I am creating a dynamic search bar that will filter a sidebar full of names based on user input. However, I am having trouble temporarily hiding and showing data based on the search bar's value on keyup. What is the best way to achieve this the "Vue way"?
On keyup, I want to filter through all of the this.people data and only show names that contain the value of the search input.
Below is what my code looks like
//Javascript
Vue.component('sidebar',{
props: ['people', 'tables'],
data: () => {
return {
fullName: ''
}
},
computed: {
computed() {
return [this.people, this.tables].join()
}
},
template:
`
<div id="sidebarContain" v-if="this.people">
<input id="sidebar-search" type="text" placeholder="Search..." @keydown="searchQuery">
<select id="sidebar-select" @change="sidebarChanged">
<option value="AZ">A-Z</option>
<option value="ZA">Z-A</option>
<option value="notAtTable">No Table</option>
<option value="Dean's Guest">Dean's Guest</option>
<option value="BOO | VIP">BOO | VIP</option>
</select>
<div v-for="person in people" :class="[{'checked-in': isCheckedIn(person)}, 'person']" :id="person.id" :style="calcRegColor(person)">
<span v-if="person.table_name">{{person.first_name + ' ' + person.last_name + ' - ' + person.table_name}}</span>
<span v-else>{{person.first_name + ' ' + person.last_name}}</span>
</div>
</div>
`,
methods: {
isCheckedIn(person) {
return person.reg_scan == null ? true : false;
},
isHidden(person)
{
console.log("here");
},
calcRegColor(person)
{
switch(person.registration_type)
{
case "Dean's Guest" :
return {
color: 'purple'
}
break;
case "BOO | VIP" :
return {
color: 'brown'
}
break;
case "Student" :
return {
color: 'green'
}
break;
case "Faculty":
case "Staff":
return {
color: 'blue'
}
break;
case "Alumni Club Leader":
return {
color: 'gold'
}
break;
case "Table Guest" :
return {
color: 'pink'
}
break;
default:
return {
color: 'black'
}
}
}
},
watch: {
computed() {
console.log("People and Tables Available");
}
}
});
//HTML
<div id="app">
<sidebar :people="people" :tables="tables"></sidebar>
</div>

Here is a strategy to achieve this in Vue:
A. Use a different property with v-for
instead of
props.people, like myPeople
.
<div v-for="person in myPeople">
B. Save your searchQuery with v-model:
<input id="sidebar-search" ... v-model="searchQuery">
...
// Include searchQuery in data so it is reactive.
data: () => {
return {
fullName: '',
searchQuery: ''
}
}
C. Compute myPeople
when searchQuery changes
computed: {
myPeople: function () {
return this.people.filter((p) => {
// something based on `searchQuery`
});
}
}
The Vue docs have a longer discussion around this type of thing.
