[drakej]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe...

b-dropdown provides only variant as a way to set attributes and style on the b-button it creates

Describe the solution you'd like

Some way to set properties and attributes on the b-button that's created.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I have not found one which is why I'm filing this request.

Additional context

You need to make sure you don't generate markup and bootstrap components with no flexibility. I'm very concerned that this isn't the only case this plugin breaks or doesn't provide a way to actually use the flexibility of bootstrap itself.

Which button's are you referring too, the generated toggle button (which is rendered either as a button, or a link when in navbar), or the b-dropdown-item-button?

[drakej]

The generated toggle button. Sorry should have made that clear. I haven't found a way I can actually set for example type="reset" instead of type="button" on that generated markup.

[tmorehouse]

You can specify toggle-class prop to add custom classes to the dropdowns trigger button.

When you want to set type = 'reset', I am assuming you are referring to a split dropdown button?

[tmorehouse]

If you are looking to reset a form using a split button, you can add a click listener which then invokes the reset() method of a <form> element (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormElement/reset)

Good idea, I didn't think of that workaround, but ya that's what I'm trying to do. Was hoping to find a way to set an attribute that would affect the generated markup directly.

[tmorehouse]

We might be able to add in a split-button-type prop which defaults to button (as long as there is no split-to or split-href prop set). And allows only types button, submit, reset

$el.ownerDocument.getElementById('filter_form').reset()
^ This worked putting this in @click on the b-dropdown tag
