Creating a live user filter using HTML and JavaScript involves creating a search input that filters through a list of users as you type. Below is an example of how to achieve this:
HTML
First, set up the basic structure with a search input and a list of users.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" /> <title>Live User Filter</title> </head> <body> <div class="container"> <header class="header"> <h4 class="title">Live User Filter</h4> <small class="subtitle">Search by name and/or location</small> <input type="text" id="filter" placeholder="Search"> </header> <ul id="result" class="user-list"> <li> <h3>Loading...</h3> </li> </ul> </div> <script src="script.js"></script> </body> </html>
CSS
Style the input and list to make it look clean.
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;700&display=swap'); * { box-sizing: border-box; } body { background-color: #f8f9fd; font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; height: 100vh; overflow: hidden; margin: 0; } .container { border-radius: 5px; box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); overflow: hidden; width: 300px; } .title { margin: 0; } .subtitle { display: inline-block; margin: 5px 0 20px; opacity: 0.8; } .header { background-color: #3e57db; color: #fff; padding: 30px 20px; } .header input { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3); border: 0; border-radius: 50px; color: #fff; font-size: 14px; padding: 10px 15px; width: 100%; } .header input:focus { outline: none; } .user-list { background-color: #fff; list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; max-height: 400px; overflow-y: auto; } .user-list li { display: flex; padding: 20px; } .user-list img { border-radius: 50%; object-fit: cover; height: 50px; width: 50px; } .user-list .user-info { margin-left: 10px; } .user-list .user-info h4 { margin: 0 0 10px; } .user-list .user-info p { font-size: 12px; } .user-list li:not(:last-of-type) { border-bottom: 1px solid #eee; } .user-list li.hide { display: none; }
JavaScript
Add functionality to filter the user list based on the search input.
const result = document.getElementById('result') const filter = document.getElementById('filter') const listItems = [] getData() filter.addEventListener('input', (e) => filterData(e.target.value)) async function getData() { const res = await fetch('https://randomuser.me/api?results=50') const { results } = await res.json() // Clear result result.innerHTML = '' results.forEach(user => { const li = document.createElement('li') listItems.push(li) li.innerHTML = ` <img src="${user.picture.large}" alt="${user.name.first}"> <div class="user-info"> <h4>${user.name.first} ${user.name.last}</h4> <p>${user.location.city}, ${user.location.country}</p> </div> ` result.appendChild(li) }) } function filterData(searchTerm) { listItems.forEach(item => { if(item.innerText.toLowerCase().includes(searchTerm.toLowerCase())) { item.classList.remove('hide') } else { item.classList.add('hide') } }) }
Explanation
- HTML:
- A simple input field for the search functionality.
- An unordered list (
<ul>
) with list items (<li>
) representing the users.
- CSS:
- Styles to ensure the input and list look clean and are easy to interact with.
- JavaScript:
- An event listener on the search input that listens for the
keyup
event. - The
keyup
event is triggered whenever a key is released after being pressed. - The value of the input is used to filter through the list of users.
- Each list item is checked to see if it contains the filter text. If it does, it is displayed; otherwise, it is hidden.
- An event listener on the search input that listens for the
This setup creates a live filter that updates as the user types, providing immediate feedback and a smooth user experience.
