<body>
  <div class="picker"></div>

Options

Initial color

By default, the initial color is #3498db.

You can overwrite this globally for all pickers on the page with initialColor option:

$(".picker").colorPick({ 'initialColor': '#27ae60' });

For different initial colors for individual pickers use data-initialcolor attribute:

<div class="picker" data-initialcolor="#3998DB"></div>

Custom action

You can specify your own action event which will be called as soon as the color is selected.
The hex color which has been selected can be referred to as “this.color”.

$(".picker").colorPick({ 
  'onColorSelected': function() {
    console.log("The user has selected the color: " + this.color)
    this.element.css({'backgroundColor': this.color, 'color': this.color});
  } 
});

Allowing saving recent colors and specifying their number

By default, recent colors are allowed, and their max number is 5.

$(".picker").colorPick({ 'allowRecent': true, 'recentMax': 5 });

Custom colors database

By default, we use Flat UI color database.

$(".picker").colorPick({ 'palette': ["#1abc9c", "#16a085", "#2ecc71"] });

Custom palette label

Default is “Default palette:” (with colon).
If provided paletteLabel will overwrite the palette label.

$(".picker").colorPick({ 'paletteLabel': 'Custom label' });

Allow custom color

You can allow users to enter custom color. This will enable input field that accepts 3- or 6-letter HEX color. Defaults to false.

$(".picker").colorPick({ 'allowCustomColor': true });
