okcolor 1.1.0

A Dart package for working with colors in the Oklab color space, providing utilities for color manipulation, conversion, and analysis.

OkColor

A Flutter package for working with perceptually uniform color spaces, based on the groundbreaking work of Björn Ottosson. OkColor provides powerful utilities for color manipulation, conversion, and analysis.

Features

• Work with perceptually uniform color spaces: OkLab, OkLCH, OkHSV, and OkHSL
• Seamless color conversions between RGB, HSV, HSL, and Ok* color spaces
• Advanced color manipulations: lightening, darkening, saturation adjustments, and more
• Generate harmonious color palettes and smooth gradients
• Gamut mapping and clipping functions for color accuracy

Getting Started

Add okcolor to your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  okcolor: ^1.0.1

Then run flutter pub get.

Usage

Color Extensions

OkColor extends the Flutter Color class with convenient methods:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:okcolor/okcolor.dart';

void main() {
  Color color = Colors.blue;
  // Convert to different color spaces
  OkLab oklab = color.toOkLab();
  OkLch oklch = color.toOkLch();
  OkHsv okhsv = color.toOkHsv();
  OkHsl okhsl = color.toOkHsl();

  // Color manipulations
  Color darkerColor = color.darker(0.2);
  Color lighterColor = color.lighter(0.2);
  Color saturatedColor = color.saturate(0.2);
  Color desaturatedColor = color.desaturate(0.2);
  Color rotatedColor = color.rotated(45);
  Color complementaryColor = color.complementary();
  
  // Generate color harmonies
  List<Color> splitComplementaryColors = color.splitComplementary();
  List<Color> triadicColors = color.triadic();
  List<Color> tetradicColors = color.tetradic();
  List<Color> analogousColors = color.analogous(count: 3);
  List<Color> shades = color.shades(count: 5);
  List<Color> tints = color.tints(count: 5);
}

Color Models

OkColor provides four main color models:

1. OkLab: Perceptually uniform lightness, a and b channels
2. OkLch: Perceptually uniform lightness, chroma, and hue
3. OkHsv: Perceptually uniform hue, saturation, and value
4. OkHsl: Perceptually uniform hue, saturation, and lightness

Each model comes with its own set of manipulation methods and conversions.

Converters

OkColor includes converters between various color spaces:

import 'package:okcolor/okcolor.dart';
void main() {
  // RGB to OkLab
  OkLab oklab = rgbToOkLab(RGB(1.0, 0.5, 0.2));
  // OkLab to RGB
  RGB rgb = okLabToRgb(OkLab(0.7, 0.2, -0.1));
  // OkLab to OkLCH
  OkLch oklch = labToLch(OkLab(0.7, 0.2, -0.1));
  // OkLCH to OkLab
  OkLab oklab2 = lchToLab(OkLch(0.7, 0.2, 1.5));
  // RGB to OkHSV
  OkHsv okhsv = rgbToOkhsv(RGB(1.0, 0.5, 0.2));
  // OkHSV to RGB
  RGB rgb2 = okhsvToRgb(OkHsv(0.1, 0.8, 0.9));
  // Similar converters exist for OkHSL and other color space combinations
}
