ember-packery

This ember-cli addon imports the Packery library and allows you to quickly and easily build bin-packed grid views.

Installation

ember install:addon ember-packery

That's it! The Packery library will automatically be imported in your app, and the grid-packery component will be available to all of your templates.

grid-packery

The grid-packery component accepts all of the options that Packery exposes. The naming is the same, and any option not specified will use the Packery default.

For example, if we wanted to a basic Packery view, we'd included the following in our template.

{{#grid-packery}}
  <div class="item">Item 1</div>
  <div class="item">Item 2</div>
  <div class="item">Item 3</div>
{{/grid-packery}}

If we wanted to redefine the item class for grid-packery, we'd write the following:

{{#grid-packery itemSelector=".piece"}}
  <div class="piece">Item 1</div>
  <div class="piece">Item 2</div>
  <div class="piece">Item 3</div>
{{/grid-packery}}

For a full list of options that are exposed, please see the Packery options.

A small caveat: while Ember allows us to pass most options to components as primitives, it doesn't handle null well. If you'd like to use null (as containerStyle, for example), you'll have to wrap it in quotes ('null').

Adding and Removing Items from a Masonry Layout

We can specify an items attribute that ember-packery will observe. When the property changes, Packery will re-initalize itself and update its layout.

For example, if our controller exposes the enumerable property colors:

{{#grid-packery items=colors}}
  {{#each colors}}
  <div class="item">
    Name: {{name}}
  </div>
  {{/each}}
{{/grid-packery}}

Every time the length of the colors property is changed, Packery will account for it and generate a new layout.
