Apply a suggestion on comma key pressed

[ghost]

It would be great if UI will apply a suggesstion when comma pressed as like it works now with enter key.

For example, typing "jav,gr,int,win," will select Java, Gradle, IntelliJ and Windows.

I know one can use enter key for that, this just a small additional convenience for users :)

I played with this for a little bit a few days ago; there is no quick parameter that can be set in Select2 that enables this. This can be done, but it requires listening to select2 events and manually triggering the effect.

I re-looked into this when I was updating the site. Select 2 has a way to use arbitrary keys to select a tag, but that seems to just act as pressing down and not as pressing enter. I'll keep looking into whether or not this is possible.

Too lazy to fork... but you can add a new if here to listen for key code 188 (or whatever other keys you want) and select with $(".ignore-search").data('select2').results.trigger('results:select')
you will want to preventDefault on that event as well.

EDIT: not in that handler, but that bit of code will trigger selection

$(".ignore-search").on("select2:open", _=>{
    $(".select2-search__field").keydown(e=>{
        if ($(".ignore-search").data('select2').$results.attr('aria-expanded') === "true" && e.keyCode==188){
          $(".ignore-search").data('select2').results.trigger('results:select');
          e.preventDefault();
        }
    });
});

That should do it.

J'ai des difficulté avec Github.
Je suis encore un novice en ce qui concerne le codage et j'avoue avoir de grande difficulté a mettre en œuvre les conseils de Github ou les tuto sur cette application de codage.
Je vais metre du temps a comprendre et a utiliser Github comme il ce dois.
Merci a vous et bonne année 2022
