A custom select2 component which is ready to be used

select2-custom.vue

<!--

Access it with: <select2 v-model="field.value" :options="field.options" :tags="true"></select2> 
A object exists with following structure:
field: {
  value: "",
  options: [
    { id: "0", text: "No" },
    { id: "5", text: "5 mm" },
    { id: "10", text: "10 mm" }
  ]
}

The "tags" parameter is there to allow the user to write its own text and select it.
In the "options" array, there are "id" and "text".
The "ajax" object is also supported. Just add :ajax="field.ajax" to the HTML tag and put your ajax call inside "field" as "ajax".

Import this component in your view or whatever with:
import Select2 from "@/components/Select2.vue"; (or where the file is)

... Basically an "improved" example of https://vuejs.org/v2/examples/select2.html

EDIT: Now the options are reactive. 
If you use a computed property to translate the options (or similar), 
this Select2 template will automatically update all options and select the same option again, with the new text Strings.

EDIT2: [BUGFIX] Fixed v-model being destroyed. Now the options are reloaded without destroying and reloading Select2.
