THIS REPO HAS BEEN UPGRADED TO AN EMBER-CLI ADDON

ember-autosuggest

This component will auto-complete or auto-suggest completed search queries for you as you type.

There is very basic keyboard navigation using the up and down keys to scroll up and down the results and enter adds the selection, while hitting escape hides the autocomplete menu.

Built against Ember 1.4.0 and Ember-Data beta 1.0.0-beta.7+canary

Usage

Declared in a template using the new Ember component syntax.

{{auto-suggest source=controller destination=tags}}

• Specify a source binding that displays a list of selections to choose from.
• Specity a destination binding that your selections will be bound to.

Arguments

• searchPath - Specify the property for each object in the source list that will be used to auto suggest, the default is name.

{{auto-suggest source=controller destination=tags searchPath=make}}

• minChars - Specify how many characters the user must enter into the input before the search is triggered, the default is 1.

{{auto-suggest source=controller destination=tags minChars=0}}

Customise Suggestions and Results

• You can prepend content to the suggestions and the results by using the component in its block form:

```
    {{#auto-suggest source=controller.employees destination=tags searchPath="fullName" minChars=0 as |selection|}}
      
    {{/auto-suggest}}
```

• The above declaration will result in the following markup:

Query an Ember-Data model

{{auto-suggest source=App.Employee destination=tags searchPath="fullName" minChars=0}}

This will call findQuery with an expression created from the searchPath. In the above example, that would be:

store.find('employee', {fullName: '<query>'});
