'Implementing default suggestions when input is focused
I am using the react-autosuggest library to implement auto-suggestions functionality. I am pretty new to using this library. I went through the documentation, but it seems to be a bit confusing to me in certain things. I tried to find answers to a few of the things:
- What is the complete list of inputProps that can be passed to the component?
- How can we open a dropdown with a list of a few default suggestions as soon as the user clicks on the input box instead of showing suggestions only when the user types in?
- What exactly is the use of prop: multiSection when the data is of the form [{ name: '', flag: ''}] (just a sample) and we display only name in the dropdown list?
I found a lot of similar working examples using this library but wasn't able to get hold of the understanding properly. Seems like there are lots of missing points in the library documentation.
I found this one basic clean working snippet: https://codesandbox.io/s/react-autosuggest-example-with-hooks-forked-y7lkom. But was unable to add the dropdown functionality to it.
If anyone can help to get through this feature and some above queries, I would be highly thankful.
