The general Reactor guide and FRToolbox Reference document outline the suite of functionality that Reactor can provide. However, they don’t really achieve anything that can’t already be done in FileMaker.

...

The Sortable interaction has a ‘Connect Lists’ example that allows us to reorder items within a grid. You can move them up or down vertically, or across horizontally.

Ok, so let’s put together what we want to build. We’re planning three space exhibitions, in which we’re visiting various planets (presumably in a futuristic super-fast spaceship). The trips will be represented horizontally, and we’ll want to drag a planet into one of these ‘trips’ and even change the order in which we visit the planets.

...

Ok, we have our base UI sorted, let’s start putting some data into it.

Accessing Planet Data

First, replace the contents inside our <body> tags with this:

...

This will open the BlackBox in your default web browser, where you can use the Developers Tools to debug it.

Changing sort order

So now we’ve got our Kanban board pulling in our Planet records and sorting them into the right columns. We can move these Planets around - but these changes are not recorded. The next time you load the web-viewer, your changes will be lost (unless you also change the data back in FileMaker Pro).

...

However, let’s ponder for a moment - let’s say we’re building this for a database hosted on FileMaker Server. We’re using the Kanban board to plan our various exhibitions, and another one of our Space Trip Planners moves Venus into Trip 2. If we want your Kanban board to update in real-time we’ll need to employ polling.

Polling for changes

Now we’re ensuring that our interactions with our BlackBox are persistent, it’s not just for show - it’s actually doing something.

...

 Import it into your Reactor, by clicking ‘Import a new BlackBox’ when creating a new BlackBox. Just be sure to rename the BlackBox and function if they’re the same name as yours - otherwise Moogie will get confused.
