# `<color-picker>`

## Usage

### Basic usage

```html
<color-picker space="oklch" color="oklch(60% 30% 180)"></color-picker>
```

Color spaces not supported by the browser also work:

```html
<color-picker space="okhsl" color="color(--okhsl 180 50% 50%)"></color-picker>
```

If no color space or color is provided, the default ones will be used: `oklch` for the space and `oklch(50% 50% 180)` for the color.

```html
<color-picker></color-picker>
```

### The `alpha` attribute

Colors with the alpha channel are also supported. Add the `alpha` boolean attribute to show the alpha channel:

```html
<color-picker space="oklch" color="oklch(60% 30% 180 / 0.6)" alpha></color-picker>
```

### Slots

```html
<color-picker space="oklch" color="oklch(50% 50% 180)">
	Element content goes into the swatch
</color-picker>
```

You can use your component instead of the default color swatch:

```html
<color-picker space="oklch" color="oklch(50% 50% 180)"
              oncolorchange="this.firstElementChild.textContent = this.color">
	<color-inline slot="swatch" style="place-self: center; min-inline-size: fit-content"></color-inline>
</color-picker>
```

or your own form element instead of the default space picker:

```html
<color-picker space="oklab" color="oklab(60% -0.12 0)">
	<select slot="color-space" size="4">
		<optgroup label="Rectangular Spaces">
			<option value="lab">Lab</option>
			<option value="oklab" selected>Oklab</option>
			<option value="prophoto">ProPhoto</option>
		</optgroup>
	</select>
</color-picker>
```

### Events

As with other components, you can listen to the `colorchange` event:

```html
<color-picker space="oklch" color="oklch(50% 50% 180)"
              oncolorchange="this.firstElementChild.textContent = this.color.oklch.join(' ')">
	<div class="coords"></div>
</color-picker>
```

### Dynamic

All attributes are reactive:

```html
<color-picker space="oklch" color="oklch(60% 30% 180)" id="dynamic_picker">
	<fieldset slot="color-space">
		<legend>Polar Spaces</legend>

		<label>
			<input type="radio" name="space" value="oklch" checked /> OKLCh
		</label>
		<label>
			<input type="radio" name="space" value="hwb" /> HWB
		</label>
		<label>
			<input type="radio" name="space" value="hsl" /> HSL
		</label>
	</fieldset>
</color-picker>

<script>
	let radios = dynamic_picker.querySelectorAll("input[name=space]");
	radios.forEach(radio => radio.addEventListener("change", evt => dynamic_picker.spaceId = evt.target.value));
</script>

<style>
	label + label {
		margin-inline-start: .3em;
	}
</style>
```

```html
<label>
	<input type="checkbox" onchange="this.parentElement.nextElementSibling.alpha = this.checked" /> Alpha channel
</label>
<color-picker></color-picker>
```
