Color picker

The gameface-color-picker is part of the Gameface custom components suite. As most of the components in this suite it uses slots to allow dynamic content.

Installation

npm i coherent-gameface-color-picker

Usage

The color-picker component comes with UMD builds.

Usage with UMD modules:

  • import the color-picker component:
<script src="./node_modules/color-picker/dist/color-picker.production.min.js"></script>
  • add the gameface-color-picker component to your html:
<gameface-color-picker class="color-picker-component"></gameface-color-picker>

This is all! Load the file in Gameface to see the color-picker.

Usage with JavaScript:

If you wish to import the modules using JavaScript you can remove the script tags which import the components and the color-picker from the node_modules folder and import them like this:

import {ColorPicker} from 'coherent-gameface-color-picker';

or simply

import 'coherent-gameface-color-picker';

Note that this approach requires a module bundler like Webpack or Rollup to resolve the modules from the node_modules folder.

How to use

To use simply add

<gameface-color-picker></gameface-color-picker>

Setting up the initial color of the picker

Setting the color dynamically
