Threshold AutoComplete code example has errors

@klepva We need to fix some types and imports in the example. Please try to use this code:

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { Observable, of, Subject } from 'rxjs';
import {
  map,
  mergeMap
} from 'rxjs/operators';
import { combineLatest } from 'rxjs';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-autocomplete',
  templateUrl: './autocomplete.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./autocomplete.component.scss'],
})
export class AutocompleteComponent implements OnInit {
  searchText = new Subject<string>();
  results: Observable<string[]>;
  notFound = false;

  data = ['One', 'Two', 'Three', 'Four', 'Five', 'Six', 'Seven', 'Eight'];

  constructor() {
    this.results = this.searchText.pipe(
      mergeMap((value: string) => {
        const results = this.filter(value);
          return combineLatest([of(value), of(results)]);
      }),
      map(([value, results]) => {
        if (value.length > 2 && results.length === 0) {
          this.notFound = true;
          return results;
        } else {
          this.notFound = false;
        }

        return results;
      })
    );
  }

  ngOnInit(): void {
  }

  filter(value: string): string[] {
    const filterValue = value.toLowerCase();

    if (filterValue.length >= 2) {
      return this.data.filter((item: string) => item.toLowerCase().includes(filterValue));
    } else {
      return [];
    }
  }

This still produces a problem:

error TS2322: Type 'Observable<string[]>' is not assignable to type 'NgIterable<any> | null | undefined'

pertaining to :

<mdb-option *ngFor="let option of results" [value]="option">

In the case that I'm missing something, can someone help me understand why the documentation is still not updated? This ticket is 2 weeks old.

I simply can't get the autocomplete to work at all.

I think there is something wrong with the search method as well. for example I input first 3 characters like "607" its display on the dropdown as not found but there are actually data with starting with 607. if I press space afterward it will display the dropdown with "607" string. This is the code I am using right now : search string thread hold from example :

 searchString (){
this.results = this.searchText.pipe(
  mergeMap((value: string) => {
    const results = this.filter(value);
      return combineLatest([of(value), of(results)]);
  }),
  map(([value, results]) => {
    if (value.length > 2 && results.length === 0) {
      this.notFound = true;
      return results;
    } else {
      this.notFound = false;
    }
    return results;
  })
);}

Filter

filter(value: string): string[] {
const filterValue = value.toLowerCase();

if (filterValue.length >= 2) {
  this.getSearchAddressResults(filterValue);
  return this.data.filter((item: string) => item.toLowerCase().includes(filterValue));
} else {
  return [];
} }

and get data method

getSearchAddressResults(searchvalue : string) {
this.searchserviceService.getSearchParcelResult(searchvalue).subscribe((value: Search[]) => {
  this.searchvm = value;
  this.data = this.searchvm.map(x => x.address);
  console.log(this.data);
});}
