Installation

npm install @vueform/multiselect

Using with Vue 3

<template>
  <div>
    <Multiselect
      v-model="value"
      :options="options"
    />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Multiselect from '@vueform/multiselect'

  export default {
    components: {
      Multiselect,
    },
    data() {
      return {
        value: null,
        options: [
          'Batman',
          'Robin',
          'Joker',
        ]
      }
    }
  }
</script>

<style src="@vueform/multiselect/themes/default.css"></style>

Using with Vue 2

When using Vue 2 install @vue/composition-api via npm/yarn first:

npm i @vue/composition-api --save-dev

Then install the plugin for Vue:

import Vue from 'vue'
import VueCompositionAPI from '@vue/composition-api'

Vue.use(VueCompositionAPI)

After that make sure to change the imported Multiselect module to:

import Multiselect from '@vueform/multiselect/dist/multiselect.vue2.js'

Using with Nuxt.js

First you need install @nuxtjs/composition-api:

npm i @nuxtjs/composition-api --save

Then you need to enable it as a module in nuxt.config.js:

{
  buildModules: [
    '@nuxtjs/composition-api/module'
  ]
}

After that make sure to change the imported module to Vue 2 version of Multiselect:

import Multiselect from '@vueform/multiselect/dist/multiselect.vue2'

For more information on using @nuxtjs/composition-api read their documentation.

    [valueProp]: 1,
    [label]: 'v1',
    disabled:true|false
  },
  //...
]
- a function returning a Promise (async function) with query and select$ param. The select$ represents the Multiselect component and its API can be accessed. The promise should return options as an object or as an array of objects.
When an array of objects is provided it must have properties that equal to :valueProp's, :trackBy's and :label's value.
groupsbooleanfalseWhether options should be groupped. Example:
{
  groups: true,
  options: [
    {
      [groupLabel]: 'Group label',
      [groupOptions]: {options},
      disabled: true|false,
    }

minCharsnumber0The minimum number of characters that should be typed to refresh async option list. If 0 it will refresh even when the search field becomes empty.
resolveOnLoadbooleantrueWhether async options should be loaded initially (with an empty query). This should be true if you are planning to load non-object value(s) initially while using async options (to fetch matching objects for values).
appendNewTagbooleantrueDeprecated 2.3.0: use appendNewOption instead.
Whether it should append new tag automatically to option list when using tags mode with createTag. If set to false you need to take care of appending a new tag to the provided :options list upon @tag event.

Styling with Tailwind CSS

To use Multiselect with Tailwind CSS first you need to add background images to tailwind.config.js:

// tailwind.config.js

const svgToDataUri = require('mini-svg-data-uri')

module.exports = {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      backgroundImage: (theme) => ({
        'multiselect-caret': `url("${svgToDataUri(
          `<svg viewBox="0 0 320 512" fill="currentColor" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M31.3 192h257.3c17.8 0 26.7 21.5 14.1 34.1L174.1 354.8c-7.8 7.8-20.5 7.8-28.3 0L17.2 226.1C4.6 213.5 13.5 192 31.3 192z"></path></svg>`,
        )}")`,
        'multiselect-spinner': `url("${svgToDataUri(
          `<svg viewBox="0 0 512 512" fill="${theme('colors.green.500')}" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M456.433 371.72l-27.79-16.045c-7.192-4.152-10.052-13.136-6.487-20.636 25.82-54.328 23.566-118.602-6.768-171.03-30.265-52.529-84.802-86.621-144.76-91.424C262.35 71.922 256 64.953 256 56.649V24.56c0-9.31 7.916-16.609 17.204-15.96 81.795 5.717 156.412 51.902 197.611 123.408 41.301 71.385 43.99 159.096 8.042 232.792-4.082 8.369-14.361 11.575-22.424 6.92z"></path></svg>`,
        )}")`,
        'multiselect-remove': `url("${svgToDataUri(
          `<svg viewBox="0 0 320 512" fill="currentColor" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M207.6 256l107.72-107.72c6.23-6.23 6.23-16.34 0-22.58l-25.03-25.03c-6.23-6.23-16.34-6.23-22.58 0L160 208.4 52.28 100.68c-6.23-6.23-16.34-6.23-22.58 0L4.68 125.7c-6.23 6.23-6.23 16.34 0 22.58L112.4 256 4.68 363.72c-6.23 6.23-6.23 16.34 0 22.58l25.03 25.03c6.23 6.23 16.34 6.23 22.58 0L160 303.6l107.72 107.72c6.23 6.23 16.34 6.23 22.58 0l25.03-25.03c6.23-6.23 6.23-16.34 0-22.58L207.6 256z"></path></svg>`,
        )}")`,
      })
    },
  }
}

Then you need to import themes/tailwind.css to you main component:

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <Multiselect ... />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  // ...
</script>

<style>
  @import 'path/to/node_modules/@vueform/multiselect/themes/tailwind.css'
</style>
Using :classes prop

Alternatively you can define class names directly by passing them to the Multiselect component via classes property. When using this approach you don't need to import tailwind.css. Here's a default styling for Tailwind CSS (the same included in tailwind.css):

<Multiselect ... :classes="{
  container: 'relative mx-auto w-full flex items-center justify-end box-border cursor-pointer border border-gray-300 rounded bg-white text-base leading-snug outline-none',
  containerDisabled: 'cursor-default bg-gray-100',

Certain classes has different states which are merged to the base class when the state is active. For example dropdown will be merged with dropdownTop when open-direction: 'top' resulting in the following classes: absolute -left-px -right-px bottom-0 transform translate-y-full border border-gray-300 -mt-px overflow-y-scroll z-50 bg-white flex flex-col rounded-b -translate-y-full top-px bottom-auto rounded-b-none rounded-t

The same is true for container, tag, options, groupLabel and option classes.

In case you need to override the same type of utility you might use @neojp/tailwind-important-variant for eg. bg-green-500!.

Async options with default values

When using resolveOnLoad: false we can add default values with object: true and providing options as objects, containing both label and value props. This is because option list is not resolved when the component is mounted so Multiselect has no idea of what option labels should be if only plain values were provided.

<template>
  <Multiselect
    mode="tags"
    v-model="value"
    placeholder="Select options"
    :close-on-select="false"
    :searchable="true"
    :object="true"
    :resolve-on-load="false"
    :delay="0"
    :min-chars="1"
    :options="async (query) => {
      return await fetchLanguages(query)
    }"
  />
</template>
<script>
export default {
  data: () => ({
    value: [
      { value: 'Java', label: 'Java' },
      { value: 'JavaScript', label: 'JavaScript' },
    ]
  })
}
</script>

JSFiddle - Example #11

Default values that are not among the options

If we want to add default values without having to add them to options list we can use object: true and provide them as objects, containing both label and value props. This is because if a plain value is not among Multiselect options it has no idea of what option label should be.

<template>
  <Multiselect
    mode="tags"
    v-model="value"
    placeholder="Select options"
    :close-on-select="false"
    :searchable="true"
    :object="true"
    :resolve-on-load="false"
    :delay="0"
    :min-chars="1"
    :options="async (query) => {
      return await fetchLanguages(query)
    }"
  />
</template>
<script>
export default {
  data: () => ({
    value: [
      { value: 'Java', label: 'Java' },
      { value: 'JavaScript', label: 'JavaScript' },
    ]
  })
}
</script>

JSFiddle - Example #12

Manage created tag asynchronously

Search is restricted by regex and tag creation is controlled by onCreate(option, select$).

<template>
  <Multiselect
    mode="tags"
    v-model="value"
    placeholder="Accepts numbers <= 67 (delay: 1000ms)"
    :options="[]"
    :create-option="true"
    :searchable="true"
    :regex="/\d/"
    :on-create="handleTagCreate"
  />
</template>
<script>
export default {
  methods: {
    handleTagCreate: async (option, select$) => {
      // Do not allow create tags above 67
      if (parseInt(option.value) > 67) {
        alert(`${option.value} is not allowed. Option must by <= 67.`)

        // If returns `false` the tag will not be added
        return false
      }

      // Async request (eg. for validating)
      await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        setTimeout(() => {
          resolve()
        }, 1000)
      })

      // Modifying option label
      option.label = option.label + ' - confirmed'

      return option
    }
  }
}
</script>

Load async options from API on open with infinite scroll

Options are not loaded initially, only when the users clicks the dropdown the first time. It also virtualizes the option list with infinite: true even large list of options can be loaded.

<Multiselect
  v-model="value"
  mode="tags"
  placeholder="Choose your stack"
  :close-on-select="false"
  :filter-results="false"
  :min-chars="0"
  :resolve-on-load="false"
  :infinite="true"
  :limit="10"
  :clear-on-search="true"
  :delay="0"
  :searchable="true"
  :options="async (query) => {
    return await fetchLanguages(query)
  }"
  @open="(select$) => {
    if (select$.noOptions) {
      select$.resolveOptions()
    }
  }"
/>
