how to use autocomplete in react ant design 5

In this tutorial, we will create autocomplete in react with ant design 5. First you need to setup react with ant design 5 project.

install & setup vite + react + typescript + ant design 5

1. Create a simple autocomplete in React using Ant Design 5’s AutoComplete component and the useState hook.

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { AutoComplete } from 'antd';

const mockVal = (str: string, repeat = 1) => ({
  value: str.repeat(repeat),
});

const App: React.FC = () => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState('');
  const [options, setOptions] = useState<{ value: string }[]>([]);
  const [anotherOptions, setAnotherOptions] = useState<{ value: string }[]>([]);

  const getPanelValue = (searchText: string) =>
    !searchText ? [] : [mockVal(searchText), mockVal(searchText, 2), mockVal(searchText, 3)];

  const onSelect = (data: string) => {
    console.log('onSelect', data);
  };

  const onChange = (data: string) => {
    setValue(data);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <AutoComplete
        options={options}
        style={{ width: 200 }}
        onSelect={onSelect}
        onSearch={(text) => setOptions(getPanelValue(text))}
        placeholder="input here"
      />
      <br />
      <br />
      <AutoComplete
        value={value}
        options={anotherOptions}
        style={{ width: 200 }}
        onSelect={onSelect}
        onSearch={(text) => setAnotherOptions(getPanelValue(text))}
        onChange={onChange}
        placeholder="control mode"
      />
    </>
  );
};

export default App;

2. react ant design 5 search autocomplete with options property.

import React from 'react';
import { UserOutlined } from '@ant-design/icons';
import { AutoComplete, Input } from 'antd';

const renderTitle = (title: string) => (
  <span>
    {title}
    <a
      style={{ float: 'right' }}
      href="https://www.google.com/search?q=antd"
      target="_blank"
      rel="noopener noreferrer"
    >
      more
    </a>
  </span>
);

const renderItem = (title: string, count: number) => ({
  value: title,
  label: (
    <div
      style={{
        display: 'flex',
        justifyContent: 'space-between',
      }}
    >
      {title}
      <span>
        <UserOutlined /> {count}
      </span>
    </div>
  ),
});

const options = [
  {
    label: renderTitle('Libraries'),
    options: [renderItem('AntDesign', 10000), renderItem('AntDesign UI', 10600)],
  },
  {
    label: renderTitle('Solutions'),
    options: [renderItem('AntDesign UI FAQ', 60100), renderItem('AntDesign FAQ', 30010)],
  },
  {
    label: renderTitle('Articles'),
    options: [renderItem('AntDesign design language', 100000)],
  },
];

const App: React.FC = () => (
  <AutoComplete
    popupClassName="certain-category-search-dropdown"
    dropdownMatchSelectWidth={500}
    style={{ width: 250 }}
    options={options}
  >
    <Input.Search size="large" placeholder="input here" />
  </AutoComplete>
);

export default App;

3. react typescript with ant design 5 search autocomplete.

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { AutoComplete, Input } from 'antd';
import type { SelectProps } from 'antd/es/select';

const getRandomInt = (max: number, min = 0) => Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;

const searchResult = (query: string) =>
  new Array(getRandomInt(5))
    .join('.')
    .split('.')
    .map((_, idx) => {
      const category = `${query}${idx}`;
      return {
        value: category,
        label: (
          <div
            style={{
              display: 'flex',
              justifyContent: 'space-between',
            }}
          >
            <span>
              Found {query} on{' '}
              <a
                href={`https://s.taobao.com/search?q=${query}`}
                target="_blank"
                rel="noopener noreferrer"
              >
                {category}
              </a>
            </span>
            <span>{getRandomInt(200, 100)} results</span>
          </div>
        ),
      };
    });

const App: React.FC = () => {
  const [options, setOptions] = useState<SelectProps<object>['options']>([]);

  const handleSearch = (value: string) => {
    setOptions(value ? searchResult(value) : []);
  };

  const onSelect = (value: string) => {
    console.log('onSelect', value);
  };

  return (
    <AutoComplete
      dropdownMatchSelectWidth={252}
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      options={options}
      onSelect={onSelect}
      onSearch={handleSearch}
    >
      <Input.Search size="large" placeholder="input here" enterButton />
    </AutoComplete>
  );
};

export default App;
