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 🙏

Determine if a set of values could be an RGB or RGBA color

Description

Function to determine if a given set of values could be an RGBA color.

The reason we can only say 'looks like', is because it's impossible to be sure.

Consider these examples:

Black - this is the only colour that works for both formats:

[0, 0, 0, 1] // RGBA
[0, 0, 0, 1] // HSL

White in HSL turns into dark green as RGB but both are valid

[0, 0, 100, 1] // White as HSL

A nice orange colour in HSL turns green as RGB, while brown as RGB turns green as HSL!

As you can see, while there are differences in the allowed range for each value, there is also a lot of crossover which produce very different colours.

See...


Install

npm install --save @chriscodesthings/color-looks-like-rgba

Usage

import colorLooksLikeRGBA from '@chriscodesthings/color-looks-like-rgba';

console.log(colorLooksLikeRGBA([100, 149, 237, 1])); // cornflowerblue
// => true

Types

This package uses types from:

Syntax

colorLooksLikeRGBA([r, g, b, (a)]);

Parameters

  • r, g, b: red, green and blue values in the range 0-255
  • a (optional): alpha value in the range 0-1

Returns

Returns true if the values could be an RGBA color, false otherwise.

Examples

// called when some input changes
function setNewColour(r, g, b, a) {
    if( !colorLooksLikeRGBA[r, g, b, a]) {
        return;
    }

    // do something
}
