v-on:change does not work for vue-multiselect

Question

I am using vue-multiselect component in my vue.js project, I am using v-on directive to execute a function on the change event ,

<multiselect v-model="selected" :options="projects" :searchable="false" :custom-label="customLabel" track-by="name" v-on:change="executeLoader">
<template slot="customLabel" slot-scope="{ customLabel }"><strong>{{ option.name }}</strong></template>   
</multiselect>

I have example full code here: https://codesandbox.io/s/yjjon0vzxj

the v-on:change was working with <select> component but it stopped workigng with vue-multiselect ! I tried with v-on:click="executeLoader" but that too didnt worked either..

Answer 1

@click will not trigger the method executeLoader with vue multiselect. You can use @input - which is similar to v-on:change, @close, @select as in example below:

<multiselect placeholder="Pick at least one" select-label="Enter doesn’t work here!" :value="value" :options="options" :multiple="true" :searchable="true" :allow-empty="false" :hide-selected="true" :max-height="150" :max="3" :disabled="isDisabled" :block-keys="['Tab', 'Enter']" @input="onChange" @close="onTouch" @select="onSelect"></multiselect>

In your case I would try @input="executeLoader"
