A component inspired by material design for creating visually nice select components.
Checkout a live demo at http://www.buompris.co/ng2-material-select
npm install ng2-material-select --save
placeholder
- defines the placeholder when no items are selectedmultiple
- defines whether it's possible to select multiple items
<ng2-select [placeholder]="'Choose your framework'"
[options]="options"
[(ngModel)]="framework">
</ng2-select>
// import module
import { Ng2SelectModule } from 'ng2-material-select';
@NgModule({
imports: [ Ng2SelectModule ]
// ..
})
export class MyModule {}
In case you want to use objects instead of simple arrays, you might want to use 3 further options:
-
displayBy
- defines the key for displaying the value of the item -
?selectedDisplayBy
- optional, defines the key for displaying the value once an item is selected -
?identifyBy
- optional, it is useful in case there is the possibility to have items with duplicate values (ex. two items with the same name). In that case, you can defined another key (ex. id) to correctly identify the item. Also, this allows the component to usetrackBy
In addition to that you may listen to a change event to get notified whenever a new option has been selected:
- onChange - optional, fires whenever a new option gets selected
<ng2-select [placeholder]="'Choose your framework'"
[displayBy]="'name'"
[selectedDisplayBy]="'label'"
[identifyBy]="'name'"
[options]="options"
[(ngModel)]="framework">
</ng2-select>
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app',
template: require('./home.html')
})
export class App {
framework = 'Angular 2';
options = [
{
name: 'Angular2',
label: 'ng2',
id: 0
},
{
name: 'React',
label: 'rx',
id: 1
}
];
}
