# Pattern Input Component

## Context and Problem Statement

We need a component which allows us to define patterns containing free text combined with predefined options, that can be selected from a auto-completion/suggestion list.

We did some explorational coding and developed a component using primer base view components and native browser API (in prototype state).

## Decision Drivers

* The component needs to be maintained in future.

* The component must be reusable in different contexts, e.g.

* work package subject configuration

* File Link upload naming

* project name configuration

* The UX for creating the pattern must be intuitive. ❓ (how to measure it?? UI/UX maybe has better words for it.)

* The component must be accessible in regard to WCAG 2.0.

* Angular is considered to be discontinued. ❓


## Considered Options

* Editable container with custom made autocompleter style

* Editable container (text-based) with autocompletion and syntax highlighting

* Editable container with ng-select

* Draggable Editable container with draggable autocompleter with custom text

* Editable container with suggestion hover menu

* Text-only input


## Decision Outcome

_What is the correct decision?_

### Consequences

* _What will be the consequences?_


### Confirmation

_Who confirms this decision?_

## Pros and Cons of the Options

### Option 1

Description

* Good, because ...

* Neutral, because ...

* Bad, because ...


### Option 2

Description

* Good, because ...

* Neutral, because ...

* Bad, because ...
