README

This extension allows you to use fields of type: color in your ContentTypes, as defined in contenttypes.yaml.

You can also manipulate colors in Twig, with all the might of the Iris PHP Color library.

Installation

composer require bolt/color

Usage

Definition

In your contenttypes.yaml, you can define the following field:

      background:
          type: color
          label: Background color

Which will show up as a colorpicker field like this (without red highlight):

In twig

To get the hex value (#ff0000), simply use:

{{ record.background }} 

The Iris library allows many ways in which you can manipulate the value of the field, for example:

{{ record.background.red }} {# get the amount of red #}
{{ record.background.values }} {# array with ['ff', '00', 'ff'] rgb values #}
{{ record.background.lighten(20) }} 
{{ record.background.darken(10) }} 
{{ record.background.dark }} {# true if color is dark #}
{{ record.background.hsl }} {# converts to HSL #}
{{ record.background.rgba }} {# converts to RGBA #}
