NativeSelect

Install: npm install @mantine/core@9.7.1 @mantine/hooks@9.7.1

Version and compatibility

Pinned Mantine Core 9.7.1 requires React and React DOM ^19.2.0 and matching @mantine/hooks@9.7.1, from the installed npm package's peerDependencies. Do not force it into React 18 or another incompatible version. Explain upgrade impact and agree on a plan with the project owner; do not hide conflicts with --force/--legacy-peer-deps. The native Provider enables theme.respectReducedMotion and uses forceColorScheme for light/dark.

Use case

Use the browser's native select interaction.

Native props used by this example

These props are extracted from the local typechecked JSX and grouped by their owning native component. This is not an exhaustive prop list; see pinned source signatures and inheritance below.

Interaction and state checks

Current scenarios: Default, Disabled, Invalid. Check actual behavior after selecting supported disabled/error/read-only scenarios; components without those native states do not receive invented universal props. Verify keyboard focus and exits, then connect changed values through the native callback signature.

Business integration boundary

Uses a native select event, not the nullable value callback of Select. Do not swap the two APIs.

Host setup

Install pinned @mantine/core and @mantine/hooks, import @mantine/core/styles.css at the entry and use MantineProvider. The example's theme/variant are JGuang-authored host props, not universal native component APIs; forceColorScheme synchronizes the app theme. Native implementation source is a reading reference: use npm exports rather than copying internal engines. This batch covers Core, not dates/charts/forms extension packages. Detailed upstream prose remains English.

Runnable usage

import { useState } from 'react';
import * as M from '@mantine/core';
import '@mantine/core/styles.css';

const fruit = ["Apple", "Banana", "Orange"];
function ComponentPreview({ variant = 'Default' }: { variant?: string }) {
const disabled = variant === "Disabled";
const invalid = variant === "Invalid";
return <M.NativeSelect disabled={disabled} error={invalid ? "Choose a fruit / 请选择水果" : undefined} label="Fruit" data={fruit} />;
}
export default function Example({ variant = 'Default', theme = 'light' }: { variant?: string; theme?: 'light' | 'dark' }) {
return <M.MantineProvider forceColorScheme={theme} theme={{ respectReducedMotion: true }}><ComponentPreview variant={variant} /></M.MantineProvider>;
}

Preview states

Default, Disabled, Invalid

The example uses the native Mantine API. For supported input demos, change the local variant to Disabled, Invalid or Read only; these are example labels, not new component props. Keep the documented data, controlled values, stores and compound children when adapting the example.

Usage

Loading state

Set loading prop to display a loading indicator. By default, the loader is displayed on the right side of the input. You can change the position with the loadingPosition prop to 'left' or 'right'. This is useful for async operations like API calls, searches, or validations:

Controlled

import { useState } from 'react';
import { NativeSelect } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState('');

  return (
    <NativeSelect
      value={value}
      onChange={(event) => setValue(event.currentTarget.value)}
      data={['React', 'Angular', 'Svelte', 'Vue']}
    />
  );
}

Uncontrolled

NativeSelect can be used with uncontrolled forms the same way as a native select element. Set the name attribute to include native select value in FormData object on form submission. To control the initial value in uncontrolled forms, use the defaultValue prop.

Example usage of uncontrolled NativeSelect with FormData:

import { NativeSelect } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <form
      onSubmit={(event) => {
        event.preventDefault();
        const formData = new FormData(event.currentTarget);
        console.log('Select value:', formData.get('framework'));
      }}
    >
      <NativeSelect
        label="Select a framework"
        name="framework"
        data={['React', 'Angular', 'Svelte', 'Vue']}
        defaultValue="React"
      />
      <button type="submit">Submit</button>
    </form>
  );
}

Adding options

NativeSelect allows passing options in two ways:

• data prop array
• children prop with option components

Note that if children is used, the data will be ignored.

data prop

The data prop accepts values in one of the following formats:

1. Array of strings:

import { NativeSelect } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <NativeSelect data={['React', 'Angular', 'Svelte', 'Vue']} />
  );
}

2. Array of objects with label, value and disabled keys:

import { NativeSelect } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <NativeSelect
      data={[
        { label: 'React', value: 'react' },
        { label: 'Angular', value: 'angular' },
        { label: 'Svelte', value: 'svelte', disabled: true },
        { label: 'Vue', value: 'vue' },
      ]}
    />
  );
}

3. Array of grouped options (string format):

import { NativeSelect } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <NativeSelect
      data={[
        {
          group: 'Frontend libraries',
          items: ['React', 'Angular', 'Svelte', 'Vue'],
        },
        {
          group: 'Backend libraries',
          items: ['Express', 'Koa', 'Django'],
        },
      ]}
    />
  );
}

4. Array of grouped options (object format):

import { NativeSelect } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <NativeSelect
      data={[
        {
          group: 'Frontend libraries',
          items: [
            { label: 'React', value: 'react' },
            { label: 'Angular', value: 'angular' },
            { label: 'Vue', value: 'vue', disabled: true },
          ],
        },
        {
          group: 'Backend libraries',
          items: [
            { label: 'Express', value: 'express' },
            { label: 'Koa', value: 'koa' },
            { label: 'Django', value: 'django' },
          ],
        },
      ]}
    />
  );
}

Example of the data prop with an array of grouped options:

children options

To add options with the children prop, use option elements to add options and optgroup elements to group them:

With dividers

Use hr tags to add dividers between options:

Disabled state

Error state

Success state

Source-backed parameter reference

Implementation signatures and types are generated from the pinned local source. Optional props, native inherited types, union branches and never exclusions are preserved. A forwardRef implementation's ref is a React reference, not an additional business prop.

Native and external types

External types remain defined by React or native dependencies, not manually expanded into guessed props. The installed version's TypeScript definitions are authoritative.
