Outputs

Property	Description	Type
infiniteScroll	Emitted when the scroller inside the mat-select reaches the required distance.	EventEmitter<void>

Installation

npm i ng-mat-select-infinite-scroll

Usage

StackBlitz working example

Import MatSelectInfiniteScrollModule inside the app.module.ts:

import { MatFormFieldModule } from '@angular/material/form-field';
import { MatSelectModule } from '@angular/material/select';
import { MatSelectInfiniteScrollModule } from 'ng-mat-select-infinite-scroll';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    MatFormFieldModule,
    MatSelectModule,
    MatSelectInfiniteScrollModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {}

Then, place the msInfiniteScroll directive on the mat-select component:

<mat-form-field appearance="outline">
  <mat-label>Select</mat-label>
  <mat-select msInfiniteScroll (infiniteScroll)="getNextBatch()" [complete]="offset === data.length">
    <mat-option *ngFor="let option of options$ | async" [value]="option">{{option}}</mat-option>
  </mat-select>
</mat-form-field>

Note:
Update the complete property when the loaded data reaches the total available data to avoid unnecessary scroll triggers.
For older versions of Angular (<15), use version 4 of this library.
