Features

$3

- Color Validation: Check if color strings are valid for different formats, ensuring color data integrity.
- Format Detection: Identify the format of a given color string, providing insights into color data and enhancing format compatibility.

$3

- Color Conversion: Convert colors between different formats, supporting a wide range of color models.
- Opacity Extraction: Extract the opacity value from a color, useful for understanding and manipulating alpha channels.
- Color Number Parsing: Parse color components into numeric values, allowing for detailed color manipulations and analyses.

$3

- Stepped Gradient: Create stepped gradients between two colors, perfect for heatmaps and visual effects.
- Advanced Multi-Stepped Gradient: Generate complex gradients with multiple colors and steps, offering detailed control over color transitions.

$3

- Brightness Adjustment: Increase or decrease the brightness of a color to fit your design needs.
- Saturation Adjustment: Modify the saturation of a color, allowing for more vibrant or subdued variations.
- Hue Adjustment: Change the hue of a color to any specified degree, enabling creative color transformations.
- Opacity Change: Adjust the opacity of a color, useful for transparency effects and layering.
- Color Inversion: Invert colors to create striking visual effects or highlight contrasts.
- Tinting and Shading: Create tints by mixing colors with white and shades by mixing with black, ideal for theme generation and UI design.
- Sepia Effect: Apply a sepia tone to give colors a warm, vintage feel.
- Greyscale Application: Apply greyscale, maintaining luminance while removing hue and saturation.
- Opposite Color: Calculate the complementary color by adjusting the hue by 180 degrees, useful for design contrast and harmony.
- Random Color Generation: Generate a random color in any specified format (HEX, HEXA, RGB, RGBA, HSL, HSLA, HSV, CMYK).

$3

- Luminance Calculation: Get the luminance of a color, understanding its perceived brightness.
- Color Lightness Detection: Determine if a color is considered light or dark, aiding in accessibility and readability decisions.
- Contrast Calculation: Calculate the contrast ratio between two colors, essential for designing accessible and legible interfaces.
- Color Similarity Calculation: Calculate the similarity percentage between two colors, useful for finding colors that are visually close.
- Color Temperature: Convert colors to correlated color temperature (CCT) in Kelvin, useful for lighting design and color analysis.

$3

- RGB, RGBA
- HSL, HSLA
- HEX, HEXA
- HSV
- CMYK

Installation

Usage

Here's a quick overview of how to use some of the core functionalities of @mirawision/colorize:

$3

`javascript
import { Color } from '@mirawision/colorize';

// Initialize a Color object with a HEX color
const myColor = new Color('#3498db');

console.log(myColor.get()); // Outputs: '#3498db'
console.log(myColor.rgb()); // Returns color in RGB format: 'rgb(52, 152, 219)'
console.log(myColor.hsl()); // Returns color in HSL format: 'hsl(204, 70%, 53%)'

// Apply some manipulations
console.log(myColor.applyBrightness(20)); // Brightens the color: '#60aef1'
console.log(myColor.applyInvert()); // Inverts the color: '#cb6734'
console.log(myColor.applyGrayscale()); // Applies grayscale effect: '#a1a1a1'
`

$3

`javascript
import { convertColor } from '@mirawision/colorize/convert-color';

const rgb = convertColor('hsl(120, 100%, 50%)', 'rgb');
console.log(rgb); // Output: 'rgb(0, 255, 0)'
`

$3

`javascript
import { isValidHEXColor } from '@mirawision/colorize/is-valid-color';

const isValid = isValidHEXColor('#ff0000');
console.log(isValid); // Output: true
`

$3

`javascript
import { getColorFormat } from '@mirawision/colorize/get-color-format';

const format = getColorFormat('rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5)');
console.log(format); // Output: 'rgba'
`

$3

`javascript
import { randomColor } from '@mirawision/colorize';

console.log(randomColor()); // Outputs: a random color in HEX format
console.log(randomColor('rgb')); // Outputs: a random color in RGB format
console.log(randomColor('hsl')); // Outputs: a random color in HSL format
`

$3

`javascript
import { generateSteppedGradient } from '@mirawision/colorize/generate-stepped-gradient';

const gradient = generateSteppedGradient('rgb(255, 0, 0)', 'rgb(0, 0, 255)', 3);
console.log(gradient); // Output: ['rgb(191, 0, 64)', 'rgb(128, 0, 128)', 'rgb(64, 0, 191)']
`

$3

`javascript
import { adjustBrightness } from '@mirawision/colorize/adjust-brightness';

const brighter = adjustBrightness('hsl(120, 50%, 50%)', 10);
console.log(brighter); // Output: 'hsl(120, 50%, 60%)'
