useColorSelector({})

Allows display of the color selector anywhere in your app. The color selector initially shows a default set of colors to choose from <ColorSelector />, or if the color wheel is selected, the <AdvancedColorSelector /> is displayed where the user can choose any color they desire, including typing in a color in all formats.

Wrap your app with the `<ColorSelectorProvider>` if you intend on using the `useColorSelector`

import { ColorSelectorProvider } from '@react-native-d5m/rn-color-selector';

return (
    <ColorSelectorProvider> 
        <YourApp />
    </ColorSelectorProvider>
)

Use `useColorSelector` anywhere within your app

import { useColorSelector } from '@react-native-d5m/rn-color-selector';

const openColorSelector = useColorSelector();

const showColorSelector = () => {
    openColorSelector({
        outputColor: (hexColor) => {
            // Do something with hexColor
        }
    });
}

<ColorSelector />

Allows display of the <ColorSelector /> where inserted into the code. This component initially shows a default set of colors to choose from <ColorSelector />, or if the color wheel is selected, the <AdvancedColorSelector /> is displayed where the user can choose any color they desire, including typing in a color in all formats.

import { ColorSelector } from '@react-native-d5m/rn-color-selector';

return (
    <ColorSelector
        outputColor={(hexColor)=>{
            // Do something with hexColor
        }}
    />
);

<AdvancedColorSelector />

Allows display of the <AdvancedColorSelector /> where inserted into the code. This component allows usage of only the color pad where the user can choose any color they desire, including typing in a color in all formats.

import { AdvancedColorSelector } from '@react-native-d5m/rn-color-selector';

return (
    <AdvancedColorSelector
        outputColor={(hexColor)=>{
            // Do something with hexColor
        }}
    />
);
