An extension to the Django web framework that provides a database and form field to accept and store colors in the RGB format.
>>> pip install django-colorfulMake sure 'colorful' is in your INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS.append('colorful') In order to use a color field you just have to add it to your model definition:
from django.db import models from colorful.fields import RGBColorField class Tag(models.Model): color = RGBColorField()
The RGBColorField class also accepts a color keyword argument which can be set to a list of colors that should be visible as preset color palette:
color = RGBColorField(colors=['#FF0000', '#00FF00', '#0000FF'])
The ColorFieldWidget should take care of providing a JavaScript based shim on browsers that don't support the HTML5 color input.
Note
To enable HTML5 color input with Django Grappelli ensure that GRAPPELLI_CLEAN_INPUT_TYPES is set to False in your settings file.
