typeAhead

fun RenderContext.typeAhead(styling: BasicParams.() -> Unit = {}, value: Store<String>? = null, items: Proposal, baseClass: StyleClass = StyleClass.None, id: String? = value?.id, prefix: String = "typeAhead", build: TypeAheadComponent.() -> Unit = {}): Input

The typeAhead factory function creates a TypeAheadComponent.

It offers the possibility to input some String and get some list of proposals to choose from. Internally this is achieved by adding some datalist to the input field.

The typical (and minimal) usage might look like this:

val proposals = listOf("Kotlin", "Scala", "Java", "OCaml", "Haskell").asProposals()
val choice = storeOf("")
typeAhead(value = choice, items = proposals) { }
