*/
this.$emit("option:created", newOption);
```
## `search`
Anytime the search string changes, emit the
'search' event. The event is passed with two
parameters: the search string, and a function
that accepts a boolean parameter to toggle the
loading state.
See the [AJAX Guide](/guide/ajax.html#loading-options-with-ajax)
for a complete example.
```js
/**
* @param {String} searchString - the search string
* @param {Function} toggleLoading - function to toggle loading state, accepts true or false boolean
*/
this.$emit('search', this.search, this.toggleLoading);
```
```vue
<!-- example usage -->
<v-select
@search="(search, loading) => {
loading(true)
fetchOptions(search).then(() => loading(false))
}"
/>
```
## `search:blur`
Triggered when the text input loses focus. The dropdown will close immediately before this
event is triggered.
```js
this.$emit("search:blur");
```
## `search:focus`
Triggered when the text input gains focus. The dropdown will open immediately before this
event is triggered.
```js
this.$emit("search:focus");
```
