How to get the text of the selected option using vuejs?

I had this issue, where I needed to get a data attribute from a selected option, this is how I handled it:

<select @change="handleChange">
    <option value="1" data-foo="bar123">Bar</option>
    <option value="2" data-foo="baz456">Baz</option>
    <option value="3" data-foo="fiz789">Fiz</option>
</select>

and in the Vue methods:

methods: {
    handleChange(e) {
        if(e.target.options.selectedIndex > -1) {
            console.log(e.target.options[e.target.options.selectedIndex].dataset.foo)
        }
    }
}

But you can change it to get innerText or whatever. If you're using jQuery you can $(e).find(':selected').data('foo') or $(e).find(':selected').text() to be a bit shorter.

If you are binding a model to the select element, it will only return the value (if set) or the contents of the option if there is no value set (like it would on submitting a form).

** EDIT **

I would say that the answer @MrMojoRisin gave is a much more elegant way of solving this.

The below code worked to get the Text from the selected option. I added a v-on:change , which calls a function onChange() to the select element.

methods:{
    onChange: function(e){
        var id = e.target.value;
        var name = e.target.options[e.target.options.selectedIndex].text;
        console.log('id ',id );
        console.log('name ',name );
    },


 <select name="customerName" id="" v-on:change="onChangeSite($event)">
         <option value="1">Jan</option>
         <option value="2">Doe</option>
         <option value="3">Khan</option>
   </select>

Instead of define the value only as the id, you can bind the selected value with an object with two attributes: value and text. For example with products:

<div id="app">
   <select v-model="selected">
       <option v-for="product in products" v-bind:value="{ id: product.id, text: product.name }">
         {{ product.name }}
       </option>
   </select>
</div>

Then you can access to the text through the "value":

   <h1>Value:
     {{selected.id}}
   </h1>
   <h1>Text:
     {{selected.text}}
   </h1>

Working example

var app = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
  	selected: '',
    products: [
      {id: 1, name: 'A'},
      {id: 2, name: 'B'},
      {id: 3, name: 'C'}
    ]
  }
})

<div id="app">
   <select v-model="selected">
       <option v-for="product in products" v-bind:value="{ id: product.id, text: product.name }">{{ product.name }}
       </option>
   </select>
   <h1>Value:
   {{selected.id}}
   </h1>
   <h1>Text:
   {{selected.text}}
   </h1>
</div>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/vue.js"></script>

Assuming you have a customers list and a selected customer on your model, an example like below should work perfect:

<select v-model="theCustomer">
    <option :value="customer" v-for="customer in customers">{{customer.name}}</option>
</select>
<h1>{{theCustomer.title}} {{theCustomer.name}}</h1>
