Select
Vue Bootstrap 5 Select
Vue Select fields components are used for collecting user provided information from a list of options.
Note: Read the API tab to find all available options and advanced customization
Basic example
Select options are added using v-model with the
options argument. You can get selected values in two ways. The first is to filter
the data given in v-model:options by a selected key. The second
method is to use v-model:selected which is read-only and stores the currently
selected options as a string (single select) or as an array (multiple select).
Basic select behaves like a native one and by default marks the first available option as
selected. To change this setting, easily set the
preselect property to false.
<template>
<MDBSelect v-model:options="options1" v-model:selected="selected1" />
</template>
<script>
import { MDBSelect } from "mdb-vue-ui-kit";

export default {
components: {
MDBSelect
},
setup() {
const options1 = ref([
{ text: "One", value: 1 },
{ text: "Two", value: 2 },
{ text: "Three", value: 3 },
{ text: "Four", value: 4 },
{ text: "Five", value: 5 },
{ text: "Six", value: 6 },
{ text: "Seven", value: 7 },
{ text: "Eight", value: 8 }
]);
const selected1 = ref("");
return {
options1,
selected1
};
}
};
</script>
<script setup lang="ts">
import { MDBSelect } from "mdb-vue-ui-kit";

Validation
Set isValidated and isValid properties to enable component
validation. The validFeedback and invalidFeedback options allow to
modify the validation messages. Validate method can be set on select's
change
event.
<template>
