SelectElement ​

<SelectElement :native="true" ... />
<SelectElement :native="false" ... />

Whether the native HTML select input should be used. Automatically becomes false if search is true.

Defines the option list.

Array ​

Can be a plain array where both the option value and label will be the same:

<SelectElement :native="false" :items="['Vue.js', 'React', 'AngularJS']" ... />

Object ​

Can be an plain object where the object key is the value and the value is the label of the option:

<SelectElement :native="false" :items="{
  vuejs: 'Vue.js',
  react: 'React',
  angularjs: 'AngularJS'
}" ... />

When options are defined as objects they can contain a disabled property that will disable the option:

<SelectElement :native="false" :items="[
  { value: 'vuejs', label: 'Vue.js' },
  { value: 'react', label: 'React', disabled: true },
  { value: 'angularjs', label: 'AngularJS', disabled: true },
]" ... />

Array of Objects ​

Can be an array of objects. Each item should be an object that contains at least a valueProp and a labelProp ('value' and 'label' by default):

<SelectElement :native="false" :items="[
  { value: 'vuejs', label: 'Vue.js' },
  { value: 'react', label: 'React' },
  { value: 'angularjs', label: 'AngularJS' },
]" ... />

Async ​

Can be an async function or a function that returns a Promise. The functions receives query as its first param, which is the search query when search is enabled and delay is > -1. The resolved value should have one of the formats from above.

<SelectElement :native="false" :items="async function(query, input){
  let el$ = input.$parent.el$ // the element's component
  let other_element = el$.form$.el$('other_element') // an other element

  return await (axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items.json')).data
}" ... />

If native: false is used the first param the callback receives is the search query (if search is enabled) while the second is the input. The SelectElement component instance can be accessed via input.$parent.el$.

<SelectElement :native="true" :items="async function(el$){
  return await (axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items.json')).data
}" ... />

If native: true is used the only param the callback will receive is the el$ which is the SelectElement component instance.

String (endpoint) ​

Can be a string that is an endpoint where the options should be loaded from. The endpoint should return any of the formats from above. If search and delay is > -1 the endpoint will receive a query param which contains the search query.

<SelectElement :native="false" items="https://vueform.com/json/async-items.json" ... />

Can be a string that contains variables in {elementPath|'default'} format. This way we can achieve chained selects or dependent select options..

<SelectElement name="category" items="https://api.vueform.com/categories" ... />
<SelectElement name="subcategory" items="https://api.vueform.com/category/{category|'0'}" ... />

The items that depend on an other element's value, will be refetched when the other element's value change. We can also reference complex elements (eg. lists or objects), in which case their value will be transformed to JSON and added to the url in an encoded format. If a value is already selected which is not among the newly fetched items, the value will be removed.

Hint: option template can be overridden with #option slot and selected option label with #single-label.

<SelectElement label-prop="name" ... />

The name of the object property that contains the option label when items is an array of objects.

<SelectElement value-prop="id" ... />

The name of the object property that contains the option value when items is an array of objects.

<SelectElement data-key="options" ... />

The name of the property that contains the options when using endpoint items. Can be a path string with dot . syntax, eg: data.options. If not defined the endpoint should return the options directly.

Eg. endpoint response without dataKey:

[
  { label: 'Vue.js', value: 'vuejs' },
  { label: 'React', value: 'react' },
  { label: 'AngularJS', value: 'angularjs' },
]

Eg. endpoint response with dataKey: "options":

{
  options: [
    { label: 'Vue.js', value: 'vuejs' },
    { label: 'React', value: 'react' },
    { label: 'AngularJS', value: 'angularjs' },
  ],
  // ...
}

<SelectElement search-param="search" ... />

The name of the search param sent as a GET param when using endpoint items, search: true and delay > -1.

<SelectElement :search="true" ... />

Enables searching among options. If true non-native select will be used.

If items are provided as a plain array that contains strings, the string values will be searched. When items is an array of objects, the object's trackBy property will be searched.

<SelectElement :track-by="['name', 'email']" ... />

The name of the object properties that contains the text that should be searched when search is true and items is an array of objects. Can also be a simple string.

<SelectElement :strict="true" />
<SelectElement :strict="false" />

Whether the search should respect accents/diacritics.

<SelectElement :create="true" ... />

Whether the user can create new options. This will automatically enable search.

<SelectElement :create="true" :append-new-option="true" ... />
<SelectElement :create="true" :append-new-option="false" ... />

Whether the new option should be appended to the option list when create is enabled.

<SelectElement :create="true" :add-option-on="['enter', 'space', 'tab', ';', ',']" />

Defines on which key a new option should be added when create is true. Possible values:

• enter
• space
• tab
• ;
• ,

<template>
  <Vueform ref="form$">
    <SelectElement name="select" :items="[1,2]" allow-absent />
  </Vueform>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue'

const form$ = ref(null)

onMounted(() => {
  form$.value.update({
    select: 3
  })
})
</script>

Whether to allow values to be set programmatically that are not among the items.

<!-- With `object: false` -->
<SelectElement name="object_false" :native="false" :object="false" :items="[
  { label: 'Vue.js', value: 'vuejs' },
  { label: 'React', value: 'react' },
  { label: 'AngularJS', value: 'angularjs' },
]" ... />

<SelectElement name="object_true" :native="false" :object="true" :items="[
  { label: 'Vue.js', value: 'vuejs' },
  { label: 'React', value: 'react' },
  { label: 'AngularJS', value: 'angularjs' },
]" ... />

Whether the value should contain the full option object.

<SelectElement :limit="2" :items="['Vue.js', 'React', 'AngularJS']" ... />

Limits the number of options to be displayed. The -1 value turns off the limit.

<SelectElement :groups="true" :items="[
  {
    label: 'Vue.js packages',
    items: ['Vue Router', 'Vuex', 'Vue CLI']
  },
  {
    label: 'React packages',
    items: ['React Router', 'Redux', 'Create React App']
  },
  {
    label: 'AngularJS packages',
    items: ['Ngrx/Store'],

When groups is true the items must be provided in the following format:

[
  {
    [groupLabel]: 'Group label',
    [groupOptions]: items,
    disabled: Boolean,
  },
  //...
]

• groupLabel defines the key for the group label
• groupOptions defines the key for the group options
• items are the list of options as you would regularly define without groups
• disabled determines whether the group should be disabled (optional)

<SelectElement group-label="name" ... />

<!-- No reload, internal filtering --->
<SelectElement :search="true" :delay="-1"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data
  }" ...
/>

<!-- Instant reload, no internal filtering -->
<SelectElement :search="true" :delay="0" :filter-results="false"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }" ...
/>

<!-- Reload in 1000ms, no internal filtering -->
<SelectElement :search="true" :delay="1000" :filter-results="false"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }" ...
/>

The amount of milliseconds to wait between the last change of the search query and the reload of async items.

If it is 0 the items will be reloaded without delay when the search changes.

If it is -1 the items won't be reloaded upon search change, they will only be filtered internally.

If you have a remote set of data that you just want to load initially without filtering, you should set this to -1 to avoid unnecessary requests when the search query changes.

If you have a large set of data that actually needs filtering, make sure to set filterResults to false and take care of filtering manually by passing the searchQuery param to the request.

To avoid loading large set of data initially or having too many results for a search query (like an 'a') you can set resolveOnLoad to false and define minChars option.

If you want the option list to be emptied while fetching new items when the search query changes, set clearOnSearch to true.

<!-- Only refresh options when at least 2 characters are typed -->
<SelectElement :search="true" :delay="0" :filter-results="false" :resolve-on-load="false"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }"
  :min-chars="2" ...
/>

The minimum number of characters required to refresh async items. Thedelay must be >= 0 in order to reload items when the search changes.

If it is 0 the items will be refreshed even when the search becomes empty.

You should set filterResults to false when you are filtering items manually in the async function to avoid unneccessary requests when the search changes.

You should set resolveOnLoad to false to avoid loading a large set of unfiltered initial data.

<!-- All options are loaded initially -->
<SelectElement :search="true"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }"
  :resolve-on-load="true" ...
/>

<!-- Options are only loaded on search -->
<SelectElement :search="true" :filter-results="false" :delay="0"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }"
  :resolve-on-load="false" ...
/>

Whether to load async items when the component is mounted.

Set this to false if you have a large set of data that you only want to display after filtering, eg. in conjunction with minChars option.

You need to set delay to >= 0 in order to reload async items when the search changes.

You should set filterResults to false when you are filtering items manually in the async function to avoid unneccessary requests when the search changes.

<!-- Internal filtering is enabled -->
<SelectElement :search="true" :filter-results="true" />

<!-- Internal filtering is disabled -->
<SelectElement :search="true" :filter-results="false" />

Whether options should be filtered internally based on the search query.

Set this to false if you want to filter options manually, eg. in an async function.

You need to set delay to >= 0 in order to reload async items and perform manual filtering when the search changes.

You should set filterResults to false when you are filtering items manually in the async function to avoid unneccessary requests when the search changes.

<!-- Clears option list when reloading items --->
<SelectElement :search="true" :delay="1000" :filter-results="false"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }"
  :clear-on-search="false" ...
/>
<!-- Doesn't clear option list when reloading items --->
<SelectElement :search="true" :delay="1000" :filter-results="false"
  :items="async function(searchQuery) {
    return (await axios.get('https://vueform.com/json/async-items')).data.filter((i) => {
      return !searchQuery || i.indexOf(searchQuery) !== -1
    })
  }"
  :clear-on-search="true" ...
/>

If an element's conditions are unmet the element will be hidden and its available property will become false. If hidden, its value will not be part of requestData.

Conditions can be provided as an array, where each item has to be either an array or a function. The element will only become available if all the conditions are fulfilled.

If a condition is provided as an array, the first value must be the path of an other field which value should be watched. The second is an operator that defines the type of comparison. The third is the expected value of the other field.

• ^ - expect the other element's value to start with
• $ - expect the other element's value to end with
• * - expect the other element's value to contain
• in - expect to be among an array of values
• not_in - expect not to be among an array of values
• today - expect to be today
• before - expect to be before a date (value can be a YYYY-MM-DD date string or today)
• after - expect to be after a date (value can be a YYYY-MM-DD date string or today)

The expected value can also be defined as an array in which case any of its values will fulfill the condition.

Conditions can be defined with OR relation or as function. Learn more about conditions here.

<SelectElement label="Label" :columns="{ container: 12, label: 3, wrapper: 12 }" ... />

Sets the size of the container, label and wrapper using the theme's grid system, where the:

• container is the outermost DOM that contains both label and wrapper
• label contains the label
• wrapper contains the select.

The value of container defines the size of the element's container. 12 will result in full width, 6 in half, 4 in third and so on.

The value of label defines the amount of space the label should take up within the container. If the container is 12 and label is 6 the label is going to take up half the space and the select will the other half (which is calculated automatically). If the container is 6 and label is 6, the label will only take up one forth and the select the rest. In case the label has full width (12) the select will also take up full space instead of becoming zero.

The value of wrapper defines the size of the select wrapper within the space left for it in the container after subtracting the size of the label. If the container is 12 and label is 4 the space left for the select is 8. In this case if the wrapper value is 12 it will take up the full space left for it (which is 8) while if it is changed to 6 it will only take up half the space left for it (4):

<SelectElement label="Label" :columns="{ container: 12, label: 4, wrapper: 12 }" ... />
<SelectElement label="Label" :columns="{ container: 12, label: 4, wrapper: 6 }" ... />

Note that while the size of the select wrapper changes, the size of extras like a description or error won't be limited to the wrapper's space. Instead it will take up the full space in the container left after subtracting the size of the label:

<SelectElement
  label="Label"
  :columns="{ container: 12, label: 4, wrapper: 6 }" 
  description="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit"
... />

You can set the value of columns as a number in which case the container will receive its value without affecting the default settings of label and wrapper:

<SelectElement label="Label" :columns="6" ... /> <!-- { container: 6, label: 3, wrapper: 12 } -->

You can as well define column values for different breakpoints using the theme system's breakpoints like sm, md, etc. as keys:

<SelectElement label="Label" :columns="{
  xs: { container: 12, label: 12, wrapper: 12 },
  sm: { container: 12, label: 4, wrapper: 12 },
  md: 12,
  lg: { container: 12, label: 2, wrapper: 12 }
}" ... />

Default column sizes can be defined globally in vueform.config.js or on form level using columns.

<SelectElement :inline="true" ... />

Renders the element and all of its components in a single <span> without applying columns.

<SelectElement size="sm" ... />
<SelectElement ... /> <!-- Default size: 'md' -->
<SelectElement size="lg" ... />

The size of the element and its child components.

<SelectElement view="alt" ... />

The name of the view to be used for the element and by default for its child components. If undefined the default view will be used. Child component views can be overridden with views option.

Learn more about views here.

<SelectElement :views="{
  ComponentName: 'alt'
}" ... />

    classname: [{'class-value': true}],
  }
}" ... />

Adds classes to any component's class names. The classes can have string or array values. When Vue style classes are used object values must be wrapped in an array.

Conditional classes can be passed as a function with form$ param, eg.:

<SelectElement :add-classes="(form$) => ({
  ComponentName: {
    classname: [
      { 'class-value': form$.el$('other_field')?.value === 'some_value' }
    ],
  }
})" ... />

Conditional classes can be passed as a function with form$ param, eg.:

<SelectElement :remove-classes="(form$) => ({
  ComponentName: {
    classname: form$.el$('other_field')?.value === 'some_value'
      ? ['class-value-1', 'class-value-2']
      : [],
  }
})" ... />

<SelectElement :remove-class="{
  classname: ['class-value-1', 'class-value-2']
}" ... />

Removes classes from any of SelectElement component's class names. The classes to be removed must be listed in an array.

Conditional classes can be passed as a function with form$ param, eg.:

<SelectElement :remove-class="(form$) => ({

<SelectElement :replace-classes="{
  ComponentName: {
    classname: {
      'from-class': 'to-class',

      'from-class': [{'to-class': true}],
    }
  }
}" ... />

Replaces classes of any class names of any component. The keys are the original class names and the values are the replacements. The keys can only be single classes, while values can contain multiple ones in string or an array. When Vue style classes are used object values must be wrapped in an array.

Conditional classes can be passed as a function with form$ param, eg.:

Replaces the classes of any class names of SelectElement component. The keys are the original class names and the values are the replacements. The keys can only be single classes, while values can contain multiple ones in string or an array. When Vue style classes are used object values must be wrapped in an array.

Conditional classes can be passed as a function with form$ param, eg.:

<SelectElement :replace-class="(form$) => ({
  classname: form$.el$('other_field')?.value === 'some_value' ? {
    'from-class': 'to-class'
  } : {},
})" ... />
