How to use onChange method in semantic react dropdown

Question

Can someone help me out how to use onChange in dropdown (Semantic UI React). I am reading the docs, but still, I don't get it. It does have onChange props.

onChange(event: SyntheticEvent, data: object)

How do I use it? Like, I have method dropdownmethod().

edit - implemented the suggestion, but it didn't work. I think in your suggestion, you didn't bind the function. But, I bind the function.

  onChangeFollower(event,data){

    console.log("on change follower",data.text)

  }

  render() {
    console.log("this.props",this.props)
    var onChangeFollower = this.onChangeFollower.bind(this)

    return (
      <div>
        <h2>project settings are here</h2>
        <h2>Add new Member</h2>

        <Dropdown onChange={onChangeFollower}
        placeholder='Select Member'
        fluid search selection options={arr} />

        <h2>List of members</h2>
        {lr}

      </div>

As stated in the docs, you just need to pass a reference of your method and then you will get 2 parameters:

1. The native event

2. The object of the option selected

Here is a running example

Here is a code snippet (it uses a CDN but throws some debug warnings, so ignore them)

const { Dropdown } = semanticUIReact;

const languageOptions = [
  { key: 'eng', text: 'English', value: 'eng' },
  { key: 'spn', text: 'Spanish', value: 'spn' },
  { key: 'rus', text: 'Russian', value: 'Russian' },
]

class App extends React.Component {

  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      searchQuery: '',
      selected: null
    }
  }

  onChange = (e, data) => {
    console.log(data.value);
    this.setState({ selected: data.value });
  }

  onSearchChange = (e, data) => {
    console.log(data.searchQuery);
    this.setState({ searchQuery: data.searchQuery });
  }

  render() {
    const { searchQuery, selected } = this.state;
    return (
      <div>
        <Dropdown
          button
          className='icon'
          fluid
          labeled
          icon='world'
          options={languageOptions}
          search
          text={searchQuery}
          searchQuery={searchQuery}
          value={selected}
          onChange={this.onChange}
          onSearchChange={this.onSearchChange}
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));

Edit
As a followup to your comment.

I checked example. Even there when i type something, it doesnt show me anything in console

You are not talking about onChange of the select you are talking about when the search input has changed.
You can use onSearchChange with same parameters. (I've updated the example)
