// App
function App() {
// Pre-select or not
const [selectedItems, setSelectedItems] = useState([] as MultiSelectAdvancedOption[])
// Onchange handler
const handleChange = (items: MultiSelectAdvancedOption[]) => setSelectedItems(items)
// Server side search function
const searchOnServer = async (keyword:string) => {
try {
// Before return the data make sure structure is matching with array of MultiSelectAdvancedOption
return await search(keyword)
} catch (error){
return error
}
}
// Mock server response
const search = async (keyword:string) => {
return new Promise(resolve => {
const filteredData = options.cities.filter(city => city.label.toLowerCase().includes(keyword.toLowerCase()))
