Usage

Examples

Selecting two or more options

select2 'Buy Milk', 'Go to gym', from: 'Todo'

select2 'Buy Milk', from: 'Todo', search: true

Searching by text different than an option text

select2 'Buy Milk', from: 'Todo', search: 'Buy'

Tagging

select2 'Go to gym', from: 'Todo', tag: true

Resolving ambiguous match

# Select the first matching option if there are two or more options with text 'Buy'
select2 'Buy', from: 'Todo', match: :first

Selecting an option by exact text

# Select 'Eat' if there are two or more options with text 'Eat' ('Eat', 'Eat salad')
select2 'Eat', from: 'Todo', exact_text: true
