TokenizedInput
Basic usage of this component is identical to that of [Typeahead]
(https://github.com/enigma-io/boundless/master/packages/* boundless-typeahead). Additional props are available to take
advantage of the tokenization functionality.
Component Instance Methods
When using TokenizedInput
in your project, you may call the following methods on a rendered instance of the
component. Use [refs
](* https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/refs-and-the-dom.html) to get the instance.
-
add(index: number)
programmatically creates a token for props.entities[index]
; props.handleAddToken
will be called as a hint to
persist the change in * your controller view or other application state
-
focus()
focuses the browser oon the underlying textual input for immediate text entry
-
getInputNode()
returns the raw underlying textual input DOM node
-
getSelectedEntityText()
returns the text
property of the currently highlighted entity (from props.entities
), or returns an empty string
-
getValue()
retrieves the current value of the underlying textual input
-
remove(index: number)
programmatically removes the token for props.entities[index]
; props.handleRemoveTokens
will be called as a hint
to persist the * change in your controller view or other application state
-
select()
programmatically creates a full selection on the underlying textual input such that a press of the Backspace key
would fully clear the * input
-
setValue(value: string)
sets the underlying textual input to the specified text and updates internal state; do not use this method when
using Typeahead
as a "controlled input"
Installation
npm i boundless-tokenized-input --save
Then use it like:
import { without } from 'lodash';
import { createElement, PureComponent } from 'react';
import TokenizedInput from 'boundless-tokenized-input';
import Typeahead from 'boundless-typeahead';

export default class TokenizedInputDemo extends PureComponent {
state = {
countries: countries.map((name) => ({ text: name })),
tokens: [ 11, 55, 211 ],
tokensSelected: [],
}
addTokenByEntityIndex = (index) => {
this.setState({ tokens: this.state.tokens.concat(index) });
}
removeTokensByEntityIndexes = (indexes) => {
this.setState({
tokens: without(this.state.tokens, ...indexes),
tokensSelected: without(this.state.tokensSelected, ...indexes),
});
}
handleSelectionByEntityIndexes = (indexes) => {
this.setState({ tokensSelected: indexes });
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<p>Enter a country you'd like to visit:</p>
<TokenizedInput
algorithm={Typeahead.mode.FUZZY}
entities={this.state.countries}
handleAddToken={this.addTokenByEntityIndex}
handleRemoveTokens={this.removeTokensByEntityIndexes}
handleNewSelection={this.handleSelectionByEntityIndexes}
hint={true}
tokenCloseComponent={<span>ⓧ</span>}
tokens={this.state.tokens}
tokensSelected={this.state.tokensSelected} />
</div>
);
}
}
TokenizedInput can also just be directly used from the main Boundless library. This is recommended when you're getting started to avoid maintaining the package versions of several components:
npm i boundless --save
the ES6 import
statement then becomes like:
import { TokenizedInput } from 'boundless';

button or pressing the Backspace
key while tokens are selected
-
hidePlaceholderOnFocus
· triggers the placeholder to disappear when the input field is focused, reappears when the user has tabbed away or focus is moved

excludes the
element from consideration
-
