Available Scripts

For adding the library, you have to run

npm install react-generic-search

Basic Usage

To load items async before running the search to filter results you can pass a function to the getItemsAsync prop which will be triggered to load the results each key change. An example below using the github api to search for repos. Check out the example for more info.

import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import ReactGenericSearch from "react-generic-search";
import "./App.css";

function App() {
  const [data, setData] = useState([]);
  const [filteredData, setFilteredData] = useState([]);

  useEffect(() => {
    fetch("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users")
      .then((res) => res.json())
      .then((res) => {
        setData(res);
      })
      .catch((err) => {
        console.lof(err);
      });
  }, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    setFilteredData(data);
  }, [data]);

  return (
    <div>
      <ReactGenericSearch
        style={{ marginBottom: "50px" }}
        data={data}
        className="search"
        filters={[
          "id",
          "name",
          "city",
          "lat",
          "lng",
          "street",
          "suite",
          "zipcode",
          "bs",
          "catchPhrase",
        ]}
        callback={(record) => {
          setFilteredData(record);
        }}
      />
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;
