I have implemented autocomplete feature using JQuery, but now I wanted to store last 20 searched per inputfield in browser. So, if user when focuses the suggestion will be fetched from the browser. If user types then from Rest API using ajax I am fetching the data.
$("input[type='text']").autocomplete({
source: function(request, response) {
var id = $(this.element).prop("id");
var id2=this.element[0].id;
var id3=$(this.element.get(0)).attr('id');
console.log(id);
console.log(id2);
console.log(id3);
var params = {'page':1,'size':"10"};
params[id]=request.term;
var jsonParams = JSON.stringify(params);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url:"http://localhost:5645/search",
data: jsonParams,
headers: {"X-CSRF-TOKEN": $("input[name='_csrf']").val()},
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function(msg) {
//const result = new Set()
var result=[];
console.log(id);
console.log(msg.details)
console.log(msg.details.length)
for(var i = 0; i < msg.details.length; i++) {
var obj = msg.details[i];
if(obj!=null && columnMapping[id]!=undefined && obj[columnMapping[id]]!=undefined){
console.log(obj[columnMapping[id]]);
//result.add(obj[columnMapping[id]]);
result.push(obj[columnMapping[id]]);
}
console.log(result);
}
//response(Array.from(result));
response(result);
}
/* error: function() {
response([]);
} */
})
},
select: function(event, ui) {
alert(ui.item ? ("You picked '" + ui.item.label) : "Nothing selected, input was " + this.value);
return false;
}
}).autocomplete("instance")._renderItem = function(ul, item) {
console.log('test');
var item = $("<div>" + item.label + "</div>")
return $("<li>").append(item).appendTo(ul);
};
Above is the jquery code which I am using for autocomplete. So, if no input is there I need to fetch from browser recent search. So, when user types unique search keys should be inserted. How I can store and retrive using javascript.
