flask_colorpicker



A Flask extension to add Spectrum jQuery color picker into the template, it makes adding and configuring multiple color pickers at a time much easier and less time consuming.

## Install :
#### - With pip:
> - `pip install Flask-Colorpicker`

#### - From the source:
> - `git clone https://github.com/mrf345/flask_colorpicker.git`

> - `cd flask_colorpicker`

> - `python setup.py install`

## Setup :
#### - Inside the Flask app:
```python
from flask import Flask, render_template
from flask_bootstrap import Bootstrap
from flask_colorpicker import colorpicker
app = Flask(__name__)
Bootstrap(app)
colorpicker(app)
```
#### - inside the jinja template
```jinja
{% extends 'bootstrap/base.html'}
{% block scripts %}
{{ super() }}
{{ colorpicker.loader() }}
{{ colorpicker.picker(ids=[".cp"]) }}
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}



{% endblock %}
```

## Settings:
#### - Customize:
>The accepted arguments to be passed to the `colorpicker.picker()` function are as follow:
```python
def picker(self, ids=[".colorpicker"], # list of ids of element to assign colorpicker to
default_color='rgb(0,0,255,0.5)', # default color to start with
color_format='rgb', # color format to use
showAlpha='true', # enable or disable transparency
showInput='false', # display or hide color picker
showButtons='false', # display or hide buttons
allowEmpty='true'): # allow empty input
```

#### - Local source:
> by default the extension will load spectrum plugin from [a remote CDN][25530337]. Although you can configure that to be locally through passing a list of two files .js and .css into the colorpicker module like such:
```python
colorpicker(app=app, local=['static/js/spectrum.js', 'static/css/spectrum.css'])
```
_The order in-which the items of list are passed is not of importance, it will be auto detected via file extension_
