TermColors

Import and export between multiple terminal colour scheme formats

Many templates are sourced from the Base16-Builder.

Colors are handled using Colr.

Installation

npm install termcolors

Terminal Usage

Missing colors will be automatically replaced with the default colors.

$ termcolors -i xresources -o json < ~/.Xresources > colors.json

JS API Usage

var fs = require('fs');
var termcolors = require('termcolors');

var xresources = fs.readFileSync('~/.Xresources', 'utf8');
var colors = termcolors.xresources.import(xresources);

var iterm = termcolors.iterm.export(colors);
fs.writeFile('~/config.itermcolors', iterm);

DIY Export

Templates use doT.js.

Check the templates folder for some examples.

Usage:

termcolors.export(template, [transformer])

• template (string)
• transformer (function)

The transformer is an optional function that is passed the colors input into the template and can transform them for use in the template.

This is useful so that you don't have to use the tinycolor

Example Without Converter:

var template = 'body { background {{=c.background.hexString()}}; }'

var cssTemplate = termcolors.export(template);

Example With Converter:

var template = 'body { background: {{=c.background}}; }'

var toHex = function (colors) {
    return {
        background: colors.background.hexString();
    }
};

var cssTemplate = termcolors.export(template, toHex);

Example With Lodash Mapping:

var _ = require('lodash');
var template = 'body { background: {{=c.background}}; }'

var toHex = _.partialRight(_.mapValues, function (color) {
    return color.hexString();
});

var cssTemplate = termcolors.export(template, toHex);
