Component aliases
<b-form-tags>
can also be used via the following aliases:
<b-tags>
Note: component aliases are only available when importing all of BootstrapVue or using the component group plugin.
Lightweight custom tagged input form control, with options for customized interface rendering, duplicate tag detection and optional tag validation.
Available in BootstrapVue since v2.2.0
Tags are arrays of short strings, used in various ways such as assigning categories. Use the default user interface, or create your own custom interface via the use of the default scoped slot.
Tags will have any leading and tailing whitespace removed, and duplicate tags are not permitted. Tags that contain spaces are permitted by default.
Tags are added by clicking the Add button, pressing the Enter key or optionally when the change
event fires on the new tag input (i.e. when focus moves from the input). The Add button will only appear when the user has entered a new tag value.
Default render:
<template>
<div>
<label for="tags-basic">Type a new tag and press enter</label>
<b-form-tags input-id="tags-basic" v-model="value"></b-form-tags>
<p class="mt-2">Value: {{ value }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
value: ['apple', 'orange']
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- form-tags-example.vue -->
You can disable adding a new tag when pressing Enter via the no-add-on-enter
prop, and enable adding a tag on the input's change
event via the add-on-change
prop.
To auto create tags when a separator character is typed (i.e. Space, ,, etc.), set the separator
prop to the character that will trigger the tag to be added. If multiple separator characters are needed, then include them as a single string (i.e. ' ,;'
), or an array of characters (i.e. [' ', ',', ';']
), which will trigger a new tag to be added when Space, ,, or ; are typed). Separators must be a single character.
The following example will auto create a tag when Space, ,, or ; are typed:
<template>
<div>
<label for="tags-separators">Enter tags separated by space, comma or semicolon</label>
<b-form-tags
input-id="tags-separators"
v-model="value"
separator=" ,;"
placeholder="Enter new tags separated by space, comma or semicolon"
no-add-on-enter
></b-form-tags>
<p class="mt-2">Value: {{ value }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
value: ['one', 'two']
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- form-tags-separator.vue -->
When the prop remove-on-delete
is set, and the user presses Backspace (or Del) and the input value is empty, the last tag in the tag list will be removed.
<template>
<div>
<label for="tags-remove-on-delete">Enter new tags separated by space</label>
<b-form-tags
input-id="tags-remove-on-delete"
:input-attrs="{ 'aria-describedby': 'tags-remove-on-delete-help' }"
v-model="value"
separator=" "
placeholder="Enter new tags separated by space"
remove-on-delete
no-add-on-enter
></b-form-tags>
<b-form-text id="tags-remove-on-delete-help" class="mt-2">
Press <kbd>Backspace</kbd> to remove the last tag entered
</b-form-text>
<p>Value: {{ value }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
value: ['apple', 'orange', 'grape']
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- form-tags-remove-on-delete.vue -->
Several props are available to alter the basic styling of the default tagged interface:
Prop | Description |
---|---|
tag-pills | Renders the tags with the appearance of pills |
tag-variant | Applies one of the Bootstrap contextual variant theme colors to the tags |
size | Set the size of the component's appearance. 'sm', 'md' (default), or 'lg' |
placeholder | The placeholder text for the new tag input element |
state | Sets the contextual state of the control. Set to true (for valid), false (for invalid), or null |
disabled | Places the component in a disabled state |
For additional props, see the component reference section at the bottom of this page.
The focus and validation state styling of the component relies upon BootstrapVue's custom CSS.
<template>
<div>
<label for="tags-pills">Enter tags</label>
<b-form-tags
input-id="tags-pills"
v-model="value"
tag-variant="primary"
tag-pills
size="lg"
separator=" "
placeholder="Enter new tags separated by space"
></b-form-tags>
<p class="mt-2">Value: {{ value }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
value: ['apple', 'orange', 'grape']
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- form-tags-style-options.vue -->
<form>
submissionThe value of the tagged input will not be submitted via standard form action
unless you provide a name via the name
prop. When a name is provided, <b-form-tags>
will create a hidden <input>
for each tag. The hidden input will have the name
attribute set to the value of the name
prop.
The hidden inputs will also be generated when using custom rendering (when the name
prop is set).
By default, <b-form-tags>
detects when the user is attempting to enter a (case-sensitive) duplicate tag, and will provide integrated feedback to the user.
You can optionally provide a tag validator method via the tag-validator
prop. The validator function will receive one argument which is the tag being added, and should return either true
if the tag passes validation and can be added, or false
if the tag fails validation (in which case it is not added to the array of tags). Integrated feedback will be provided to the user listing the invalid tag(s) that could not be added.
Tag validation occurs only for tags added via user input. Changes to the tags via the v-model
are not validated.
<template>
<div>
<b-form-group label="Tags validation example" label-for="tags-validation" :state="state">
<b-form-tags
input-id="tags-validation"
v-model="tags"
:input-attrs="{ 'aria-describedby': 'tags-validation-help' }"
:tag-validator="tagValidator"
:state="state"

></b-form-tags>
<template #invalid-feedback>

</template>
<template #description>
<div id="tags-validation-help">
Tags must be 3 to 5 characters in length and all lower
case. Enter tags separated by spaces or press enter.
</div>
</template>
</b-form-group>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
tags: [],
dirty: false
}
},
computed: {
state() {
// Overall component validation state
return this.dirty ? (this.tags.length > 2 && this.tags.length < 9) : null
}
},
watch: {
tags(newValue, oldValue) {
// Set the dirty flag on first change to the tags array
this.dirty = true
}
},
methods: {
tagValidator(tag) {
// Individual tag validator function
return tag === tag.toLowerCase() && tag.length > 2 && tag.length < 6
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- b-form-tags-validation-feedback.vue -->
The event tag-state
will be emitted whenever new tags are entered into the new tag input element, tags that do not pass validation, or duplicate tags are detected. The event handler will receive three arrays as its arguments:
validTags
(tags that pass validation)invalidTags
(tags that do not pass validation)duplicateTags
(tags that would be a duplicate of existing or validTags).The event will be emitted only when the new tag input changes (characters are entered that would be considered part of a tag), or when the user attempts to add a tag (i.e. via Enter, clicking the Add button, or entering a separator). The three arrays will be empty when the user clears the new tag input element (or contains just spaces).
If you are providing your own feedback for duplicate and invalid tags (via the use of the tag-state
event) outside of the <b-form-tags>
component, you can disable the built in duplicate and invalid messages by setting the props duplicate-tag-text
and invalid-tag-text
(respectively) to either an empty string (''
) or null
.
<template>
<div>
<label for="tags-state-event">Enter tags</label>
<b-form-tags
input-id="tags-state-event"
v-model="tags"
:tag-validator="validator"
placeholder="Enter tags (3-5 characters) separated by space"
separator=" "
@tag-state="onTagState"
></b-form-tags>
<p class="mt-2">Tags: {{ tags }}</p>
<p>Event values:</p>

export default {
data() {
return {

}
},
methods: {
onTagState(valid, invalid, duplicate) {
this.validTags = valid
this.invalidTags = invalid
this.duplicateTags = duplicate
},
validator(tag) {
return tag.length > 2 && tag.length < 6
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- b-form-tags-tags-state-event.vue -->
If you want to limit the amount of tags the user is able to add use the limit
prop. When configured, adding more tags than the limit
allows is only possible by the v-model
.
When the limit of tags is reached, the user is still able to type but adding more tags is disabled. A message is shown to give the user feedback about the reached limit. This message can be configured by the limit-tags-text
prop. Setting it to either an empty string (''
) or null
will disable the feedback.
Removing tags is unaffected by the limit
prop.
<template>
<div>
<label for="tags-limit">Enter tags</label>
<b-form-tags input-id="tags-limit" v-model="value" :limit="limit" remove-on-delete></b-form-tags>
<p class="mt-2">Value: {{ value }}</p>

return {
value: [],

}
}
}
</script>
<!-- b-form-tags-limit.vue -->
If you fancy a different look and feel for the tags control, you can provide your own custom rendering via the default scoped slot. You can either create your own tags, or use our helper <b-form-tag>
component.
The default scoped slot provides numerous properties and methods for use in rendering your custom interface. Not all properties or methods are required to generate your interface.
The default slot scope properties are as follows:
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
addButtonText | String | The value of the add-button-text prop |
addButtonVariant | String | The value of the add-button-variant prop |
addTag | Function | Method to add a new tag. Assumes the tag is the value of the input, but optionally accepts one argument which is the tag value to be added |
disableAddButton | Boolean | Will be true if the tag(s) in the input cannot be added (all invalid and/or duplicates) |
disabled | Boolean | true if the component is in the disabled state. Value of the disabled prop |
duplicateTagText | String | The value of the duplicate-tag-text prop |
duplicateTags | Array | Array of the duplicate tag(s) the user has entered |

isInvalid | Boolean | true if the user input contains invalid tag(s) |
isLimitReached | Boolean | v2.17.0+ true if a limit is configured and the amount of tags has reached the limit |
limitTagsText | String | v2.17.0+ The value of the limit-tags-text prop |
limit | String | v2.17.0+ The value of the limit prop |
noTagRemove | Boolean | v2.21.0+ The value of the no-tag-remove prop |
placeholder | String | The value of the placeholder prop |
removeTag | Function | Method to remove a tag. Accepts one argument which is the tag value to remove |

inputAttrs
object propertiesThe inputAttrs
object contains attributes to bind (v-bind
) to the new tag input element.
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
disabled | Boolean | The disabled attribute for the new tag input. Value of the disabled prop |
form | String | The form attribute for the new tag input. Value of the form prop |
id | String | the id attribute for the new tag input |
value | String | The value attribute for the new tag input |
The inputAttrs
object will also include any attributes set via the input-attrs
prop. Note that the above attributes take precedence over any of the same attributes specified in the input-attrs
prop.
inputHandlers
object propertiesThe inputHandlers
object contains event handlers to bind (v-on
) to the new tag input element.
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
change | Function | Event handler for the input element change event. Accepts a single argument of either an event object or a string. Change will trigger adding the tag. |
input | Function | Event handler for the input element input event. Accepts a single argument of either an event object or a string. Updates the internal v-model for the new tag input element |
keydown | Function | Event handler for the input element keydown Enter and Del events. Accepts a single argument which is the native keydown event object |
The change
handler, when needed, must be enabled via the add-on-change
prop, otherwise it is a noop method.
The scope contains attributes and event handlers that can be directly bound to native <input>
or <select>
elements.
The following example includes the suggested ARIA attributes and roles needed for screen-reader support.
<template>
<div>

<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
value: ['apple', 'orange', 'banana', 'pear', 'peach']
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- form-tags-custom-native.vue -->
The scope contains attributes and event handlers that can be directly bound to most custom inputs or select components (the event handlers accept either a string tag value or a native event object). Any component that emits input
as characters are typed, and (optionally) emits change
when the input value changes (i.e on blur or select), and uses the prop value
as the v-model, should work without modification.
In this example, we are using the <b-form-tag>
helper component, but feel free to render tags using standard HTML or components.

}
},
computed: {
availableOptions() {
return this.options.filter(opt => this.value.indexOf(opt) === -1)
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- b-form-tags-components-select.vue -->
If the custom input is using custom event names that mimic input
and change
, and/or needs the .native
modifier for keydown, you can do something similar to below to bind the event handlers:
<template #default="{ inputAttrs, inputHandlers, removeTag, tags }">
<custom-input
:id="inputAttrs.id"
:vistom-value-prop="inputAttrs.value"
@custom-input-event="inputHandlers.input($event)"
@custom-change-event="inputHandlers.change($event)"
@keydown.native="inputHandlers.keydown($event)"
></custom-input>
<template v-for="tag in tags">
<!-- Your custom tag list here -->
</template>
</template>
The inputHandlers.input
handler must be bound to an event that updates with each character entered by the user for the as-you-type tag validation to work.
In situations where the inputHandlers
will not work with your custom input, or if you need greater control over tag creation, you can take advantage of the additional properties provided via the default slot's scope.
<template>
<div>
<b-form-checkbox switch size="lg" v-model="disabled">Disable</b-form-checkbox>

<b-form-tag>
helper componentBootstrapVue provides the helper component <b-form-tag>
, for use with the default scoped slot of <b-form-tags>
. The component is based upon <b-badge>
and <b-button-close>
.
<b-form-tag>
supports the same variants as <b-badge>
and also supports pill
styling. Sizing is based on the containing element's font-size.
The remove
event is emitted when the <b-form-tag>
remove button is clicked.
Tags that are too wide for their parent container will automatically have their text content truncated with an ellipsis. For this reason, it is always good practice to supply a title via the title
prop when using the default slot of <b-form-tag>
for the tag content.
Note <b-form-tag>
requires BootstrapVue's custom CSS/SCSS for proper styling.
