Search

Search a searchbox text input with a menu. Handle the case where dataset filtering needs to occur outside the combobox component.

Import

Copyts
import { Search } from "@kobalte/core/search";
// or
import { Root, Label, ... } from "@kobalte/core/search";

Copyts
import { Search } from "@kobalte/core/search";
// or
import { Root, Label, ... } from "@kobalte/core/search";

Features

  • Inherits all the features of combobox, except result filtering which should be managed externally.
  • Debouncing text input to rate limit search suggestions calls.
  • Optional indicator to show when suggestions are loading.

Anatomy

The search consists of:

  • Search: The root container for a search component.
  • Search.Label: The label that gives the user information on the search component.
  • Search.Description: The description that gives the user more information on the component.
  • Search.Control: Contains the search input and indicator.
  • Search.Indicator: Wrapper for icon to indicate loading status.
  • Search.Icon: A small icon often displayed next to the input as a visual affordance for the fact it can be open.
  • Search.Input: The input used to search and reflects the selected suggestion values.
  • Search.Portal: Portals its children into the body when the search is open.
  • Search.Content: Contains the content to be rendered when the search is open.
  • Search.Arrow: An optional arrow element to render alongside the search content.
  • Search.Listbox: Contains a list of items and allows a user to search one or more of them.
  • Search.Section: Used to render the label of an option group. It won't be focusable using arrow keys.
  • Search.Item: An item of the search suggestion.
  • Search.ItemLabel: An accessible label to be announced for the item.
  • Search.ItemDescription: An optional accessible description to be announced for the item.
  • Search.NoResult: Displayed when no suggestion options are given.

Usage

Debounce

Set debounceOptionsMillisecond, to prevent new search queries immediately on input change. Instead, search queries are requested once input is idle for a set time.

Show a debouncing icon by adding a loadingComponent to Search.Indicator.

Inline style

To achieve the command menu look, add the open prop to permanently open dropdown. Replace Search.Portal and Search.Content with a div to directly mount your content below the search input.
