<ModelSelect> is a typeahead select for Ember Data records — live-searches the registered store, supports infinite scroll, and accepts the full ember-power-select API.

`<ModelSelect>`

<ModelSelect> is a typeahead select for Ember Data model records. It live-queries your registered store as the user types and supports infinite scroll. It is the standard way to let a user pick a driver, vehicle, customer, store, or any other Fleetbase resource.

The component wraps ember-power-select and accepts that library's full API on top of its own arguments.

There is also a sibling <ModelSelectMultiple> for multi-value selection — same API but selects an array of records.

Basic Usage

<ModelSelect
  @modelName="vehicle"
  @selectedModel={{this.driver.vehicle}}
  @optionLabel="display_name"
  @placeholder="Select a vehicle"
  @onChange={{fn (mut this.driver.vehicle)}}
/>

The component will issue a store.query('vehicle', { ... }) request, paginated by pageSize (default 25), and update results as the user types.

With Infinite Scroll

Infinite scroll is on by default. Disable it with @infiniteScroll={{false}}:

<ModelSelect
  @modelName="zone"
  @infiniteScroll={{false}}
  @selectedModel={{this.zone}}
  @onChange={{fn (mut this.zone)}}
/>

With Inline Creation

<ModelSelect
  @modelName="tag"
  @selectedModel={{this.tag}}
  @onChange={{fn (mut this.tag)}}
  @withCreate={{true}}
  @onCreate={{this.createTag}}
  @optionLabel="name"
/>

When the user types something not in the list, a "Create…" option appears.

Yielded Block

The yielded value is the option model — useful for rich rendering:

<ModelSelect @modelName="driver" @selectedModel={{this.driver}} @onChange={{fn (mut this.driver)}} as |driver|>
  <Pill @resource={{driver}} @subtitle={{driver.public_id}} />
</ModelSelect>
