Select Picker is jQuery plugin for multiselect tag-like picker.
Extensive documentation, with examples can be found on picker.adam-uhlir.me.
To include Select Picker directly to your project, download its files from https://github.com/AuHau/select-picker/archive/master.zip and include them as follow:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/file/picker.min.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/file/picker.min.js"></script>Select Picker is registered in Bower register, therefore you can use it as dependency:
bower install select-picker --save
Select Picker is also registered in npm register, therefore you can use it as dependency:
npm install select-picker --save
Basic Picker mimic standard select box. It will loads first option as selected one,
therefore if you want to have a placeholder in your Picker use the first option as placeholder.
Picker also supports hidden attribute, therefore if you don't want to have
placeholder in the list of options, use it with your placeholder option.
<select name="basic" id="ex-basic">
<option value="" disabled hidden>Select value</option>
<option value="1">Nice</option>
<option value="2">Very nice</option>
<option value="3">Awesome</option>
<option value="4">Godlike</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#ex-basic').picker();
</script>Main purpose why Picker was developed was for tags selection. You can enable this
feature really easily. Picker is smart enough to detects presence of multiple
attribute with select tag and base on this presence enables multiple selection.
Of course you can always override this in options when initializing Picker.
<select name="basic" id="ex-search" multiple>
<option value="1">Shanghai</option>
<option value="2">Karachi</option>
<option value="3">Beijing</option>
<option value="4">Tianjin</option>
<option value="5">Istanbul</option>
<option value="6">Lagos</option>
<option value="7">Tokyo</option>
<option value="8">Guangzhou</option>
<option value="9">Mumbai</option>
<option value="10">Moscow</option>
<option value="11">Dhaka</option>
<option value="12">Cairo</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#ex-search').picker();
</script>More examples and documentation can be found on picker.adam-uhlir.me.
If you would like to contribute, you are very much welcome! Just please always write test coverage and properly document your changes in documentation.
Currently for tests I am using Karma + Jasmine. To run the tests, first install dependencies with npm install and
then to simply run npm test. This will run test in headless browser (PhantomJS). You can run the tests in Chrome
using npm run test-chrome or if you need to debug your test npm run test-debug.
