Feature Request: Make multi-select a HOC like Creatable rather than prop on Select?

See original GitHub issue

Thanks for maintaining react-select!

Currently, there is a problem with simple distinction between single and multi selects. I was wondering a lot why ValueType contains null type rather then just leaving an empty array when I was working on multiselect components. Then, from some issue I’ve understood that it is because of single selects which can be nullable.

But because of this I have to write [...(existingOptions === null ? [] : existingOptions), newOption] in every onChange listener. It causes also weird bugs like #3632.

I think that multi select functionality should be rather implemented as a higher-order component like Creatable rather than part of Select itself.

It looks like it works, but I can not say it sure, because I have ton of problems with types after upgrading. So I will rather wait for rewrite to TS which ensures there are correct type definitions and proper documentation of the type system so that I can be sure the problem is on my side. 🙂

Hi guys, thanks for answering and for your work. I’ll try to upgrade to latest version soon and see what it looks like now. I did not see the code for a while so I can not say right now.
