I'm currently working on a project utilizing Laravel 8 and Vue 3, and I have a Student Component. Within this component, there is a datalist that allows me to search for existing students. When I select a student from the list, I want the corresponding data from my database to populate the fields.
I've attempted using vueJs and v-model, but I'm only able to retrieve the string in the input of the datalist. Additionally, when trying to retrieve the data, I encounter issues where I receive [object Object] in either the field or datalist input.
Here's a snippet of my code:
//This section contains the data of my trainees who are the students
data() {
return {
trainees: [],
},
//This method is used to fetch the student details from the database
methods: {
getTrainee() {
axios.get(AXIOS + 'trainee')
.then(response => this.trainees = response.data)
.catch(error => console.log(error));
},
},
<!--The following excerpt is part of my student component, featuring the datalist for finding students-->
<div class="search_trainee">
<input id="search" class="search_trainee_input" list="trainees" placeholder=" "
type="text">
<label class="label_search" for="search">Search a trainee</label>
<datalist id="trainees">
<option v-for="user in trainees" :key="user.id">
{{ user.firstname }} {{ user.lastname }}
</option>
</datalist>
</div>
<!--In another part of my Student component, I aim to auto-fill my fields with selected student data-->
