Module:Color/doc

This module is rated as beta, and is ready for widespread use. It is still new and should be used with some caution to ensure the results are as expected.

This module is used primarily by {{Infobox color}}, eliminating the need for external color converters and preventing mismatch between color coordinates.

Usage

To use this module, you may use one of the above listed templates or invoke the module directly. All functions that accept hexadecimal triplets also handle the shorthand three-digit format.

To convert a hexadecimal triplet to an RGB triplet as comma-separated values:

{{#invoke:Color|hexToRgbTriplet|color}}

To convert a hexadecimal triplet to the CMYK color model without a color profile:

{{#invoke:Color|hexToCmyk|color|precision=?|pctsign=?}}

To convert a hexadecimal triplet to HSL or HSV:

{{#invoke:Color|hexToHsl|color|precision=?}}

{{#invoke:Color|hexToHsv|color|precision=?}}

To convert a hexadecimal triplet to the perceptual CIELCh_uv color space:

{{#invoke:Color|hexToCielch|color|precision=?}}

To mix two colors:

{{#invoke:Color|hexMix|color1|color2|proportion}}

The following parameters are optional:

• precision: defaults to 0 (zero)
• pctsign: set to 0 (zero) to suppress percent signs in the generated output
• proportion: percentage of color2, 0 (zero) outputs color1, defaults to 50
