appendCurrent doesnt seem to do anything

[syropian]

I'm having trouble appending/replacing the items. Here's a little JSFiddle https://jsfiddle.net/jrpar74q/

Am I missing something obvious? I tried passing true as a second arg to replace the items, and that didn't work either.

appendCurrent only works if there is an active instance of Tribute, meaning that someone has typed a trigger character and the menu is visible. Use append if there is no active instance.

@mrsweaters Looking at the source, it looks like both append() and appendCurrent() call a private _append() function that always checks if the menu is visible (see https://github.com/zurb/tribute/blob/master/src/Tribute.js#L251-L259)

[mrsweaters]

Ah! You are correct, that should actually be specific to appendCurrent. This is a bug.

Cool, thanks for confirming! I'm currently working on a VueJS wrapper for Tribute, so due to the way data would be passed to the plugin, I can simply manually replace all the data whenever it changes, doing something like:

setValues(values){
  // If it has a "values" property, it's actually a collection
  if( values.hasOwnProperty("values") ){
    this.tribute.collection = values;
  }
  else {
    this.tribute.collection[0].values = values;
  }
}

@syropian Yeah that should work. Thanks for working on a wrapper for VueJS! When you're done, feel free to submit a PR to add it to the repo. That would be sweet!

[mrsweaters]

Fixed in 2.0.3!

[syropian]

Will do, how do you want me to go about creating a PR? Just a link in the README to the wrapper repo?

[mrsweaters]

Sure, that will be fine.

setValues(values){ // If it has a "values" property, it's actually a collection if( values.hasOwnProperty("values") ){ this.tribute.collection = values; } else { this.tribute.collection[0].values = values; } }

it works but the menu still holding old data, once close it and open means its working fine, how to update forcefully?
