Usage

Any color can be converted to any other, with only a few caveats. Construction from(), conversion to(), and modification modify() methods can be chained.

Object properties can be accessed directly, e.g. color.r for the red channel value.

Most colors will retain their arguments as a part of their object properties, such as bitDepth, colorSpace, etc.

const Color = require('chromaticity-color-utilities')

let color1 = Color.from('rgb',[255,128,0]).to('hsv')
// hsv { h: 34, s: 100, v: 88, a: 100 }

let color2 = Color.from('hex','ff3201').to('rec709rgb', { bitRate: 10 })
// rec709rgb { r: 940, g: 298, b: 67, a: 940, bitDepth: 10, max: 1023 }

let color6 = Color.from('hex', 'ff00ff').to('lab',{
  colorSpace: 'AdobeRGB',
  referenceWhite: 'd50'
})
// lab {
//  l: 67.60166164169028,
//  a: 101.30709261827131,
//  b: -50.813827160707525,
//  colorSpace: 'adobergb1998',
//  referenceWhite: 'd50'
// }

let color7 = Color.from('hsl',[300,100,50]).to('ypbpr',{kb:0.0722, kr:0.2126})
// ypbpr { y: 0.2848, pb: 0.3854278939426601, pr: 0.45415290830581667 }

let color3 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,0]).modify('blend', {with: Color.from('rgb',[0,255,0])})
// rgb { r: 128, g: 128, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

let color4 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,0]).modify('blend', {
  with: Color.from('hex','00ff00'),
  amount: 0.4
})
// rgb { r: 153, g: 102, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

let color5 = Color.from('hex','ee5432').modify('blend', {
  with: Color.from('rgb',[234, 100, 20, 64]),
  amount: 1/3
}).to('hsv')
// hsv { h: 15, s: 83, v: 93, a: 75 }

let scheme1 = Color.from('rgb',[200, 180, 0]).scheme('splitComplement')
// [
//   rgb { r: 200, g: 180, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 120, b: 200, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 80, g: 0, b: 200, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }  
// ]

let scheme2 = Color.from('hsl',[180, 80, 48]).scheme('tetradic', { angle: 40 })
// [
//   hsl { h: 180, s: 80, l: 48, a: 100 },
//   hsl { h: 220, s: 80, l: 48, a: 100 },
//   hsl { h: 40, s: 80, l: 48, a: 100 },
//   hsl { h: 0, s: 80, l: 48, a: 100 }
// ]

Color Types and Conversions

For all of the following examples, the same color is used (magenta / 0xFF00FF) to create the color.

Alpha is optional when available. If not defined, it will default to the maximum value for the given bit depth. When converting to a space that does not support alpha, it is ignored. If converting back, alpha will be set to full opacity.

RGB : Red, Green, Blue

All values are between 0 and (2 ** bitDepth) - 1. With a default bit depth of 8, values are within 0-255. A color with a bit depth of 16 will have values ranging from 0-65535.

** 8-bit color is sometimes referred to as 24-bit or 32-bit (8 bits per channel, with 32-bit including an alpha channel). This package uses the more correct implementation of 32-bit meaning 32 bits per channel, and so generally most use cases would fall between 8 and 16 bit color depth.

** A special note: Adobe uses 15+1 bit depth for 16-bit color, where the last bit is simply added to the first 15 bits.

Color.from('rgb',[r, g, b, a?],{
  bitDepth: number // optional, default = 8
})

.to('rgb',{
  bitDepth: number, // optional, default = 8
  round: boolean    // optional, default = true
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('rgb',[255, 0, 255])
let color3 = color2.to('rgb')

let color4 = Color.from('rgb',[1023, 0, 1023], { bitDepth: 10 })

HEX : Hexidecimal

May use string or numerical value. Strings are case-insensitive. Short form or long form may be used. # ignored if present.

Color.from('hex',hex)

.to('hex')

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('hex', 'ff00ff')
let color1 = Color.from('hex', '#FF00FF')
let color1 = Color.from('hex', 0xFF00FF)

let color3 = color2.to('hex')

Rec. 709 RGB : HD video standard

Limits RGB color to video levels (16 - 235 for 8-bit or 64 to 940 for 10-bit). Input bit depth must be 8 or 10. Conversion to Y'PbPr and Y'CbCr will fail as this module does not yet have gamma adjustment implemented.

This method does not currently support data levels.

RGB values may fall outside limits.

Alpha channel maintains data levels (0 - 255 / 0 - 1023).

Color.from('rec709rgb',[r, g, b, a?], {
  round: boolean,  // optional, defaults to true
  bitDepth: number // optional, defaults to 8, must be 8 or 10
})

.to('rec709rgb', {
  round: boolean,  // optional, defaults to true
  bitDepth: number // optional, defaults to 8, must be 8 or 10
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('rec709rgb', [235, 16, 235])
let color1 = Color.from('rec709rgb', [940, 64, 940], { bitDepth: 10 })

let color3 = color2.to('rec709rgb')
let color3 = color2.to('rec709rgb', { bitDepth: 10 })

Rec. 2020 RGB : UHD video standard

Limits RGB color to video levels (64 to 940 for 10-bit or 256 to 3760 for 12-bit). Input bit depth must be 10 or 12. Conversion to Y'PbPr and Y'CbCr will fail as this module does not yet have gamma adjustment implemented.

This method does not currently support data levels.

RGB values may fall outside limits.

Alpha channel maintains data levels (0 - 1023 / 0 - 4096).

Color.from('rec2020rgb',[r, g, b, a?], {
  round: boolean,  // optional, defaults to true
  bitDepth: number // optional, defaults to 10, must be 10 or 12
})

.to('rec2020rgb', {
  round: boolean,  // optional, defaults to true
  bitDepth: number // optional, defaults to 10, must be 10 or 12
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('rec2020rgb', [940, 64, 940])
let color1 = Color.from('rec2020rgb', [3760, 256, 3760], { bitDepth: 12 })

let color3 = color2.to('rec2020rgb')
let color3 = color2.to('rec2020rgb', { bitDepth: 10 })

HSV : Hue, Saturation, Value

Hue value is between 0 and 360. Saturation, value, and alpha are between 0 and 100 (as in, percent).

Color.from('hsv',[h, s, v, a?])

.to('hsv',{
  round: boolean // optional, default = true
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('hsv',[300, 100, 100])
let color3 = color2.to('hsv')

HSL : Hue, Saturation, Lightness

Hue value is between 0 and 360. Saturation, lightness, and alpha are between 0 and 100 (as in, percent).

Color.from('hsl',[h, s, l, a?])

.to('hsl',{
  round: boolean // optional, default = true
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('hsl',[300, 100, 50])
let color3 = color2.to('hsl')

HSI : Hue, Saturation, Intensity

Hue value is between 0 and 360. Saturation, intensity, and alpha are between 0 and 100 (as in, percent).

Color.from('hsi',[h, s, v, a?])

.to('hsi',{
  round: boolean // optional, default = true
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('hsi',[300, 100, 67])
let color3 = color2.to('hsi')

HSP : Hue, Saturation, Perceived Brightness

The formula used to generate HSP is similar to the one Photoshop uses when converting images to greyscale.

Hue value is between 0 and 360. Saturation, perceived brightness, and alpha are between 0 and 100 (as in, percent).

When passing PR and PB values, PR + PG + PB must = 1.

By default,

  • PR = 0.299
  • PG = 0.587
  • PB = 0.114

** This formula is not as accurate as most others, but does offer another way of adjusting brightness in an image.

Color.from('hsp',[h, s, p, a?],{
  pb: number, // optional, default = 0.114
  pr: number  // optional, default = 0.299
})

.to('hsp',{
  round: boolean, // optional, default = true
  pb: number,     // optional, default = 0.114
  pr: number      // optional, default = 0.299
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('hsp',[300, 100, 65]).to('rgb')
// rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
let color3 = Color.from('rgb',[255, 0, 255]).to('hsp')
// hsp { h: 300, s: 100, p: 64, a: 100, pr: 0.299, pg: 0.587, pb: 0.114 }

CMYK : Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black

All values are between 0 and 100 (as in, percent).

** Calculations do not take pigment conversion into account and should not be used to reference printed colors.

Color.from('cmyk',[c, m, y, k])

.to('cmyk',{
  round: boolean // optional, default = true
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('cmyk',[0, 100, 0, 0])
let color3 = color2.to('cmyk')

YIQ : NTSC Color

  • Y = luma
  • I = in-phase
  • Q = quadrature

When normalized:

  • Y is between 0 and 255
  • I and Q are between -128 and 128

When not normalized:

  • Y is between 0 and 1
  • I is between -0.5957 and 0.5957
  • Q is between -0.5226 and 0.5226
Color.from('yiq', [y, i, q], {
  normalized: boolean // optional, default = true
})

.to('yiq',{
  normalize: boolean, // optional, default = true
  round: boolean      // optional, default = true (ignored/false if not normalized)
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('yiq',[105, 59, 128])
let color3 = color2.to('yiq')

let color4 = Color.from('yiq', [0.413, 0.2746, 0.5226], {normalized: false})

XYZ : CIE XYZ

All values are between 0 and 1. XYZ is only defined within the constraints of a color space and reference white point of a standard illuminant. If one is not given, sRGB and D65 are used as the color space and standard illuminant.

  • X = mix of three CIE RGB curves chosen to be non-negative
  • Y = luminance
  • Z = quasi-equal to blue

It is not often useful to convert to XYZ, as XYZ defines real-world light and is typically then converted to a digital representation (most commonly RGB), but the functionality is present nonetheless.

Available Color Spaces and Stardard Illuminants below.

Color.from('xyz', [x, y, z], {
  colorSpace: string,    // optional, default = 'srgb'
  referenceWhite: string // optional, default = 'd65'
})

.to('xyz',{
  colorSpace: string,    // optional, default = 'srgb'
  referenceWhite: string // optional, default = 'd65'

})

YPbPr : Analog video component signals

Also written Y'PbPr or YPBPR.

  • Y' = luma and sync (brightness/luminance and syncrhonization)

  • Pb = difference between blue and luma (B - Y)

  • Pr = difference between red and luma (R - Y)

  • Kb = constant defined from target color space, such that Kb + Kr + Kg = 1

  • Kr = constant defined from target color space, such that Kb + Kr + Kg = 1

Kb and Kr constants are not yet included in this package.

Color.from('ypbpr', [y, pb, pr], {
  kb: number, // REQUIRED
  kr: number  // REQUIRED
})

.to('ypbpr',{
  kb: number, // REQUIRED
  kr: number  // REQUIRED
})

// YCbCr conversion
.to('ycbcr',{
  yLower: number, // optional, default = 16,  lower bounds of Y'
  yUpper: number, // optional, default = 235, upper bounds of Y'
  cLower: number, // optional, default = 16,  lower bounds of Cb and Cr
  cUpper: number  // optional, default = 240, upper bounds of Cb and Cr
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('ypbpr',[
  0.2848,
  0.3854278939426601,

  yLower: 0,
  yUpper: 255,
  cLower: 0,
  cUpper: 255
})

YCbCr : Digital video component signals

Also written Y'CbCr, Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr, YCBCR, or Y'CBCR.

  • Y' = luma and sync (brightness/luminance and syncrhonization)
  • Cb = difference between blue and luma (B - Y)
  • Cr = difference between red and luma (R - Y)

YCbCr conversions require Kb and Kr constants with the exception of converting to YPbPr. These values are not yet included in this package.

  • Kb = constant defined from target color space, such that Kb + Kr + Kg = 1
  • Kr = constant defined from target color space, such that Kb + Kr + Kg = 1

Upper and lower bounds vary with color space. It's recommended to always supply these values.

Color.from('ycbcr', [y, cb, cr], {
  yLower: number, // optional, default = 16,  lower bounds of Y'
  yUpper: number, // optional, default = 235, upper bounds of Y'
  cLower: number, // optional, default = 16,  lower bounds of Cb and Cr
  cUpper: number  // optional, default = 240, upper bounds of Cb and Cr
)

.to('ycbcr',{
  kb: number, // REQUIRED
  kr: number  // REQUIRED
})

// YPbPr conversion
.to('ypbpr',{
  yLower: number, // optional, default = 16,  lower bounds of Y'
  yUpper: number, // optional, default = 235, upper bounds of Y'
  cLower: number, // optional, default = 16,  lower bounds of Cb and Cr
  cUpper: number  // optional, default = 240, upper bounds of Cb and Cr
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('ycbcr', [73, 226, 243])
let color3 = color2.to('ycbcr',{
  kb: 0.0722, // Rec709
  kr: 0.2126  // Rec709
})
let color4 = color1.to('ypbpr')
let color5 = color1.to('ypbpr',{
  yLower: 0,
  yUpper: 255,
  cLower: 0,
  cUpper: 255
})

NM : Wavelengths of light

This is a one-way approximation and is hugely perceptual. There is no .to('nm') method option.

Color.from('nm', wavelength)

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('nm',600).to('rgb')
// rgb { r: 255, g: 190, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

Kelvin : Color Temperature Approximation

This is a one-way approximatin. There is no .to('kelvin') method option.

Color.from('kelvin', degrees)

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('kelvin',3500).to('rgb')
// rgb { r: 255, g: 193, b: 141, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

Color Spaces and Standard Illuminants

For conversion to and from XYZ, xyY, L*a*b*, and L*u*v*, the following color spaces and standard illuminants have XYZ transformation matrices and reference white point vectors available:

Color SpaceStandard Illuminants
sRGBD65, D50
CIE RGBE, D50
Adobe RGBD65, D50
Apple RGBD65, D50
Best RGBD50
Bruce RGBD65, D50
ColorMatch RGBD50
Don RGB 4D50
ECI RGB v2D50
Ekta Space PS5D50
NTSC RGBC, D50
PAL / SECAM RGBD65, D50
ProPhoto RGBD50
SMPTE-C RGBD65, D50
Wide Gamut RGBD50

Color spaces and standard illuminant arguments are case-insensitive. Color space argument ignores any character not alphanumeric. Some common misspellings / words left out are also taken into account. (PAL / SECAM is equivalent to palsecamrgb.)

Modifying Colors

Blending Two Colors

When blending two colors, the amount ∈ [0,1] refers to the percentage the second color is blended with the first. In other words, 0 means 0% of the second color and 100% of the first while 1 means 100% of the second color and 0% of the first.

Blending methods include: rgb, hsv

let color3 = color1.modify('blend', {
  with: color2,   // REQUIRED, can be any color of any type
  amount: number, // optional, 0 - 1, defaults to 0.5
  method: string  // optional, defaults to 'rgb'
})

// e.g.
let color4 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,0]).modify('blend', {
  with: Color.from('hex','00ff00')
})
// rgb { r: 128, g: 128, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

let color5 = Color.from('hex','ee5432').modify('blend', {
  with: Color.from('rgb',[234, 100, 20, 64]),
  amount: 1/3
}).to('hsv')
// hsv { h: 15, s: 83, v: 93, a: 75 }

Darken

Methods available are: hsl/lightness, hsp/perceived

These methods are intended to provide alternative ways of modifying a color versus changing the values directly, which can make more sense.

let color2 = color1.modify('darken', {
  amount: number, // optional, 0 - 1, defaults to 0.5
  method: string  // optional, defaults to 'lightness'
  round: boolean  // optional, defaults to true
})

// e.g.
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255,200]).modify('darken',{method:'lightness'})
// rgb { r: 128, g: 0, b: 128, a: 200, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[100,0,100]).modify('darken',{method:'hsp'})
// rgb { r: 52, g: 0, b: 52, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

Lighten

Methods available are: hsl/lightness, hsp/perceived

These methods are intended to provide alternative ways of modifying a color versus changing the values directly, which can make more sense.

let color2 = color1.modify('lighten', {
  amount: number, // optional, 0 - 1, defaults to 0.5
  method: string  // optional, defaults to 'lightness'
  round: boolean  // optional, defaults to true
})

// e.g.
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255,200]).modify('lighten',{method:'lightness'})
// rgb { r: 255, g: 128, b: 255, a: 200, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[100,0,100]).modify('lighten',{method:'hsp'})
// rgb { r: 250, g: 0, b: 250, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

Saturate

Methods available are: hsv, hsl. The input color type does not matter.

These methods are intended to provide alternative ways of modifying a color versus changing the values directly, which can make more sense.

let color2 = color1.modify('saturate', {
  amount: number, // optional, 0 - 1, defaults to 0.5
  method: string  // optional, defaults to 'hsl'
  round: boolean  // optional, defaults to true
})

// e.g.
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[128,64,128,200]).modify('saturate','hsl')
// rgb { r: 160, g: 32, b: 160, a: 200, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[128,64,128,200]).modify('saturate','hsv')
// rgb { r: 128, g: 32, b: 128, a: 200, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

Desaturate

Methods available are: hsv, hsl. The input color type does not matter.

These methods are intended to provide alternative ways of modifying a color versus changing the values directly, which can make more sense.

let color2 = color1.modify('saturate', {
  amount: number, // optional, 0 - 1, defaults to 0.5
  method: string  // optional, defaults to 'hsl'
  round: boolean  // optional, defaults to true
})

// e.g.
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255,200]).modify('desaturate','hsl')
// rgb { r: 191, g: 64, b: 191, a: 200, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255,200]).modify('desaturate','hsl')
// rgb { r: 255, g: 128, b: 255, a: 200, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }

Color Scheme Generation

Schemes can be generated from any color type. All methods return an array of colors, each the same as the input type. (If calling method on a color of type hsl, all values of the returned array will be of type hsl.)

.scheme(type: string)
// or
.scheme(type: string, {
  angle: number // optional, hue shift angle in degrees
})

Complementary Schemes

Complementary color scheme generation has a fixed angle of 180°.

.scheme('complement') // angle = 180

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255]).scheme('complement')
// [
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
// ]

Analogous, Triadic, & Split Complement Schemes

These three methods are synonyms with different default angles.

.scheme('analogous', {
  angle: number // optional, default = 30
})
.scheme('triadic', {
  angle: number // optional, default = 120
})
.scheme('splitcomplement', {
  angle: number // optional, default = 150
})

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255]).scheme('analogous')
// [
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 128, g: 255, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 128, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
// ]
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255]).scheme('triadic')
// [
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 255, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
// ]
let color3 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255]).scheme('splitcomplement',{angle: 160})
// [
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 85, g: 255, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 85, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
// ]

Tetradic & Square Schemes

These two methods are synonyms, but that the square method has a fixed angle of 90°.

.scheme('tetradic', {
  angle: number // optional, default = 45
})
.scheme('square') // angle = 90

// e.g.
let color1 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255]).scheme('tetradic',{angle: 42})
// [
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 76, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 179, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
// ]
let color2 = Color.from('rgb',[255,0,255]).scheme('square')
// [
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 0, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 255, g: 128, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 128, b: 255, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 },
//   rgb { r: 0, g: 255, b: 0, a: 255, bitDepth: 8, max: 255 }
// ]

To Do List

  • Gamma adjustment modification
  • Auto-gamma adjustment and conversion for rec709, rec2020, and jpeg to/from ypbpr
    • note to self: rec709 does gamma conversion before while rec2020 does gamma conversion after when converting to ypbpr (I think)
  • Create color schemes / gradient schemes based on tints and shades
  • Generate gradients given two colors
  • Generate triangular gradients based on three colors
  • Modification methods that retain luma
