Introduction

This plugin validates hex-formatted rgb color strings and normalizes them to decimal rgba format. It also accepts named colors and normalizes them.

Usage

Add the metakey check/rgbcolor with an arbitrary value (e.g. "") to the key that you want to check and normalize.

Examples

# Mount a config file with the rgbcolor plugin
sudo kdb mount color.ecf user/tests/color dump rgbcolor

# Suceeds, since the value is a valid rgbcolor. Quotes are important!
kdb set user/tests/color/hex "#a1C2b3"

# Tell the plugin to validate the key and normalize if necessary
kdb meta-set user/tests/color/hex check/rgbcolor ""

# Colors are normalized to 32-bit unsigned integers
# This one is normalized to 0xa1C2b3ff
kdb get user/tests/color/hex
#> 2713891839

# Color names are supported (https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-3/#svg-color)
kdb set user/tests/color/hex "yellowgreen"

# yellowgreen is 0x9acd32ff
kdb get user/tests/color/hex
#> 2597139199

kdb set user/tests/color/hex/subcolor "#abc"
kdb meta-set user/tests/color/hex/subcolor check/rgbcolor ""

# Expanded to rgba: #aabbccff
kdb get user/tests/color/hex/subcolor
#> 2864434431

kdb set user/tests/color/hex/subcolor "#abcd"

# Expanded to rgba: #aabbccdd
kdb get user/tests/color/hex/subcolor
#> 2864434397

kdb set user/tests/color/hex/subcolor "#aabbcc"

# Expanded to rgba: #aabbccff
kdb get user/tests/color/hex/subcolor
#> 2864434431
