OnsSearchInput Directive (ons-search-input)

Angular directive for <ons-search-input> component.

A search input element. The component will automatically render as a Material Design search input on Android devices. Most attributes that can be used for a normal <input> element can also be used on the <ons-search-input> element.

Tutorial

Search input

Even though ons-input supports type="search", Onsen UI provides an extra element ons-search-input that styles the input as a real search bar:

<ons-search-input placeholder="Search something"></ons-search-input>

As usual, any attribute for <input> element works for the search input (except type which is fixed to search).

Inner input element

For normal input elements is possible to define a <label> tab with the for attribute to link it to an input element.

Unfortunately this does not work with custom elements like <ons-label> so in order to do it we need to set the id attribute of the inner input element. This is done using the input-id attribute.

<label for="username">Username</label>
<ons-input input-id="username"></ons-input>

This work with any input in Onsen UI such as checkboxes, radios, etc.
