Provides a new form field and database field type for choosing a color via a colorpicker. Intended to be used with [SilverWare](https://github.com/praxisnetau/silverware), however this module can also be installed into a regular [SilverStripe v4](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-framework) project.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- [SilverStripe Framework v4](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-framework)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Installation is via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):

```
$ composer require silverware/colorpicker

```

Configuration

[](#configuration)

As with all SilverStripe modules, configuration is via YAML. The SilverStripe dependency injector is used to configure the color field type. Extensions to `LeftAndMain` are also applied via `config.yml`.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Field Type

[](#field-type)

To make use of the color field type in your code, you can reference the type in your `$db` array:

```
use SilverStripe\ORM\DataObject;

class MyObject extends DataObject
{
    private static $db = [
        'MyColor' => 'Color'
    ];
}
```

You can also `use` the field type within your class file, and reference the field type directly:

```
use SilverStripe\ORM\DataObject;
use SilverWare\Colorpicker\ORM\FieldType\DBColor;

class MyObject extends DataObject
{
    private static $db = [
        'MyColor' => DBColor::class
    ];
}
```

### Form Field

[](#form-field)

Within your `getCMSFields` method, create a `ColorField` to allow the user to choose a color:

```
ColorField::create('MyColor', $this->fieldLabel('MyColor'));
```

Don't forget to first `use` the field in the header of your class file:

```
use SilverWare\Colorpicker\Forms\ColorField;
```
