Select List

A Web Component to create a list with selectable items. Combine it an input element to create a search results UI.

Demo

Take a look at the browser console. When you select an item, an event listener will log it.

Code 
<input type="search" class="form-control mb-3" id="myinput" />

<bl-select-list class="list-group" id="myselectlist" for="myinput">
    <button class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Item 1</button>
    <button class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Item 2</button>
    <button class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Item 3</button>
</bl-select-list>

<script>
    document.getElementById("myselectlist").addEventListener("bl-select", ({ detail }) => {
        console.log("Selected: ", detail)
    })
</script>

Together with popover and CSS Anchoring, it’s also useful to create a dropdown list.

Code 
<button type="button" class="blue-anchor blue-menu-item btn" id="anchor-1" popovertarget="popover-1">
    <span class="blue-menu-item-label">Parent</span>
</button>

<bl-select-list id="popover-1" for="anchor-1" popover class="blue-anchored blue-anchored-fallback border rounded-4">
    <button type="button" class="blue-menu-item btn d-flex w-100">
        <span class="blue-menu-item-icon" aria-hidden="true">🌍</span>
        <span class="blue-menu-item-label">Child</span>
    </button>
    <button type="button" class="blue-menu-item btn d-flex w-100">
        <span class="blue-menu-item-icon" aria-hidden="true">🌑</span>
        <span class="blue-menu-item-label">Child 2</span>
    </button>
</bl-select-list>
