`,
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  userList =[
    { id:1,name:'user1' },
    { id:2,name:'user2' },
    { id:3,name:'user3' },
    { id:4,name:'user4' },
    { id:5,name:'user5' },
    { id:6,name:'user6' },
  ]

  selected=null;

  ngOnInit(){
    this.selected= this.userList[0]
  }
  setDropdownSettings(id,isMultiple,placeholder,label,key,tooltip):DropdownSettingsModel{
    return new DropdownSettingsModel(id,isMultiple,placeholder,label,key,tooltip)
     
  }
}


export class DropdownSettingsModel{
    id: string;
    multiple: boolean; // single/multiselect
    placeholder: string;
    labelKey: string; // view value
    keyValue: string; // unique id/value
    tooltip: string;
    constructor(id = "", multiple = false, placeholder = "Search", labelKey = "name", keyValue = "key", tooltip = "Code") {
        this.id = id;
        this.multiple = multiple;
        this.placeholder = placeholder;
        this.labelKey = labelKey;
        this.keyValue = keyValue;
        this.tooltip = tooltip ? tooltip : labelKey;
    }
