react-alwan is a React component wrapper for the Alwan color picker library.
It lets you seamlessly integrate Alwan into React applications with a fully React-friendly API.

⚡ Version 2 — a complete rewrite that now builds directly on the core Alwan library, instead of a React-only implementation.

Install react-alwan via npm or yarn

# Using npm
npm install react-alwan

# Using yarn
yarn add react-alwan

import React from 'react';
import Alwan from 'react-alwan';
import 'react-alwan/style.css';

function App() {
  return <Alwan onChange={(color) => console.log(color)} />;
}

export default App;

Note: For older Node versions that don’t fully support the "exports" field, you may need to import the CSS directly from the original package:

import 'alwan/dist/css/alwan.min.css';
import Alwan from 'react-alwan';

• options: Same as the options in the Alwan library. You can pass any configuration supported by Alwan through this prop.

Example:

import Alwan from "react-alwan";
import "react-alwan/style.css"

export default function App() {
  return <Alwan options={{ theme: "dark", default: "#ff0000" }} />;
}

• Events callbacks: onChange, onColor, onOpen and onClose

react-alwan provides React-style props that map directly to the event handlers in the Alwan library.
Each callback receives an event object as its argument, described here.

import Alwan from "react-alwan";
import "react-alwan/style.css"

export default function App() {
  return (
    <Alwan
      options={{ theme: "dark" }}
      onChange={(ev) => console.log("Color changed:", ev.rgb)}
      onOpen={(ev) => console.log("Picker opened")}
      onClose={(ev) => console.log("Picker closed")}
    />
  );
}

• refEl

The refEl prop is a React element used as the reference element for the color picker when the preset option is set to false.
If refEl is not provided (or if preset: true), React-Alwan renders its own pre-styled button as the reference element.
