I'm having an issue when getting json results back to select2. My json does not return a result that has a "text" field so need to format the result so that select2 accepts "Name".
This code works if the text field in the json is set to "text" but in this case, I cannot change the formatting of the json result (code outside my control).
$("#e1").select2({
formatNoMatches: function(term) {return term +" does not match any items." },
ajax: { // instead of writing the function to execute the request we use Select2's convenient helper
url: "localhost:1111/Items.json",
dataType: 'jsonp',
cache: true,
quietMillis: 200,
data: function (term, page) {
return {
q: term, // search term
p: page,
s: 15
};
},
results: function (data, page) { // parse the results into the format expected by Select2.
var numPages = Math.ceil(data.total / 15);
return {results: data.Data, numPages: numPages};
}
}
});
I have looked into the documentation and found some statements you can put into the results such as
text: 'Name',
but I am still getting "text is undefined".
Thanks for any help.
