# chosen-remote-source
NPM Version
NPM Downloads

Provides remote data source support for [`chosen-js`](https://github.com/harvesthq/chosen) selects.

To make this library future proof we try not to change or add hardly any code to original chosen-js code.

# Install

#### Yarn or NPM
```
yarn add chosen-remote-source

npm install chosen-remote-source
```

# Usage
```javascript
$('select.chosen-remote-source').chosenRemoteSource({
url: "/my-path",
method: "GET",
delay: 250,
event: 'input',
label_field: 'label',
value_field: 'value',
search_param: 'q',
selected_param: 'selected',
});
```

Now upon entering text the remote URL will be used to create an AJAX query to update the select options.

The ajax request will send the following parameter names according to the specified `search_param` and `selected_param` options.

```
{q: 'foo', selected: [1,6,8]}
```

The plugins expects that your URL will return an array of objects with attribute names according to the specified `value_field` and `label_field` options.

```
[
{
value: "1",
label: "Foo",
},

{
value: "2",
label: "Bar",
},

/* ... */
]
```
