A Stimulus controller for autogrowing textarea.

And use it in your JS file:
// Probably in app/javascript/controllers/index.js
import { Application } from '@hotwired/stimulus'
import TextareaAutogrow from 'stimulus-textarea-autogrow'
const application = Application.start()
application.register('textarea-autogrow', TextareaAutogrow)
π Demo
See demo βUsage
In your view:
<textarea data-controller="textarea-autogrow">
Very long text here.
</textarea>
<textarea data-controller="textarea-autogrow" data-textarea-autogrow-resize-debounce-delay-value="500">
Very long text here.
</textarea>
π Configuration
The height is calculated on window resize to match the content height.
Attribute | Default | Description | Optional |
---|---|---|---|
data-textarea-autogrow-resize-debounce-delay-value | 100 | Delay before autogrow on resize in milliseconds (0 to disable). | β |
π Extending Controller
You can use inheritance to extend the functionality of any Stimulus component:
import TextareaAutogrow from 'stimulus-textarea-autogrow'
export default class extends TextareaAutogrow {
connect() {
super.connect()
console.log('Do what you want here.')
}
}
This controller will automatically have access to targets defined in the parent class.
If you override the connect
, disconnect
or any other methods from the parent, you'll
want to call super.method()
to make sure the parent functionality is executed.
