React Query Assist
This fork has the following improvements:
- React 17 support
- Updated emotion to latest
- Translatable static strings
A smart search bar for React that comes with built-in autocomplete and token visualization.
What is a token?
A token is a key-value in a search query that contains an attribute and a value separated by a colon. e.g. some_attribute:some_enumeration
Getting Started
$ npm install -S react-query-assist emotion react-emotion
emotion
is a peer dependency of this library to allow for easy custom styling.
import QueryAssist from "react-query-assist";
const data = [
{
name: "some_attribute",
type: "string",
enumerations: ["enum1", "enum2", "enum3" /* ... */],
translation : "your translation" /* optional property (used to display the name in the dropdown)*/
},
];
export default function () {
return <QueryAssist data={data} onSubmit={console.log} />;
}
Autocomplete Data
The data prop should have the full list of autocomplete values. The data structure should be an array of attributes, and each attribute should have a name, type and enumerations of available values:
[
{
name: String,
type: String,
enumerations: Array or null
}
]
name
The value of the attribute in the tokentype
The data type of the enumerations (this determines available operators)enumerations
A list of available attribute values in the token
Wildcards and quoted values
If the attribute type is a string, there are two additional autocomplete values that may be suggested:
- An appended wildcard will be suggested if the value is not blank
- Wrapping the value in quotes will be suggested if there are no enumerations for the attribute
When will the dropdown open?
The autocomplete dropdown will automatically open when it detects a new word is being typed or an existing token is being edited. Note: Tokens are only valid if the attribute and value match an attribute and enumeration in the autocomplete data.
Operators
Each token in the query can have a number of operators, depending on the data type of the enumerations. They will change based on the type
of the active attribute. The operator buttons in the dropdown will automatically update as you type, but they can also be clicked to toggle/update the value.

Themes
The default styling is intentionally neutral so you can customize the look based on your own style guide. You can add custom styling to each specific element by using the inputProps, dropdownProps, selectorProps and listProps props. These objects will be merged into the props of each component. See the documentation for styled-system on how to customize styles with props.
Input Prop Extras
A few extra props are accepted for further styling on inputProps
:
placeholderColor
The placeholder text color for the input fieldtokenColor
The highlight color of the valid tokens
Keyboard
By default, keyboard helpers for the dropdown are enabled. Meaning when the dropdown is open, pressing the following keys will result in action:
up
/down
Will navigate through the autocomplete valuesenter
Will select the currently highlighted value and insert into the queryescape
Will close the dropdown
