A script for grabbing the color palette from an image. Uses Javascript and the canvas tag to make it happen.

How to use

Get the dominant color from an image

var colorThief = new ColorThief();
colorThief.getColor(sourceImage);

getColor(sourceImage[, quality])
returns {r: num, g: num, b: num}

Build a color palette from an image

In this example, we build an 8 color palette.

var colorThief = new ColorThief();
colorThief.getPalette(sourceImage, 8);

getPalette(sourceImage[, colorCount, quality])
returns [ [num, num, num], [num, num, num], ... ]

Node.js

Install the module via npm

npm install color-thief

And use it:

var ColorThief = require("color-thief");
