@rabiepenpm/molestias-ipsum-ea is a fast and lightweight javascript library for generating unique and beautiful colors from any texts or numbers.
- There is no need to store colors in the database anymore, just use @rabiepenpm/molestias-ipsum-ea to generate colors at runtime and it will generate the same output every time, on any platform (Server, Browser or Mobile).
- You can generate a unique color from UUID, MongoDB ObjectId or anything that can be converted to a string or number
- You can generate a random color
- You can control the color saturation and lightness
- There is no need for an extra color library to change the color format or indicating whether the color brightness is light or dark
- It's lightweight (~1.4KB gzipped)

@rabiepenpm/molestias-ipsum-ea(123, {
saturation: [35, 70],
lightness: 25,
differencePoint: 50,
})
// { color: "#405926", isLight: true }
// Generate random color
@rabiepenpm/molestias-ipsum-ea.random()
// { color: "#644cc8", isLight: false }
// Generate a random color with HSL format

// { color: "hsl(89, 55%, 60%)", isLight: true }
// Generate a random color in specific saturation and lightness
@rabiepenpm/molestias-ipsum-ea.random({
saturation: 80,
lightness: [70, 80],
})
// { color: "#c7b9da", isLight: true }
// Generate a random color but exclude red color range
@rabiepenpm/molestias-ipsum-ea.random({
excludeHue: [[0, 20], [325, 359]],
})
// {color: '#53caab', isLight: true}
Generate unique color from value
Params:
-
value
(type:string|number
) -
options
(type:Object
, default:{}
) -
options.format
(type:string
, default:'hex'
): The color format, it can be one ofhex
,rgb
orhsl
-
options.saturation
(type:number|Array
, default:[50, 55]
): Determines the color saturation, it can be a number or a range between 0 and 100 -
options.lightness
(type:number|Array
, default:[50, 60]
): Determines the color lightness, it can be a number or a range between 0 and 100 -
options.differencePoint
(type:number
, defualt:130
): Determines the color brightness difference point. We use it to obtain theisLight
value in the output, it can be a number between 0 and 255
Output:
-
color
(type:string
): The generated color -
isLight
(type:boolean
): Determines whether thecolor
is a light color or a dark color (It's good for choosing a foreground color, like font color)
Generate random color
Params:

): Determines the color brightness difference point. We use it to obtain theisLight
value in the output, it can be a number between 0 and 255 -
options.excludeHue
(type:Array
): Exclude certain hue ranges. For example to exclude red color range:[[0, 20], [325, 359]]
