DropdownField

DropdownField renders the renderer-independent Cratis Dropdown for choosing one value from a list.

Usage

import { CommandDialog } from '@cratis/components/CommandDialog';
import { DropdownField } from '@cratis/components/CommandForm';

const statusOptions = [
    { label: 'Active', value: 'active' },
    { label: 'Inactive', value: 'inactive' },
];

<CommandDialog command={MyCommand} visible={visible} onCancel={() => setVisible(false)}>
    <DropdownField<MyCommand>
        value={(c) => c.status}
        options={statusOptions}
        optionLabel='label'
        optionValue='value'
        placeholder='Select a status'
    />
</CommandDialog>;

With custom data:

const roles = [
    { id: 'admin', display: 'Administrator' },
    { id: 'user', display: 'Standard User' },
];

<DropdownField<MyCommand>
    value={(c) => c.role}
    options={roles}
    optionLabel='display'
    optionValue='id'
/>;

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
value	(instance: TCommand) => unknown	—	Required. Accessor function that returns the bound property from the command instance. Pass the command type as the generic parameter for full type safety.
options	Array<{ [key: string]: unknown }>	—	Required. Array of option objects.
optionLabel	string	—	Required. Key in each option object to use as the display label.
optionValue	string	—	Required. Key in each option object to use as the submitted value.
placeholder	string	—	Placeholder text shown when no value is selected.
className	string	—	Extra CSS class combined with the default w-full.
pt	DropdownParts	—	Attributes for the Cratis-owned Dropdown’s stable parts.
ptOptions / unstyled	—	—	Retained temporarily for source compatibility; ignored.

DropdownField deliberately does not surface multiple, filter or showClear — use MultiSelectField for multi-select, or the Dropdown wrapper directly outside a command form.

Behavior

• Default value is an empty string.
• The field spans full width within its container.
• Validation state is reflected through aria-invalid and data-invalid.
