Basic Usage

const gradientRoot = document.getElementById('gradient-root');

const myColorGen = new GradientGenerator({
  mainElement: gradientRoot,
  initialColors: [
    { colorHex: '#ff0000', position: 0 },
    { colorHex: '#00ff00', position: 50 },
    { colorHex: '#0000ff', position: 100 },
  ],
});

const colors1 = myColorGen.generateColors(50);
console.log(colors1); // Generate 50 colors using the first values

myColorGen.addColors(
  { colorHex: '#fafa00', position: 80 },
  { colorHex: '#001919', position: 30 }
);

const colors2 = myColorGen.generateColors(100);
console.log(colors2); // Generate 100 colors using the first values and the news

see example here

Without UI Element

const myColorGen = new GradientGenerator();

const colors1 = myColorGen.generateColors();
console.log(colors1); // Generate 100 colors using the default values

myColorGen.addColors(
  { colorHex: '#fafa00', position: 80 },
  { colorHex: '#001919', position: 30 }
);

const colors2 = myColorGen.generateColors(100);
console.log(colors2); // Generate 100 colors using the default values and the news

See this example here

With a UI Manager

const gradientRoot = document.getElementById('gradient-root');

const myColorGen = new GradientGenerator({ mainElement: gradientRoot });
const myGenManager = myColorGen.createUIManager({ keepChanges: false });

const addBtn = document.getElementById('add');
addBtn.addEventListener('click', () => {
  myGenManager.setAddMode();
});

const cancelBtn = document.getElementById('cancel');
cancelBtn.addEventListener('click', () => {
  myGenManager.cancelAddMode();
});

API

GradientGenerator

  • Constructor Options:

    • mainElement (default: null) - pass a empty HTMLElement root of the gradient.
    • initialColors (default: [ { colorHex: '#ff0000', position: 10 }, { colorHex: '#ffff00', position: 40 }, { colorHex: '#00ff77', position: 70 } ]) - pass an array of objects with a hexadecimal color and relative position (0 - 100)

  • generateColors(size = 100) - Generate the intermediate colors accord an expected number of colors generated

  • addColors(...{ colorHex, position }) - Add one or many new intermediate color with ther respective relative position

  • getGradientColors() - Get the gradient generator colors ordered by position

  • setGradientColors([{colorHex, position}]) - Reset the gradient generator colors base

  • createUIManager(ManagerConstructorOptions) - Get a new Generator Manager with this generator to interact with the user interface.

GeneratorManager

  • Constructor Options:

    • generator: GradientGenerator - Pass the generator to manage
    • keepChanges (default: true) - keep the changes on the interface in each interaction

  • activateAddMode() - Activates the interaction with the user interface to add a new element on click on the main element

  • cancelAddMode() - Deactivate the interaction with the user interface to add new elements

  • restoreColors() - if keepChanges is false, it restores the colors of the last restore point

  • saveColors() - Create a new restore point with current colors
