@iamsuz/color-kit v1.1.2

Color Kit

A simple, yet powerful package for identifying and matching colors in JavaScript and Typescript.

Features

• Color Matching: Match a color to the closest predefined color in the palette.
• Hex to RGB Conversion: Convert any hex color code to RGB values.
• Euclidean Distance: Calculate the Euclidean distance between colors to determine the closest match.
• Exact Match Detection: Quickly find if a color exactly matches one from the predefined palette.

Installation

To install color-kit, run the following command in your terminal:

npm install @iamsuz/color-kit

Usage

Importing the Package

const { identifyColor } = require("@iamsuz/color-kit");

For TypeScript users, the package provides type definitions for the functions. You can import the package as follows:

import { identifyColor, rgb, calculateDistance } from "@iamsuz/color-kit";

Identifying a Color

You can pass a hex color code to the identifyColor function to get the closest match, color name, and more.

const { inputColor, colorName, closestHex, exactMatch } =
	identifyColor("#DD4C22");
console.log(inputColor); // #DD4C22
console.log(colorName); // Name of the closest matching color
console.log(closestHex); // Closest hex color
console.log(exactMatch); // Boolean if exact match

const { inputColor, colorName, closestHex, exactMatch } =
	identifyColor("#DD4C22");

console.log(inputColor); // #DD4C22
console.log(colorName); // string
console.log(closestHex); // string
console.log(exactMatch); // boolean

Example Output

{
	"inputColor": "#DD4C22",
	"colorName": "Vivid Orange",
	"closestHex": "#DD4C22",
	"exactMatch": true
}

Color Matching and RGB Conversion

• Hex to RGB: Convert hex colors to RGB format using the rgb() function.

const rgb = rgb("#DD4C22");
console.log(rgb); // [221, 76, 34]

• Euclidean Distance: Calculate the Euclidean distance between two RGB colors to determine the closest match.

const rgb1 = [221, 76, 34];
const rgb2 = [255, 255, 255];
const distance = calculateDistance(rgb1, rgb2);
console.log(distance); // Distance between two colors

TypeScript Types

The @iamsujit/color-kit package includes the following Typescript types:

• identifyColor: Returns an object with properties inputColor, colorName, closestHex, and exactMatch.
• rgb: Converts a hex color to an RGB tuple ([r, g, b]).
• calculateDistance: Returns the Euclidean distance between two RGB values.

These types will be automatically available when using the package in a TypeScript project.
