Or if you're cool with the command line, install with Bower.

bower install draggabilly

Usage

var elem = document.querySelector('#draggable');
var draggie = new Draggabilly( elem, {
  // options...
});

When dragging, Draggabillly will add the class .is-dragging to the element.

Options

containment

Type: Element, Selector String, or Boolean

containment: '#container'

Contains movement to the bounds of the element. If true, the container will be the parent element.

handle

Type: Selector String

handle: '.handle'

Specifies on what element the drag interaction starts.

handle is useful for when you want not all inner elements to be used for dragging, like inputs and forms. See back handle example on CodePen.

Events

Draggabilly is an Event Emitter. You can bind event listeners to events.

var draggie = new Draggabilly( elem );

function onDragMove( instance, event, pointer ) {
  console.log( 'dragMove on ' + event.type +
    pointer.pageX + ', ' + pointer.pageY +
    ' position at ' + instance.position.x + ', ' + instance.position.y );
}
// bind event listener
draggie.on( 'dragMove', onDragMove );
// un-bind event listener
draggie.off( 'dragMove', onDragMove );
// return true to trigger an event listener just once
draggie.on( 'dragMove', function() {
  console.log('Draggabilly did move, just once');
  return true;
});
