# svelte-search

[![NPM][npm]][npm-url]

> Accessible, customizable Svelte search component.

This search component is composed using semantic `form` and `input` elements.

See [svelte-typeahead](https://github.com/metonym/svelte-typeahead) for a search component with dropdown results.

Try it in the [Svelte REPL](https://svelte.dev/playground/5e14a2cff1b9488fa4ffbff980c1f21d).

---

## Installation

```bash
# npm
npm i svelte-search

# pnpm
pnpm i svelte-search

# Yarn
yarn add svelte-search

# Bun
bun add svelte-search
```

## Styling

This component is unstyled by design. Target the component using the `[data-svelte-search]` selector.

```css
:global([data-svelte-search] input) {
  width: 100%;
  font-size: 1rem;
  padding: 0.5rem;
  margin: 0.5rem 0;
  border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;
  border-radius: 0.25rem;
}
```

## Usage

### Two-way binding

```svelte
<script>
  import Search from "svelte-search";

let value = "";
</script>

{#if value}
  <button on:click={() => (value = "")}>Clear "{value}"</button>
{/if}
```

### on:submit

The `input` element is contained in a `form`. Use the forwarded `submit` event to obtain the value when pressing "Enter."

```svelte
<Search bind:value on:submit={() => console.log("submit", value)} />
```

### Label with placeholder text

`$$restProps` are forwarded to the input element.

```svelte
<Search label="My label" placeholder="Placeholder text..." />
```

### Label slot

```svelte
<Search>
  <span slot="label" style="color: red;">Custom label</span>
</Search>
```

### Visually hidden label

Set `hideLabel` to `true` to visually hide the label.

```svelte
<Search hideLabel label="My label" placeholder="Placeholder text..." />
```

### Focus (declarative)

Use the `autofocus` prop to declaratively focus the input.

```svelte no-eval
<Search autofocus />
```

### Focus (programmatic)

Bind the `ref` prop to programmatically focus the input.

```svelte
<script>
  import Search from "svelte-search";

let ref = null;
</script>

<button on:click={() => ref.focus()}>Focus</button>
```

### Debounced input

Use the `debounce` prop to specify the debounce value in milliseconds.

If clearing the value, both the `on:type` and `on:clear` events will immediately be dispatched.

```svelte
<script>
  import Search from "svelte-search";

let events = [];
</script>

<Search
  debounce={800}
  on:type={({ detail: value }) => (events = [...events, value])}
/>

<pre>{JSON.stringify(events, null, 2)}</pre>
```

## API

`$$restProps` are forwarded to the input element.

### Props

### Forwarded events

- on:input
- on:change
- on:submit
- on:focus
- on:blur
- on:keydown

### Dispatched events

- **on:type**: fired when the the input value is updated
- **on:clear**: fired when clicking the "X" button to clear the input value

```svelte
<Search
  on:type={(e) => {
    console.log("type", e.detail); // input value
  }}
  on:clear={() => {
    console.log("clear");
  }}
/>
```
