Components

Select

Display a select field.

Usage

The Select component is a wrapper around the native <select> HTML element. For more advanced use cases like searching or multiple selection, consider using the SelectMenu component.

Use a v-model to make the Select reactive alongside the options prop to pass an array of strings or objects.

<script setup lang="ts">
const countries = ['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']

const country = ref(countries[0])
</script>

<template>
  <USelect v-model="country" :options="countries" />
</template>

When using objects, you can configure which field will be used for display through the option-attribute prop that defaults to label and which field will be used for comparison through the value-attribute prop that defaults to value.

Adding a disabled key to the objects will control the disabled state of the option.

<script setup lang="ts">
const countries = [{
  name: 'United States',
  value: 'US'
}, {
  name: 'Canada',
  value: 'CA',
  disabled: true
}, {
  name: 'Mexico',
  value: 'MX'
}]

const country = ref('CA')
</script>

<template>
  <USelect v-model="country" :options="countries" option-attribute="name" />
</template>

Style

Use the color and variant props to change the visual style of the Select.

<template>
  <USelect
    color="primary"
    variant="outline"
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
  />
</template>

Besides all the colors from the ui.colors object, you can also use the white (default) and gray colors with their pre-defined variants.

White

<template>
  <USelect
    color="white"
    variant="outline"
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
  />
</template>

Gray

<template>
  <USelect
    color="gray"
    variant="outline"
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
  />
</template>

Size

Use the size prop to change the size of the Select.

<template>
  <USelect size="sm" :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']" />
</template>

Placeholder

Use the placeholder prop to set a placeholder text.

<template>
  <USelect
    placeholder="Search..."
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
  />
</template>

Icon

Use any icon from Iconify by setting the icon prop by using this pattern: i-{collection_name}-{icon_name}.

Use the trailing-icon prop to set a different icon or change it globally in ui.select.default.trailingIcon. Defaults to i-heroicons-chevron-down-20-solid.

<template>
  <USelect
    icon="i-heroicons-magnifying-glass-20-solid"
    color="white"
    size="sm"
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
    placeholder="Search..."
  />
</template>

Disabled

Use the disabled prop to disable the Select.

<template>
  <USelect
    disabled
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
    placeholder="Search..."
  />
</template>

Add a disabled key with a truthy value to the options array of object to disable a single option.

Loading

Use the loading prop to show a loading icon and disable the Input.

Use the loading-icon prop to set a different icon or change it globally in ui.select.default.loadingIcon. Defaults to i-heroicons-arrow-path-20-solid.

<template>
  <USelect
    loading
    icon="i-heroicons-magnifying-glass-20-solid"
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
    placeholder="Search..."
  />
</template>

Padded

Use the padded prop to remove the padding of the Select.

<template>
  <USelect
    :padded="false"
    placeholder="Search..."
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
    variant="none"
    class="w-full"
  />
</template>

Slots

leading

Use the #leading slot to set the content of the leading icon.

<template>
  <USelect
    :options="['United States', 'Canada', 'Mexico']"
    placeholder="Search..."
  >
    <template #leading>
      <UIcon name="i-heroicons-flag" class="w-5 h-5" />
    </template>
  </USelect>
</template>

trailing

Use the #trailing slot to set the content of the trailing icon.

<template>
  <USelect placeholder="Search...">
    <template #trailing>
      <UIcon name="i-heroicons-arrows-up-down-20-solid" class="w-5 h-5" />
    </template>
  </USelect>
</template>
