Help needed

I don't use this library much anymore and don't have time to properly maintain it. If you are currently using ng2-completer and interested to maintain it please let me know!

Installation

npm install ng2-completer --save

Usage

The module you want to use ng2-completer in must import Ng2CompleterModule and FormsModule (to use the ngModel directive on ng2-completer). Ng2CompleterModule provides the CompleterService, and declares the ng2-completer directive.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { FormsModule } from "@angular/forms";
import { HttpClientModule } from "@angular/common/http";
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { Ng2CompleterModule } from "ng2-completer";


@NgModule({
  imports: [
      BrowserModule,
      FormsModule,
      HttpClientModule,
      Ng2CompleterModule,
  ],
  declarations: [ AppComponent ],
  bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule { }

Add ng2-completer to your component and create a data source:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CompleterService, CompleterData } from 'ng2-completer';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-component',
  template: `<h1>Search color</h1>
            <ng2-completer [(ngModel)]="searchStr" [datasource]="dataService" [minSearchLength]="0"></ng2-completer>
            <h1>Search captain</h1>
            <ng2-completer [(ngModel)]="captain" [datasource]="captains" [minSearchLength]="0"></ng2-completer>`
})
export class MyComponent {

  protected searchStr: string;
  protected captain: string;
  protected dataService: CompleterData;
  protected searchData = [
    { color: 'red', value: '#f00' },
    { color: 'green', value: '#0f0' },
    { color: 'blue', value: '#00f' },
    { color: 'cyan', value: '#0ff' },
    { color: 'magenta', value: '#f0f' },
    { color: 'yellow', value: '#ff0' },
    { color: 'black', value: '#000' }
  ];
  protected captains = ['James T. Kirk', 'Benjamin Sisko', 'Jean-Luc Picard', 'Spock', 'Jonathan Archer', 'Hikaru Sulu', 'Christopher Pike', 'Rachel Garrett' ];

  constructor(private completerService: CompleterService) {
    this.dataService = completerService.local(this.searchData, 'color', 'color');
  }
}

ng2-completer uses rxjs stream as data sources. There are 2 ready made data sources that can be used to fetch local and remote data but it's also possible to provide a custom source that generates a stream of items.

   var map = {
       ...

   }
