Angular Selector

Features

No-jQuery Required Angular Selector is a full native Angular directive, so you can use it without have to include any other library (except AngularJS, of course!).
Skinnable You can define a template for the items in the dropdown list and a template for selected items.
RTL Support To use it in with any kind of text direction.
Remote Resource Loading Fetch your data from an external source and use it in your application.
From HTML <option> to JS object Fill your <select> from server-side ad use data-attributes for every option you have, then Angular Selector performs for you the conversion to a simple array of objects.
Custom Option Creation You can create new options and add them to the list, just by hitting Enter.
Keyboard support Move up and down the dropdown list using keyboard arrows. Select highlighted item pressing Enter. Remove last selected item with Del key.
Responsive Perfect for use in mobile environments.

Examples

Look at these.

Options

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
model	`Property`		Two-way binding property that models the `select` view.
name	`String`		Input name attribute.
disable	`Boolean`	`false`	Enable/disable the select. Note the name is `disable` not `disabled` to avoid collisions with the HTML5 disabled attribute.
disableSearch	`Boolean`	`false`	Enable/disable the search input field.
require	`Boolean`	`false`	Sets required validation. Note the name is `require` not `required` to avoid collisions with the HTML5 required attribute.
multi	`Boolean`	`false`	Allows to select more than one value. Note the name is `multi` not `multiple` to avoid collisions with the HTML5 multiple attribute.
limit	`Integer`	`Infinity`	Maximum number of selectable items when `multi` is `true`.
placeholder	`String`		Optional placeholder text to display if input is empty.
options	`Array`	`[]`	Set of options to display.Each object must contain a `label` key and a `value` key, otherwise you need to use a custom template (`viewItemTemplate` and `dropdownItemTemplate`) or change the default values of `valueAttr` and `labelAttr` properties.
valueAttr	`String`	`null`	Name of the value key in options array. This also sets the type of result for the model: if you don't set this attribute (`null` by default) the entire object option is returned, otherwise it will be returned only the selected property.
labelAttr	`String`	`"label"`	Name of the label key in options array.
groupAttr	`String`	`"group"`	Name of the `optgroup` label key in options array. It allows to group items by the selected key. Items have to be already sorted to see the groups just one time.
debounce	`Integer`	`0`	Debounce model update value in milliseconds.
rtl	`Boolean`	`false`	Two-way bindable attribute to set Right-To-Left text direction.
api	`Object`	`{}`	This object is equipped with the methods for interacting with the selector. Check out the "APIs" example.
create	`Boolean` or `Function` or `Promise`		Allows users to type the label of their own options and push them into the list. You can pass a function that returns the full format of the option, using `input` as parameter, a `Promise`, or set it to `true` to let Angular Selector create an object with the default properties given by `valueAttr` and `labelAttr`. Check out "Create custom options" and "Create custom options (using `Promise`)" examples.
change	`Function`		Callback fired every time the selected values change. It provides two parameters: `newValue` and `oldValue`.
remote	`Object` or `Promise`	{ method: 'GET', cache: true, params: {}}	You can use remote data fetching with the native `$http` service or with your own custom service. In the first case this parameter must be the configuration object to pass to the native `$http` service (docs). In the second case, `remote` is a function that returns a Promise object.
remoteParam	`String`	`"q"`	If `remote` attribute is used with the native `$http` service, this parameter is the name of the query key in the `params` object. You should use this to perform server-side filtering.
remoteValidation	`Object` or `Promise`	{ method: 'GET', cache: true, params: {}}	This should be used to perform validation after a "manual" update of the model. It has the same structure of the `remote` property, check out "Remote fetching and validation" example.
remoteValidationParam	`String`	`"value"`	If `remoteValidation` attribute is used with the native `$http` service, this parameter is the name of the query key in the `params` object.
removeButton	`Boolean`	`true`	Two-way bindable attribute to show the remove button (cross icon).
softDelete	`Boolean`	`false`	If `disableSearch` is `false`, restores the last selected input text (using `labelAttr` attribute) after pressing Backspace.
closeAfterSelection	`Boolean`	`false`	Close dropdown after selecting an item.
viewItemTemplate	`String`	`"selector/item-default.html"`	Template URL for the selected item(s).
dropdownItemTemplate	`String`	`"selector/item-default.html"`	Template URL for each item in the dropdown list.
dropdownCreateTemplate	`String`	`"selector/item-create.html"`	Template URL for the dropdown element for the new items.
dropdownGroupTemplate	`String`	`"selector/group-default.html"`	Template URL for each group (header) in the dropdown list.
