## Installation

With [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ngx-choices):

```zsh
npm install ngx-choices.js
```

With [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/):

```zsh
yarn add ngx-choices.js
```

### Stylesheet

To style your choices you can either use the original stylesheet from `choices.js`
or the one from this repository. Both are equivalent, but this one has a shorter path :^)

With `angular.json`:

```json
"architect": {
"build": {
...,
"styles": [
"node-modules/ngx-choices/styles/ngx-choices.scss"
],
...,
}
}
```

With `scss`:

```scss
@import "node_modules/ngx-choices/styles/ngx-choices";
```

## Usage

Include the `NgxChoicesModule` in your `AppModule`. This will use the default configuration as described
in the [choices.js documentation](https://github.com/Choices-js/Choices#configuration-options).

```ts
@NgModule({
declarations: [AppComponent],
imports: [BrowserModule, NgxChoicesModule],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}
```

To configure the library globally use the `forRoot` pattern.
This will override the defaults as described in the [choices.js documentation](https://github.com/Choices-js/Choices#configuration-options).

```ts
@NgModule({
declarations: [AppComponent],
imports: [
BrowserModule,
NgxChoicesModule.forRoot({
allowHTML: true,
}),
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}
```

> If you want to silence the warning from `choices.js` about allowHTML, set it globally as shown above to either true or false.

### Instantiate Component

To create a `text` input:

```html

```

To create a `single-choice` input:

```html

```

To create a `multiple-choice` input:

```html

```

### Customization & Updates

To customize a single `ngx-choice` bind the wanted input to the directive.
Doing so overrides the default configuration of `choices.js` and the ones given by the `forRoot` pattern. In the following example we add an icon to all options using the `removeItemButton` input.

```html

```

For the example above create a property `choices` on the component containing all possible choices.

```ts
public choices = [
{
value: 'Option 1',
label: 'Option 1',
selected: true,
disabled: false,
},
{
value: 'Option 2',
label: 'Option 2',
selected: false,
disabled: false,
customProperties: {
description: 'Custom description about Option 2',
random: 'Another random custom property',
},
},
];
```

To receive events from the component subscribe to them in the usual angular way:

```html

```

To find a list of all possible inputs and outputs see the official documentation from [`choices.js`](https://github.com/Choices-js/Choices#configuration-options).

### Forms

To bind the directive to an angular form add the `[formControl]` property, just like with a native form component.

```html

```

And add the control property to the component.

```ts
public control = new FormControl('Option 2');
```
