NAME

Convert::Color::Library - named lookup of colors from Color::Library

SYNOPSIS

Directly:

use Convert::Color::Library;

my $red = Convert::Color::Library->new( 'red' );

# Only use the SVG dictionary
my $brown = Convert::Color::Library->new( 'svg/brown' );

# Use either HTML or SVG dictionary
my $pink = Convert::Color::Library->new( 'html,svg/pink' );

Via Convert::Color:

use Convert::Color;

my $cyan = Convert::Color->new( 'lib:cyan' );

my $darkcyan = Convert::Color->new( 'lib:windows/darkcyan' );

DESCRIPTION

This subclass of Convert::Color::RGB8 provides lookup of color names using Robert Krimen's Color::Library module. It therefore provides convenient access to named colours in many dictionaries, such as SVG, X11 and HTML.

CONSTRUCTOR

$color = Convert::Color::Library->new( $name )

Returns a new object to represent the named color.

If the name is of the form

dicts/name

Then dicts is parsed as a comma-separated list of dictionary names to pass to Color::Library.

TODO

  • Consider an API for getting the list of dictionary names and colour names. That said, it's easy enough to do directly to Color::Library, so maybe not needed.
