Forms

Select.

A dropdown for picking one value from a list, with groups, labels, icons and full keyboard support.

Installation#

With the CLI

$npx lanterncn add select

This also installs the Lantern theme and any Lantern UI components it depends on. The shadcn CLI works directly too: npx shadcn@latest add httptim/lantern-ui/select. See Installation if your project is not set up yet.

Manually

  1. Install the dependencies

    npm install radix-ui lucide-react
  2. Copy the source into your project

    components/ui/select.tsx

  3. Update the import paths to match your project

    The source imports cn from @/lib/utils.

Usage#

import {
  Select,
  SelectContent,
  SelectGroup,
  SelectItem,
  SelectLabel,
  SelectScrollDownButton,
  SelectScrollUpButton,
  SelectSeparator,
  SelectTrigger,
  SelectValue,
} from "@/components/ui/select";
<Select>
  <SelectTrigger className="w-48">
    <SelectValue placeholder="Pick a theme" />
  </SelectTrigger>
  <SelectContent>
    <SelectItem value="lantern">Lantern</SelectItem>
    <SelectItem value="moss">Moss</SelectItem>
