Autocomplete Inspector Type
Inspector Type
The autocomplete inspector type works like the string editor, except it includes auto completion features. Available options can be specified statically with the options parameter or loaded dynamically.
public function defineProperties()
{
return [
'condition' => [
'title' => 'Condition',
'type' => 'autocomplete',
'options' => ['start' => 'Start', 'end' => 'End']
]
];
}
The generated output is a string value, for example:
"condition": "start"
The following configuration values are commonly used.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| title | title for the property. |
| description | a brief description of the property, optional. |
| default | specifies a default string value, optional. |
| options | array of options for dropdown properties, optional if defining a get*PropertyName*Options method. |
# Dynamic Options
The autocomplete inspector type support the same methods for defining the options as the dropdown inspector type.
public function defineProperties()
{
return [
'sortColumn' => [
'title' => 'Sort by Column',
'type' => 'autocomplete',
// ...
],
];
}
public function getSortColumnOptions()
{
return [
'create' => 'Create',
'update' => 'Update',
'delete' => 'Delete',
];
}
