It is intended to be an alternative to having multiple select components, and supports and/or opertions and multiple comparison types.

- matchers - matchers to show in the control
- dataSources - datasources available to the control
- defaultComparison - default comparison symbol, defaults to =
- and - the and symbol, defaults to &
- or - the or symbol, defaults to -
- defaultItemLimit - default number of items to show for each datasource in the dropdown
- simpleOperation - only allow users to selct comparisons, no brackets or and or
- onMatchersChanged - event for when the matchers change
- clearIcon - alternative icon to the X
- maxDropDownHeight - the maximium hieght of the options dropdown
- minDropDownWidth - the minimum width of the option dropdown
- searchStartLength - the length of text at which to look for matches
- styles - allows styles to be set for the different components
There are two types of dataSource a lookup source that can be either a list or a promise, and a match datasource that can be either a function or a regex.
source: SourceItem[] | ((text: string) => Promise<SourceItem[]>)
textGetter?: (item: object) => string
valueGetter?: (item: object) => Value
ignoreCase?: boolean
itemLimit?: number
searchStartLength?: number
- Source - either a list of strings/objects, or a promise that returns a list of strings/objects
- textGetter - if the source is an object, then this is a function to extract the display texst
- valueGetter - if the source is an object, then this is a function to extract the value
- ignoreCase - a boolean value to indicate if case is ignored when matching items
- itemLimit - the maximium number of matches to shouw ina dropdown
- searchStartLength - the text length required before datas source is searched
match: RegExp | ((text: string) => boolean) | RegExp[] | ((text: string) => boolean)[]
value: (text: string) => Value
- match - either a regex or a function, or an array to determine if the text entered is a match
- value - a function that can extract a value from the text
and the compairsons on both sides must be true
or the comparisons on either side can be true
Comparisons can be configured as can the symbol for and/or
( open bracket
