## Select

When there are plenty of options, use a drop-down menu to display and select desired ones.

### Basic usage

:::demo `v-model` is the value of `el-option` that is currently selected.

```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value" placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options: [{
          value: 'Option1',
          label: 'Option1'
        }, {
          value: 'Option2',
          label: 'Option2'
        }, {
          value: 'Option3',
          label: 'Option3'
        }, {
          value: 'Option4',
          label: 'Option4'
        }, {
          value: 'Option5',
          label: 'Option5'
        }],
        value: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Disabled option

:::demo Set the value of `disabled` in `el-option` to `true` to disable this option.

```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value2" placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options2"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value"
      :disabled="item.disabled">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options2: [{
          value: 'Option1',
          label: 'Option1'
        }, {
          value: 'Option2',
          label: 'Option2',
          disabled: true
        }, {
          value: 'Option3',
          label: 'Option3'
        }, {
          value: 'Option4',
          label: 'Option4'
        }, {
          value: 'Option5',
          label: 'Option5'
        }],
        value2: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Disabled select

Disable the whole component.

:::demo Set `disabled` of `el-select` to make it disabled.
```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value3" disabled placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options: [{
          value: 'Option1',
          label: 'Option1'
        }, {
          value: 'Option2',
          label: 'Option2'
        }, {
          value: 'Option3',
          label: 'Option3'
        }, {
          value: 'Option4',
          label: 'Option4'
        }, {
          value: 'Option5',
          label: 'Option5'
        }],
        value3: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Clearable single select

You can clear Select using a clear icon.

:::demo Set `clearable` attribute for `el-select` and a clear icon will appear. Note that `clearable` is only for single select.
```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value4" clearable placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options: [{
          value: 'Option1',
          label: 'Option1'
        }, {
          value: 'Option2',
          label: 'Option2'
        }, {
          value: 'Option3',
          label: 'Option3'
        }, {
          value: 'Option4',
          label: 'Option4'
        }, {
          value: 'Option5',
          label: 'Option5'
        }],
        value4: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Basic multiple select

Multiple select uses tags to display selected options.

:::demo Set `multiple` attribute for `el-select` to enable multiple mode. In this case, the value of `v-model` will be an array of selected options. By default the selected options will be displayed as Tags. You can collapse them to a text by using `collapse-tags` attribute.
```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value5" multiple placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
  
  <el-select
    v-model="value11"
    multiple
    collapse-tags
    style="margin-left: 20px;"
    placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options: [{
          value: 'Option1',
          label: 'Option1'
        }, {
          value: 'Option2',
          label: 'Option2'
        }, {
          value: 'Option3',
          label: 'Option3'
        }, {
          value: 'Option4',
          label: 'Option4'
        }, {
          value: 'Option5',
          label: 'Option5'
        }],
        value5: [],
        value11: []
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Custom template

You can customize HTML templates for options.

:::demo Insert customized HTML templates into the slot of `el-option`.

```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value6" placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in cities"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
      <span style="float: left">{{ item.label }}</span>
      <span style="float: right; color: #8492a6; font-size: 13px">{{ item.value }}</span>
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        cities: [{
          value: 'Beijing',
          label: 'Beijing'
        }, {
          value: 'Shanghai',
          label: 'Shanghai'
        }, {
          value: 'Nanjing',
          label: 'Nanjing'
        }, {
          value: 'Chengdu',
          label: 'Chengdu'
        }, {
          value: 'Shenzhen',
          label: 'Shenzhen'
        }, {
          value: 'Guangzhou',
          label: 'Guangzhou'
        }],
        value6: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Grouping

Display options in groups.

:::demo Use `el-option-group` to group the options, and its `label` attribute stands for the name of the group.

```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value7" placeholder="Select">
    <el-option-group
      v-for="group in options3"
      :key="group.label"
      :label="group.label">
      <el-option
        v-for="item in group.options"
        :key="item.value"
        :label="item.label"
        :value="item.value">
      </el-option>
    </el-option-group>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options3: [{
          label: 'Popular cities',
          options: [{
            value: 'Shanghai',
            label: 'Shanghai'
          }, {
            value: 'Beijing',
            label: 'Beijing'
          }]
        }, {
          label: 'City name',
          options: [{
            value: 'Chengdu',
            label: 'Chengdu'
          }, {
            value: 'Shenzhen',
            label: 'Shenzhen'
          }, {
            value: 'Guangzhou',
            label: 'Guangzhou'
          }, {
            value: 'Dalian',
            label: 'Dalian'
          }]
        }],
        value7: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Option filtering

You can filter options for your desired ones.

:::demo Adding `filterable` to `el-select` enables filtering. By default, Select will find all the options whose `label` attribute contains the input value. If you prefer other filtering strategies, you can pass the `filter-method`. `filter-method` is a `Function` that gets called when the input value changes, and its parameter is the current input value.
```html
<template>
  <el-select v-model="value8" filterable placeholder="Select">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options: [{
          value: 'Option1',
          label: 'Option1'
        }, {
          value: 'Option2',
          label: 'Option2'
        }, {
          value: 'Option3',
          label: 'Option3'
        }, {
          value: 'Option4',
          label: 'Option4'
        }, {
          value: 'Option5',
          label: 'Option5'
        }],
        value8: ''
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```
:::

### Remote Search

Enter keywords and search data from server.

:::demo Set the value of `filterable` and `remote` with `true` to enable remote search, and you should pass the `remote-method`. `remote-method` is a `Function` that gets called when the input value changes, and its parameter is the current input value. Note that if `el-option` is rendered with the `v-for` directive, you should add the `key` attribute for `el-option`. Its value needs to be unique, such as `item.value` in the following example.

```html
<template>
  <el-select
    v-model="value9"
    multiple
    filterable
    remote
    reserve-keyword
    placeholder="Please enter a keyword"
    :remote-method="remoteMethod"
    :loading="loading">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options4"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options4: [],
        value9: [],
        list: [],
        loading: false,
        states: ["Alabama", "Alaska", "Arizona",
        "Arkansas", "California", "Colorado",
        "Connecticut", "Delaware", "Florida",
        "Georgia", "Hawaii", "Idaho", "Illinois",
        "Indiana", "Iowa", "Kansas", "Kentucky",
        "Louisiana", "Maine", "Maryland",
        "Massachusetts", "Michigan", "Minnesota",
        "Mississippi", "Missouri", "Montana",
        "Nebraska", "Nevada", "New Hampshire",
        "New Jersey", "New Mexico", "New York",

        "Oklahoma", "Oregon", "Pennsylvania",
        "Rhode Island", "South Carolina",
        "South Dakota", "Tennessee", "Texas",
        "Utah", "Vermont", "Virginia",
        "Washington", "West Virginia", "Wisconsin",
        "Wyoming"]
      }
    },
    mounted() {
      this.list = this.states.map(item => {
        return { value: item, label: item };
      });
    },
    methods: {
      remoteMethod(query) {
        if (query !== '') {
          this.loading = true;
          setTimeout(() => {
            this.loading = false;
            this.options4 = this.list.filter(item => {
              return item.label.toLowerCase()
                .indexOf(query.toLowerCase()) > -1;
            });
          }, 200);
        } else {
          this.options4 = [];
        }
      }
    }
  }
</script>
```

### Create new items
Create and select new items that are not included in select options
:::demo By using the `allow-create` attribute, users can create new items by typing in the input box. Note that for `allow-create` to work, `filterable` must be `true`. This example also demonstrates `default-first-option`. When this attribute is set to `true`, you can select the first option in the current option list by hitting enter without having to navigate with mouse or arrow keys.
```html
<template>
  <el-select
    v-model="value10"
    multiple
    filterable
    allow-create
    default-first-option
    placeholder="Choose tags for your article">
    <el-option
      v-for="item in options5"
      :key="item.value"
      :label="item.label"
      :value="item.value">
    </el-option>
  </el-select>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        options5: [{
          value: 'HTML',
          label: 'HTML'
        }, {
          value: 'CSS',
          label: 'CSS'
        }, {
          value: 'JavaScript',
          label: 'JavaScript'
        }],
        value10: []
      }
    }
  }
</script>
