react-functional-select

Micro-sized & micro-optimized select component for React.js.

Latest Stable Version Issues License Downloads

Key features:

  • Fully-featured package that is truly lightweight: 8 KB (gzipped)!
  • Extensible styling API with styled-components
  • Opt-in properties to make the component fully accessible
  • Effortlessly scroll, filter, and key through datasets numbering in the tens of thousands via react-window + performance conscious code
  • Async mode for fetching dynamic options from a remote server using the search input value (starting in v2.1.0)

Overview

Essentially, this is a focused subset of react-select's API that is engineered for ultimate performance and minimal bundle size. It is built entirely using React Hooks and FunctionComponents. The primary design principal revolves around weighing the cost/benefits of adding a feature against the impact to performance & # of lines of code its addition would have.

I opted to exclude less "in-demand" features such as:

  • Preventing scroll events on the app's body if the menu is open TODO: add code example
  • Closing an open menu if the app's body is scrolled TODO: add code example

These feature would have added significant overhead to the package. In addition, if we expose the right public methods and/or callback properties, this feature should be trivial to add to wrapping components - proper decoupling and abstraction of code is key to keeping such channels open for similar customizations that can be kept out of this package.

Installation

$ npm i react-window styled-components react-functional-select
$ yarn add react-window styled-components react-functional-select

Note that you need to be on a react version that supports hooks, e.g.
react@^16.8 react-dom@^16.8 react-is@^16.8

Usage

You can find a similar example, along with others, in the storybook..

import { Select } from 'react-functional-select';
import React, { useState, useEffect, useCallback } from 'react';
import { Card, CardHeader, CardBody, Container, SelectContainer } from './helpers/styled';

type CityOption = {
  readonly id: number;
  readonly city: string;
  readonly state: string;
};

const CITY_OPTIONS: CityOption[] = [
  { id: 1, city: 'Austin', state: 'TX' },
  { id: 2, city: 'Denver', state: 'CO' },
  { id: 3, city: 'Chicago', state: 'IL' },
  { id: 4, city: 'Phoenix', state: 'AZ' },
  { id: 5, city: 'Houston', state: 'TX' },
];

const SingleSelectDemo: React.FC = () => {
  const [isInvalid, setIsInvalid] = useState<boolean>(false);
  const [isDisabled, setIsDisabled] = useState<boolean>(false);
  const [isClearable, setIsClearable] = useState<boolean>(true);
  const [selectedOption, setSelectedOption] = useState<CityOption | null>(null);

  const getOptionValue = useCallback((option: CityOption): number => option.id, []);
  const onOptionChange = useCallback((option: CityOption | null): void => setSelectedOption(option), []);
  const getOptionLabel = useCallback((option: CityOption): string => `${option.city}, ${option.state}`, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    isDisabled && setIsInvalid(false);
  }, [isDisabled]);

  return (
    <Container>
      <Card>
        <CardHeader>
          {`Selected Option: ${JSON.stringify(selectedOption || {})}`}
        </CardHeader>
        <CardBody>
          <SelectContainer>
            <Select
              isInvalid={isInvalid}
              options={CITY_OPTIONS}
              isDisabled={isDisabled}
              isClearable={isClearable}
              onOptionChange={onOptionChange}
              getOptionValue={getOptionValue}
              getOptionLabel={getOptionLabel}
            />
          </SelectContainer>
        </CardBody>
      </Card>
    </Container>
  );
};

Properties

All properties are technically optional (with a few having default values). Very similar with react-select's API.

Note that the following non-primitive properties should be properly memoized if defined:
clearIcon, caretIcon, options, renderOptionLabel, renderMultiOptions, onMenuOpen, onOptionChange, onKeyDown, getOptionLabel, getOptionLabel, getOptionValue, onInputBlur, onInputFocus, onInputChange, onSearchChange, getIsOptionDisabled, getFilterOptionString, themeConfig

Property Type Default Description
inputId string undefined The id of the autosize search input
selectId string undefined The id of the parent div
ariaLabel string undefined Aria label (for assistive tech)
isMulti bool false Does the control allow for multiple selections (defaults to single-value mode)
async bool false Is the component in 'async' mode - when in 'async' mode, updates to the input search value will NOT cause the effect useMenuOptions to execute (this effect parses options into stateful value menuOptions)
autoFocus bool false Focus the control following initial mount of component
isLoading bool false Is the select in a state of loading - shows loading dots animation
isInvalid bool false Is the current value invalid - control recieves invalid styling
inputDelay number undefined The debounce delay in for the input search (milliseconds)
isDisabled bool false Is the select control disabled - recieves disabled styling
placeholder string Select option.. Placeholder text for the select value
menuWidth ReactText 100% Width of the menu
menuItemSize number 35 The height of each option in the menu (px)
isClearable bool false Is the select value clearable
noOptionsMsg string No options The text displayed in the menu when there are no options available
loadingMsg string Loading... The text displayed in the menu when isLoading === true
clearIcon ReactNode OR ((state: Partial<IndicatorIconsProps>) => ReactNode) undefined Custom clear icon node - state forwarded to a function is { menuOpen, isLoading, isInvalid, isDisabled }
caretIcon ReactNode OR ((state: Partial<IndicatorIconsProps>) => ReactNode) undefined Custom caret icon node - state forwarded to a function is { menuOpen, isLoading, isInvalid, isDisabled }
loadingNode ReactNode undefined Custom loading node
options array [] The menu options
isSearchable bool true Whether to enable search functionality or not
hideSelectedOptions bool false Hide the selected option from the menu (if undefined and isMulti = true, then defaults to true)
openMenuOnClick bool true If true, the menu can be toggled by clicking anywhere on the select control; if false, the menu can only be toggled by clicking the 'caret' icon on the far right of the control
menuMaxHeight number 300 Max height of the menu element - this effects how many options react-window will render.
menuScrollDuration number 300 Duration of scroll menu into view animation
addClassNames bool false Should static classNames be generated for container elements (enable if styling using CSS stylesheets)
ariaLabelledBy string undefined HTML ID of an element that should be used as the label (for assistive tech)
openMenuOnFocus bool false Open the menu when the select control recieves focus
initialValue any undefined Initial select value
menuOverscanCount number 1 correlates to react-window property overscanCount: The number of items (options) to render outside of the visible area. Increasing the number can impact performance, but is useful if the option label is complex and the renderOptionLabel prop is defined
tabSelectsOption bool true Select the currently focused option when the user presses tab
blurInputOnSelect bool false Remove focus from the input when the user selects an option (useful for dismissing the keyboard on touch devices)
closeMenuOnSelect bool true Close the select menu when the user selects an option
isAriaLiveEnabled bool false Enables visually hidden div that reports stateful information (for assistive tech)
scrollMenuIntoView bool true Performs animated scroll to show menu in view when menu is opened (if there is room to do so)
backspaceClearsValue bool true Remove the currently focused option when the user presses backspace
filterMatchFrom 'any' OR 'start' 'any' Position in stringified option to match search input
menuPosition 'top' OR 'auto' OR 'bottom' 'bottom' Determines where menu will be placed in relation to the control - 'auto' will first check if menu has space to open below the control, otherwise it will open above the control.
filterIgnoreCase bool true Search input ignores case of characters when comparing
filterIgnoreAccents bool false Search input will strip diacritics from string before comparing
onMenuOpen (...args: any[]): void undefined Callback function executed after the menu is opened
onMenuClose (...args: any[]): void undefined Callback function executed after the menu is closed
onOptionChange (data: any): void undefined Callback function executed after a new option is selected
onKeyDown (e: KeyboardEvent<HTMLDivElement>): void undefined Callback function executed onKeyDown event
getOptionLabel (data: any): ReactText undefined Resolves option data to React.ReactText to be displayed as the label by components (by default will use option.label)
getOptionValue (data: any): ReactText undefined Resolves option data to React.ReactText to compare option values (by default will use option.value)
onInputBlur (e: FocusEvent<HTMLInputElement>): void undefined Handle blur events on the search input
onInputFocus (e: FocusEvent<HTMLInputElement>): void undefined Handle focus events on the search input
onInputChange (value: string): void undefined Handle change events on the search input
onSearchChange (value: string): void undefined Callback executed after the debounced search input value is persisted to the component's state - if no debounce is defined via the inputDelay property, it probably makes more sense to use onInputChange instead.
renderOptionLabel (data: any): ReactNode undefined Formats option labels in the menu and control as JSX.Elements or React Components (by default will use getOptionLabel)
renderMultiOptions (params: MultiParams): ReactNode undefined Allows for customization as to how multi-select options should be formatted. The MultiParams contains the array of selected options { selected: Array<{ data: any, value: ReactText, label: ReactText}>, renderOptionLabel: (data: any): ReactNode }. Left and right arrow key navigation will also be disabled when this property is defined.
getIsOptionDisabled (data: any): boolean undefined When defined will evaluate each option to determine whether it is disabled or not (if not specified, each option will be evaluated as to whether or not it contains a property of isDisabled with a value of true)
getFilterOptionString (option: any): string undefined When defined will take each option and generate a string used in the filtering process (by default, will use option.label)
themeConfig Partial<DefaultTheme> undefined Object that takes specified property key-value pairs and merges them into the theme object
