full code that loads repositories in select 2, you can change this code according to your requirements

my selection box with multiple choices
<select id="to_users" name="to_users" class="form-control js-data-example-ajax" multiple="multiple">
</select>
you can format the results
processResults: function(data, page) {
return {
results: $.map(data, function(obj) {
return { id: obj.user_id, text: obj.name };
})
};
},
if you format the results to select2 behavior then disable the code
/* escapeMarkup: function(markup) {
return markup;
}, // let our custom formatter work
templateResult: formatRepo, // omitted for brevity, see the source of this page
templateSelection: formatRepoSelection // omitted for brevity, see the source of this page*/
