Following the autosuggest example , I need to save and use an object instead of a simple line from amp-selector
.
This is the JSON from the API:
[{
"name": "Singapore",
"cityCode": "SIN",
"countryName": "Singapore",
"type": "city"
}, {
"name": "Sinop",
"cityCode": "NOP",
"countryName": "Turkey",
"type": "city"
}, {
"name": "Sinop",
"cityCode": "OPS",
"countryName": "Brazil",
"type": "city"
}]
Rendering using AMP:
<amp-list
class="autosuggest-box"
layout="fixed-height"
height="130"
src="<url>"
id="autosuggest-list"
single-item
items="."
>
<template type="amp-mustache">
<amp-selector
id="autosuggest-selector"
keyboard-select-mode="focus"
layout="container"
on="
select:
AMP.setState({
locationObj: event.targetOption,
showDropdown: false
}),
autosuggest-list.hide"
>
{{#.}}
<div
class="location-item no-outline"
role="option"
tabindex="0"
on="tap:autosuggest-list.hide"
option="{{.}}"
>{{name}}, {{countryName}}</div>
{{/.}}
</amp-selector>
</template>
</amp-list>
Thanks to this answer for syntax {{.}}
not found anywhere in Mustache docs. However, the linked field locationObj
in amp-bind prints [object Object]
, and when I try to use locationObj.name
it printsnull
Here is the binding code
<input
type="text"
class="search-box"
on="
input-debounced:
AMP.setState({
showDropdown: event.value
}),
autosuggest-list.show;
tap:
AMP.setState({
showDropdown: 'true'
}),
autosuggest-list.show"
[value]="locationObj ? locationObj.name : ''"
value=""
required
autocomplete="off"
/>
The AMP docs don't say how to write anything to the console, so I have an idea of what is installed in locationObj
through{{.}}
