How to assign Component color without skinparam

Question

My understand is that if I want to assign color to component, I must declare the color in skinparam

for example,

************************

@startuml

 

skinparam component {

 

BackgroundColor<<Apache>> Yellow

 

}

 

component [Web Server] <<Apache>>

 

@enduml

********************************

Is there any more direct way to define component color without skinparam similar to arrow color, 

for example

***************************

@startuml

 

 

component [Web Server] [#Yellow]

 

@enduml
