Description

The changes suggested in this PR allow setting the position to the autocomplete Popover.

How has this been tested?

  • It doesn't introduce any change by default.
  • Create an Autocomplete and defines the position:
{
	// ...
	position: 'bottom',
	// ...
},
const autocompleters = [
	{
		name: 'fruit',
		// The prefix that triggers this completer
		triggerPrefix: '~',
		// The option data
		options: [
			{ visual: '🍎', name: 'Apple', id: 1 },
			{ visual: '🍊', name: 'Orange', id: 2 },
			{ visual: '🍇', name: 'Grapes', id: 3 },
		],
		// Returns a label for an option like "🍊 Orange"
		getOptionLabel: option => (
			<span>
				<span className="icon" >{ option.visual }</span>{ option.name }
			</span>
		),
		// Declares that options should be matched by their name
		getOptionKeywords: option => [ option.name ],
		// Declares that the Grapes option is disabled
		isOptionDisabled: option => option.name === 'Grapes',
		// Declares completions should be inserted as abbreviations
		getOptionCompletion: option => (
			<abbr title={ option.name }>{ option.visual }</abbr>
		),

		position: 'bottom', // <- position here
	}
];

You should see the autocomplete popover below to the text input component.

I'm afraid this leaks the internal implementation of the autocomplete making it harder to change how it is structured in the future. Do we really need to be able to pass down all popoverProps. What is the actual use case? If the position is a concern here, maybe we should cover only that.

Thanks, Greg.

I'm afraid this leaks the internal implementation of the autocomplete making it harder to change how it is structured in the future.

I tried to follow how the Dropdown component deals with the position property. It's doable passing the Popover props using the popoverProps.

Do we really need to be able to pass down all popoverProps.

I guess we could pass only a position prop instead of the whole props object. Opted by the whole object because that's what the Dropdown does.

What is the actual use case? If the position is a concern here, ...

It was part of a custom implementation, where the designer asked me whether was possible to move the autocomplete dropdown just below the input element. I don't wanna bothering you with the details :-)

... maybe we should cover only that.

Yeah, I think that would be great. Simpler, and clearer.

Right, we needed that popoverProps in the past to unify some of the existing interfaces but in retrospect, it was a really bad idea. The lesson learned is that we should seek ways to use composition more to support more advanced use cases rather than trying to have one gigantic component that covers them all. I'm happy to hear that position is enough for now. It also makes sense to offer this type of functionality from the perspective of the Autocomplete API 👍🏻
