v3.0.0/colors (deprecated)

[itsjavi]

IMPORTANT: This Pull Request is deprecated, please use #158

The next major release will be only compatible with Bootstrap 3.x and ECMAScript 5 browsers.
It will integrate new features like palettes (with some useful predefined) and the fantastic
TinyColor plugin that have a powerful color parser and generator. Take a look at the tinycolor
branch.

Features

• TinyColor integration
• Bootstrap Popover compatibility
• No external background images are required (all UI use gradients for resize support)
• Fully customizable LESS file
• Palettes, with some useful predefined ones (triad', tetrad, monochromatic, analogous, complementary,
  lightness, lighten, darken, brighten, saturate, desaturate, mixed, or your custom colors array)
• More reliable: v2 uses a 100px areas which cause some colors not to be selectable with enough precision, v3 uses 256px (the large version is a 65536 colors matrix, like photoshop) or 128px by default.

TO-DO

Re adapt v2 api:

• integrate bootstrap-popover-picker API
• Mouse events
• Input events / behaviours
• Picker events
• Inline mode
• Vertical mode
• Component mode
• Arrow position as an option
• Resolve opened issues for v2

Other ideas

• Optional alpha bar? This may cause width issues with palettes.
• Vertical palette? Ability to replace the alpha bar with a palette?
• Implement optional ok/cancel buttons? This would be placed in the bottom as an horz. bar.
• Implement optional color preview (current/new)? (In the same bar as ok/cancel)

Preview

Here is a screenschot of the WIP development of Bootrstrap Colorpicker 3 ;)

@esbanarango hi, not yet, cause it has a lot of problems yet as you can see if you clone the branch.

Closing this in favor of develop branch. Some of the concepts here explained will be integrated there, but with less drastical changes.
