This kit's options prop requires an array of objects, each of which will be used as the selectable options within the dropdown. Each option object can support any number of key-value pairs, but each must contain label and value.

<% 
  options = [
    { label: 'United States', value: 'United States', id: 'us' },
    { label: 'Canada', value: 'Canada', id: 'ca' },
    { label: 'Pakistan', value: 'Pakistan', id: 'pk' },
  ]

%>

<%= pb_rails("dropdown", props: {options: options}) %>

Subtle Variant

Select...

United States

Pakistan

For the subtle variant, it is recommended that you set the Separators prop to false to remove the separator lines between the options for a more cleaner look.

<% 
  options = [
    { label: 'United States', value: 'United States', id: 'us' },
    { label: 'Canada', value: 'Canada', id: 'ca' },
    { label: 'Pakistan', value: 'Pakistan', id: 'pk' },
  ]

%>

<%= pb_rails("dropdown", props: { options: options, variant: "subtle", separators: false }) %>

Subcomponent Structure

Select...

United States

Canada

Pakistan

The dropdown is built using all of the following required subcomponents:

dropdown/dropdown_trigger is the UI component that users interact with to toggle the dropdown.
dropdown/dropdown_container is the floating container that wraps the list of dropdown options.
dropdown/dropdown_option renders options that are passed to the container.
Each of these subcomponents can be altered using global props and/or their respective props. See doc examples below for more information on each.

<% 
  options = [
    { label: 'United States', value: 'United States', id: 'us' },
    { label: 'Canada', value: 'Canada', id: 'ca' },
    { label: 'Pakistan', value: 'Pakistan', id: 'pk' },
  ]

%>

<%= pb_rails("dropdown", props: {options: options}) do %>
    <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_trigger") %>
    <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_container") do %>
        <% options.each do |option| %>
            <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_option", props: {option: option}) %>
        <% end %>
    <% end %>
<% end %>

The top-level Dropdown component optionally accepts any string through a label prop to produce a label above your trigger element.

<% 
  options = [
    { label: 'United States', value: 'United States', id: 'us' },
    { label: 'Canada', value: 'Canada', id: 'ca' },
    { label: 'Pakistan', value: 'Pakistan', id: 'pk' },
  ]

%>

<%= pb_rails("dropdown", props: {options: options, label: "Select a Country"}) %>

dropdown/dropdown_option subcomponent accepts any child components to customize the options' contents and display. By default, options are Body kit text that is set by the label value from the option object.

<% 
  options = [

      label: "United States",
      value: "United States",
      areaCode: "+1",

Optionally utilize custom_display on the dropdown/dropdown_trigger subcomponent to customize its content after an option is selected. The component passed to custom_display will be rendered to the left of the default text-based display. In this example the Avatar kit is being used.

The placeholder prop can also be used to customize the placeholder text for the default dropdown/dropdown_trigger.

The dropdown follows the typical rails pattern of utilizing hidden inputs for form submission. The hidden input value is the selected options' id.

<% 
  options = [
    {
      label: "Jasper Furniss",
      value: "Jasper Furniss",

Optionally replace the default trigger's select element by passing child components directly to the dropdown/dropdown_trigger.

<% 
  options = [

      label: "United States",
      value: "United States",
      areaCode: "+1",
      icon: "🇺🇸",

      value: "Pakistan",
      areaCode: "+92",
      icon: "🇵🇰",
      id: "pk"

<%= pb_rails("dropdown", props: {options: options}) do %>
    <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_trigger") do %>

Custom Option Padding

By default, dropdown option paddingX is set to sm and paddingY is set to xs, but this padding can be overridden using our global padding props. In this example we are setting the option padding to sm all around.

<% 
  options = [
    { label: 'United States', value: 'United States', id: 'us' },
    { label: 'Canada', value: 'Canada', id: 'ca' },
    { label: 'Pakistan', value: 'Pakistan', id: 'pk' },
  ]

%>

<%= pb_rails("dropdown", props: {options: options}) do %>
    <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_trigger") %>
    <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_container") do %>
        <% options.each do |option| %>
            <%= pb_rails("dropdown/dropdown_option", props: {option: option, padding:"sm"}) %>
        <% end %>
    <% end %>
