API

Color

Return the predominant color of the image. You can use a React component or hook. Both have the same props.

src: Required. Link of the image

format: Format of the response. Can be rgbString, rgbArray, hslString, hslArray, hex or a CSS keyword. Default is rgbString

Color conversion is made possible by the color-convert package.

Examples

rgbString: 'rgb(89, 197, 182)' rgbArray: [89, 197, 182] hslString: 'hsl(172, 48%, 56%)' hslArray: [172, 48, 56] hex: '#59c5b6' keyword: 'mediumaquamarine'

CSS Keywords keyword: Color keywords are case-insensitive identifiers that represent a specific color, such as red, blue, black, or lightseagreen.

Keywords are matched to the closest color. See this page on Web Colors for a complete list of colors that can be returned with the keyword color format.

crossOrigin: Tag cross-origin for image

quality: Quality determines how many pixels are skipped before the next one is sampled. We rarely need to sample every single pixel in the image to get good results. The bigger the number, the faster a value will be returned. Read more in https://lokeshdhakar.com/projects/color-thief/

Usage

import { useColor } from 'color-thief-react'

const { data, loading, error } = useColor(src, format, { crossOrigin, quality})

<div style={{ color: data }}>
  Text with the predominant color
</div>

import Color from 'color-thief-react';
// In your render...
<Color src={IMAGE_URL} format="hex">
