## Collect statistics on the use of open source
TOAST UI ColorPicker applies Google Analytics (GA) to collect statistics on the use of open source, in order to identify how widely TOAST UI ColorPicker is used throughout the world. It also serves as important index to determine the future course of projects. location.hostname (e.g. > βui.toast.com") is to be collected and the sole purpose is nothing but to measure statistics on the usage. To disable GA, use the following `usageStatistics` options when creating the instance.
```js
const options = {
...
usageStatistics: false
}
const instance = tui.colorPicker.create(options);
```
Or, include `tui-code-snippet.js` (**v2.2.0** or **later**) and then immediately write the options as follows:
```js
tui.usageStatistics = false;
```

You can conveniently install it using the commands provided by each package manager.
When using npm, be sure to use it in the environment [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/ko/) is installed.

You can use the CDN as below.
```html
```
If you want to use a specific version, use the tag name instead of `latest` in the url's path.
The CDN directory has the following structure.
```

## π¨ Usage
### HTML
Add the container element to create the component as an option.
``` html
```
### JavaScript
This component does not use the instance created through the constructor function.
First, you should import the module using one of the following ways depending on your environment.
#### Using namespace in browser environment
``` javascript
const colorPicker = tui.colorPicker;
```
#### Using module format in node environment
``` javascript
const colorPicker = require('tui-color-picker'); /* CommonJS */
```
``` javascript
import colorPicker from 'tui-color-picker'; /* ES6 */
```
Then you should call the `create` method with [options](https://nhn.github.io/tui.color-picker/latest/ColorPicker) to get instance.
After creating an instance, you can call various APIs.
``` javascript
const container = document.getElementById('tui-color-picker-conatiner');
const instance = colorPicker.create({
container: container,
...
});
instance.getColor();
```
