详细介绍
This is a component for Angular >= 4. Design and API are blandly inspired by Angular Material's md-chips. Formerly called ng2-tag-input.
Demo
Check out the live demo.
Getting Started
npm i ngx-chips // OR
yarn add ngx-chips
Notice: the latest version on NPM may not reflect the branch master
. Open an issue and tag me if you need it to be published.
Configuration
Ensure you import the module and the dependencies:
import { TagInputModule } from 'ngx-chips';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations'; // this is needed!
import { FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
@NgModule({
imports: [
TagInputModule,
BrowserAnimationsModule,
FormsModule,
ReactiveFormsModule
...OtherModules
] // along with your other modules
})
export class AppModule {}
API for TagInputComponent
Inputs
ngModel OR use FormGroup/formControlName (required)
ngModel
- [string[] | TagModel[]
] - Model of the component. Accepts an array of strings as input OR an array of objects.
If you do use an array of objects, make sure you:
- define two properties,
value
anddisplay
.Value
will uniquely identify the items,display
will be the value displayed. - or, in alternative, provide the keys using the inputs
identifyBy
anddisplayBy
Notice: the items provided to the model won't change, but the items added to the model will have the format { display, value }. If you do provide identifyBy
and displayBy
, these will be used as format for the user-entered tags.

API for TagInputDropdownComponent
TagInputDropdownComponent is a proxy between ngx-chips
and ng2-material-dropdown
.
autocompleteObservable
- [(text: string) => Observable<Response>
]
A function that takes a string (current input value) and returns an Observable (ex. http.get()
) with an array of items wit the same structure as autocompleteItems
(see below). Make sure you retain the scope of your class or function when using this property. It can be used to populate the autocomplete with items coming from an async request.
showDropdownIfEmpty
- [?boolean
]
If set to true
, the dropdown of the autocomplete will be shown as soon as the user focuses on the form
keepOpen
- [?boolean
]
To use in conjunction with showDropdownIfEmpty
. If set to false
, the dropdown will not reopen automatically after adding a new tag. (defaults to true
).
autocompleteItems
- [?string[] | AutoCompleteModel[]
]
An array of items to populate the autocomplete dropdown
offset
- [?string
]
Offset to adjust the position of the dropdown with absolute values (defaults to '50 0'
)
focusFirstElement
- [?boolean
]
If set to true
, the first item of the dropdown will be automatically focused (defaults to false
)
minimumTextLength
- [?number
]
Minimum text length in order to display the autocomplete dropdown (defaults to 1
)
limitItemsTo
- [?number
]
Number of items to display in the autocomplete dropdown
identifyBy
- [?string
]
Just like for tag-input
, this property defines the property of the value displayed of the object passed to the autocomplete
displayBy
- [?string
]
Just like for tag-input
, this property defines the property of the unique value of the object passed to the autocomplete
matchingFn
- [?matchingFn(value: string, target: TagModel): boolean
]
Use this property if you are not happy with the default matching and want to provide your own implementation. The first value is the value of the input text, the second value corresponds to the value of each autocomplete item passed to the component
appendToBody
- [?boolean
]
If set to false
, the dropdown will not be appended to the body, but will remain in its parent element. Useful when using the components inside popups or dropdowns. Defaults to true
.
dynamicUpdate
- [?boolean
]
If set to false
, the dropdown will not try to set the position according to its position in the page, but will be fixed. Defaults to true
.
zIndex
- [?number
]
Manually set the zIndex of the dropdown. Defaults to 100
.
The property autocompleteItems
can be an array of strings or objects. Interface for AutoCompleteModel
(just like TagModel)
is:
interface AutoCompleteModel {
value: any;
display: string;
}
The input text will be matched against both the properties.
More options to customise the dropdown will follow.
Basic Example
@Component({
selector: 'app',
template: `<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items'></tag-input>`
});
export class App {
items = ['Pizza', 'Pasta', 'Parmesan'];
}
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items'></tag-input>
Advanced usage
Using an array of objects
// itemsAsObjects = [{value: 0, display: 'Angular'}, {value: 1, display: 'React'}];
<tag-input [ngModel]="itemsAsObjects"></tag-input>
identifyBy
and displayBy
Using an array of with custom // itemsAsObjects = [{id: 0, name: 'Angular'}, {id: 1, name: 'React'}];
<tag-input [ngModel]="itemsAsObjects" [identifyBy]="'id'" [displayBy]="'name'"></tag-input>
Editable tags
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' [editable]='true' (onTagEdited)="onTagEdited($event)"></tag-input>
Static Tags (not removable)
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' [removable]='false'></tag-input>
Max number of items
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' [maxItems]='5'></tag-input>
If the value of the model will contain more tags than maxItems
, maxItems
will be replaced with the current size of the model.
Autocomplete
<tag-input [ngModel]="['@item']">
<tag-input-dropdown [autocompleteItems]="[{display: 'Item1', value: 0}, 'item2', 'item3']">
</tag-input-dropdown>
</tag-input>
This will accept items only from the autocomplete dropdown:
<tag-input [ngModel]="['@item']"
[onlyFromAutocomplete]="true">
<tag-input-dropdown [showDropdownIfEmpty]="true"
[autocompleteItems]="['iTem1', 'item2', 'item3']">
</tag-input-dropdown>
</tag-input>
Define a template for your menu items
<tag-input [ngModel]="['@item']"
[onlyFromAutocomplete]="true">
<tag-input-dropdown [showDropdownIfEmpty]="true"
[autocompleteItems]="['iTem1', 'item2', 'item3']">
<ng-template let-item="item" let-index="index">
{{ index }}: {{ item.display }}
</ng-template>
</tag-input-dropdown>
</tag-input>
Populate items using an Observable
public requestAutocompleteItems = (text: string): Observable<Response> => {
const url = `https://my.api.com/search?q=${text}`;
return this.http
.get(url)
.map(data => data.json());
};
<tag-input [ngModel]="['@item']">
<tag-input-dropdown [autocompleteObservable]='requestAutocompleteItems'></tag-input-dropdown>
</tag-input>
Additional keys to separate tags
If you want to use more keys to separate items, add them to separatorKeys as an array of keyboard key codes.
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' [separatorKeyCodes]="[32]"></tag-input>
Validation
Create some validation methods in your component:
class MyComponent {
private startsWithAt(control: FormControl) {
if (control.value.charAt(0) !== '@') {
return {
'startsWithAt@': true
};
}
return null;
}
private endsWith$(control: FormControl) {
if (control.value.charAt(control.value.length - 1) !== '$') {
return {
'endsWith$': true
};
}
return null;
}
public validators = [this.startsWithAt, this.endsWith$];
public errorMessages = {
'startsWithAt@': 'Your items need to start with "@"',
'endsWith$': 'Your items need to end with "$"'
};
}
Pass them to the tag-input component:
<tag-input [ngModel]="['@item']"
[errorMessages]="errorMessages"
[validators]="validators">
</tag-input>
Events
Set up some methods that will run when its relative event is fired.
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items'
(onBlur)="onInputBlurred($event)"
(onFocus)="onInputFocused($event)"
(onSelect)="onSelected($event)"
(onRemove)="onItemRemoved($event)"
(onTextChange)="onTextChange($event)"
(onAdd)="onItemAdded($event)">
</tag-input>
#### Readonly If readonly is passed to the tag-input, it won't be possible to select, add and remove items. [REMOVED]
<tag-input [ngModel]="['Javascript', 'Typescript']" [readonly]="true"></tag-input>
Custom items template
Define your own template, but remember to set up the needed events using the input
reference.
<tag-input [ngModel]="['@item']" [modelAsStrings]="true" #input>
<ng-template let-item="item" let-index="index"> <!-- DEFINE HERE YOUR TEMPLATE -->
<span>
<!-- YOU MAY ACTUALLY DISPLAY WHATEVER YOU WANT IF YOU PASS AN OBJECT AS ITEM -->
<!-- ex. item.myDisplayValue -->
item: {{ item }}
</span>
<delete-icon (click)="input.removeItem(item, index)"></delete-icon>
</ng-template>
</tag-input>
Add default values
If you use many instances of the component and want to set some values by default for all of them, import the module and use withDefaults
:
import { TagInputModule } from 'ngx-chips';
TagInputModule.withDefaults({
tagInput: {
placeholder: 'Add a new tag',
// add here other default values for tag-input
},
dropdown: {
displayBy: 'my-display-value',
// add here other default values for tag-input-dropdown
}
});
Built-in Themes
If you don't like how the default theme looks, or you just need it to fit in a different design, you can choose 4 new themes: bootstrap3-info
, bootstrap
, dark
and minimal
.
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' theme='bootstrap3-info'></tag-input>
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' theme='bootstrap'></tag-input>
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' theme='minimal'></tag-input>
<tag-input [(ngModel)]='items' theme='dark'></tag-input>
If you do not like these themes, define your own theme.
FAQ
Does it work with Angular Universal?
Yes.
Does it work with Angular's Ahead of time compilation (AOT)?
Yes.
Does it work with Ionic 2?
Yes.
What version does it support?
This component is supposed to work with the latest Angular versions.
If you have any issues, please do make sure you're not running a different version (or check this repo's package.json). Otherwise, please do open a new issue.
Can I change the style?
Yes - check out how to create custom themes.
Something's broken?
Please do open a new issue, but please check first that the same issue has not already been raised and that you are using the latest version :)
Please do not send private emails - Github Issues are supposed to help whoever might have your same issue, so it is the right place to help each other.
Issues not filled out with the provided templates are going to be closed. Please provide as much information as possible: do include a plunkr so that I can see what the problem is without having to replicate your environment on my laptop. The time I can spend on this is very limited.
No features requests will be considered, unless they are Pull Requests. I feel the component is already quite bloated, and I'd like on solving bugs and making this more reliable for everyone.
Contributing/Pull Requests
Contributions are highly welcome! No, there is no guideline on how to do it. Just make sure to lint and unit test your changes. We'll figure out the rest with a couple of messages...
