chromath

Overview

chromath provides provides many color conversion and manipulation functions.

You can:

• Create a color from just about any reasonable string
• Convert from one color space to another (rgb->hex, hsv->hsl, rgb->hex->hsl->rgb)
• Add two colors (using additive or subtractive color)
• Get a color scheme (complement, split complement, triad, tetrad, etc) based on a color
• Lots more. Take a look at the docs

Getting started

In the browser:

In NodeJS:

npm install chromath

then

var Chromath = require('chromath')

From there, the usage is identical in both environments.

Functional or Object-oriented

You can use chromath in a functional or object-oriented manner.

var red = new Chromath('rgb(255, 0, 0)');
red.towards('yellow', 0.5).toString(); // #FF7F00

is the same as

Chromath.towards('red', 'yellow', 0.5).toString(); // #FF7F00

The only difference between instance methods and Class methods with the same name (e.g,

Chromath.tint

tint

Here's the definition of

Chromath.prototype.tint

tint: function (by) {
    return Chromath.tint(this, by);
}

In NodeJS you can only pull in the portions you're interesed in, e.g:

> var fromRGBToHex = require('chromath').rgb2hex
> fromRGBToHex(234, 56, 78)
'#EA384E'
