ColorPicker

A component to select a color.

Usage

Use the v-model directive to control the value of the ColorPicker.

<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('#00C16A')
</script>

<template>
  <UColorPicker v-model="value" />
</template>

Use the default-value prop to set the initial value when you do not need to control its state.

<template>
  <UColorPicker default-value="#00BCD4" />
</template>

RGB Format

Use the format prop to set rgb value of the ColorPicker.

<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('rgb(0, 193, 106)')
</script>

<template>
  <UColorPicker format="rgb" v-model="value" />
</template>

HSL Format

Use the format prop to set hsl value of the ColorPicker.

<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('hsl(153, 100%, 37.8%)')
</script>

<template>
  <UColorPicker format="hsl" v-model="value" />
</template>

HWB Format

Use the format prop to set hwb value of the ColorPicker.

<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('hwb(150, 0%, 24%)')
</script>

<template>
  <UColorPicker format="hwb" v-model="value" />
</template>

Throttle

Use the throttle prop to set the throttle value of the ColorPicker.

<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('#00C16A')
</script>

<template>
  <UColorPicker :throttle="100" v-model="value" />
</template>

Size

Use the size prop to set the size of the ColorPicker.

<template>
  <UColorPicker size="xl" />
</template>

Disabled

Use the disabled prop to disable the ColorPicker.

<template>
  <UColorPicker disabled />
</template>

Examples

As a Color chooser

Use a Button and a Popover component to create a color chooser.

<script setup lang="ts">
const color = ref('#00C16A')

const chip = computed(() => ({ backgroundColor: color.value }))
</script>

<template>
  <UPopover>
    <UButton label="Choose color" color="neutral" variant="outline">
      <template #leading>
        <span :style="chip" class="size-3 rounded-full" />
      </template>
    </UButton>

    <template #content>
      <UColorPicker v-model="color" class="p-2" />
    </template>
  </UPopover>
