# Combobox Component
**Type:** Complex Interactive Component (Type 3)
**Status:** Production-Ready
**Tokens:** 100% Canonical (64 tokens aplicados)
**Famílias:** C + B + A (Forms + Selection + Overlay)
---
## Purpose
Rich autocomplete select with search, filtering, and overlay. Designed for large option lists (>50 items) where native Select UX is insufficient.
**⚠️ Important:** Use **Select** for simple lists. See `/docs/canon/12-select-vs-combobox.md` for decision guide.
---
## Usage
```rust
use rs_design::ui::combobox::*;
// Basic combobox
let selected = RwSignal::new(String::new());
let countries = vec![
ComboboxOption::new("us", "United States"),
ComboboxOption::new("br", "Brazil"),
ComboboxOption::new("uk", "United Kingdom"),
];
<Combobox
options=countries
value=selected
placeholder="Select country..."
search_placeholder="Search countries..."
/>
// With validation
<Combobox
options=users
value=selected_user
validation=ComboboxValidation::Error
placeholder="Select user..."
/>
// Different sizes
<Combobox
options=items
value=selected
size=Some(ComboboxSize::Lg)
/>
// With disabled options
let options = vec![
ComboboxOption::new("1", "Available"),
ComboboxOption::new("2", "Busy").disabled(),
ComboboxOption::new("3", "Available"),
];
<Combobox options=options value=selected />
```

## Select vs Combobox Decision Guide
Use **Select** when:
- List has < 50 items
- No search needed
- SSR is critical
- Mobile-first
- Native UX preferred
Use **Combobox** when:
- List has > 50 items
- Search/filter essential
- Rich UX needed
- Desktop-first
- Custom overlay required

## Canon Rules Applied
- **Rule #1 (Types):** Type 3 (Complex Interactive)
- **Rule #5 (SSR):** Partial SSR (Popover client-side)
- **Canon (Visual State):** 100% token-driven
- **Canon (Família A):** Overlay compliant
- **Canon (Família B):** Selection compliant
- **Canon (Família C):** Forms compliant

## Examples
### Form Integration
```rust
<Field validation=country_validation>
<FieldLabel r#for="country">"Country"</FieldLabel>
<Combobox
options=countries
value=selected_country
placeholder="Select your country"
search_placeholder="Search countries..."
validation=country_validation
/>
<FieldError errors=country_errors />
</Field>
```
### Dynamic/Async Options
```rust
let users = Resource::new(
|| (),
|_| async { fetch_users().await }
);
Ok(users) => view! {
<Combobox
options=users.into_iter()
.map(|u| ComboboxOption::new(u.id, u.name))
.collect()
value=selected_user
/>
},
Err(_) => view! { <p>"Error loading users"</p> }
})}
</Suspense>
```
### With Custom Empty State
```rust
<Combobox
options=products
value=selected_product
empty_message="No products match your search. Try different keywords."
search_placeholder="Search products by name or SKU..."
/>
```
---
## Performance Notes
- **Filtering:** O(n) on each keystroke - use for lists < 1000 items
- **Rendering:** Virtual scrolling NOT implemented - consider for lists > 500 items
- **SSR:** Popover mounts client-side (acceptable trade-off for UX)
- **Bundle:** ~8KB (includes Popover dependency)
For lists > 1000 items, consider server-side search or pagination.
