color-space

What is color-space?

The color-space npm package provides a comprehensive set of tools for color space conversion and manipulation. It supports a wide range of color spaces and allows for easy conversion between them.

What are color-space's main functionalities?

RGB to HSL Conversion

This feature allows you to convert colors from the RGB color space to the HSL color space. The code sample demonstrates converting a red color in RGB to its HSL representation.

const colorSpace = require('color-space');
const rgb = [255, 0, 0];
const hsl = colorSpace.rgb.hsl(rgb);
console.log(hsl); // [0, 100, 50]

HSL to RGB Conversion

This feature allows you to convert colors from the HSL color space to the RGB color space. The code sample demonstrates converting a red color in HSL to its RGB representation.

const colorSpace = require('color-space');
const hsl = [0, 100, 50];
const rgb = colorSpace.hsl.rgb(hsl);
console.log(rgb); // [255, 0, 0]

CMYK to RGB Conversion

This feature allows you to convert colors from the CMYK color space to the RGB color space. The code sample demonstrates converting a red color in CMYK to its RGB representation.

const colorSpace = require('color-space');
const cmyk = [0, 1, 1, 0];
const rgb = colorSpace.cmyk.rgb(cmyk);
console.log(rgb); // [255, 0, 0]

XYZ to LAB Conversion

This feature allows you to convert colors from the XYZ color space to the LAB color space. The code sample demonstrates converting a color in XYZ to its LAB representation.

const colorSpace = require('color-space');
const xyz = [41.24, 21.26, 1.93];
const lab = colorSpace.xyz.lab(xyz);
console.log(lab); // [53.23288178584245, 80.10930952982204, 67.22006831026425]

Compared to color-space, color-convert is more focused on providing a straightforward conversion API without additional manipulation features.

chroma-js

Chroma.js is a powerful library for color manipulation and conversion. It supports a wide range of color spaces and provides additional features for color interpolation, blending, and more. Compared to color-space, Chroma.js offers more advanced color manipulation capabilities and a more user-friendly API.

tinycolor2

TinyColor is a small, fast library for color manipulation and conversion. It supports a variety of color spaces and provides a simple API for common color operations. Compared to color-space, TinyColor is more lightweight and focused on providing essential color manipulation features.

Usage

import space from 'color-space';

//convert lab to lch
var result = space.lab.lch([80,50,60]);

Spaces can be imported separately:

import rgb from 'color-space/rgb.js';
import hsl from 'color-space/hsl.js';

//convert rgb to hsl
rgb.hsl([200, 230, 100]);

API

<fromSpace>.<toSpace>(array);
<space>.name //space name
<space>.channel //channel names
<space>.min //channel minimums
<space>.max //channel maximums

Purpose

A complete collection of color spaces with minimal consistent and clean API, verified formulas and cases. While alternatives focus on digital color spaces, this project takes broader perspective, including historical / multidisciplinary spaces. A side effect is verifying and correcting papers.
