Preview
-------

[](#preview)

[![Preview](example.jpg)](example.jpg)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

1. Via composer,

```
"require": {
    "php": ">=5.4.0",
	"freesoftwarefactory/yii2-select3": "(put version here)"
},

```

2. In your View

```

```

Receving Values from this Control
---------------------------------

[](#receving-values-from-this-control)

Values are base64+json encoded, that is, when you submits a form using this control then you will have something similar to:

```
eyJvcHQxIjp0cnVlLCJvcHQyIjp0cnVlLCJvcHQzIjpmYWxzZX0=

```

Which is a base64 encoded version of this:

```
 {"opt1":true,"opt2":true,"opt3":false}

```

So, you can just call:

```
$values = json_decode(base64_decode($model->yourAttribute),true);

```

Or... just call :)

```
$values =  Select3Widget::getDecodedValueFrom($model, 'yourAttribute');

```

More functions
--------------

[](#more-functions)

1. load items via javascript by calling:

```
$.fn.select3load($('#widgetid') , { 123 : some , 456 : thing });

```

2. Disable the control by passing:

```
[
    'disable'=>true,
]

```

3. Disable/Check some items at startup by calling

```
[
    'disabledOptions' => ['somekeydisabled'],

    'autoSelectOptions' => ['somekeySelectedFromTheBeginning'],
]

```

4. Javascript events to listen for changes

```
$this->registerJs("
    $(document).on('select3-changed', [], function(e, options, widget){
        console.log('select3-changed', options, widget);
    });
");

```
