allow new values with chosen.js multiple select

2019-01-21 05:48发布

I'm using the chosen.js plugin http://harvesthq.github.com/chosen/ with jQuery to allow the user to select multiple options from a select. However, I now want to be able to let them create values that aren't already present - any idea how to go about this?

EDIT: something similar to SO's own tag selection/creation bar would be close to what I'm after

Preferably without changing or editing the plugin, but will do if required.

The code: HTML:

<p>Select something</p>
<select name="theSelect[]" multiple="multiple">
    <option value="First Option">First Option</option>
    <option value="Second Option">Second Option</option>
</select>

Javascript:

$(function(){
    $('select').chosen();
});

So if a user were to type in "Third Option", i'd like to add that to the list and have it selected. The value and display name are / will be the same so that's not a concern

I stumbled upon this looking for the same ideas. Seems like its a pretty popular feature request, and a couple of forks have implemented it. Looks like it'll be merged into the master branch soon enough.

+1 for this particular pull which worked a charm: https://github.com/harvesthq/chosen/pull/166

You can view Koenpunt's fork here: https://github.com/koenpunt/chosen

Here's a simple way that I did it:

$(".search-field").find("input").live( "keydown", function (evt) {
    var stroke;
    stroke = (_ref = evt.which) != null ? _ref : evt.keyCode;
    if (stroke == 9) { // 9 = tab key
        $('#tags').append('<option value="' + $(this).val() + '" selected="selected">' + $(this).val() + '</option>');
        $('#tags').trigger('chosen:updated');
    }
});

I know this not the answer, but, an alternate solution.

I was searching for the on-the-fly adding part and found that http://ivaynberg.github.com/select2/#tags provides the same thing as chosen + other stuffs like "Tagging".

Update of leogdion answer for multiple select (gist)

  $(".chosen-select-with-add-new").chosen({
    no_results_text: "Click Enter or Tab to add new option",
    width: '100%'
  }).parent().find('.chosen-container .search-field input[type=text]').keydown(function (evt) {
    // get keycode
    const stroke = evt.which != null ? evt.which : evt.keyCode;
    // If enter or tab key
    if (stroke === 9 || stroke === 13) {
      const target = $(evt.target);
      // get the list of current options
      const chosenList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-choices li.search-choice > span').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
      // get the list of matches from the existing drop-down
      const matchList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-results li').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
      // highlighted option
      const highlightedList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-results li.highlighted').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
      // Get the value which the user has typed in
      const newString = $.trim(target.val());
      // if the option does not exists, and the text doesn't exactly match an existing option, and there is not an option highlighted in the list

      if ($.inArray(newString, matchList) < 0 && $.inArray(newString,chosenList) < 0 && highlightedList.length == 0) {
        // Create a new option and add it to the list (but don't make it selected)
        const newOption = '<option value="' + newString + '" selected="selected">' + newString + '</option>';
        const choiceSelect = target.parents('.chosen-container').siblings('.chosen-select-with-add-new');
        choiceSelect.append(newOption);
        // trigger the update event
        choiceSelect.trigger("chosen:updated");
        // tell chosen to close the list box
        choiceSelect.trigger("chosen:close");
        return true;
      }
      // otherwise, just let the event bubble up
      return true;
    }
  })

Example usage on rails (slim)

  .tag-list
    label.control-label.h5 Tag list
    = select_tag :tag_list, options_for_select(ActsAsTaggableOn::Tag.order('taggings_count desc').pluck(:name), @publication.tags.map(&:name)), multiple: true, data: { placeholder: 'north, east, south, west' }, class: 'chosen-select-with-add-new'

An update to leogdion's answer which works with later versions of chosen:

        var dropDown = $('#select_chosen');
        // Make the chosen drop-down dynamic. If a given option is not in the list, the user can still add it
        dropDown.parent().find('.chosen-container .search-field input[type=text]').keydown( 
            function (evt) {
               var stroke, _ref, target, list;
               // get keycode
               stroke = (_ref = evt.which) != null ? _ref : evt.keyCode;
               // If enter or tab key
               if (stroke === 9 || stroke === 13) {
                   target = $(evt.target);               
                   // get the list of current options
                   chosenList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-choices li.search-choice > span').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
                   // get the list of matches from the existing drop-down
                   matchList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-results li').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
                   // highlighted option
                   highlightedList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-results li.highlighted').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
                   // Get the value which the user has typed in
                   var newString = $.trim(target.val());
                   // if the option does not exists, and the text doesn't exactly match an existing option, and there is not an option highlighted in the list
                   if ($.inArray(newString,matchList) < 0 && $.inArray(newString,chosenList) < 0 && highlightedList.length == 0) {
                     // Create a new option and add it to the list (but don't make it selected)
                     var newOption = '<option value="' + newString + '">' + newString + '</option>';
                     $("#select").prepend(newOption);
                     // trigger the update event
                     $("#select").trigger("chosen:updated");
                     // tell chosen to close the list box
                     $("#select").trigger("chosen:close");
                     return true;
                  } 
                  // otherwise, just let the event bubble up
                  return true;
               }
            }

I have updated the code from 3nochroot once more. Now I have only one selector to find the multiselect input.

$(document).ready(function() {
$(".js-choicelist").chosen({
    //config comes here
}).parent().find('.chosen-container .search-field input[type=text]').keydown(
    function (evt) {
        var stroke, _ref, target, list;
        // get keycode
        stroke = (_ref = evt.which) != null ? _ref : evt.keyCode;
        // If enter or tab key
        if (stroke === 9 || stroke === 13) {
            target = $(evt.target);
            // get the list of current options
            chosenList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-choices li.search-choice > span').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
            // get the list of matches from the existing drop-down
            matchList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-results li').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
            // highlighted option
            highlightedList = target.parents('.chosen-container').find('.chosen-results li.highlighted').map(function () { return $(this).text(); }).get();
            // Get the value which the user has typed in
            var newString = $.trim(target.val());
            // if the option does not exists, and the text doesn't exactly match an existing option, and there is not an option highlighted in the list
            if ($.inArray(newString,matchList) < 0 && $.inArray(newString,chosenList) < 0 && highlightedList.length == 0) {
                // Create a new option and add it to the list (but don't make it selected)
                var newOption = '<option value="' + newString + '">' + newString + '</option>';
                var choiceSelect = target.parents('.select-multiple').find('select');
                choiceSelect.prepend(newOption);
                // trigger the update event
                choiceSelect.trigger("chosen:updated");
                // tell chosen to close the list box
                choiceSelect.trigger("chosen:close");
                return true;
            }
            // otherwise, just let the event bubble up
            return true;
        }
    }
)

})
