Solution

  • It's a bit hard to understand what you actually want but assuming:

    1. You want to render checkboxes
    2. You don't want checked field in the v-model (so it was added only to help render the checkboxes)

    You don't need checked property at all as the value can be easily replaced by simple check against the v-model. That way you can remove a lot of unnecessary code.

    See my example below:

    new Vue({
  components: {
    Multiselect: window.VueMultiselect.default
  },
  data: {
    value: [],
    options: [{
        language: 'JavaScript',
        library: 'Vue.js'
      },
      {
        language: 'JavaScript',
        library: 'Vue-Multiselect'
      },
      {
        language: 'JavaScript',
        library: 'Vuelidate'
      }
    ]
  },
  methods: {
    customLabel(option) {
      return `${option.library} - ${option.language}`
    },
    isSelected(option) {
      /* unfortunatelly following line does not work as VueMultiselect for some (strange) reason 
        fills the v-model array with copies instead of original objects contained in options
      */
      // return this.value.includes(option)
      return this.value.some((op) => op.library === option.library)
    }
  },
  created() {
    this.value.push(this.options[0])
  }
}).$mount('#app')
    * {
  font-family: 'Lato', 'Avenir', sans-serif;
}

.checkbox-label {
  display: block;
}

.test {
  position: absolute;
  right: 1vw;
}
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vue/2.5.17/vue.js"></script>
<link href="https://unpkg.com/vue-multiselect@2.0.2/dist/vue-multiselect.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue-multiselect@2.0.3/dist/vue-multiselect.min.js"></script>
<div id="app">
  <multiselect select-Label="" selected-Label="" deselect-Label="" v-model="value" :options="options" :multiple="true" track-by="library" :custom-label="customLabel" :close-on-select="false">
    <span class="checkbox-label" slot="option" slot-scope="scope">
    {{ scope.option.library }}
      <input class="test" type="checkbox" :checked="isSelected(scope.option)" @focus.prevent :key="scope.option.library" />
    </span>
  </multiselect>
  <pre>{{ value }}</pre>
</div>
