FEAT Customization of the input field (type, autocomplete)
Why?
- The browser can autofill the input field with non-relevant suggestions (e.g. an address suggestion).

-
On a mobile device, the default keyboard is displayed whereas we could want a number one or an email keyboard (see #68 ).
-
At least one dev wants to hide the input field when
maxTagsis reached #115 .
Possible solutions
Sol#1 — Add props to set HTML attributes of the input field
autocomplete: with a random value, we could disable the browser autofill feature.type: 'email', 'number' according to the HTML specs.- ...all other useful props
Sol#2 — Add a slot to override the default input field
Full-control for the developer.
Preferred solution
For me Sol#2 is the better choice. It brings freedom to the developer.
@JohMun I would like your opinion before coding a PR. Are you still maintain this package? Do you need some help?
Sol#3 (partial solution)
Since v-bind="$attrs" is passed to the input component, attributes different than class, style, type or size can simply be passed to vue-tags-input:
https://github.com/JohMun/vue-tags-input/blob/32b8f552eaf2eb477b2c97d69a0af5b7ddcb94fc/vue-tags-input/vue-tags-input.vue#L122-L145
Example:
<vue-tags-input
[...]
:autocomplete="new Date().getTime()"
/>
will disable the browser autofill feature.
Drawbacks
The attribute type cannot be overriden.
