Awesomplete ES6 Module

https://gintsmurans.github.io/awesomplete-es6/

Awesomplete is an ultra lightweight, customizable, simple autocomplete widget with zero dependencies, built with modern standards for modern browsers.

Installation

There are a few ways to obtain the needed files. Here are 2 of them:

npm install awesomplete-es6 --save

More information about the npm package can be found here.

Basic Usage

<input class="test-field"
       data-list="Ada, Java, JavaScript, Brainfuck, LOLCODE, Node.js, Ruby on Rails" />

import Awesomplete from 'awesomplete-es6';
const settings = {
    minChars: 1,
    autoFirst: true,
    data: (item) => {
        const title = item.title;
        return { label: title, userData: item };
    },
};
const awesomplete = new Awesomplete($('.test-field')[0], settings);

There are many ways to link an input to a list of suggestions. The simple example above could have also been made with the following markup, which provides a nice native fallback in case the script doesn’t load:

<input class="test-field" list="mylist" />
<datalist id="mylist">
    <option>Ada</option>
    <option>Java</option>
    <option>JavaScript</option>
    <option>Brainfuck</option>
    <option>LOLCODE</option>
    <option>Node.js</option>
    <option>Ruby on Rails</option>
</datalist>

Or the following, if you don’t want to use a <datalist>, or if you don’t want to use IDs (since any selector will work in data-list):

<input class="test-field" data-list="#mylist" />
<ul id="mylist">
    <li>Ada</li>
    <li>Java</li>
    <li>JavaScript</li>
    <li>Brainfuck</li>
    <li>LOLCODE</li>
    <li>Node.js</li>
    <li>Ruby on Rails</li>
</ul>

There are multiple customizations and properties able to be instantiated within the JS. Libraries and definitions of the properties are available in the Links below.
