@mitchbne/react-listbox NPM

React Listbox is a context driven component system that allows developers to create a Listbox built with React.

Personally, I use a CSS framework called TailwindCSS created by the team at TailwindLabs. Tailwind CSS is a highly customizable, low-level CSS framework that gives you all of the building blocks you need to build bespoke designs without any annoying opinionated styles you have to fight to override.

Recently the developers at TailwindLabs implemented a Listbox component API (just like this one) built for Vue developers. They promised that they would begin working on a React implementation of the Listbox soon, but I couldn't wait. In the meantime I've created this solution, maybe it will help you too.

Made with love ❤️

Note: This solution comes completely unstyled. You will need to style it yourself.

Getting Started

This package is meant to work alongisde any React application. Simply add the package to your list of dependencies, and make awesome projects 😎.

yarn add @mitchbne/react-listbox

To Do

Create a JSX replication of TailwindLab's Vue Listbox solution.
Add Typescript support for components.
Turn the components into an installable library.
Home (key) moves the focus and activeItem to the first option.
End (key) moves the focus and activeItem to the last option.
Selects/focus the first selected option when opened (if activeItem == null)
Create a multi-select solution.
- Multi selects focus the first selected option when opened
- Shift + Down Arrow: Moves focus to and toggles the selected state of the next option.
- Shift + Up Arrow: Moves focus to and toggles the selected state of the previous option.
- Shift + Space: Selects contiguous items from the most recently selected item to the focused item.
- Control + Shift + Home: Selects the focused option and all options up to the first option. Optionally, moves focus to the first option.
- Control + Shift + End: Selects the focused option and all options down to the last option. Optionally, moves focus to the last option.
- Control + A: Selects all options in the list. Optionally, if all options are selected, it may also unselect all options.
Add support for the ListboxList component to be a React Portal.
Handle disabled ListboxOption
Create an input-filter solution.

Basic Example

import React, { useState, Fragment } from "react"
import { Listbox, ListboxLabel, ListboxButton, ListboxList, ListboxOption } from "@mitchbne/react-listbox"

export const SelectMenu = () => {
  const [selectedOption, setSelectedOption] = useState("Option 1")
  const options = [
    "Option 1",
    "Option 2",
    "Option 3",
  ]

  return (
    <Listbox onChange={setSelectedOption} value={selectedOption}>
        <Fragment>
          <ListboxLabel>
            Select an option:
          </ListboxLabel>
          <ListboxButton>
              { selectedOption ? selectedOption : "Select an option" }
          </ListboxButton>
            <ListboxList>
              { options.map(option => (
                <ListboxOption key={option} value={option}> {option} </ListboxOption>
              ))}
            </ListboxList>
          )}
        </Fragment>
      )}
    </Listbox>
  )
}
