Paste behavior

You can automatically add tags on paste by passing the add-on-paste prop.

vue

<script setup lang="ts">
import { TagsInputInput, TagsInputItem, TagsInputItemDelete, TagsInputItemText, TagsInputRoot } from 'reka-ui'
</script>

<template>
  <TagsInputRoot
    v-model="modelValue"
    add-on-paste
  >
    …
  </TagsInputRoot>
</template>

Multiple delimiters

You can pass RegExp as delimiter to allow multiple characters to trigger addition of a new tag. When add-on-paste is passed it will be also used to split tags for @paste event.

vue

<script setup lang="ts">
import { TagsInputInput, TagsInputItem, TagsInputItemDelete, TagsInputItemText, TagsInputRoot } from 'reka-ui'

// split by space, comma, semicolon, tab, or newline
const delimiter = /[ ,;\t\n\r]+/
</script>

<template>
  <TagsInputRoot
    v-model="modelValue"
    :delimiter="delimiter"
    add-on-paste
  >
    …
  </TagsInputRoot>
</template>
