Feature request : Ordering of songs in a playlist

[ebadi]

Feature requests

• Songs are added to the end of a playlist which is not usually desirable. No shuffle feature is also available.
• It is easier to choose the search engine when we enter a term in the search box rather than set it in the "setting menu".

What is your Kaku version ?

1.7.0

What is your OS with version number ?

Ubuntu 14.04

1. shuffle mode is done and will be there in 1.8.0
2. still have no time to work on drag & drop to re-position your tracks, need to work on it later.
3. i like your suggestion for changing platform, can give it a try.

Hello
I'm newbie in programming, so I am asking for your understanding.
About 2 pts. If there is ordering of the playlist, I decided to add a few lines of code to temporarily solve this problem. What I propose is only the equivalent of the drag and drop feature. I added two functions in the contextual playlist menu: "Move track up" and "Move track down". Like I said before, it's just a temporary substitute for the drag and drop function. Besides, I need some help because the function I added did not work well when I try to move PlayingTrack. Maybe someone could point out my mistake.
Moving tracks function

What is your Kaku version ?

1.9.0
What is your OS with version number ?

openSUSE Leap 42.3

@japko36 the ultimate solution is still to provide drag & drop solution here, can you lint your codes first to make sure it fits the current coding style? it's hard to understand your code by reading it :/

[japko36]

I have a request, when you find a moment, could you explain something about linting, because here there is nothing written on how to do it? I mistakenly thought that compilation was enough :( sorry

[EragonJ]

well, it should be the same coding style or something to make sure written codes are in the same format. Right now, at least make the indentation the same as the other parts, right now your codes are not aligned and are not in the same order which is hard for me to check. Hope this clarified your thought.

BTW, the reason why the wiki for that part is not ready yet is that it should be like an automatic process that will help us do this part when committing codes. I just don't have time to do that.

[japko36]

I did what I could with the style of the code. I hope that it was more or less about it and you read it a bit better.

Hello again.
What do you think about the React DnD library. I just made some changes in three files to build a drag and drop function for sorting songs in a playlist. I have removed previously introduced changes in the context menu. The three files I mentioned were:
Kaku-1.9.0 / src / views / modules / Player.js,
Kaku-1.9.0 / src / views / components / shared / tracks.js,
Kaku-1.9.0 / src / views / components / shared / track / track.js.
You also need to create a file:
  Kaku-1.9.0 / src / views / components / shared / track / ItemTypes.js .
And this drag and drop function works.

@japko36 interesting, any code for that ?

[japko36]

As I mentioned above, I made changes in these three files to implement the drag and drop feature with React DnD (licensed as MIT):
Player.js
tracks.js
track.js
and created file:
ItemTypes.js
Of course, my solution is not perfect and it probably requires corrections, but it works.
