FAST Colors

@microsoft/fast-colors includes a number of color classes and utilities designed to make parsing and manipulating colors easy, fast, and light-weight.

Color classes

There are a number of color classes exported for common color formats. These include:

• ColorHSL
• ColorHSV
• ColorLAB
• ColorLCH
• ColorRGBA64 (note each channel is a number from 0-1)
• ColorXYZ

const myColor: new ColorRGBA64(0, 0, 0, 1);

myColor.toStringHexRGB() // "#000000"

Color parsers

A number of color parsers are also available to parse a variety of different color formats.

• parseColorHexRGB(raw: string): ColorRGBA64 | null parses #RGB or #RRGGBB color strings
• parseColorHexARGB(raw: string): ColorRGBA64 | null parses #ARGB or #AARRGGBB color strings
• parseColorHexRGBA(raw: string): ColorRGBA64 | null parses #RGBA or #RRGGBBAA color strings
• parseColorWebRGB(raw: string): ColorRGBA64 | null parses #rgb(R, G, B) color strings
• parseColorWebRGBA(raw: string): ColorRGBA64 | null parses #rgb(R, G, B, A) color strings
• parseColorNamned(raw: string): ColorRGBA64 | null parses named color strings

Color Palette

A utility for creating a palette of colors from a source color and configuration options:

• baseColor?: ColorRGBA64
• steps?: number
• interpolationMode?: ColorInterpolationSpace
• scaleColorLight?: ColorRGBA64
• scaleColorDark?: ColorRGBA64
• clipLight?: number
• clipDark?: number
• saturationAdjustmentCutoff?: number
• saturationLight?: number
• saturationDark?: number
• overlayLight?: number
• overlayDark?: number
• multiplyLight?: number
• multiplyDark?: number

Example:

const palette: ColorPalette = new ColorPalette({
    baseColor: new ColorRGBA64(.4, .4, .7, 1),
    steps: 99,
    interpolationMode: ColorInterpolationSpace.RGB
})

Color converters

A number of color converters are available to convert one color format to the other. Each color accepts a color class of the source type and returns a color class of the converted type:

• hslToRGB
• rgbToHSL
• rgbToHSV
• hsvToRGB
• lchToLAB
• labToLCH
• labToXYZ
• xyzToLAB
• rgbToXYZ
• xyzToRGB
• rgbToLAB
• labToRGB
• rgbToLCH
• lchToRGB

const rgb: ColorRGBA64 = new ColorRGBA64(.5, .5, .5, 1);
const hsl: ColorHSL = rgbToHSL(rgb);
