Getting the current search term from select2 input

I would like to get the current search term value (even if it is not matched) from a select2 input. 

<div class="select2-container select2-container-multi form-control" id="s2id_author">
    <ul class="select2-choices">  
        <li class="select2-search-field">    
            <label for="s2id_autogen1" class="select2-offscreen"></label>    
            <input type="text" autocomplete="off" autocorrect="off" autocapitalize="off" spellcheck="false" class="select2-input" id="s2id_autogen1" placeholder="" style="width: 34px;" aria-activedescendant="select2-result-label-2">  
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>

You can try this to get the last search term:

$(selector).data('select2').lastSearchTerm

Check the below, it may help your need

var InputSelector = '#e1',
select2 = $(InputSelector).data('select2'),
searchedInput = select2.search;

you can try this 

$('input.select2-input').val();

this will get you the first value in a set of values

My question back to you is, are there more than one 'Select2-Input' fields on your form?
