Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

color-parse

Parse CSS color strings, with added support for other color models not included in the CSS specification.

Usage

npm install @colorsuite/color-parse
import { parseColor } from '@szydlovski/color-parse';

parseColor('#fabfab66') // [ [ 250, 191, 171, 0.4 ], 'rgb' ]
parseColor('hsl(270,20%,50%)') // [ [ 270, 20, 50, 1 ], 'hsl' ]

// # in hexes is optional
parseColor('fff') // [ [ 255, 255, 255, 1 ], 'rgb' ]

// whitespace is ignored
parseColor('# a 5 a 5 a 5') // [ [ 165, 165, 165, 1 ], 'rgb' ]

// rgb/rgba and hsl/hsla are treated as aliases
parseColor('rgba(120,70,70,0.45)') // [ [ 120, 70, 70, 0.45 ], 'rgb' ]
parseColor('rgb(120,70,70,0.45)') // [ [ 120, 70, 70, 0.45 ], 'rgb' ]

// if the color is not valid
parseColor('not a valid color') // [undefined, undefined]

// also available as cjs
const { parseColor } = require('@szydlovski/color-parse/cjs');

API

parseColor(colorString)

Arguments:

  • colorString - string - the string to parse for colors

Returns:

  • [colorArray, colorSpace] - array - a tuple containing
    • colorArray - array - containing parsed color values, i.e. [255,255,255]
    • colorSpace - string - denoting the parsed color space, i.e. rgb

Throws:

  • TypeError - if the first argument is not a string

Specification and compatibility

  • Parsing of hex strings with alpha values (i.e. #ffffff00 or #fff0) is supported, and # in hexes is optional
  • CSS only officially supports hexes, rbg and hsl. This library will also identify hsv, hsb (an alias of hsv) and hwb colors.
  • CSS treats rgb as an alias for rgba and vice versa (the same goes for hsl and hsla), which is why this library will also parse alpha values from rgb and hsl, and add a default alpha of 1 if it's not present.
  • Parsed values are not validated or clamped to any value range.
