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

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

select/basic-usage

:::

Options attribute ^(2.10.5)

:::demo Shortcut from basic el-option usage. You can customize the alias of the options through the props attribute.

select/options

:::

Disabled option

:::demo Set the value of disabled in el-option to true to disable this option.

select/disabled-option

:::

Disabled select

Disable the whole component.

:::demo Set disabled of el-select to make it disabled.

select/disabled

:::

Clearable

You can clear Select using a clear icon.

:::demo Set clearable attribute for el-select and a clear icon will appear.

select/clearable

:::

Sizes

:::demo Add size attribute to change the size of Select. In addition to the default size, there are two other options: large, small.

select/size

:::

Basic multiple select

Multiple select uses tags to display selected options.

:::demo 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.

select/multiple

:::

Custom template

You can customize HTML templates for options.

:::demo Insert customized HTML templates into the slot of el-option.

select/custom-template

:::

Header of the dropdown ^(2.4.3)

You can customize the header of the dropdown.

:::demo Use slot to customize the content.

select/custom-header

:::

You can customize the footer of the dropdown.

:::demo Use slot to customize the content.

select/custom-footer

:::

Grouping

Display options in groups.

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

select/grouping

:::

Option filtering

You can filter options for your desired ones.

:::demo 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/filterable

:::

Enter keywords and search data from server.

:::demo 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.

select/remote-search

:::

Create new items

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

:::demo 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.

select/allow-create

:::

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.

:::demo 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/value-key

:::

Custom Tag ^(2.5.0)

You can customize tags.

:::demo Insert customized tags into the slot of el-select. collapse-tags, collapse-tags-tooltip, max-collapse-tags will not work.

select/custom-tag

:::

Custom Loading ^(2.5.2)

Override loading content.

:::demo

select/custom-loading

:::

Empty Values ^(2.7.0)

If you want to support empty string, please set empty-values to [null, undefined].

If you want to change the clear value to null, please set value-on-clear to null.

:::demo

select/empty-values

:::

Custom Label ^(2.7.4)

You can customize label.

:::demo

select/custom-label
