Select

Installation

bunx --bun shadcn@latest add @sui/select

Install with the shadcn CLI or use the shared @workspace/ui package. Follow the installation guide to configure the registry, load styles, and choose import aliases.

Usage

import {
  Select,
  SelectContent,
  SelectGroup,
  SelectItem,
  SelectTrigger,
  SelectValue,
} from "@workspace/ui/components/select"

const items = [
  { label: "Light", value: "light" },
  { label: "Dark", value: "dark" },
  { label: "System", value: "system" },
]

<Select items={items}>
  <SelectTrigger className="w-[180px]">
    <SelectValue placeholder="Theme" />
  </SelectTrigger>
  <SelectContent>
    <SelectGroup>
      {items.map((item) => (
        <SelectItem key={item.value} value={item.value}>
          {item.label}
        </SelectItem>
      ))}
    </SelectGroup>
  </SelectContent>
</Select>

Composition

Use the following composition to build a Select:

Select
├── SelectTrigger
│   └── SelectValue
└── SelectContent
    ├── SelectGroup
    │   ├── SelectLabel
    │   ├── SelectItem
    │   └── SelectItem
    ├── SelectSeparator
    └── SelectGroup
        ├── SelectLabel
        ├── SelectItem
        └── SelectItem

Use alignItemWithTrigger on SelectContent to control whether the selected item aligns with the trigger. When true (default), the popup positions so the selected item appears over the trigger. When false, the popup aligns to the trigger edge.

Align Item

Toggle to align the item with the trigger.

Groups

Use SelectGroup, SelectLabel, and SelectSeparator to organize items.

Scrollable

A select with many items that scrolls.

Disabled

Invalid

Add the data-invalid attribute to the Field component and the aria-invalid attribute to the SelectTrigger component to show an error state.

<Field data-invalid>
  <FieldLabel>Fruit</FieldLabel>
  <SelectTrigger aria-invalid>
    <SelectValue />
  </SelectTrigger>
</Field>

RTL

To enable RTL support in shadcn/ui, see the RTL configuration guide.
