This is the same as https://github.com/lbragile/ColorMaster only package.json is patched with the 3 missing exports. It seems lbragile's original project is abandoned. I've waited 1.5 years for this PR to be reviewed. I've given up.

⭐ Getting Started

npm install colormaster

Then simply start using ColorMaster in your project:

RGBA Color Space
// note that the import name can be anything (default export), we use "CM" for brevity
import CM from "colormaster";

// object argument
CM({ r: 128, g: 128, b: 128, a: 0.5 }).stringRGB(); // "rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.5)"
CM({ r: 128, g: 128, b: 128, a: 0.5 }).stringRGB({ alpha: false }); // "rgb(128, 128, 128)"
CM({ r: 128, g: 128, b: 128, a: 0.5 }).alphaTo(0.8).stringRGB(); // "rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.8)"

HSLA Color Space
import CM from "colormaster";

// object argument
CM({ h: 300, s: 50, l: 60, a: 0.5 }).stringHSL(); // "hsla(300, 50%, 60%, 0.5)"

HEXA Color Space
import CM from "colormaster";

// object argument
CM({ r: "45", g: "67", b: "89", a: "AB" }).stringHEX(); // "#456789AB"
CM({ r: "45", g: "67", b: "89", a: "AB" }).stringHEX({ alpha: false }); // "#456789"
CM({ r: "45", g: "67", b: "89", a: "AB" }).alphaTo("CC").stringHEX(); // "#456789CC"

// string argument
CM("#456789AB").stringHEX(); // "#456789AB" ← 8-Digit Hex Input
CM("#456789").stringHEX(); // "#456789FF" ← 6-Digit Hex Input
CM("#4567").stringHEX(); // "#44556677" ← 4-Digit Hex Input
CM("#456").stringHEX(); // "#445566FF" ← 3-Digit Hex Input
CM("#456789AB").stringHEX({ alpha: false }); // "#456789"
CM("#456789AB").alphaTo("CC").stringHEX(); // "#456789CC"

Note: HEXA string are always returned in upperCase by ColorMaster. If you prefer lowerCase strings, you can simply use (chain) the built in toLowerCase(). More information is available here


Note: Many more color spaces are provided via plugins to make ColorMaster compact.

 

🎯 Playground

ColorMaster also has a playground where key functionality is illustrated. Those that are interested can play around with the elegant user interface for daily color related needs, grab the corresponding ColorMaster snippet from each page's code button, or even use our REST API for quick results to common requests.

 

🔥 API

Object Instantiation (Color Generation)

ColorMaster(color)

Parses a given input color so that ColorMaster can perform necessary operations to manipulate/transform that input

import CM from "colormaster";

CM("rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)").stringRGB(); // "rgba(255, 0, 0, 1.0)"
CM({ r: 255, g: 0, b: 0, a: 1 }).stringRGB(); // "rgba(255, 0, 0, 1.0)"

CM("hsla(120, 100%, 50%, 1)").stringHSL(); // "hsla(120, 100%, 50%, 1.0)"
CM({ h: 120, s: 100, l: 50, a: 1 }).stringHSL(); // "hsla(120, 100%, 50%, 1.0)"

// Supports 3-digit, 4-digit, 6-digit, and 8-digit HEX(A) input.
CM("#456789").stringHEX(); // "#456789FF"
CM({ r: "45", g: "67", b: "89", a: "AB" }).stringHEX(); // "#456789AB"

// requires name plugin
import CM, { extendPlugins } from "colormaster";
import NamePlugin from "colormaster/plugins/name";

extendPlugins([NamePlugin]);

CM("red").stringHEX(); // "#FF0000FF"
random()

Generates a random RGBA color.

import { random } from "colormaster";

random().stringRGB(); // "rgba(255, 0, 0, 1.0)"
random()().stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 1.0)"
random().stringHEX(); // "#FF0000FF"

 

Formatting

stringRGB(opts?)

Manipulation

hueTo(value | cssName)

Changes the "hue" channel value TO a given input value (done in HSLA space and converted back to RGBA space)

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)").hueTo(120).stringRGB(); // "rgba(0, 255, 0, 1.0)"
CM("hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 1)").hueTo(120).stringHSL(); // "hsla(120, 100%, 50%, 1.0)"
CM("#f00").hueTo("green").stringHEX(); // "#00FF00FF"
hueBy(delta)

Changes the "hue" channel value BY a given delta (done in HSLA space and converted back to RGBA space)

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)").hueBy(120).stringRGB(); // "rgba(0, 255, 0, 1.0)"
CM("hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 1)").hueBy(-30).stringHSL(); // "hsla(330, 100%, 50%, 1.0)"
CM("#f00").hueBy(240).stringHEX(); // "#0000FFFF"
alphaTo(value)

Changes the "alpha" channel value TO a given input value

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)").alphaTo(0.5).stringRGB(); // "rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5)"
CM("hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 1)").alphaTo(0.5).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 0.5)"
CM("#f00").alphaTo("AA").stringHEX(); // "#FF0000AA"
alphaBy(delta)

Changes the "alpha" channel value BY a given delta

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)").alphaBy(-0.1).stringRGB(); // "rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.9)"
CM("hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 1)").alphaBy(-0.1).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 0.9)"
CM("#f009").alphaBy("23").stringHEX(); // "#FF0000BC"
saturationTo(value)

Sets the saturation channel of a color to value

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").saturationTo(75).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 75%, 50%, 1.0)"
saturateBy(delta)

This adds pigmentation to a color, making it less gray.

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").saturateBy(20).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 80%, 50%, 1.0)"
desaturateBy(delta)

The opposite affect of saturateBy(delta). This removes pigmentation from a color making it more gray.

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").desaturateBy(20).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 40%, 50%, 1.0)"
lightnessTo(value)

Sets the lightness channel of a color to value

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").lightnessTo(75).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 60%, 75%, 1.0)"
lighterBy(delta)

This adds white to a color.

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").lighterBy(10).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 60%, 60%, 1.0)"
darkerBy(delta)

The opposite of lighterBy(delta). This adds black to a color.

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").darkerBy(10).stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 60%, 40%, 1.0)"
grayscale()

The same as setting the saturation to "0%" for a color. This makes the color appear grey as it completely removes all pigmentation.

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").grayscale().stringHSL(); // "hsla(0, 0%, 50%, 1.0)"
rotate(value)

This simply adjusts the angle of the color along the color wheel by incrementing the hue value.

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 60%, 50%, 1)").rotate(120).stringHSL(); // "hsla(120, 60%, 50%, 1.0)"
invert(opts?)

Gets the inverted color corresponding to the current color. This is different from a complementary color.

Example, hue of 120 is 240 for the inverted color (360-120), but 300 for the complementary color (120+180)

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(120, 60%, 30%, 0.3)").invert().stringHSL(); // "hsla(240, 40%, 70%, 0.7)"
CM("hsla(120, 60%, 30%, 0.3)").invert({ alpha: false }).stringHSL(); // "hsla(240, 40%, 70%, 0.3)"

 

Accessibility (Plugin - aka A11y)

To use the methods below, the plugin first needs to be extended. That being said, we will skip this step to avoid repetition.

brightness(opts?)

Finds the normalized brightness of the color as defined by WCAG

import CM from "colormaster";
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 0%, 1)").brightness(); // 0

contrast(opts?)

Indicates how well a given color can be read/seen when on a background given by bgColor. A ratio of "1:1" indicates very poor contrast, while "21:1" indicates very good contrast. The calculated value also depends on factors such as text size and contrast ratio type. The lowest acceptable contrast ratio is "3:1" according to WCAG

import CM from "colormaster";

// default bgColor is white
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 0%, 1)").contrast(); // 21
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 0%, 1)").contrast({ ratio: true }); // "21.0000:1"

CM("hsla(0, 0%, 25.1%, 1)").contrast({ ratio: true }); // "10.3653:1"
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 50.2%, 1)").contrast(); // 3.9489
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 50.2%, 1)").contrast({ ratio: true }); // "3.9489:1"
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 75.29%, 1)").contrast(); // 1.8194
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 75.29%, 1)").contrast({ ratio: true }); // "1.8194:1"
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 100%, 1)").contrast(); // 1
CM("hsla(0, 0%, 100%, 1)").contrast({ ratio: true }); // "1.0000:1"

Color Mixing (Plugin)

mix(opts?)

Mixes a ratio of color WITH 1-ratio of the current color instance in a given colorspace

Unlike other color libraries, ColorMaster uses the LUVA color space for mixing colors as this produces superior results.

import CM, { extendPlugins } from "colormaster";
import MixPlugin from "colormaster/plugins/mix";

extendPlugins([MixPlugin]);

// ratio = 0.5, colorspace = 'luv' (default)
CM("#FFFF").mix({ color: "#000F" }).stringHEX(); // "#777777FF"
CM("#FFFA").mix({ color: "#000B" }).stringHEX(); // "#777777B3"

CM("#FF0").mix({ color: "#00F", colorspace: "ryb" }).stringHEX(); // "#008000FF"

CM("#ABC").mix({ color: "#F00F", ratio: -1 }).stringHEX(); // "#AABBCCFF" → ratio < 0
CM("#ABC").mix({ color: "#F00F", ratio: 0 }).stringHEX(); // "#AABBCCFF" → ratio = 0
CM("#ABC").mix({ color: "#F00F", ratio: 1 }).stringHEX(); // "#FF0000FF" → ratio = 1
CM("#ABC").mix({ color: "#F00F", ratio: 2 }).stringHEX(); // "#FF0000FF" → ratio > 1

😍 Strongly Typed

Rather than using pure JavaScript which can lead to hard to debug errors during development, ColorMaster was written in TypeScript (strict mode) to provide a pleasant development experience.

The type definitions are included with the module, so you get intellisense right out of the box.

Additionally, ColorMaster exports all of its types and interfaces so that you can use them in your code.

Next we present how to type your code for RGBA, HEXA, and HSLA color space objects, but you can follow the same principles for all supported color spaces.

RGBA Types
import { Irgb, Irgba } from "colormaster/types";

let rgb: Irgb;
rgb = { r: 128, g: 128, b: 128 }; // OK
rgb = { r: 128, g: 128, b: 128, a: 0.5 }; // ERROR
rgb = { red: 128, green: 128, blue: 128 }; // ERROR

let rgba: Irgba;
rgba = { r: 128, g: 128, b: 128, a: 0.5 }; // OK
rgba = { r: 128, g: 128, b: 128 }; // ERROR
rgba = { r: 128, g: 128, b: 128, alpha: 0.5 }; // ERROR
HEXA Types
import { Ihex, Ihexa } from "colormaster/types";

let hex: Ihex;
hex = { r: "AA", g: "BB", b: "CC" }; // OK
hex = { r: "AA", g: "BB", b: "CC", a: "DD" }; // ERROR
hex = { red: "AA", green: "BB", blue: "CC" }; // ERROR

let hexa: Ihexa;
hexa = { r: "AA", g: "BB", b: "CC", a: "DD" }; // OK
hexa = { r: "AA", g: "BB", b: "CC" }; // ERROR
hexa = { r: "AA", g: "BB", b: "CC", alpha: "DD" }; // ERROR
HSLA Types
import { Ihsl, Ihsla } from "colormaster/types";

let hsl: Ihsl;
hsl = { h: 240, s: 50, l: 75 }; // OK
hsl = { h: 240, s: 50, l: 75, a: 0.5 }; // ERROR
hsl = { hue: 240, saturation: 50, lightness: 75 }; // ERROR

let hsla: Ihsla;
hsla = { h: 240, s: 50, l: 75, a: 0.5 }; // OK
hsla = { h: 240, s: 50, l: 75 }; // ERROR
hsla = { h: 240, s: 50, l: 75, alpha: 0.5 }; // ERROR
