Select

A dropdown menu similar to the HTML <select> element.

Menu items are provided as an array of MenuItemData types, and v-model is used to bind the current selection's value.

Note: For icon properties, the relevant icon also needs to be imported from the @wikimedia/codex-icons package. See the usage documentation for more information.

Basic Usage

Menu items must have a value, and can have a label to display in the UI. If no label is provided (like the third menu item in this example), the value will be displayed.

With menu item icons and descriptions

Items are displayed via the MenuItem component—see the MenuItem docs for more options. In this example, a menuConfig object is passed to the Select to bold the label text and hide the text overflow of the descriptions.

With custom menu item display

The menu-item scoped slot enables you to customize the display of each menu item, with a binding for the menuItem. In this example, only the menu item's icon is displayed in the menu.

With custom label display

The label scoped slot enables you to customize the display of the label, with bindings for the selectedMenuItem and the defaultLabel.
