Zepto Autocomplete plugin is a micro js library (few KBs) that allows ZeptoJS users to easily plugin 'autocomplete' functionality to their text boxes, by adding a class and initializing the plugin on page load.
Datasource for the autocomplete can be a local javascript Array object or a remote GET request returning a JSON array. The text limit is customizable and all values can be passed on initialization. Styling for the results, can be customized by importing 3 styles.
# HTML file containing the required DOM elements.
# `autocomplete-input` and `autocomplete-result` are the 2 expected styles for input and output respectively.
<input type="text" class="autocomplete-input">
<div class="autocomplete-result"></div># Initialize in javascript on page load with options.
# Below example is for "Local Datastore"
$(document).ready(function () {
var autocompleteData = ["madras","london", "paris", "stockholm", "delhi", "madrid", "madurai"];
var localOptions = {limit: 2, datasource: 'local', data: autocompleteData};
$.fn.autocomplete(localOptions);
...
...
}# Below example is for "Remote Datastore", URL
$(document).ready(function () {
var remoteOptions = {limit: 2, datasource: 'remote', data: 'example.json?keyword='};
$.fn.autocomplete(remoteOptions);
...
...
}- Example folder contains a complete working html,js and css.
# Set caseSensitive to false to enable case-insensitive matching
# Leave this option off to use the default case-sensitive matching
$(document).ready(function () {
var remoteOptions = {limit: 2, datasource: 'remote', data: 'example.json?keyword=', caseSensitive: false};
$.fn.autocomplete(remoteOptions);
...
...
}# Set 'show' and 'hide' options if you want to override the default $.show() and $.hide() actions
# on the .autocomplete-result container.
var options = {
limit: 2,
datasource: 'remote',
data: 'example.json?keyword=',
show: function(){ ... },
hide: function(){ ... }
};
There are no hard dependencies. Running an npm install will install the libraries required.
