Palettes Functions

Available functions:

• ColorPalette.__init__(base_color): Initializes the color palette with a base color.

• ColorPalette.generate_complementary(): Generates a complementary color palette.

• ColorPalette.generate_analogous(angle=30): Generates an analogous color palette.

• ColorPalette.generate_triadic(): Generates a triadic color palette.

• ColorPalette.generate_tetradic(): Generates a tetradic color palette.

• ColorPalette.generate_square(): Generates a square color palette.

• ColorPalette.generate_split_complementary(): Generates a split-complementary color palette.

• ColorPalette.generate_monochromatic(shades=24): Generates a monochromatic color palette with varying lightness.

• ColorPalette.palette_to_hex(): Converts the RGB palette to HEX format.

• ColorPalette.generate_random_palette(): Generates a random base color and its associated palettes.

• ColorPalette.generate_random_color(): Generates a random RGB color and converts it to HEX and HSL formats.

• ColorPalette.generate_random_hex_colors(n=10): Generates a list of random colors in HEX format.

To use ColorPalette, you must first initialize it with a base color (RGB tuple) before use:

color_manager = ColorManager(base_color)

This, however, is not needed when using for random generation, you can init with a default RGB color of (0,0,0), which is black.

Generate complementary

Generates a complementary color palette.

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the complementary palette.

Generate analogous

Generates an analogous color palette.

Parameters:
    angle (int): The angle difference for analogous colors (default 30).

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the analogous palette.

angle represents how close the color values are to each other. You can lower the angle to say 15, for closer colors to that of the base color, or even increase it for colors that are still analogous in a sense, but further away.

Generate triadic

Generates a triadic color palette.

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the triadic palette.

Generate tetradic

Generates a tetradic color palette.

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the tetradic palette.

Generate square

Generates a square color palette.

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the square palette.

Generate split-complementary

Generates a split-complementary color palette.

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the split-complementary palette.

Generate monochromatic

Generates a monochromatic color palette.

Parameters:
    shades (int): Number of shades to generate (default 24).

Returns:
    list: A list of RGB tuples representing the monochromatic palette.

Palette to HEX

Converts the RGB palette to HEX format.

Returns:
    list: A list of HEX strings representing the palette.

Generate random palette

Generates a random base color and its associated palettes.

Returns:
    dict: A dictionary containing the following keys:
        - 'Base Color' (tuple): The randomly generated RGB base color, e.g., (R, G, B).
        - 'Complementary Palette' (list): A list of colors in the complementary palette.
        - 'Analogous Palette' (list): A list of colors in the analogous palette.
        - 'Triadic Palette' (list): A list of colors in the triadic palette.
        - 'Monochromatic Palette' (list): A list of colors in the monochromatic palette.

Generate random color

Generates a random RGB color and converts it to HEX and HSL formats.

Returns:
    dict: A dictionary containing:
        - "RGB Color" (tuple): The random RGB color as a tuple of three integers.
        - "HEX Color" (str): The color converted into HEX format.
        - "HSL Color" (tuple): The color converted into HSL format.

Generate random HEX colors

Generates a list of random colors in HEX format.

Parameters:
    n (int, optional): The number of random HEX colors to generate. Default is 10.

Returns:
    list: A list of HEX color strings.

We chose to add a batch HEX color generate function just for accessibility since HEX is popular, but you can quickly convert the colors to other formats as well.
