bryt-lite

Get colors by brightness.

NPM Version NPM Downloads

Overview

bryt provides an API for getting all colors for a given brightness. A brightness is represented by an integer between 0 and 255. Some brightnesses have more colors than others.

Determining a color's brightness is a pretty simple calculation, but choosing a color by brightness is not. bryt-lite uses a pre-baked lookup table of brightnesses and their associated colors.

There are 16,777,216 possible 24-bit colors which takes up 66 MB. With some clever hacks and Brotli compression, we can squeeze this size down to a little over 3 MB, but this is still too big.

bryt-lite has reduced the number of colors per brightness that are similar to each other. Instead of 16 million colors, bryt-lite only has 7,204 colors and requires 66 KB on disk.

If you want the full lookup table and don't mind the 3MB size, you can always use bryt. The bryt-lite API is identical to bryt's API.

Installation

npm install bryt-lite

Examples

Get brightness info.

import * as bryt from 'bryt-lite';

const info = bryt.getBrightness(128);
console.log(`Brightness ${info.brightness} has ${info.count} colors`);

for (let i = 0; i < info.count; i++) {
	console.log(`Color ${i + 1}) ${info.getColor(i)}`);
}

console.log('All colors:', info.getColors());

Get a specific color by brightness and index.

const color = bryt.getColor(200, 3);

Get all colors for a specific brightness. Note that this is not super performant.

const colors = bryt.getColors(187);
for (const color of colors) {
	console.log(color);
}

Convert a integer color to an RGB array.

const color = bryt.getColor(200, 3);
const [ red, green, blue ] = bryt.toRGB(color);
console.log(`red: ${red}, green: ${green}, blue ${blue}`);
