Matches tedi-form-field, where clearable defaults to true since #572. clearable also accepts a bare attribute now. Pagination's page-size select and the table demo's location cell opt out, since their value must stay set.

An empty-string value now means nothing is selected, like null, so a select bound to new FormControl('') starts empty with its placeholder instead of showing a clear button.

BREAKING CHANGE: tedi-select's clearable now defaults to true, so selects that showed no clear button now show one once they have a value. Pass [clearable]="false" to opt out.
BREAKING CHANGE: an option with value '' now leaves the select empty instead of showing as selected. Use showSelectAll for "select all" in a multiselect, or the placeholder to label the empty state.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Select controls can now be cleared by default, with an option to disable clearing.
    • Empty-string values are treated as no selection in single-select and multiselect controls.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Page-size and editable location selectors no longer show a clear control where clearing is disabled.
    • Selecting an empty-valued option resets the selection consistently.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

SelectComponent now enables clearing by default and treats empty strings as no selection. The pagination page-size select and table location editor explicitly disable clearing.

Changes

Select behavior and integrations

Layer / File(s) Summary
Select defaults and value normalization
src/tedi/components/form/select/select.component.ts, src/tedi/components/form/select/select.component.spec.ts, src/tedi/components/form/select/select.stories.ts
clearable defaults to true and uses booleanAttribute. Empty strings normalize to no selection in single-select mode and are removed from multiselect values. Tests and Storybook metadata cover the updated behavior.
Non-clearable select consumers
src/tedi/components/navigation/pagination/pagination.component.html, src/tedi/components/navigation/pagination/pagination.component.spec.ts, src/tedi/components/content/table/table-demo.constants.ts
The pagination page-size select and the table location editor set clearable to false. The pagination test checks that its page-size select has no clear control.

Change: Feature

Suggested reviewers: mart-sessman

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3cd85

Selecting an option whose value is an empty string in a multiselect can show a selected tag and a clear button, while writing the same value programmatically leaves the select empty. Fix this inconsistency before merging. The clearable default change itself is handled by the explicit opt-outs.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3cd85

The new default exposes a keyboard-accessible clear action on disabled selects, weakening their value-preservation guarantee. Pagination and the table location editor explicitly opt out. The demonstrated impact is local form-state mutation; broader authorization or data-access impact has not been established.

Retained concerns

  • Low · architecture · inferred: Default clearing expands a pre-existing disabled-state enforcement gap. A populated disabled select now renders an enabled native clear button unless explicitly opted out. Keyboard activation reaches clear(), which clears internal selection and emits form-value and selection callbacks without checking disabled state. Pointer-event suppression does not enforce the same restriction for keyboard interaction. This weakens the component's value-preservation contract, although server-side authorization impact is not established.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The newly exposed disabled-clear path applies to populated Select instances that previously relied on the false default and do not now opt out. Its demonstrated scope is component selection and existing form callbacks. The supplied dependent evidence does not establish tenant, service, credential, or data-store exposure.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A user with access to the rendered control can keyboard-activate its native clear button while the Select is disabled, reaching unguarded selection mutation and callbacks. This is an expanded UI control-integrity gap, not evidence of bypassing server-side authorization.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Countercontrols include disabled pointer-event styling, disabled search and hidden inputs, and explicit non-clearable settings on both named value-preserving consumers. These controls limit pointer interaction and ordinary form submission, but do not disable the clear button's keyboard handlers.
