Topic: Cannot initialize Select by API when module is loaded individually
root-nine priority asked 2 years ago
Expected behavior In order to reduce the amount of loaded resources I´m only loading the following scripts:
/js/free/mdb.min.js
/js/modules/select.min.js
The select is working correctly when it is initialized automatically on page load. I´m also loading HTML via AJAX and then I need to initialize the selects manually by API. Sample:
const mySelect = new mdb.Select(document.getElementById('mySelect'), options)
Is it possible to use a reduced set of components in this way?
Actual behavior
The following error is shown in the browser console:
mdb.Select is not a constructor
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
When I load the full mdb.min.js (PRO version) I´m able to initialize the select via API. When loading just the free mdb.min.js and the module select.min.js I can see that the mdb-object is missing the "Select" class. Only the components of the free version can be accessed.

Hi,
If you use something as a module, it won't be available in mdb
object. You should call it just by its name. In this case try using Select
instead of mdb.Select
.
Keep coding,

Thank you, it´s woking. One small correction: The class select (without the mdb object) is starting with a lowercase s.
