Get Started

To start using ChromaPalette, simply clone or download the repository from GitHub and import it into your favorite data visualization tool.

git clone https://github.com/SabrinaSun1225/ChromaPalette

python setup.py install

You may update your PYTHONPATH with

export PYTHONPATH="put-your-path-here:$PYTHONPATH"

The following code can be used to import ChromaPalette:

from ChromaPalette.chroma_palette import *

To generate a list of colors from a color scheme, you can use the following code:

your_color_list = color_palette(name="Sunrise",N=8)

Here, "N" is the number of colors and "name" is the name of the color scheme.

If you have a HEX code, but you want its RGB code. You can use function "hex_to_rgb":

rgb = hex_to_rgb(hex)

To convert an RGB code (e.g., rgb=[R, G, B]) to a HEX code, you can use the 'rgb_to_hex' function:

hex = rgb_to_hex(rgb)
