Exposed methods

If you really want to get your hands dirty these internal functions are exposed as props to override if needed. See the adv demo or look through the test file (test/src/index.js) for examples.

export let itemFilter = (label, filterText, option) => label.toLowerCase().includes(filterText.toLowerCase());

export let groupBy = undefined; // see adv demo for example

export let groupFilter = groups => groups;

export let createGroupHeaderItem = groupValue => {
  return {
    value: groupValue,
    label: groupValue
  };
};

export let createItem = filterText => {
  return {
    value: filterText,
    label: filterText
  };
};

export let getOptionLabel = (option, filterText) => {
  return option.isCreator ? `Create \"${filterText}\"` : option.label;
};

export let getSelectionLabel = option => {
  if (option) return option.label;
};

export let getGroupHeaderLabel = option => {
  return option.label;
};

export function handleClear() {
  selectedValue = undefined;
  listOpen = false;
  dispatch("clear", selectedValue);
  handleFocus();
}

export let loadOptions = undefined; // if used must return a Promise that updates 'items'
/* Return an object with { cancelled: true } to keep the loading state as active. */

Styling

You can style a component by overriding the available CSS variables.

<script>
  import Select from 'svelte-select';

  const items = ['One', 'Two', 'Three'];
</script>

<style>
  .themed {
    --border: 3px solid blue;
    --borderRadius: 10px;
    --placeholderColor: blue;
  }
</style>

<div class="themed">
  <h2>Theming</h2>
  <Select {items}></Select>
</div>

You can also use the inputStyles prop to write in any override styles needed for the input.

<script>
  import Select from 'svelte-select';

  const items = ['One', 'Two', 'Three'];
</script>

<Select {items} inputStyles="box-sizing: border-box;"></Select>

Events

Event Name	Callback	Description
select	{ detail }	fires when selectedValue changes
clear	-	fires when clear all is invoked
loaded	{ items }	fires when `loadOptions` resolves
error	{ type, details }	fires when error is caught

<script>
  import Select from 'svelte-select';

  let items = [...];
  function handleSelect(event) {
    // event.detail will contain the selected value
    ...
  }
  function onClear() {
    ...
  }
</script>

<Select {items} on:select={handleSelect} on:clear={handleClear}></Select>

Development

yarn global add serve@8
yarn
yarn dev
yarn test:browser

In your favourite browser go to http://localhost:3000 and open devtools and see the console for the test output. When developing its handy to see the component on the page; comment out the select.$destroy(); on the last test in /test/src/index.js or use the test.only() to target just one test.

For example:

test.only('when getSelectionLabel contains HTML then render the HTML', async (t) => {
  const select = new Select({
    target,
    props: {
      selectedValue: items[0],
      getSelectionLabel: (option) => `<p>${option.label}</p>`,
    }
  });

  t.ok(document.querySelector('.selection').innerHTML === '<p>Chocolate</p>');

  //select.$destroy();
});

Configuring webpack

If you're using webpack with svelte-loader, make sure that you add "svelte" to resolve.mainFields in your webpack config. This ensures that webpack imports the uncompiled component (src/index.html) rather than the compiled version (index.mjs) — this is more efficient.

If you're using Rollup with rollup-plugin-svelte, this will happen automatically.
