Error: [ui.select:choices] Expected multiple .ui-select-choices-row but got '0'.

aronmgv commented 8 years ago

Hey,

I am getting this error message Error: [ui.select:choices] Expected multiple .ui-select-choices-row but got '0'. when I select item from drop down list. (ui-select 0.14.9 (even 0.14.0), angular 1.5.0 or angular 1.4.9). Basically since 0.14.0 with both angular 1.4.x or 1.5.0.

Error: [ui.select:choices] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.5.0/ui.select/choices?p0=Expected%20multiple%20.ui-select-choices-row%20but%20got%20'%7B0%7D'.&p1=0
    at select.js:125
    at _ensureHighlightVisible (select.js:853)
    at ctrl.focusSearchInput (select.js:405)
    at select.js:389
    at angular.js:18744
    at e (angular.js:5804)

It gets generated instant many times after I select..

Also other effect is that I cannot scroll immediately.. It gets stuck for about 2s (200 items) and then it allows me to scroll/select and is smooth again.

My setup (does the same without classes):

<ui-select multiple ng-model="maintenance.devices">
    <ui-select-match class="ui-select-match" placeholder="select device...">
        {{$item.hostname}}
    </ui-select-match>
    <ui-select-choices class="ui-select-choices" repeat="ne in networkElements | filter: $select.search">
        <div ng-bind-html="ne.hostname | highlight: $select.search"></div>
        <div ng-bind-html="ne.ip | highlight: $select.search"></div>
    </ui-select-choices>
</ui-select>

So far working configuration for me was only ui-select 0.13.2 and Angular 1.4.9 without classes specified:

<ui-select multiple ng-model="maintenance.devices">
    <ui-select-match placeholder="select devices...">{{$item.hostname}}</ui-select-match>
    <ui-select-choices repeat="ne in networkElements | filter:$select.search">
        <span ng-bind-html="ne.hostname | highlight:$select.search"></span>
        <span ng-bind-html="ne.ip | highlight:$select.search"></span>
    </ui-select-choices>
</ui-select>

No issues with scrolling and (list load) lag either. Smooth right after the page refresh.

Any inputs will help me. Thanks, Michal

Can you provide a reproduction plunkr with the latest version of ui-select?

@MacGyver27 Do you have ngAnimate in your project? I had a similar error when ngAnimate is present, removing the module or deactivating it for the select item should fix the error.

@SamuelPadou That was it! ngAnimate is causing this problem with latest ui-select. Thank you for this input. Either not including ngAnimate to your project or disabling it in your controller works for now..

got exact same error, ngAnimate is not even installed

The issue occurs when I'm not giving the ui-select-choices directive a class of "ui-select-choices" and the ui-select-match directive a class of "ui-select-match". Adding those classes fixes the issue.

Any other workaround though?

But... what if i'm using ng-animate?

I think the code in "ctrl.activate" function, which checks if animation finished, should also check that the drop-down is opened; this error is obtained as the '.ui-select-choices-row' controls are not found (as the drop-down is already closed).

Below is the modified code (in uiSelectController.js -> ctrl.activate function; added the && ctrl.open part in if statement) which works for me (i.e. I am no longer seeing the error message "Expected multiple .ui-select-choices-row but got '{0}'.") // check that drop-down is opened before calling focus function if (phase === 'close' && ctrl.open) { // Only focus input after the animation has finished $timeout(function () { ctrl.focusSearchInput(initSearchValue); }); }

+1. Also having this issue when calling toggle() on the ui-select. Edit: Also calling activate() may have the same issue as activate() will be invoked on condition in toggle().

Versions: Angular-ui-select: v0.15.0 Angular: v1.3.15

It appears that calling toggle() is causing the following to happen:

Invoking ctrl.focusSearchInput()
Which calls the private function _ensureHighlightVisible()

This leads to choices < 1 so it throws an error.

Edit: I've deduced that this is a race case happening with list items being loaded when a modal is shown. I've fixed this by waiting till the end of the execution cycle to invoke toggle() (or activate()) on the ui-select element. This solved the issue.
