Set a value programatically

Hi! I need to set a value to the Typeahead programmatically and I can’t seem to find the correct way, I used defaultValue but it does not work, any ideas?

Thanks a lot! Fran

Hi, What you guys think about something like that: https://github.com/yurynix/react-typeahead/commit/1a963818adeded7d1400e44fd521af2df4c246db

It works for my scenario, I update the value in the parent component when user clicks on some buttons. I render Typeahead like this:

        <Typeahead ref="typeahead"
         ...
          value={this.props.value}
         ...
        />

I would even go so far as to request the support of a valueLink prop to use with ReactLink on controlled components, but this is just nice sugar on top of support for a controlled value prop, so it isn’t necessary.
