A ruby gem that extracts a palette of most representative colors from images.
Inspired by color-thief by Lokesh Dhakar (https://github.com/lokesh/color-thief) and Camalian by Nazar Hussain (https://github.com/nazarhussain/camalian/blob/master/camalian.gemspec)
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
$ bundle add huespace
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
$ gem install huespace
In the following text image_source means one of the following:
- path to the image stored locally
- url of the image
- image as a stream of bytes (so you can fetch it once on the backend)
Returns an array of colors, exp. [[47, 48, 62], [91, 92, 117], [218, 154, 95]]
Huespace.get_palette(image_source, n_colors)
Returns the color that best represents the image
Huespace.get_dominant_color(image_source)
Returns the most colorful (probably best described as most vibrant) color from a palette of 6 colors
Huespace.get_most_colorful_color(image_source)
