how to use autocomplete in react ant design 5

In this tutorial, we will create autocomplete in react with ant design 5. First you need to setup react with ant design 5 project.


install & setup vite + react + typescript + ant design 5
1.Create a simple autocomplete in React using Ant Design 5's AutoComplete component and the useState hook.

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { AutoComplete } from 'antd';

const mockVal = (str: string, repeat = 1) => ({
  value: str.repeat(repeat),
});

const App: React.FC = () => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState('');
  const [options, setOptions] = useState<{ value: string }[]>([]);
  const [anotherOptions, setAnotherOptions] = useState<{ value: string }[]>([]);

  const getPanelValue = (searchText: string) =>
    !searchText ? [] : [mockVal(searchText), mockVal(searchText, 2), mockVal(searchText, 3)];

  const onSelect = (data: string) => {
    console.log('onSelect', data);
  };

  const onChange = (data: string) => {
    setValue(data);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <AutoComplete
        options={options}
        style={{ width: 200 }}
        onSelect={onSelect}
        onSearch={(text) => setOptions(getPanelValue(text))}
        placeholder="input here"
      />
      <br />
      <br />
      <AutoComplete
        value={value}
        options={anotherOptions}
        style={{ width: 200 }}
        onSelect={onSelect}
        onSearch={(text) => setAnotherOptions(getPanelValue(text))}
        onChange={onChange}
        placeholder="control mode"
      />
    </>
  );
};

export default App;
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

2.react ant design 5 search autocomplete with options property.

import React from 'react';
import { UserOutlined } from '@ant-design/icons';
import { AutoComplete, Input } from 'antd';

const renderTitle = (title: string) => (
  <span>
    {title}
    <a
      style={{ float: 'right' }}
      href="https://www.google.com/search?q=antd"
      target="_blank"
      rel="noopener noreferrer"
    >
      more
    </a>
  </span>
);

const renderItem = (title: string, count: number) => ({
  value: title,
  label: (
    <div
      style={{
        display: 'flex',
        justifyContent: 'space-between',
      }}
    >
      {title}
      <span>
        <UserOutlined /> {count}
      </span>
    </div>
  ),
});

const options = [
  {
    label: renderTitle('Libraries'),
    options: [renderItem('AntDesign', 10000), renderItem('AntDesign UI', 10600)],
  },
  {
    label: renderTitle('Solutions'),
    options: [renderItem('AntDesign UI FAQ', 60100), renderItem('AntDesign FAQ', 30010)],
  },
  {
    label: renderTitle('Articles'),
    options: [renderItem('AntDesign design language', 100000)],
  },
];

const App: React.FC = () => (
  <AutoComplete
    popupClassName="certain-category-search-dropdown"
    dropdownMatchSelectWidth={500}
    style={{ width: 250 }}
    options={options}
  >
    <Input.Search size="large" placeholder="input here" />
  </AutoComplete>
);

export default App;
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3.react typescript with ant design 5 search autocomplete.

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { AutoComplete, Input } from 'antd';
import type { SelectProps } from 'antd/es/select';

const getRandomInt = (max: number, min = 0) => Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;

const searchResult = (query: string) =>
  new Array(getRandomInt(5))
    .join('.')
    .split('.')
    .map((_, idx) => {
      const category = `${query}${idx}`;
      return {
        value: category,
        label: (
          <div
            style={{
              display: 'flex',
              justifyContent: 'space-between',
            }}
          >
            <span>
              Found {query} on{' '}
              <a
                href={`https://s.taobao.com/search?q=${query}`}
                target="_blank"
                rel="noopener noreferrer"
              >
                {category}
              </a>
            </span>
            <span>{getRandomInt(200, 100)} results</span>
          </div>
        ),
      };
    });

const App: React.FC = () => {
  const [options, setOptions] = useState<SelectProps<object>['options']>([]);

  const handleSearch = (value: string) => {
    setOptions(value ? searchResult(value) : []);
  };

  const onSelect = (value: string) => {
    console.log('onSelect', value);
  };

  return (
    <AutoComplete
      dropdownMatchSelectWidth={252}
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      options={options}
      onSelect={onSelect}
      onSearch={handleSearch}

    </AutoComplete>
  );
};

Tools like Page Speed Insights and Google Lighthouse are great for providing advice for front end performance issues. But what these tools can’t do, is evaluate performance across your entire stack of distributed services and applications.
