Bloodhound / Typeahead : Using Remote With Simple Strings
I'm trying to use typeahead.js with bloodhound to dynamically fetch autocomplete sugestions for an input field while the user is typing. However, I'm a noob at it and I can't figur
Solution 1:
Use bloodhound's filter method like this
filter: function(data) {
return $.map(data, function(item) {
return {
'value': item
};
});
}
Bloodhound object should looks like this
var dataSource = newBloodhound({
datumTokenizer: Bloodhound.tokenizers.obj.whitespace('value'),
queryTokenizer: Bloodhound.tokenizers.whitespace,
prefetch: {
url: "http://output.jsbin.com/cajebe/1.json",
filter: function(data){
return $.map(data, function(item){
return {'value' : item};
});
}
}
});
PS: The data from the server should be of JSON format
Here is a demo http://jsfiddle.net/dhirajbodicherla/pegp21r7/35/
update
Typeahead is missing correct parameters. It should be
typeaheadjs: [ {options}, {datasets} ]
$('#txtAutoSearchBox').typeahead(null, { // <--- missing this nullitems: 4,
displayKey: 'value',
source: suggestions.ttAdapter()
});
