Props

Prop	Default	Description
`appendTo`	`null`	Specify the CSS selector of the container element to attach the dropdown element.
`direction`	"auto"	Specify which direction should the dropdown open. Valid values are "auto", "up" or "down". If "auto" is selected, then it will determine the direction based on the viewport.
`disabled`	`false`	Specify if the dropdown is disabled.
`dropdownHeight`	`null`	Specify the height of the dropdown element. An alternative way to specify the dropdown height is to use `itemHeight` + `maxItems`. If `dropdownHeight` is specified, then `itemHeight` and `maxItems` values are ignored. "px", "rem" and "em" values are accepted.
`htmlId`	`null`	Specify the id of the underlying `input` element.
`itemHeight`	"3rem"	Specify the height of each dropdown item. This prop in conjunction with `maxItems` determines the dropdown height. You may also set the dropdown height directly using the `dropdownHeight` prop. "px", "rem" and "em" values are accepted.
`maxItems`	`5`	Specify the maximum number of dropdown items.
`optionKeyFn`	`(option) => option.label`	Function to return a unique identifier of a dropdown item (for optimization purpose).
`options`	`[]`	Specify the available options. e.g. `[{ label: 'Item 1', value: 1 }, { label: 'Item 2', value: 2, disabled: true }]`
`placeholder`	`null`	Specify the placeholder text when no option is selected.
`searchFn`	`null`	Override the default search function.
`searchable`	`false`	Specify if the dropdown is searchable.
`showChevron`	`true`	Specify if the chevron is shown.
`showEmptyResults`	`true`	Specify if a placeholder is shown if there are no options available.
`value`	`null`	Specify the current value.
`valueFormatterFn`	`null`	Function to return the string value shown in the selector if an option is selected. By default this is the option `label`.
`yOffset`	`1rem`	Specify the vertical offset between the dropdown and selector elements. "px", "rem" and "em" values are accepted.
