react-pick

Accessible autocompletion components (e.g. typeahead inputs, popups, and comboboxes), implemented in React.

Intially derived from Ryan Florence's awesome react-autocomplete.

Installation & Usage

npm install react-pick

You'll need to make sure you're including the styles.css file in the root of the npm module in your app somehow. Or write your own, better stylesheet.

What's inside?

For out-of-the-box usage:

• <Combobox> - Supports find displaying asynchronous autocomplete suggestions inline as "type ahead" text, as a popup menu, and as both at once. Supports keyboard navigation, and seeks to be WAI-ARIA compliant.

For customizing <Combobox> and creating your own components:

• <TypeaheadInput> - An <input> that robustly inserts "type ahead" text.
• <InputWithPopup> - Attaches a popup to an <input>.
• <List> - A popup for rendering a list of possible completion options.
• <ListOption> - The default component for rendering options in <ListPopup>.

How do you use <Combobox>?

Pretty much the same way you would the <input> component in React, but with an extra getOptionsForInputValue property to fetch autocompletion options.

var React = require('react');
var {Combobox} = require('react-pick');

var AWESOME_PEOPLE = [
  'Ryan Florence',
  'Pete Hunt', 
  'Jonathan Wilde'
];

var MyAppWithACombobox = React.createClass({

  getInitialState: function() {
    return {value: null};
  },

  getOptionsForInputValue: function(inputValue) {
    return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
      inputValue = inputValue.toLowerCase();

      resolve(
        AWESOME_PEOPLE
          .map((person) => person.toLowerCase())
          .filter((person) => person.indexOf(inputValue) === 0)
      );
    });
  },

  handleChange: function(newValue) {
    this.setState({value: newValue});
  },

  render: function() {
    <div className="app">
      <Combobox
        getOptionsForInputValue={this.getOptionsForInputValue}
        onChange={this.handleChange}
        value={this.state.value}
      />
      <p>Selection: {this.state.value}</p>
    </div>
  }

});
