Supported color models

We provide 13 additional color picker components for different color models, unless your app needs a HEX string as an input/output format.

How to use another color model

Available pickers

Import Value example
{ HexColorPicker } "#ffffff"
{ RgbColorPicker } { r: 255, g: 255, b: 255 }
{ RgbaColorPicker } { r: 255, g: 255, b: 255, a: 1 }
{ RgbStringColorPicker } "rgb(255, 255, 255)"
{ RgbaStringColorPicker } "rgba(255, 255, 255, 1)"
{ HslColorPicker } { h: 0, s: 0, l: 100 }
{ HslaColorPicker } { h: 0, s: 0, l: 100, a: 1 }
{ HslStringColorPicker } "hsl(0, 0%, 100%)"
{ HslaStringColorPicker } "hsla(0, 0%, 100%, 1)"
{ HsvColorPicker } { h: 0, s: 0, v: 100 }
{ HsvaColorPicker } { h: 0, s: 0, v: 100, a: 1 }
{ HsvStringColorPicker } "hsv(0, 0%, 100%)"
{ HsvaStringColorPicker } "hsva(0, 0%, 100%, 1)"

TypeScript support

angular-colorful supports TypeScript and ships with types in the library itself; no need for any other install.

How you can get the most from our TypeScript support

While not only typing its own functions and variables, it can also help you type yours. Depending on the component you are using, you can also import the type that is associated with the component. For example, if you are using our HSL color picker component, you can also import the HSL type.

import {HslColorPicker, HslColor} from "angular-colorful";

const myHslValue: HslColor = {h: 0, s: 0, l: 0};

Take a look at Supported Color Models for more information about the types and color formats you may want to use.

Ports

Not using Angular? No problem! Angular-colorful ported from react-colorful. All the ported projects can be viewed here.

Roadmap

  • Additional modules to support RGB, HSL and HSV color models
  • TypeScript support
  • Rewrite the codebase to TypeScript
  • Alpha channel support (RGBA, HSLA and HSVA color models)
  • HEX input component
  • Accessibility
