Vue-multiselect: search-change event does not emit when input cleared

[petecoop]

Hey I'm using 2.0.0-beta.13, with Asynchronous select. An issue I've come to is the search-change event is not fired when the input is cleared, ideally it'd send a null or empty string so I can reset my search

Already working on it. Having a large update mostly done (ssr, detecting position to change the location of the dropdown and some more), but I still have a problem with SSR which is blocking me from releasing it. Please be patient. :(

Oh nice SSR would be great, I'll be patient 👍

It mostly works, but I guess I stumbled upon a Vue bug, so I am kinda blocked right now. :(

[petecoop]

:( what's the Vue bug?

FYI. I've found some clues. I got this issue as well and I noticed something.

If I type to search an option but don't select any options, then delete the searched text to empty, this issue will occur.

But after I select something, then type again and delete to empty string, the issue will not happen.

Hi. I think there is no ideal fix on vue's repo. So I would suggest to make some workaround rather than blocked by core library.

The best workaround I can think is to return a function in default. Otherwise you need to pack vue's source code into server bundle. For more information please refer to the corresponding issue in vue's repo.

Maybe default taking a function is bad design, we can have another option name like factory.

I know, I intend to ignore the issue for now as it will be fixed in Vue 2.2. However, there is a new feature incoming in Vue 2.2 that might make the changes now required for SSR obsolete. From what I know, Vue 2.2 will be able to automatically extract the CSS when on the server side.

@HerringtonDarkholme @chocochaii @petecoop beta.14 released and should fix this problem. Sorry you had to wait so long :(

Is there any workaround for detecting empty query on vue-multiselect 1 ?
