React-select: How to display HTML in options

Question

I am wondering if react-select could show html in rendered options. For example if fetched ajax option has <b>text</b> , I would like to see text as bold in the dropdown menu instead of seeing <b>text</b> .

I read the documentation and I didnt find any option for this.

Thank you

Answer 1

I implemented the above solution and it broke the searchable feature. The label expects a string, not an element. -- There is actually a prop/function to do this

formatOptionLabel={function(data) {
  return (
    <span dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: data.label }} />
  );
}}

你可以依赖 react-select 的optionComponent和 React 的危险的optionComponent 特性并给optionComponent一个像这样的组件

const MyOptionComponent = props => <span dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html : props.option}} />;

Answer 3

As simple as:

{ value: 'foo', label: <span dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: 'bar &amp; foo' }} /> }

No option component, no option renderer, just simple jsx.

Answer 4

You can create either a custom optionRenderer or optionComponent for react-select .

I'd recommend you optionRenderer as it is more simple, if you only want to put convert to html. You can see an example here:

There is another example for optionComponent here (just in case you want extra functionality): https://github.com/JedWatson/react-select/blob/master/examples/src/components/CustomComponents.js#L15
