load more on scroll (Infinite scroll)

[irowbin]

Is it possible to add infinite scroll to load more record from server? I think this feature isn't implemented yet.

@irowbin sounds like a good idea!
currently, you would have to add an scroll event listener to the option container and update the observable feeding the option list. but I guess it is quite some work to get this right.

This feature would be even better in combination with virtual scroll, see angular/components#823

anyway, unless you think I am wrong, I suggest you to move this to the official repo of material, i.e. create a new issue here, since this would be a general feature of MatSelect rather than ngx-mat-select-search
However, if you feel like providing and implementation of this, I would also be ready to include this as part of the ngx-mat-select-search library.

How do you want to proceed?

there exists the following MatSelect feature request: angular/components#11578

@irowbin if you feel like implementing this in ngx-mat-select-search, feel free to open another issue and a PR.
