ESLint is Now Language-Agnostic: Linting JSON, Markdown, and Beyond
ESLint has added JSON and Markdown linting support with new officially-supported plugins, expanding its versatility beyond JavaScript.
The 'color' npm package is a library for immutable color conversion and manipulation with support for CSS color strings.
Color Parsing
Parse a CSS string to create a Color object.
const Color = require('color');
const color = Color('rgb(255, 255, 255)');
Color Manipulation
Manipulate colors by lightening, darkening, saturating, desaturating, etc., and then output as a string in a specified format.
const Color = require('color');
const color = Color('blue');
const lighterColor = color.lighten(0.5).hex();
Color Conversion
Convert colors between different models like RGB, HSL, HEX, etc.
const Color = require('color');
const color = Color('blue');
const rgbString = color.rgb().string();
chroma-js is a powerful library for all kinds of color conversions and color scales. It offers more complex color scale functions and color blending capabilities compared to 'color'.
tinycolor2 is a small, fast library for color manipulation and conversion in JavaScript. It provides similar functionality to 'color' but with a different API design and additional functions for color analysis.
color-convert is a library that handles the conversion between different color models. It is more focused on conversion than manipulation, unlike 'color' which offers both.
JavaScript library for immutable color conversion and manipulation with support for CSS color strings.
var color = Color('#7743CE').alpha(0.5).lighten(0.5);
console.log(color.hsl().string()); // 'hsla(262, 59%, 81%, 0.5)'
console.log(color.cmyk().round().array()); // [ 16, 25, 0, 8, 0.5 ]
console.log(color.ansi256().object()); // { ansi256: 183, alpha: 0.5 }
$ npm install color
var Color = require('color');
var color = Color('rgb(255, 255, 255)')
var color = Color({r: 255, g: 255, b: 255})
var color = Color.rgb(255, 255, 255)
var color = Color.rgb([255, 255, 255])
Set the values for individual channels with alpha
, red
, green
, blue
, hue
, saturation
(hsl), saturationv
(hsv), lightness
, whiteness
, blackness
, cyan
, magenta
, yellow
, black
color.rgb() // {r: 255, g: 255, b: 255}
Get a hash of the rgb values with rgb()
, similarly for hsl()
, hsv()
, and cmyk()
color.rgb().array() // [255, 255, 255]
Get an array of the values with rgbArray()
, hslArray()
, hsvArray()
, and cmykArray()
.
color.red() // 255
Get the value for an individual channel.
color.hsl().string() // 'hsl(320, 50%, 100%)'
Calling .string()
with a number rounds the numbers to that decimal place. It defaults to 1.
color.luminosity(); // 0.412
The WCAG luminosity of the color. 0 is black, 1 is white.
color.contrast(Color("blue")) // 12
The WCAG contrast ratio to another color, from 1 (same color) to 21 (contrast b/w white and black).
color.light(); // true
color.dark(); // false
Get whether the color is "light" or "dark", useful for deciding text color.
color.negate() // rgb(0, 100, 255) -> rgb(255, 155, 0)
color.lighten(0.5) // hsl(100, 50%, 50%) -> hsl(100, 50%, 75%)
color.darken(0.5) // hsl(100, 50%, 50%) -> hsl(100, 50%, 25%)
color.saturate(0.5) // hsl(100, 50%, 50%) -> hsl(100, 75%, 50%)
color.desaturate(0.5) // hsl(100, 50%, 50%) -> hsl(100, 25%, 50%)
color.grayscale() // #5CBF54 -> #969696
color.whiten(0.5) // hwb(100, 50%, 50%) -> hwb(100, 75%, 50%)
color.blacken(0.5) // hwb(100, 50%, 50%) -> hwb(100, 50%, 75%)
color.fade(0.5) // rgba(10, 10, 10, 0.8) -> rgba(10, 10, 10, 0.4)
color.opaquer(0.5) // rgba(10, 10, 10, 0.8) -> rgba(10, 10, 10, 1.0)
color.rotate(180) // hsl(60, 20%, 20%) -> hsl(240, 20%, 20%)
color.rotate(-90) // hsl(60, 20%, 20%) -> hsl(330, 20%, 20%)
color.mix(Color("yellow")) // cyan -> rgb(128, 255, 128)
color.mix(Color("yellow"), 0.3) // cyan -> rgb(77, 255, 179)
// chaining
color.green(100).grayscale().lighten(0.6)
The API was inspired by color-js. Manipulation functions by CSS tools like Sass, LESS, and Stylus.
