select2 data structure

export interface Select2Group {
    /** label of group */
    label: string;
    /** options list */
    options: Select2Option[];
    /** add classes  */
    classes?: string;
    /** template id  */
    templateId?: string;
    /** template data  */
    data?: any;
}

export interface Select2Option {
    /** value  */
    value: Select2Value;
    /** label of option */
    label: string;
    /** no selectable is disabled */
    disabled?: boolean;
    /** for identification */
    id?: string;

    /** template id  */
    templateId?: string;

export type Select2Value = string | number | boolean | object;

export type Select2UpdateValue = Select2Value | Select2Value[];

export type Select2Data = (Select2Group | Select2Option)[];

export interface Select2UpdateEvent<U extends Select2UpdateValue = Select2Value> {
    /** component */
    readonly component: Select2;
    /** current selected value */
    readonly value: U;
    /** selected option */
    readonly options: Select2Option[];
}

    /** component */
    readonly component: Select2;
    /** current selected value */
    readonly value: U;
    /** selected option */
    readonly options: Select2Option[];
}

Templating

Unique template

<select2 [data]="data" [templates]="template">
    <ng-template #template let-data="data"><strong>{{data?.color}}</strong>: {{data?.name}}</ng-template>
</select2>

const data: Select2Data = [
    {
        value: 'heliotrope',
        label: 'Heliotrope',
        data: { color: 'white', name: 'Heliotrope' },
    },
    {
        value: 'hibiscus',
        label: 'Hibiscus',
        data: { color: 'red', name: 'Hibiscus' },
    },
];

Template group & option

<select2 [data]="data" [templates]="{option : option, group: group}">
    <ng-template #option let-data="data">{{data?.name}}</ng-template>
    <ng-template #group let-label="label">Group: {{label}}</ng-template>
</select2>

No difference in data structure. The template is defined by its type, option or group, automatically.

Template by templateId

<select2 [data]="data" [templates]="{template1 : template1, template2: template2}">
    <ng-template #template1 let-data="data">{{data?.name}}</ng-template>
    <ng-template #template2 let-label="label" let-data="data">{{label}} : {{data?.color}}</ng-template>
</select2>

const data: Select2Data = [
    {
        value: 'heliotrope',
        label: 'Heliotrope',
        data: { color: 'white', name: 'Heliotrope' },
        templateId: 'template1',
    },
    {
        value: 'hibiscus',
        label: 'Hibiscus',
        data: { color: 'red', name: 'Hibiscus' },
        templateId: 'template2',
    },
];

Possible object

• TemplateRef
• {template: TemplateRef}
• {option?: TemplateRef, group?: TemplateRef}
• {templateId1: TemplateRef, ...}

In addition to the rendering templates of options and groups, in addition to going through the templateSelection attribute, it is possible to define that of the selection :

• {templateSelection: TemplateRef}
• {optionSelection: TemplateRef}

Priority order

For group or option:

• 'id' (from item data templateId)
• 'group' or 'option'
• 'template'
• TemplateRef (from html attribute templates)
• Default render

For the selection:

• 'id' (from item data templateSelectionId)
• 'optionSelection'
• 'templateSelection'
• TemplateRef (from html attribute templateSelection)
• 'id' (from item data templateId)
• 'option'
• 'template'
• TemplateRef (from html attribute templates)
• Default render

Overlay

If the overlay mode is used / activated, add to the project root in CSS (with ViewEncapsulation.None)

@import '~@angular/cdk/overlay-prebuilt.css';

CSS variables

It's possible to change different colors (and more) with CSS variables without having to modify them with ::ng-deep or other CSS rules :
