Topic: mdb-select-2 carrying values

Declan Ward priority asked 4 years ago


mdb-select-2 bound to a list of users

export interface user{
 name: string;
 options:  number[];

}

with values of:

  users = [
{ name: 'Jim', options: [1]},
{ name: 'Joe', options: [1,4]},
{ name: 'James', options: [1,3,5]},
{ name: 'Jake', options: [2,4,6]},
{ name: 'Jonathan', options: [2,3,5]},
{ name: 'Julius', options: [1,7,9]}

];

Expected behavior On selecting a user the correct options for the selected user should be checked in the list

Actual behavior Options from previous selection are not cleared from list. The result is a list showing a combination of options for multiple users.

For example; select 'Jim' and option 1 is checked. Then select 'Jake' and options 1,2,4,6 are displayed even though Jake does not have a value for option.

            </div>
        </form>
    </div>
</div>

Selected: {{selectedName}}

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { FormGroup, FormControl, Validators, FormBuilder } from '@angular/forms';
import { user } from '../models/user';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-multiselect',
  templateUrl: './multiselect.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./multiselect.component.scss']
})
export class MultiselectComponent {

  editForm:FormGroup;

  selectedUser:user;

  selectedName:string;
  selectedOptions: [] = [];

  options = [
    { value: 1, label: 'Selection 1' },
    { value: 2, label: 'Selection 2' },
    { value: 3, label: 'Selection 3' } ,
    { value: 4, label: 'Selection 4' },
    { value: 5, label: 'Selection 5' },
    { value: 6, label: 'Selection 6' },
    { value: 7, label: 'Selection 7' },
    { value: 8, label: 'Selection 8' },
    { value: 9, label: 'Selection 9' },
    { value: 10, label: 'Selection 10' },
    { value: 11, label: 'Selection 11' }
  ];

  users = [
    { name: 'Jim', options: [1]},
    { name: 'Joe', options: [1,4]},
    { name: 'James', options: [1,3,5]},
    { name: 'Jake', options: [2,4,6]},
    { name: 'Jonathan', options: [2,3,5]},
    { name: 'Julius', options: [1,7,9]}
  ];

  constructor(public fb: FormBuilder) { 

    this.editForm = this.fb.group({
      optionSelect: new FormControl(null,[])
    });
  }



  //get optionSelect() { return this.editForm.get('optionSelect'); };

  onSelect(u){
    console.log(u);
    this.selectedUser = u;
    this.selectedName = u.name;
    this.selectedOptions = u.options;
  }
  valueChanged(e){
    console.log('Changed:');
    console.log(e);
  }
}

The top box listing the selected values shows the correct selection. The dropdown list does not.
