Topic: Chips Autocomplete

bitjuice pro asked 6 years ago

Hi, I need an input control with chips autocomplete (exemple: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lr2NRZI2SLOxy_xvs4RqUlWgl-FWdG1u/view?usp=sharing), that take data from remote server. Is there a way to make it by the current MDB library? Thanks

Dear bitjuice, Unfortunately, there is no way to achieve your desired behavior with the current version of MDB Angular. This is quite a nice feature, and I'll add this to our nice-to-have list, and we'll think about implementing it in the future. Best Regards, Damian

Hi, I also need this feature, autocomplete with chip. I'm working on it and it's almost done, I only have one issue:

Is it possible add new tags with javascript? If I add initial tags at the loading of the page

$('.chipfld').material_chip({ data: arr });

It works.

BUT

I need to add them when I click on the options returned by the backend... So I need to trigger a "add new tag" event when I click on something, It's like simulating the "enter key" on the hidden input field created by the jquery chip.

I also tried to make a fresh tab of datas with the new data added

$('.chipfld').material_chip({ data: myNewArr });

but it doesn't work, the tags are not generated...
