Tailwind CSS Autocomplete

Autocomplete component predicts the words being typed based on the first few letters given by the user. You can search the list using basic scroll and the keyboard arrows.

Basic example

The filter option is required in order for component to work properly. The option accepts a function that is expected to return an array of results or a Promise that resolves to an array of results.

Display value

The displayValue option allow to separate oryginal result value from the value that will be displayed in the result list or input (after selection). Its useful when the data returned by the filter function is an array of objects. You can specify which parameter of the object should be displayed.

Asynchronous search

The function passed to the filter option can return a Promise that resolves to an array of results. By default the component expects to receive data as an array of strings. If you want to return an array of objects instead, you can use displayValue option to specify which parameter should be used as a display value of the specific result.

Custom item template

The itemContent option allow to display custom HTML in the result list. You can use the listHeight option to modify the result list height when you want to display more content in the component dropdown.

Custom content

A custom content container with a data-te-autocomplete-custom-content-ref attribute will be displayed at the end of the autocomplete dropdown. You can use it to display a number of search results.
