Active Admin Sortable

This gem extends ActiveAdmin so that your index page's table rows can be sortable via a drag-and-drop interface.

Prerequisites

This extension assumes that you're using one of the following on any model you want to be sortable.

ActiveRecord

acts_as_list

class Page < ActiveRecord::Base
  acts_as_list
end

Mongoid

mongoid_orderable

class Page < ActiveRecord::Base
  include Mongoid::Orderable
  orderable
end

Usage

Add it to your Gemfile

gem 'activeadmin-sortable'

Include the JavaScript in active_admin.js

//= require activeadmin-sortable

Include the Stylesheet in active_admin.css

//= require activeadmin-sortable

Configure your ActiveAdmin Resource

ActiveAdmin.register Page do
  config.sort_order = 'position_asc' # assumes you are using 'position' for your acts_as_list column
  config.paginate   = false # optional; drag-and-drop across pages is not supported

  sortable # creates the controller action which handles the sorting

  index do
    sortable_handle_column # inserts a drag handle
    # other columns...
  end
end
