I've create an autocomplete search input bar using AWS Cloudscape. When I attempt to use the onSelect to save state, it does not save state. When I select a second item from the search bar, the first item then shows up. I assume this is a state async issue. I need the most recent selection, how do I get that?
import React from "react";
import Regions from "./trailforks_regions.json"
import RegionNames from "./region_names.json"
import * as dfd from "danfojs";
import { Autosuggest } from '@cloudscape-design/components';
export class AutoCompleteInputComponent extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
df: new dfd.DataFrame(Regions),
value: null,
final_value: "",
options: [],
status: "loading",
regionContext: [],
uri_value: "",
loaded: false
};
}
lookupRegionUriName() {
console.log("Checking for uri region name on:" + this.state.final_value)
let region_name_split = this.state.final_value.split(",")[0]
let query_df = this.state.df.query(this.state.df["name"].eq(region_name_split))
let uri_name = query_df["region_uri_name"].values
console.log("found:" + uri_name)
return uri_name
}
handleChange = event => {
this.setState({ value: event.detail.value });
};
handleSelect = event => {
console.log(event) // This shows the correct data! But the set state does not set this data.
this.setState({ final_value: event.detail.value });
this.lookupRegionUriName(this.state.final_value)
};
handleLoadItems = ({ detail: { filteringText, firstPage, samePage } }) => {
this.filteringText = filteringText;
var my_options = RegionNames.filter(regions => regions.toLowerCase().startsWith(this.filteringText.toLowerCase()))
var region_values = []
for (var i = 0; i <= my_options.length; i++) {
region_values.push({ value: my_options[i] })
}
this.setState({
options: region_values.slice(0, 25),
status: 'loading',
});
};
enteredTextLabel = value => `Use: "${value}"`;
renderInput() {
if (this.state.df != null) {
const { status, value, options, final_value, uri_value } = this.state;
return (
<>
<Autosuggest
onChange={this.handleChange}
onSelect={this.handleSelect}
onLoadItems={this.handleLoadItems}
value={value}
options={options}
enteredTextLabel={this.enteredTextLabel}
ariaLabel="Autosuggest example with suggestions"
placeholder="Enter Trailforks Region Name"
empty="No matches found"
finishedText={this.filteringText ? `End of "${this.filteringText}" results` : 'End of all results'}
//status={status}
loadingText="searching"
filteringType="manual"
/>
</>
)
} else {
return (<></>)
}
}
render() {
return (
<>
{this.renderInput()}
</>
)
}
}

Figured it out. It was a state issue, here are the changes for future people:
