ReactJS: How to wrap react-select in redux-form field?

Question

I am working on react-select library and facing some issues, I am using redux-form library and importing <Field /> component from it. So that I can submit the values via form to service.

Below mentioned code works fine, when I use default <Select> from react-select. I can able to select the values from the drop down and the value will be selected even on focus out the value will remain. But selected value is not submitting via form due to redux-form that's why I am wrapping <Select /> component and using with <Field name="sample" component={RenderSelectInput} id="sampleEX" options={options} />

import React from 'react';
import Select from 'react-select';
import RenderSelectInput from './RenderSelectInput'; // my customize select box

var options = [{ value: 'one', label: 'One' }, { value: 'two', label: 'Two' }];


class SelectEx extends React.Component {
    constructor() {
        super();
        this.state = { selectValue: 'sample' }
        this.updateValue = this.updateValue.bind(this);
    }

    updateValue(newValue) {
        this.setState({ selectValue: newValue })
    }

    render() {

        return (
            <div>
                <Select name="select1" id="selectBox" value={this.state.selectValue} options={options} onChange={this.updateValue}/>

                //This works but value won't submit ...

                <Field name="sample" component={RenderSelectInput} id="sampleEX" options={options} />
            //For this, selected value vanishes once I come out of component. 
            </div>
        )
    }
}

export default SelectEx;

But when I use with my customized select (I am wrapping the to submit the value from form) the <Select> component can be visible in UI even the values also. But unable to select the value from dropdown ..., If I select also it displays in the <Select> box but on focus out it vanishes. Please help me ...

RenderSelectInput component:

import React from 'react';
import {Field, reduxForm} from 'redux-form';
import Select from 'react-select';
import 'react-select/dist/react-select.css';


const RenderSelectInput = ({input, options, name, id}) => (

    <div>
        <Select {...input} name={name} options={options} id={id} />
    </div>
)

export default RenderSelectInput;

When using react-select with redux-form, you'll need to change the default behavior of onChange and onBlur method and call redux-form's onChange and onBlur method respectively.

So, Try this:

const RenderSelectInput = ({input, options, name, id}) => (
    <Select 
         {...input}
         id={id} 
         name={name} 
         options={options}
         value={input.value}
         onChange={(value) => input.onChange(value)}
         onBlur={(value) => input.onBlur(value)}
    />
)

and use the above component like

<Field component={RenderSelectInput} />

Calling redux-form's onBlur method when focus is removed from the Select field will prevent loss of value.
