Use

This component is used as a base to create your own autocomplete. For example, If I need to create an autocomplete for originProcesso, I would create my component originProcessoAutocomplete, like this:

<template>
  <div>
    <VueSimpleAutocomplete
      :items="originsProcess"
      :selected-item="originProcesso"
      @change="searchOrigins"
      @value-selected="onOriginSelected"
      :is-loading="loadingOrigins"
      :get-display-value="displayOrigin"
      :min-length="2"
      placeholder="Type to search"
    ></VueSimpleAutocomplete>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import originProcessApi from "../../services/api/originProcessApi";
import VueSimpleAutocomplete from "vue-simple-autocomplete";

export default {
  name: "originProcessoAutocomplete",
  components: {
    VueSimpleAutocomplete,
  },
  model: {
    prop: "originProcesso",
    event: "change",
  },
  props: {
    originProcesso: Object,
  },
  data() {
    return {
      originsProcess: [],
      loadingOrigins: false,
    };
  },
  created() {
    this.originProcessApi = new originProcessApi();
  },
  methods: {
    async searchOrigins(name) {
      try {
        this.originsProcess = [];
        this.$emit("change", {});

        if (name == null || name.length === 0) {
          return;
        }
        this.loadingOrigins = true;
        this.originsProcess = await this.originProcessApi.getOriginProcessAutocomplete(
          name
        );
        this.loadingOrigins = false;
      } catch (err) {
        this.loadingOrigins = false;
      }
    },
    onOriginSelected(origin) {
      this.$emit("change", origin);
    },
    displayOrigin(origin) {
      if (origin && origin !== "" && origin.name) {
        return origin.name;
      }

      return "";
    },
  },
};
</script>

<style lang="scss" scoped></style>
