evol-colorpicker ·
evol-colorpicker is a web color picker which looks like the one in Microsoft Office 2010. It can be used inline or as a popup bound to a text box. It comes with several color palettes, can track selection history and supports "transparent" color. It is a full jQuery UI widget, supporting various configurations and themes.
Check the online demo for several examples.

Installation
Download or fork evol-colorpicker at GitHub.
git clone https://github.com/evoluteur/colorpicker
or use the npm package:
npm install evol-colorpicker
or install with Bower:
bower install evol-colorpicker
or use the nuget package:
dotnet add package evol-colorpicker
<a name="Usage"></a>
Usage
First, load jQuery (v3.1 or greater), jQuery UI (v1.12.1 or greater), and the plugin (for earlier version of jQuery-UI, use an earlier version of Colorpicker).
<script
src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"
type="text/javascript"
charset="utf-8"
></script>
<script
src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.min.js"
type="text/javascript"
charset="utf-8"
></script>
<script
src="js/evol-colorpicker.min.js"
type="text/javascript"
charset="utf-8"
></script>
The widget requires a jQuery UI theme to be present, as well as its own included base CSS file (evol-colorpicker.css). Here we use the "ui-lightness" theme as an example:
<link
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
href="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.12.1/themes/ui-lightness/jquery-ui.css"
/>
<link href="css/evol-colorpicker.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Now, let's attach it to an existing <input>
tag:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#mycolor").colorpicker();
});
</script>
<input style="width:100px;" id="mycolor" />
This will wrap it into a "holder" <div>
and add another <div>
beside it for the color box:
<div style="width:128px;">
<input style="width:100px;" id="mycolor" class="colorPicker evo-cp0" />
<div class="evo-colorind" style="background-color:#8db3e2"></div>
</div>
Using the same syntax, the widget can also be instanciated on a <div>
or a <span>
tag to show inline. In that case the generated HTML is the full palette.
<a name="Theming"></a>
Theming
evol-colorpicker is as easily themeable as any jQuery UI widget, using one of the jQuery UI themes or your own custom theme made with Themeroller.
<a name="Options"></a>
Options
evol-colorpicker provides several options to customize its behaviour:
color (String)
Used to set the color value.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
color: "#ffffff",
});
Defaults to null.
defaultPalette (String)
Used to set the default color palette. Possible values are "theme" or "web".
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
defaultPalette: "web",
});
Defaults to theme.
displayIndicator (Boolean)
Used to show color value on hover and click inside the palette.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
displayIndicator: false,
});
Defaults to true.
hideButton (Boolean)
When binding the colorpicker to a textbox, a colored button will be added to the right of the textbox unless hideButton is set to true. This option doens't have any effect if the colorpicker is bound to a DIV.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
hideButton: true,
});
Defaults to false.
history (Boolean)
Used to track selection history (shared among all instances of the colorpicker). The history keeps the last 28 colors selections.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
history: false,
});
Defaults to true.
initialHistory (Array strings)
Used to provide a color selection history. Colors are provided as strings of hexadecimal color values.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
initialHistory: ["#ff0000", "#00ff00", "#0000ff"],
});
Defaults to null.
showOn (String)
Have the colorpicker appear automatically when the field receives focus ("focus"), appear only when a button is clicked ("button"), or appear when either event takes place ("both"). This option only takes effect when the color picker is instanciated on a textbox.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
showOn: "button",
});
Defaults to "both".
strings (String)
Used to translate the widget. It is a coma separated list of all labels used in the UI.
$("#mycolor").colorpicker({
strings:
"Couleurs de themes,Couleurs de base,Plus de couleurs,Moins de couleurs,Palette,Historique,Pas encore d'historique.",
});
Defaults to "Theme Colors,Standard Colors,Web Colors,Theme Colors,Back to Palette,History,No history yet.".
