Livewire Select
Livewire component for dependant and/or searchable select inputs
Preview
Installation
You can install the package via composer:
composer require asantibanez/livewire-select
Requirements
This package uses livewire/livewire (https://laravel-livewire.com/) under the hood.
It also uses TailwindCSS (https://tailwindcss.com/) for base styling.
Please make sure you include both of these dependencies before using this component.
Usage
In order to use this component, you must create a new Livewire component that extends from LivewireSelect
You can use make:livewire to create a new component. For example.
php artisan make:livewire CarModelSelect
In the CarModelSelect class, instead of extending from the base Livewire Component class, extend from LivewireSelect class. Also, remove the render method. You'll have a class similar to this snippet.
class CarModelSelect extends LivewireSelect
{
//
}
In this class, you must override the following methods to provide options for your select input
public function options($searchTerm = null) : Collection
{
//
}
options() must return a collection of keyed values array items that must have at least the following keys: value and description. For example:
public function options($searchTerm = null) : Collection
{
return collect([
[
'value' => 'honda',
'description' => 'Honda',
],
[
'value' => 'mazda',
'description' => 'Mazda',
],
[
'value' => 'tesla',
'description' => 'Tesla',
],
]);
}
To render the component in a view, just use the Livewire tag or include syntax
<livewire:car-brand-select
name="car_brand_id"
:value="$initialValue" // optional
placeholder="Choose a Car Brand" // optional
/>
You'll see on screen a select input with some custom styles with your defined values
Nothing fancy there. Now, let's make another select input depend on its value.
Create another component following the same process above. In this case, we will create a CarModelSelect with the following options() method.
// In CarModelSelect component
public function options($searchTerm = null) : Collection
{
$modelsByBrand = [
'tesla' => [
['value' => 'Model S', 'description' => 'Model S'],
['value' => 'Model 3', 'description' => 'Model 3'],
['value' => 'Model X', 'description' => 'Model X'],
],
'honda' => [
['value' => 'CRV', 'description' => 'CRV'],
['value' => 'Pilot', 'description' => 'Pilot'],
],
'mazda' => [
['value' => 'CX-3', 'description' => 'CX-3'],
['value' => 'CX-5', 'description' => 'CX-5'],
['value' => 'CX-9', 'description' => 'CX-9'],
],
];
$carBrandId = $this->getDependingValue('car_brand_id');
if ($this->hasDependency('car_brand_id') && $carBrandId != null) {
return collect(data_get($modelsByBrand, $carBrandId, []));
}
return collect([
['value' => 'Model S', 'description' => 'Tesla - Model S'],
['value' => 'Model 3', 'description' => 'Tesla - Model 3'],
['value' => 'Model X', 'description' => 'Tesla - Model X'],
['value' => 'CRV', 'description' => 'Honda - CRV'],
['value' => 'Pilot', 'description' => 'Honda - Pilot'],
['value' => 'CX-3', 'description' => 'Mazda - CX-3'],
['value' => 'CX-5', 'description' => 'Mazda - CX-5'],
['value' => 'CX-9', 'description' => 'Mazda - CX-9'],
]);
}
and define it in the view like this
<livewire:car-model-select
name="car_model_id"
placeholder="Choose a Car Model"
:depends-on="['car_brand_id']"
/>
With these two snippets we have defined a select input that depends-on another select input with name car_brand_id. With this definition, we tell our component to listen to any updates on our car_brand_id input and be notified on changes.
Notice in the options() method the use of two other helper methods: getDependingValue and hasDependency.
getDependingValue('token') will return the value of another field, in this case car_brand_id. If car_brand_id has no value, then it will return null.
hasDependency('token') allows us to check if our component has been specified to depend on other component values. This allows us to reuse the component by checking if a dependency has been specified in our layouts.
For example if we define the same component without the :depends-on attribute, we can use the component and return all car models.
<livewire:car-model-select
name="car_model_id"
placeholder="Choose a Car Model"
/>
It should look something like this
Searchable inputs
You can define the searchable attribute on the component to change the behavior of your inputs. With :searchable="true" your component will change its behavior to allow searching the options returned in the options() method.
<livewire:car-model-select
name="car_model_id"
placeholder="Choose a Car Model"
:searchable="true"
/>
Your input will look something like this
To filter the options in the dropdown, you can use the $searchTerm parameter in the options() method.
