Usage

});

Optional options

const pickr = new Pickr({

    // Selector or element which will be replaced with the actual color-picker
    el: '.color-picker',
    
    // Default color
    default: 'fff',

    // Defines the position of the color-picker. Available options are
    // top, left and middle relativ to the picker button.
    position: 'middle',

    // Show or hide specific components.
    // By default only the palette (and the save button) is visible.
    components: {

        preview: true, // Left side color comparison
        opacity: true, // Opacity slider
        hue: true,     // Hue slider

        // Bottom output bar, theoretically you could use 'true' as propery.
        // But this would also hide the save-button.
        output: {
            hex: true,  // hex option  (hexadecimal representation of the rgb value)
            rgba: true, // rgba option (red green blue and alpha)
            hsla: true, // hsla option (hue saturation lightness and alpha)
            hsva: true, // hsva option (hue saturation value and alpha)
            cmyk: true, // cmyk option (cyan mangenta yellow key )
            input: true // input / output element
        },
    },


    // User has changed the color
    onChange(hsva, instance) {
        hsva;     // HSVa color object
        instance; // Current Pickr instance
    },

    // User has clicked the save button
    onSave(hsva, instance) {
        // same as onChange
    }
});

The HSVaColor object

As default color representation is hsva (hue, saturation, value and alpha) used, but you can also convert it to other formats as listed below.

• hsva.toHSVA() - Converts the object to a hsva string / array.
• hsva.toHSLA() - Converts the object to a hsla string / array.
• hsva.toRGBA() - Converts the object to a rgba string / array.
• hsva.toHEX() - Converts the object to a hexa-decimal string / array.
• hsva.toCMYK() - Converts the object to a cymk string / array.
• hsva.clone() - Clones the color object.

The toString() is overriden so you can get a color representaion string.

hsva.toRGBA(); // Returns [r, g, b, a]
hsva.toRGBA().toString();     // Returns rgba(r, g, b, a)
