Select an item in a list. Use with Field to access all functionalities.

Base

The select input uses HTML's native select input. Select inputs can be single value selections, or multi-value selections by using the multiple attribute.

Options

There are 4 ways to provide options to a select input:

• An array of primitives
• An object of value/label pairs
• An array of objects with label and value properties (the same as the checkbox and radio inputs)
• Using the native <option> tags directly inside the default slot.

Array of primitives

The simplest way to provide options is an array of primitives like strings or numbers, where the primitive will be used for both thestring casted label representation and the value of the option.

HTML

<section>
    <o-field label="Select a character">
        <o-select
            placeholder="Select a character"
            expanded
            icon="user"
            :options="[
                'Tyrion Lannister',
                'Jamie Lannister',
                'Daenerys Targaryen',
                'Jon Snow',
            ]" />
    </o-field>
</section>

Value / Label object

You may also provide the options prop where the keys are values and the values of each property are labels.

<section>
    <o-field label="Select a character">
        <o-select
            placeholder="Select a character"
            expanded
            icon="user"
            :options="{
                heisenberg: 'Heisenberg',
                jesse: 'Jesse',
                saul: 'Saul',
                mike: 'Mike',
                jack: 'Jack',
            }" />
    </o-field>
</section>

Array of objects

The most flexible way to define options is to provide an array of objects. The object is defined as:
{ value: any, label: string, attrs?: object }
The value attribute is the real value which will be used by the v-model property and other events. The label attribute is the visible representation of the option. The attrs attribute is an object for additional attributes, which will be applied to the option item tag.

<section>
    <o-field label="Select a character">
        <o-select
            placeholder="Select a character"
            expanded
            icon="user"
            :options="[
                { label: 'Flint', value: 'flint' },
                { label: 'Silver', value: 'silver' },
                { label: 'Vane', value: 'vane' },
                { label: 'Billy', value: 'billy' },
                {
                    label: 'Jack',
                    value: 'jack',
                    attrs: { disabled: true },
                },
            ]" />
    </o-field>
</section>

Option groups

Using the array of objects syntax you can also create grouped options (<optgroup> in HTML) by adding an options property to the object option.

<section>
    <o-field>
        <o-select
            v-model="selected"
            placeholder="Select a character"
            icon="user"
            expanded
            :options="[
                {
                    group: 'Names',
                    options: ['Flint', 'Silver', 'Vane', 'Jack'],
                },
                {
                    group: 'Numbers',
                    options: [1, 2, 3],
                },
            ]" />
    </o-field>

    <p><b>Selected:</b> {{ selected }}</p>
</section>

JS

import { ref } from "vue";

const selected = ref<string>("");

Default Slot

Sometimes it may be desirable to manually output the contents of a select list in order to create specialized structures. This can be done by using the default slot to explicitly output your options like the native HTML select element.

HTML

<section>
    <o-field label="Where would you prefer to live?">
        <o-select placeholder="Select a planet" expanded>
            <optgroup label="Inner Planets">
                <option value="mercury">Mercury</option>
                <option value="venus">Venus</option>
                <option value="earth">Earth</option>
                <option value="mars">Mars</option>
            </optgroup>
            <optgroup label="Outer planets">
                <option value="jupiter">Jupiter</option>
                <option value="saturn">Saturn</option>
                <option value="uranus">Uranus</option>
                <option value="neptune">Neptune</option>
            </optgroup>
        </o-select>
    </o-field>
</section>

Multiple

The select input also supports a multiple attribute that allows for multi-selection. When used the v-model attribute will be an array of values.

Accessibility Notes

Select inputs with the multiple attribute can be challenging for some users because they require holding-down the control or command keys to perform multiple selections. Depending on your audience, you may want to consider using a checkbox input instead.
