Color Codes

Color definitions for use to set color values in fields and console.log().

TapForms has a color option when writing to the console using console.log("some text", "#ff0000"). Apart of white, black, red, green, blue and some shades of gray, it is hard to remember the RGB values of a particular color.

This script provides human readable color codes instead of standard 24-bit RGB patterns. Color codes can be used with console.log output and field colors.

console.log('some random text', COLOR.mediumslateblue);

Following is a list of all web color codes that are supported:

aliceblue, antiquewhite, aqua, aquamarine, azure, beige, bisque, black, blanchedalmond, blue, blueviolet, brown, burlywood, cadetblue, chartreuse, chocolate, coral, cornflowerblue, cornsilk, crimson, cyan, darkblue, darkcyan, darkgoldenrod, darkgray, darkgreen, darkkhaki, darkmagenta, darkolivegreen, darkorange, darkorchid, darkred, darksalmon, darkseagreen, darkslateblue, darkslategray, darkturquoise, darkviolet, deeppink, deepskyblue, dimgray, dodgerblue, firebrick, floralwhite, forestgreen, fuchsia, gainsboro, ghostwhite, gold, goldenrod, gray, webgray, green, webgreen, greenyellow, honeydew, hotpink, indianred, indigo, ivory, khaki, lavender, lavenderblush, lawngreen, lemonchiffon, lightblue, lightcoral, lightcyan, lightgoldenrod, lightgray, lightgreen, lightpink, lightsalmon, lightseagreen, lightskyblue, lightslategray, lightsteelblue, lightyellow, lime, limegreen, linen, magenta, maroon, webmaroon, mediumaquamarine, mediumblue, mediumorchid, mediumpurple, mediumseagreen, mediumslateblue, mediumspringgreen, mediumturquoise, mediumvioletred, midnightblue, mintcream, mistyrose, moccasin, navajowhite, navyblue, oldlace, olive, olivedrab, orange, orangered, orchid, palegoldenrod, palegreen, paleturquoise, palevioletred, papayawhip, peachpuff, peru, pink, plum, powderblue, purple, webpurple, rebeccapurple, red, rosybrown, royalblue, saddlebrown, salmon, sandybrown, seagreen, seashell, sienna, silver, skyblue, slateblue, slategray, snow, springgreen, steelblue, tan, teal, thistle, tomato, turquoise, violet, wheat, white, whitesmoke, yellow, yellowgreen

If you're looking for a particular color, it might be easier to use a reference such as htmlcolorcodes.com

Usage

In order to use this, first the script needs to be loaded with

// load color codes if it is not already loaded
document.getFormNamed('Scripts').runScriptNamed('Color Codes');

Now it's easy to use a color code without remembering a RGB value:

console.log("This test outputs red, green, and blue lines");
console.log("red red red red red", COLOR.red);
console.log("green green green green", COLOR.green);
console.log("blue blue blue blue blue", COLOR.blue);
console.log("violet violet violet violet", COLOR.violet);

With the dark theme, this generates an output like this:
