Select

When there are plenty of options, use a drop-down menu to display and select desired ones.

TIP

After version 2.5.0, the default width of el-select changed to 100%. When used in a inline form, the width will collapse. In order to display the width properly, you need to give el-select a specific width (eg: Example) .

Basic usage

v-model is the value of el-option that is currently selected.

Disable the whole component.

Set disabled of el-select to make it disabled.

Select

Clearable single select

You can clear Select using a clear icon.

Set clearable attribute for el-select and a clear icon will appear. Note that clearable is only for single select.

Select

Basic multiple select

Multiple select uses tags to display selected options.

Set multiple attribute for el-select to enable multiple mode. In this case, the value of v-model will be an array of selected options. By default the selected options will be displayed as Tags. You can collapse them to a text by using collapse-tags attribute. You can check them when mouse hover collapse text by using collapse-tags-tooltip attribute.

Grouping

Display options in groups.

Use el-option-group to group the options, and its label attribute stands for the name of the group.

Select

Option filtering

You can filter options for your desired ones.

Adding filterable to el-select enables filtering. By default, Select will find all the options whose label attribute contains the input value. If you prefer other filtering strategies, you can pass the filter-method. filter-method is a Function that gets called when the input value changes, and its parameter is the current input value.

Select

Enter keywords and search data from server.

Set the value of filterable and remote with true to enable remote search, and you should pass the remote-method. remote-method is a Function that gets called when the input value changes, and its parameter is the current input value. Note that if el-option is rendered with the v-for directive, you should add the key attribute for el-option. Its value needs to be unique, such as item.value in the following example.

default

Please enter a keyword

use remote-show-suffix

Please enter a keyword

Create new items

Create and select new items that are not included in select options

By using the allow-create attribute, users can create new items by typing in the input box. Note that for allow-create to work, filterable must be true. This example also demonstrates default-first-option. When this attribute is set to true, you can select the first option in the current option list by hitting enter without having to navigate with mouse or arrow keys.

Choose tags for your article

Use value-key attribute

If the binding value of Select is an object, make sure to assign value-key as its unique identity key name.

By using the value-key attribute, data with duplicate labels can be properly handled. The value of the label property is duplicated, but the option can be identified through the id.

Select

selected option's description: no select
