Preview of multi.js

Installation

Install with npm:

npm install --save multi.js

Install with yarn:

yarn add multi.js

Install manually by cloning or downloading the repository to your project and including both files in the dist directory.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="multijs/dist/multi.min.css">
<script src="multijs/dist/multi.min.js"></script>

Usage

multi.js can be applied to any select element with the multiple attribute enabled.

var select_element = document.getElementById( 'your_select_element' );
multi( select_element );

To customize multi a few options can be passed with the function call. Below are all the default values.

multi( select_element, {
    'enable_search': true,
    'search_placeholder': 'Search...',
    'non_selected_header': null,
    'selected_header': null
});

Column headers

To add headers to both columns set values for these options:

multi( select_element, {
    'non_selected_header': 'All options',
    'selected_header': 'Selected options'
});

jQuery

multi.js is fully native Javascript but also has jQuery support. If you have jQuery included multi can be applied to a select element as follows:

$( '#your_select_element' ).multi();

TODO

  • Native Javascript, no jQuery
  • Support for disabled options
  • Support for optgroups
  • Browser testing
  • Support for retrieving options by AJAX
  • Tests

Try to mimic the general programming style (mostly based on personal preferences) and keep any CSS as simple as possible. Build the project with Grunt and bump the version number before creating a pull request.
