
});
```

```javascript
// Layout on resize (with 200ms debounce).
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layoutOnResize: 200
});
```

### layoutOnInit &nbsp;

Should Muuri trigger `layout` method automatically on init?

* Default value: `true`.
* Accepted types: boolean.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layoutOnInit: false
});
```

### layoutDuration &nbsp;

The duration for item's layout animation in milliseconds. Set to `0` to disable.

* Default value: `300`.
* Accepted types: number.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layoutDuration: 600
});
```

### layoutEasing &nbsp;

The easing for item's layout animation. Accepts any valid [Animation easing](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AnimationEffectTimingProperties/easing) value.

* Default value: `'ease'`.
* Accepted types: string.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  layoutEasing: 'cubic-bezier(0.215, 0.61, 0.355, 1)'
});
```

### sortData &nbsp;

The sort data getter functions. Provide an object where the key is the name of the sortable attribute and the function returns a value (from the item) by which the items can be sorted.

* Default value: `null`.
* Accepted types: object, null.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  sortData: {
    foo: function (item, element) {
      return parseFloat(element.getAttribute('data-foo'));
    },
    bar: function (item, element) {
      return element.getAttribute('data-bar').toUpperCase();
    }
  }
});
// Refresh sort data whenever an item's data-foo or data-bar changes
grid.refreshSortData();
// Sort the grid by foo and bar.
grid.sort('foo bar');
```

### dragEnabled &nbsp;

Should items be draggable?

* Default value: `false`.
* Accepted types: boolean.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragEnabled: true
});
```

### dragContainer &nbsp;

The element the dragged item should be appended to for the duration of the drag. If set to `null` (which is also the default value) the grid's container element will be used.

* Default value: `null`.
* Accepted types: element, null.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragContainer: document.body
});
```

### dragStartPredicate &nbsp;

A function that determines when the item should start to move when the item is being dragged. By default uses the built-in predicate which has some configurable options.

* Default value: `{distance: 0, delay: 0, handle: false}`.
* Accepted types: function, object.

If an object is provided the default sort predicate handler will be used. You can define the following properties:

* **distance** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * Default value: `0`.
  * How many pixels must be dragged before the dragging starts.
* **delay** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * Default value: `0`.
  * How long (in milliseconds) the user must drag before the dragging starts.
* **handle** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *string / boolean*
  * Default value: `false`.
  * The selector(s) which much match the event target element for the dragging to start. Note that if the event target element is a descendant of the handle element(s) it is also considered a match, which should be pretty useful in most scenarios.

If you provide a function you can totally customize the drag start logic. When the user starts to drag an item this predicate function will be called until you return `true` or `false`. If you return `true` the item will begin to move whenever the item is dragged. If you return `false` the item will not be moved at all. Note that after you have returned `true` or `false` this function will not be called until the item is released and dragged again.

The predicate function receives two arguments:

* **item** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *Muuri.Item*
  * The item that's being dragged.
* **event** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *object*
  * The drag event (Hammer.js event).

```javascript
// Configure the default predicate
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragStartPredicate: {
    distance: 10,
    delay: 100,
    handle: '.foo, .bar'
  }
});
```

```javascript
// Provide your own predicate
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragStartPredicate: function (item, e) {
    // Start moving the item after the item has been dragged for one second.
    if (e.deltaTime > 1000) {
      return true;
    }
  }
});
```

```javascript
// Pro tip: provide your own predicate and fall back to the default predicate.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragStartPredicate: function (item, e) {
    // If this is final event in the drag process, let's prepare the predicate
    // for the next round (do some resetting/teardown). The default predicate
    // always needs to be called during the final event if there's a chance it
    // has been triggered during the drag process because it does some necessary
    // state resetting.
    if (e.isFinal) {
      Muuri.ItemDrag.defaultStartPredicate(item, e);
      return;
    }

    // Prevent first item from being dragged. 
    if (grid.getItems().indexOf(item) === 0) {
      return false;
    }

    // For other items use the default drag start predicate.
    return Muuri.ItemDrag.defaultStartPredicate(item, e);
  }
});
```

### dragAxis &nbsp;

Force items to be moved only vertically or horizontally when dragged. Set to `'x'` for horizontal movement and to `'y'` for vertical movement. By default items can be dragged both vertically and horizontally.

* Default value: `null`.
* Accepted types: string.
* Allowed values: `'x'`, `'y'`.

```javascript
// Move items only horizontally when dragged.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragAxis: 'x'
});
```

```javascript
// Move items only vertically when dragged.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragAxis: 'y'
});
```

### dragSort &nbsp;

Should the items be sorted during drag? A simple boolean will do just fine here.

Alternatively you can do some advanced stuff and control within which grids a specific item can be sorted and dragged into. To do that you need to provide a function which receives the dragged item as its first argument and should return an array of grid instances. An important thing to note here is that you need to return *all* the grid instances you want the dragged item to sort within, even the current grid instance. If you return an empty array the dragged item will not cause sorting at all.

* Default value: `true`.
* Accepted types: boolean, function.

```javascript
// Disable drag sorting.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragSort: false
});
```

```javascript
// Multigrid drag sorting.
var gridA = new Muuri(elemA, {dragSort: getAllGrids});
var gridB = new Muuri(elemB, {dragSort: getAllGrids});
var gridC = new Muuri(elemC, {dragSort: getAllGrids});

function getAllGrids(item) {
  return [gridA, gridB, gridC];
}
```

### dragSortInterval &nbsp;

Defines the amount of time the dragged item must be still before `dragSortPredicate` function is called. The default `dragSortPredicate` is pretty heavy function which means that you might see some janky animations and/or an unresponsive UI if you set this value too low (`0` is not recommended).

* Default value: `100`.
* Accepted types: number.

```javascript
// Sort on every drag move.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragSortInterval: 0
});
```

```javascript
// Sort with a decent buffer.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragSortInterval: 150
});
```

### dragSortPredicate &nbsp;

Defines the logic for the sort procedure during dragging an item.

* Default value: `{action: 'move', threshold: 50}`.
* Accepted types: function, object.

If an object is provided the default sort predicate handler will be used. You can define the following properties:
* **action** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *string*
  * Default value: `'move'`.
  * Allowed values: `'move'`, `'swap'`.
  * Should the dragged item be *moved* to the new position or should it *swap* places with the item it overlaps?
* **threshold** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * Default value: `50`.
  * Allowed values: `1` - `100`.
  * How many percent the intersection area between the dragged item and the compared item should be from the maximum potential intersection area between the items before sorting is triggered.

Alternatively you can provide your own callback function where you can define your own custom sort logic. The callback function receives two arguments:

* **item** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *Muuri.Item*
  * The item that's being dragged.
* **event** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *object*
  * The drag event (Hammer.js event).

The callback should return a *falsy* value if sorting should not occur. If, however, sorting should occur the callback should return an object containing the following properties:

* **index** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * The index where the item should be moved to.
* **grid** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *Muuri*
  * The grid where the item should be moved to.
  * Defaults to the item's current grid.
  * Optional.
* **action** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *string*
  * The movement method.
  * Default value: `'move'`.
  * Allowed values: `'move'` or `'swap'`.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Customize the default predicate.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragSortPredicate: {
    threshold: 90,
    action: 'swap'
  }
});
```

```javascript
// Provide your own predicate.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragSortPredicate: function (item, e) {
    if (e.deltaTime < 1000) return false;
    return {
      index: Math.round(e.deltaTime / 1000) % 2 === 0 ? -1 : 0,
      action: 'swap'
    };
  }
});
```

```javascript
// Pro tip: use the default predicate as fallback in your custom predicate.
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragSortPredicate: function (item, e) {
    if (item.classList.contains('no-sort')) return false;
    return Muuri.ItemDrag.defaultSortPredicate(item, {
      action: 'swap',
      threshold: 75
    });
  }
});
```

### dragReleaseDuration &nbsp;

The duration for item's drag release animation. Set to `0` to disable.

* Default value: `300`.
* Accepted types: number.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragReleaseDuration: 600
});
```

### dragReleaseEasing &nbsp;

The easing for item's drag release animation. Accepts any valid [Animation easing](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AnimationEffectTimingProperties/easing) value.

* Default value: `'ease'`.
* Accepted types: string.

```javascript
var grid = new Muuri(elem, {
  dragReleaseEasing: 'ease-out'
});
```

### containerClass &nbsp;

### grid.getElement()

Get the instance element.

**Returns** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *element*

```javascript
var elem = grid.getElement();
```

### grid.getItems( [targets] )

Get all items in the grid. Optionally you can provide specific targets (indices or elements).

**Parameters**

* **targets** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / element / Muuri.Item / number*
  * An array of item instances/elements/indices.
  * Optional.

**Returns** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array*

Returns the queried items.

```javascript
// Get all items, both active and inactive.
var allItems = grid.getItems();

// Get all active items.
var activeItems = grid.getItems().filter(function (item) {
  return item.isActive();
});

// Get all positioning items.
var positioningItems = grid.getItems().filter(function (item) {
  return item.isPositioning();
});

// Get the first item.
var firstItem = grid.getItems(0)[0];

// Get specific items by their elements.
var items = grid.getItems([elemA, elemB]);
```

### grid.refreshItems( [items] )

Refresh the cached dimensions of the grid's items. When called without any arguments all active items are refreshed. Optionally you can provide specific the items which you want to refresh as the first argument.

**Parameters**

* **items** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / element / Muuri.Item / number / string*
  * To target specific items provide an array of item instances/elements/indices. By default all active items are targeted.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Refresh dimensions of all active item elements.
grid.refreshItems();

// Refresh dimensions of specific item elements.
grid.refreshItems([0, someElem, someItem]);
```

### grid.refreshSortData( [items] )

Refresh the sort data of the instance's items.

**Parameters**

* **items** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / element / Muuri.Item / number*
  * To target specific items provide an array of item instances/elements/indices. By default all items are targeted.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Refresh the sort data for every item.
grid.refreshSortData();

// Refresh the sort data for specific items.
grid.refreshSortData([0, someElem, someItem]);
```

### grid.synchronize()

Synchronize the item elements to match the order of the items in the DOM. This comes handy if you need to keep the DOM structure matched with the order of the items. Note that if an item's element is not currently a child of the container element (if it is dragged for example) it is ignored and left untouched.

```javascript
// Let's say we have to move the first item in the grid as the last.
grid.move(0, -1);

// Now the DOM order of the items is not in sync anymore with the
// order of the items. We can sync the DOM with synchronize method.
grid.synchronize();
```

### grid.layout( [instant], [callback] )

Calculate item positions and move items to their calculated positions, unless they are already positioned correctly. The grid's height/width (depends on the layout algorithm) is also adjusted according to the position of the items.

**Parameters**

* **instant** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Should the items be positioned instantly without any possible animation?
  * Default value: `false`.
  * Optional.
* **callback** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *function*
  * A callback function that is called after the items have positioned. Receives one argument: an array of all the items that were successfully positioned without interruptions.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Layout items.
grid.layout();

// Layout items instantly (without animations).
grid.layout(true);

// Layout all items and define a callback that will be called
// after all items have been animated to their positions.
grid.layout(function (items) {
  console.log('layout done!');
});
```

### grid.add( elements, [options] )

Add new items by providing the elements you wish to add to the instance and optionally provide the index where you want the items to be inserted into. All elements that are not already children of the container element will be automatically appended to the container element. If an element has it's CSS display property set to none it will be marked as *inactive* during the initiation process. As long as the item is *inactive* it will not be part of the layout, but it will retain it's index. You can activate items at any point with `grid.show()` method. This method will automatically call `grid.layout()` if one or more of the added elements are visible. If only hidden items are added no layout will be called. All the new visible items are positioned without animation during their first layout.

**Parameters**

* **elements** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / element*
  * An array of DOM elements.
* **options.index** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *number*
  * The index where you want the items to be inserted in. A value of `-1` will insert the items to the end of the list while `0` will insert the items to the beginning. Note that the DOM elements are always just appended to the instance container regardless of the index value. You can use the `grid.synchronize()` method to arrange the DOM elements to the same order as the items.
  * Default value: `-1`.
  * Optional.
* **options.layout** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean / function / string*
  * By default `grid.layout()` is called at the end of this method. With this argument you can control the layout call. You can disable the layout completely with `false`, or provide a callback function for the layout method, or provide the string `'instant'` to make the layout happen instantly without any animations.
  * Default value: `true`.
  * Optional.

**Returns** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array*

Returns the added items.

```javascript
// Add two new items to the end.
grid.add([elemA, elemB]);

// Add two new items to the beginning.
grid.add([elemA, elemB], {index: 0});

// Skip the automatic layout.
grid.add([elemA, elemB], {layout: false});
```

### grid.remove( items, [options] )

Remove items from the instance.

**Parameters**

* **items** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / element / Muuri.Item / number*
  * An array of item instances/elements/indices.
* **options.removeElements** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Should the associated DOM element be removed from the DOM?
  * Default value: `false`.
  * Optional.
* **options.layout** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean / function / string*
  * By default `grid.layout()` is called at the end of this method. With this argument you can control the layout call. You can disable the layout completely with `false`, or provide a callback function for the layout method, or provide the string `'instant'` to make the layout happen instantly without any animations.
  * Default value: `true`.
  * Optional.

**Returns** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array*

Returns the destroyed items.

```javascript
// Remove the first item, but keep the element in the DOM.
grid.remove(0);

// Remove items and the associated elements.
grid.remove([elemA, elemB], {removeElements: true});

// Skip the layout.
grid.remove([elemA, elemB], {layout: false});
```


### grid.show( items, [options] )

Show the targeted items.

**Parameters**

* **items** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / element / Muuri.Item / number*

  * A callback function that is called after the items are shown.
  * Optional.
* **options.layout** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean / function / string*
  * By default `grid.layout()` is called at the end of this method. With this argument you can control the layout call. You can disable the layout completely with `false`, or provide a callback function for the layout method, or provide the string `'instant'` to make the layout happen instantly without any animations.
  * Default value: `true`.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Show items with animation (if any).
grid.show([elemA, elemB]);

// Show items instantly without animations.
grid.show([elemA, elemB], {instant: true});

grid.hide([elemA, elemB]);

// Hide items instantly without animations.
grid.hide([elemA, elemB], {instant: true});

// Hide items and call the callback function after
// all items are hidden.
grid.hide([elemA, elemB], {onFinish: function (items) {
  console.log('items hidden!');
}});
```

### grid.filter( predicate, [options] )

Filter items. Expects at least one argument, a predicate, which should be either a function or a string. The predicate callback is executed for every item in the instance. If the return value of the predicate is truthy the item in question will be shown and otherwise hidden. The predicate callback receives the item instance as it's argument. If the predicate is a string it is considered to be a selector and it is checked against every item element in the instance with the native element.matches() method. All the matching items will be shown and others hidden.

**Parameters**

* **predicate** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *function / string*
  * A predicate callback or a selector.
* **options.instant** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * Should the items be shown/hidden instantly without any possible animation?

  * Default value: `true`.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Show all items that have the attribute "data-foo".
grid.filter(function (item) {
  return item.getElement().hasAttribute('data-foo');
});

// Or simply just...
grid.filter('[data-foo]');

// Show all items that have a class foo.
grid.filter('.foo');
```

### grid.sort( comparer, [options] )

Sort items. There are three ways to sort the items. The first is simply by providing a function as the comparer which works almost identically to [native array sort](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/sort). The only difference is that the sort is always stable. Alternatively you can sort by the sort data you have provided in the instance's options. Just provide the sort data key(s) as a string (separated by space) and the items will be sorted based on the provided sort data keys. Lastly you have the opportunity to provide a presorted array of items which will be used to sync the internal items array in the same order.

**Parameters**

* **comparer** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *array / function / string*
  * Provide a comparer function, sort data keys as a string (separated with space) or a presorted array of items. It is recommended to use the sort data feature, because it allows you to cache the sort data and make the sorting faster.
* **options.descending** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean*
  * By default the items are sorted in ascending order. If you want to sort them in descending order set this to `true`.
  * Default value: `false`.
  * Optional.
* **options.layout** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean / function / string*
  * By default `grid.layout()` is called at the end of this method. With this argument you can control the layout call. You can disable the layout completely with `false`, or provide a callback function for the layout method, or provide the string `'instant'` to make the layout happen instantly without any animations.
  * Default value: `true`.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Sort items by data-id attribute value (ascending).
grid.sort(function (itemA, itemB) {
  var aId = parseInt(itemA.getElement().getAttribute('data-id'));
  var bId = parseInt(itemB.getElement().getAttribute('data-id'));
  return aId - bId;
});

// Sort items with a presorted array of items.
grid.sort(presortedItems);

// Sort items using the sort data keys (ascending).
grid.sort('foo bar');

// Sort items using the sort data keys (descending).
grid.sort('foo bar', {descending: true});

// Sort items using the sort data keys. Sort some keys
// ascending and some keys descending.
grid.sort('foo bar:desc');
```

### grid.move( item, position, [options] )

* **options.action** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *string*
  * Accepts the following values:
    * `'move'`: moves item in place of another item.
    * `'swap'`: swaps position of items.
  * Default value: `'move'`.
  * Optional.
* **options.layout** &nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; *boolean / function / string*
  * By default `grid.layout()` is called at the end of this method. With this argument you can control the layout call. You can disable the layout completely with `false`, or provide a callback function for the layout method, or provide the string `'instant'` to make the layout happen instantly without any animations.
  * Default value: `true`.
  * Optional.

```javascript
// Move elemA to the index of elemB.
grid.move(elemA, elemB);

// Move the first item in the grid as the last.
grid.move(0, -1);

// Swap positions of elemA and elemB.
grid.move(elemA, elemB, {action: 'swap'});

// Swap positions of the first and the last item.
grid.move(0, -1, {action: 'swap'});
```

### grid.send( item, grid, position, [options] )
