Manipulate v-color-picker in the template node

[Udina]

Hello everyone,

I am currently building my home automation with dashboard 2 and I would like to manage a color selection palette with v-color-picker from Vuetify.
The idea is to drive neopixel LEDs behind my television via an ESP32.
So I need to output the value of msg.payload to the template node output.
Here are the flows that I have set up but I cannot link the v-model to a color variable and manage to have my msg.payload updated as output.
Can you help me?

you could always just use a watch on the color variable

<template>
  <v-app>
    <v-container>
      <v-color-picker v-model="color" />
      <div class="mt-3">
        <p>Couleur sélectionnée: {{ color }}</p>
        <div :style="{ backgroundColor: color, height: '50px', width: '50px' }"></div>
      </div>
    </v-container>
  </v-app>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  data() {
    return {
      color: '#FF5733', 
    };
  },
  watch: {
    color() {
      this.send({payload: this.color})
    }
  }
}
</script>

<style scoped>
/* Ajoute ici tes styles si besoin */
</style>

As for sending data to Node-RED from a template, that is this.send as documented here: Template ui-template | Node-RED Dashboard 2.0

Great, thank you very much, it works well, I'll keep the link for reference in future cases that I need. Thanks again

Hallo Udina,

I am trying to make your DB2 color picker work. As I am not very successful I would very much appreciate if you could share your littel demo flow from above with me.

thanks in advance

Problem solved.

info here vue color picker

<template>
  <div class="d-flex justify-space-around">
    <v-color-picker
      v-model="picker"
      elevation="15"
    ></v-color-picker>
  </div>
</template>

<script setup>
  import { ref } from 'vue'

  const picker = ref(null)
</script>

<script>
  export default {
    data () {
      return {
        picker: null,
      }
    },
    watch: {
      picker() {
        this.send({payload: this.picker})
    }
  }    
  }
</script>

<style>
    /* define any styles here - supports raw CSS */
    .my-class {
        color: red;
    }
</style>
